Between 4:30AM and waking up at 7, I dreamt that it was yesterday and I was wandering the neighborhood and seeing cosplayers and getting excited for Tekko, and then I saw AL-san and arranged to go to the con with her. And as we were hanging out, I ran into Dan C-C and I think Rich from Quiz Bowl, which was probably my mind remembering that I have to write those questions and get them in.

040710 Something particularly notable...

I dreamt that I dreamt that Soul Eater 17 came out.
:|
And it totally appeared in my (school) mailbox without my ordering it. So I squealed and started reading it right away. I don't think much of what I know about it so far actually showed up... my brain made no attempt at the upcoming battle between M. and J. I was reading something about Medusa trying to take over Stein's body (from chibi form: minus ten points), and for some reason she wound up in Maka's instead. D: And then she... bit Maka's finger off? To make her bleed to death? Dunno really how to deal with that other than "Thank goodness Kim was right there," which she was, for an undisclosed reason.
It was around this time that I explained to my roommates that I was very excited, because I hadn't expected it to be out for another three months and hadn't even realized that it was out until it appeared in my mailbox. Which made me start thinking that it might have been a dream, because I certainly hadn't ordered it, so then I combed my memory for exactly what had happened between interesting pages and failed to come up with anything, and I realized that the cover wasn't exactly in the style of most SE covers, so I realized I was dreaming. Which caused me to "wake up" into another dream. And tell several people about what I'd been dreaming.


I am fairly certain that I'm actually awake right now. XD

031510 I hate swimming...

In my dream last night, I was going to some kind of swimming lesson. My sisters were there. It was not at any pool I recognized. There was some kind of... Bible study aspect to it as well. I got a facebook message saying that I should go to the next Esther's Circle because it was a celebration for someone's birthday and they thought I was only an hour away, not, you know, halfway across the country.

On Saturday morning, I woke up too early and then fell back asleep. I had those really weird dreams in which I'm exhausted but try to get up and go about my normal life as if really waking up. There were a few layers to them... in one of them, I was listening to my iTouch and it glitched and got stuck playing "victor", which would be creepy. Was creepy. Add to that the fact that I couldn't seem to move, and I'm pretty sure that I was convinced in my dream that I was hallucinating. ...I think I may need to stop writing Stein. oO I also dreamt that Mom came in and tried to wake me up, but I couldn't respond and couldn't move. Yeah. These dreams are so weird.

030510 Riiiiight.

Two sets of things I remember.
First, I woke up around what was probably 4:30. Twenty-ish minutes later, as I'm lying there expecting my alarm clock, I actually check the time and see that it's 4:52. Whut. So I get out AAI to play myself back to sleep. As a testament to how well it worked, I was soon under the impression that, as I played, someone mentioned Markus Zusak's The Book Thief and I am the Messenger--I think it was Edgeworth listing them as his favorite books, great taste that man, especially BT which everyone should read and WORSHIP--and also that there was this guy (Zato?) with a GIGANTIC sprite. And the action wound up back on an airplane. Nuts to that. I'm playing case four. Take me out of the courthouse and I'll shoot you and laugh. 8D

In the other thing I remember, which happened after I'd woken up, saved my game, put it away, and fallen back to sleep, I was in a restaurant with a large group of friends--probably Japanese class friends. Lai-san was there. We ordered our food--pasta and ice cream (separate, of course). Half of the pasta and ice cream came, partially served on Styrofoam plates. The ice cream was laid out on these Styrofoam plates in half-scoops and covered with a metal dish cover so that it wouldn't melt before we got to dessert (...yeah, that'll work). But I was on the half of the table that never got our food. Eventually I leave on a bicycle. Except halfway through this bike ride my brain decides that (a) I'm Edgeworth, and Bratziska is there and (b) I'm playing a video game from extremely realistic first-person perspective. I'm having trouble controlling the game camera and the bike at the same time--wind up riding backwards--so I try to press the L button to center the camera behind me as it would in Twilight Princess. Well that just makes me fall over. Franziska comes up to mock and whip me, but I just lie there on the ground. Then my alarm goes off.

These sound like good signs that I've been playing too much AAI, but also note that I keep dreaming about getting the new Soul Eater volume. Like I dreamt two nights ago that I received it. Argh. It was supposedly shipped two days ago, but the USPS tracking thing still says they've received notification to expect the package for shipping. Um. D: Googling "USPS tracking glitch" reveals people having similar problems, so I suppose it's pretty safe to guess that it's been shipped and is nearing my house. Please arrive soon! There's so much information waiting for me. About Justin. About how Stein's doing. About Spartoi. About Soul becoming a Death Scythe, almost certainly going by what I stupidly read on TV Tropes, and about Death Scythes in general (also by what I read on TV Tropes). Also by what I read on TV Tropes: about Maka's soul, some reproductive details about the different races, some interaction between Crona and Medusa. DEAR POSTAL SERVICE STOP STANDING BETWEEN ME AND THESE THINGS.

030210 How did it become March??

Gosh darn. I accidentally closed this page when I was almost finished with the entry. So we're gonna ignore the "two nights ago" and "snippet from last night" sections and just go with what I remember best:
I was outside my house with a pug. The pug's master had just died. The car that the master had driven (more like an Alleged Car: it was an odd shade of yellow, very low to the ground, rather old-school, and falling apart) was being driven away by someone else, and the pug tried to run after it. I had to chase it through my neighbor's yards. In my dream, I was crying pretty badly. The pug was howling or crying somehow as well.

021610 Anticipation is makin' me wait~

So I remember two parts of my dream.
I dreamt that I went down to Game Stop to get my copy of Ace Investigations, which I can pick up today in the PM (that's what the text message said), but in my dream it wasn't PM yet ;;. So then I went home and read A Conspiracy of Kings, which was... not very good ;;. But only in my brain of course. I had the colors of the cover right, but for some reason it was the top half of Sophos's face showing, not the bottom. He was a total bishounen. Very girly looking (lovely eyelashes), but a pretty girl... fffff April.

021210

I only remember what I was dreaming right before I woke up. I was in some kind of class (a writing one? But it was in Thaw 208) and we were given an assignment to work on in groups. For some reason I decided to make mine a pre-a/16 Medusa.Stein interaction. To write, we went down to this area where there were sheep. And outside, beyond an emergency exit door, there was an octopus on the lawn. Yes, an octopus... Eventually I sat down with Lai-san and Sarah Gruba and talked about my story idea. Sarah Gruba pointed out that I should be careful because they definitely must have interacted at one point before then, and I said I knew--for example, re: Soul's surgery (isn't that shiny? Just look how shiny that is), and by this time I was shouting over the alarm from the emergency door, because someone had gone out through it... Oh, wait, I realized, that's actually MY alarm...
