sleep to dream, to dream

Thursday, September 11th, 2003

I’ve been sick for the last few days, and I haven’t been sleeping well at all. I took Nyquil the last two nights, and it didn’t do a damn thing… just to put this all in perspective. Nyquil, for god’s sakes! That stuff is supposed to mess you up in like 4 minutes! I’ve been sitting in bed night after night just trying to fall asleep. It sucks… I just sit there until around 2am when I finally fall asleep. This afternoon I started to feel better, and I had 2 free hours in the middle of the day, so I took a nap. I fell asleep in no time.
In my dream, I was sitting around talking to a few of my friends. Then, I was suddenly at a huge water treatment plant… we’re talking huge. I was helping some of the people there purify the water or something like that, it was my job to bring a certain chemical into each big tank that matched up with the kind of filtration they were doing on each section. I thought the fact that I was suddenly at a water treatment plant was weird, so I was talking to one of the workers and I was like “This is so weird, I’m dreaming right? Like, what the hell am I doing here?” and they were like “Dude how could you be dreaming? You can hear and taste and see and feel what’s going on here, right? This is real.” So I’m just like “Ok, I guess this is real.” And then suddenly I’m back talking with my friends in my dream, telling them about how the water treatment plant was real, and how I thought it might have been a dream but wasn’t. Then I woke up for real in my bed. I was so confused. Not only did I have one dream inside another, but I thought the second one might be a dream, questioned it, was persuaded otherwise, and then convinced other characters in my first dream that the second one was as real as the first. What the hell is that about?
I met this girl Danielle at the club last week. Really cute, great dancer, you know, the whole deal. She gave me her number and I called her the next day. We’ve been talking off and on the last week and she was gonna come over tonight and watch a movie or whatever with me. She said to call her at 5pm today when I was done with my computer lab hours. She said she promised to answer her phone when I called. She didn’t…. but she called when I was out of the shower. Ok, that was fine. She said she would call me when she was done getting ready so I could come pick her up. About 45 minutes later, I called her and she said that she was eating dinner and that she would call me back. She never did. I called once more tonight and left her a message. No response. I am pissed! I got myself all ready, did my hair all nice, cleaned up my room, got outfit approval from the girls on my floor, and she stood me up. So not cool. She better call me asap with an awesome excuse or something. Ugh… who does that? I hate it when people are irresponsible like that. I could never just not call someone back or not show up somewhere I’m supposed to be… how terribly that speaks of someone’s character. Pssh. I’m going to bed… I hope I can sleep well tonight.

    First off try warm milk and clearing your mind all that thinking and such.. Generally works. Why do people always use drugs to cure all ill’s? Get to the cause instead of medicating the symtoms.

    Second, I’d seriously consider going out with someone who is as lame as this girl sound, shes just gonna let you down time and time again.. look elsewhere man.
