i'm half awake, and eons behind on the polyvore train. that's neither here, nor there. i decided that i want to wear patterns, have a crazy cake, wear lots of eye makeup, text people, rock flat shoes, and drink arizona tea(?) on my birthday. it's going to be a party, and i promise that you are invited.
for the past few weeks or so my dreams have been drizzled in wacky sauce. my dreams are usually pretty normal and mundane. like, i get them mixed up with real life all of the time. lately it's been, um, different. dude, i couldn't make this up if i tried. instead of trying to explain these sleepy time adventures, i will indulge you with a taste. an amuse bouche of amaris' resting brain. ha ha ew that sounds gross! but yeah, some standout bits include:
* the ocean at night with actual stars in the water. it was beautiful.
* consoling a crying heath ledger by talking to him about ponds cold cream.
* having my personal space invaded by jude law.
* arguing with my boyfriend about porn. explaining to him that alt porn is better via an elaborate slide show.
* hanging from ceiling rafters with my friends in order to avoid being killed by jason. said ceiling rafters eventually turned into seats at a quiz show. jason was the host.
* running into the fat jew at cinnabon in the mall. he was really cool, and explained to me that he only peddles gooey cinnamon goodness for fun.
* turning into a big nosed teenage boy who battles laser wielding dinosaurs in the girl's bathroom.
yep, that's the kind of stuff i dream about. scout's honor.
my mom has one of those dream encyclopedias, and i really should consider giving it a look. or maybe i should see a psychic. i don't know?
i'm beginning to think that i have insomnia. it's like 1 a.m. and i'm wide awake and bored. shit, i even signed on to aim. oh wait, i've been known to do that from time to time anyway. but yeah, i found this weird online survey about dreams. nice change of pace. my dreams are always super duper strange.
ahem.
Do you have the same dreams over and over again? it's been known to happen.
Have you ever saved someone’s life in a dream? not that i can remember.
Do some of your dreams come true? sometimes. it's pretty weird.
Has a dream ever scared you so badly that you couldn’t go back to sleep? omg yes.
Do you often fly in your dreams? no, but swimming is sometimes involved.
What about fall? yes! and then my legs get all restless and nuts and i wake up.
Ever had a dream where you or someone else dies? only close calls.
What about a natural disaster (tornado, flood, hurricane)? my dreams are often windy, and sometimes there's rain. but no natural disasters.
Out of all the dreams you remember, which is your favorite? the one where i was i at a beach at night and there were stars in the water.
Most puzzling? the one where i wound up hiding in a muddy bush, whispering to a friend.
Funniest? it escapes me at the moment, BUT i have woken up laughing before. it was awesome :)
Have you ever dreamed that you were lost? no?
Ever had super abilities (invisibility, super strength)? not really.
Do you ever dream of dinosaurs? when i was a kid i used to day dream about dinosaurs. instead of imaginary friends i had imaginary dinosaurs.
Do you ever confuse your dreams with reality? ALL OF THE TIME. i'm often prone to saying/thinking things like, "did that really just happen?"
Do you ever dream about sex? ha ha ha aw shucks. of course, but my dreams seem to be a lot more sublime than real life.
ha ha lame surveys :)
ah. i'd very much like to have some kind of sleepover party (snuggie party?), so i can hear all about other people's weirdo dreams the next day.
right now i'm going to go continue re-reading "running with scissors." right now i keep listening to this:
