Weird dream*

 Here’s dreamy music for a dreamy entry.

I edited this to add more detail, I wouldn’t read it again if I were you. Tonight is a sleepless night…apparently…the dream is stuck in my head.

I’m just now remembering my dream I had last night and I think I watch too many horror/sci fi movies. It started in a weird version of my Aunt Kathy’s yard. A very sunny day and my Uncle Greg is sitting by the house on lawn chairs talking about something. I was drifting off staring at his yard that in the dream was split by a river a and was very stunning and beautiful. It’s hard to describe how pretty it was but imagine a Japanese rock garden with a stream going through it and you’re close. I knew that this was wrong and I realized I was dreaming as their back yard is a whole lot of dead grass and a shed the size of a small house. This happens a lot to me when you realize you’re dreaming or get to the lucid state, everything changed immediately and I forgot that I was dreaming again. So then I’m outside with large concrete walls surrounding me like a maze. One concrete wall starts to rumble and a casket sized slab slid out. There’s a metal container that sort of looked like a big lightsaber or sonic screwdriver inside. It opens and a ‘person’ is inside laying in green goo. They stand up and its skin is completely white like the Engineers in Prometheus. The voice is feminine.

For some reason I now understand that I’m the same sort of creature she is. We’re a form of human that lives for 30 years then dies. We’re bred in the lightsaber tubes and start life full grown. We’re a form of ‘police’ that maintain order in the world and police normal humans who now can live for hundreds of years. Apparently certain people were selected to have their DNA preserved for this job and I was a volunteer. The perk of this being that every ‘policeman’ has authority over the humans that live forever and we get privileges normal humans don’t.  Every time we die we’re cloned again with no memory of death or any previous life.

Anyways, the dream bumps around at this point  but a lot of time passes with just me and this girl…creature…thing and we stay in the concrete maze walking around until we lay down together to die. As we’re laying there she suddenly stands up and opens another tube, pulls the half formed body out and lays in the goo. She was tired of killing people (police officers executed penalties) and would rather try to live longer, she knew she only had a month left. The dream flashes forward and she’s back out of the goo but her body is falling apart and her mind is severely damaged. I try talking to her but she just swayed back and forth, her jaw unhinged and slackly hanging. Parts of muscle showing through her ripping skin. She falls to her knees and stumbles along the ground towards me and manages to tell me she wants to be put into another tube. I tell her no and carry her over to a patch of grass, I set her down, sit next to her and talk to her as she dies.

I have no fucking clue what this dream was about. I forgot about it all day and then it came back to me while I watched Jiro dreams of Sushi. That’s an awesome movie by the way, I really want me some Toro now.

In other news I had to deal with the crazy side of my extended family today. I don’t really feel like going into it right now but it involves an uncle trying to sue my mother and my grandmothers house. She died…20 or so years ago now and they’re still fighting over stupid shit. Well my Uncles and one Aunt are fighting my mother and three of my aunts…..yeah. Not going to write about it, it just makes me angry and I’ve thought about it too much today.

You’re all awesome people by the way. You should all live near me so we could have an awesome bar-b-que. 🙂
