Am I Dreaming?

I have a lot of dreams which range from being really disturbing to downright hilarious. The other night I had one that was really funny.

I dreamt that I was an inmate in a mental hospital. There was nothing particularly wrong with me, aside from the fact that I was crazy. In the ward where I was residing was a rather large common room. It was full of several large couches Occupied by my fellow crazy people. I walked into the room and looked around. Everybody was just sitting there, talking quietly or staring blankly at the walls. In one corner a tiny little guitar was leaning up against a couch. I saw myself too. I looked similar to how I do now, but I was wearing a knit hat very low over my eyes and a pretty cool rock star look going on.

I crossed the room, picked up the little guitar and strummed a G chord. Ever so softly and smoothly I sung out, "Would you dance if I asked you to dance? Would you run and never look back?" Suddenly I had the attention of all my fellow residents. Empty heads started nodding to the rhythm, absent minded voices chimed in, and all of the empty eyes were turned onto me. Suddenly I burst passionately into the chorus, "I can be your hero baby!" I was jumping all ofer the room, striking my rock star stance, and playing with so much feeling that it would make Enrique look reserved and half dead. Everyone in the room was swaying with the music, singing the lyrics as if they were the last words they would ever say.

I just watched One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest the other day. It's a good movie, a little disturbing though. I thought the ending could have been better.

Jack Nicholson wears a knit cap in it.

Not to combine threads here Ian, but let me show you just HOW ridiculous this song really is--

When you were Enrique in your dream, are you sure you really weren't singing this?

Would you sneeze if I asked you to sneeze
Would your nose run like a faucet
Would you smile if you saw me smiling
And would you let me eat dried snot

Would you tremble if I touched your nose
Would you laugh
Please tell me this
Now would you hock loogeys for one you loved
pick one for me tonight

I can eat your boogers baby
I can kiss away the snot
I will lick them off your fingers
I can take that crust away

Ian will like that one, although he says he's got himself off of boogers. I don't really believe it though. I'm sure when he's in his room late at night he still eats them instead of wiping them under his bed.

Nope, it's not true. I have been clean since one week before last Christmas. I went absolutely cold turkey. I will admit, I still deal with the temptations, but I have not given in to them.
