PBS & Nacthmares

I wonder if I'll ever do anything worthy of being photographed by Annie Leibovitz. I watched a documentary or biography or biomentary about her last night. It was on PBS and I missed the first 30 minutes or so but got majorly sucked into it fast. It just struck me how amazing portraits are and how they can capture such hidden things about someone OR sometimes how vacant someone is too. I have no examples of what I'm talking about because I'm lazy so, I don't know what more to say except you should watch PBS and try to catch it.

On another note. B sharp. hahahahahahah. Whoa. Right after I made that bad joke my onion bagel turned on me a little. That'll teach me to be a hack.

As I was saying before being so rudely interrupted, I had a hell of a night of dreams last night. All having to do with being stranded on a Lost style island and not being sure if I wanted to get rescued or not. It was one of those dreams that seems to go on for hours and hours and has a major epic feel to it. And it wasn't paradise at all. We were being chased and had to go for food in shifts.......(as I'm typing this please know I DO realize how exactly like the t.v. show Lost this all is).....and there were these numbers....just kidding. Still, I was feeling really conflicted about the impending rescue. I thought about how much I loved all my island mates and worried that once we got back to normal life we'd cease knowing each other. That notion broke my heart in the dream but I also really wanted all these friends to be safe.

Eventually a lasso came out of a helicopter (not sure why the a-hole couldn't just land and let us in but whatever) and pulled us up one by one. AND I was right. We did lose touch and it was never the same.

At the very end of the dream I was living in a cabin in the woods with some co-workers and was trying to get ready for work when the toilet exploded in my face and I was soaked and the floor was flooded. I went outside and said to one of the co-workers...."now I'm all urinated and can't go to work!" and she said "no time for that. a storm is coming." and I looked up towards the forest and the sky was night time black in the distance. It ended with me saying..."uh...I'd SAY a storm is coming alright."

That kind of thing always freaks me out. I don't even know if I believe in future telling but I do believe in t.v. and movies and they would say that was a bad sign dream. I'm going to just take it as a message that some snow is on the way. That makes me feel more at ease.
