Thee Oh Sees. I guess actually they are not my favorite band, they are my favorite band who is currently putting out albums. My favorite band is probably Pavement, even though recently I am realizing they recorded tons of stuff I have never heard.

But was that the band in the dream?

yes.

You're doing it wrong. You're supposed to say "it was the band, but somehow the drummer was a brontosaurus. With a cowboy hat. And at the same time, he was Warren Buffet.

A couple nights ago I dreamt that I was Anthony Bourdain, shooting No Reservations somewhere in the Pacific Rim.  I was suddenly having a terrible heart attack, and as I was dying I thought, "Hey, my life has been pretty awesome, so I'm okay to die."  Odd.

Last night I dreamt that my husband and I had rented this awesome Beach house right on the ocean.  We had just put the dog out in the back yard, and then a tsunami hit, and water starting coming in the windows and I could see the dog bobbing around in the water.  The water was rough and it was clear the dog was going to drown, and I screamed at my husband to save him, but he said there was nothing he could do - he was good as dead.  I told him if he wasn't going to save him I would, so I got some rope and went out into the water, but then I found a boat and we took the boat over and saved the dog.  Moments later, people were all spashing around in the water like it was the beach again, even though everything was flooded and the water levels were still crazy high.  I felt this impending sense of doom that more bad things were to come, especially more water, but kids were playing with beach toys and everyone was splashing and having a good time right outside the beach house window, with water right up to the building a couple feet deep.

I dreamt that my wife, my stepdaughter, and, my mom, and I were at a show co-headlined by U2 and Lady Gaga. Clint Mansell opened and played the drums as part of a rockin' band. I griped to my mom that U2 sucked now and the last time they were good live was the Elevation tour. During their first song the jumbotron listed some ills of the world, including a government travel warning stating that eating certain polluted Haitian game birds could cause liver bloat. One should let the liver bloat before taking the recommended megadose of vitamin D. For their second song, Bono held an acoustic guitar while a canned recording of a woman singing Margaritaville in Spanish played. Mid-song, he took a backwards swan dive and landed on his back on a lower platform. A female dancer spun off the stage, hitting her hip on the platform and falling to the floor.

Awesome. Reminds me of this.

Jorge's dream immediately reminded me of a dream I had once where we all saw Paul accidentally kill himself by swan-diving backwards off of a waterfall.

Did we see it because he posted photos posthumously?

no, we were all hanging out together.

of course, we all immediately got on the board to talk about what we had just seen.

Yes. I thought of that this morning--a little earlier in that scene.There was the same slow recognition of a familiar pop song sung in a foreign language.

yikes, a dream where my girlfriend was trying to get me to move in with her and I told her that I don't trust her since she dumped me that one time.

Well.

That's a good reason to doubt.

about two weeks into dating the woman who would become my missus, she broke up with me because her friends thought i was wrong for her. a week later she contacted me and apologized and asked for another shot. that was thirteen years ago.

granted, it was an easy reason to break things off at an early point, and a damned good apology. spend some time thinking about it and figure out how much you actually do trust her. you'll know where to go from there.

In real life, I do not think the issue is not trusting her. I just feel really ambivalent about things these days. I wish we saw each other a lot more, but we have jobs/school with conflicting hours. When we do see each other, it tends to be late at night. We make out, and then sleep. Or, we watch a movie and drink a beer or two, and she falls asleep on my couch. In a month she is leaving for the whole summer. She did not really try to find a summer job in STL at all, because she thinks Chicago is the greatest city in the world, and would never consider living anywhere else for any reason. She is also one of those weird people who really likes being around their family all the time.

mostly, though, that dream was that we were driving around the city looking at awesome buildings. Which is what I wish we did a lot more.
