The only dream I’ve had recently:
I fell asleep on my friend’s couch after a few days of two
hour nights.
The dream cut into my friend and I walking across the campus
parking lot, heading towards an enormous theatre that definitely does not
actually exist. We climbed a rope ladder to a balcony, and she explained she had
to pick up her artwork.
The balcony was small, 5x6’ish and was full of students
standing, waiting for nothing in particular. It wasn’t long before horrible CG
birds appeared, floating on the sides, flapping only their wing tips. We took
this as a good reason to leave, but halfway back to the dorm, I realized I’d
forgotten my boots. Once again, I climbed the rope ladder back up, retrieved my
boots, and found all of the students on the balcony laying down.
They were all Computer animation students, taking naps. In a
moment of great clarity, I commented I was taking a nap as well. I referred to
it as a “rage quit”. The students and I waxed poetic about hating life and our
major. I climbed back down the ladder, now feeling anxious that I had left my
first friends’ house without saying good bye and that I couldn’t even remember
doing so.
Then, I woke up on their couch.
