So glad to meet you, Angeles



I decided to take up recording my dreams again after a long hiatus. I woke up three or four times last night before waking up for real, and the above is the result.

The bottom (legible) portion reads:

I was in Japan crossing the street back to where we were staying and Eddie Hoffman walked up.
"Excuse me."
"Yeah?"

"Is so-and-so on this trip?"
"I don't know who that is so I don't know."
Eddie kept walking and ran into the kid he was looking for. The kid yelled across the street that I didn't know he was there because I'm Gay! GAY! blah blah blah.

So apparently I even give off that impression in dreams. I'm not gay, I just have a dancer's body and unusually sparkly eyes.

The upper (illegible) portion reads, as best I can discern or remember:

Dr. Faustus flops horribly but just a rough night. We are all do--[I tried to scribble out my mistake but missed] going to hell. Trying to figure out if it's all worth it.

Only my parents and sister [somethingsomething]
We're all dreading if we [scribbles] excercize [scribblescribbles] someone from an overflowing ship.

[I believe the following hyphen is to indicate a new, separate dream]
--no I didn't. That was the new Pixar movie. I seated us and we had to look to find each other.

............

I hope that tickled you half as much as it tickled me.

On another note, I transfered all of my dates into my little calendar majig and finally realized how daunting my schedule is for the next few months. At the moment I'm at school all afternoon then go straight to either a Faustus performance or Shady Shakespeare rehearsal. In a couple weeks I'll be at work at 9, leave for school at 12:30, then go straight to rehearsal in the evenings. After that week school will be out so I'll have a little break in the afternoon. After looking more closely at my rehearsal schedule I am surprised to see that I am called almost every night despite having small roles in both shows. Rehearsal for Strega Nona starts the week after As You Like it opens which is the week that Richard III opens and also happens to be the first week of my acting camp at The Dragon. I rehearse for Strega Nona every day that I'm not performing with Shady, and then that opens the week after Richard III closes. We perform in Berkeley until Octover 4, then move to San Ramon until the 18th, and then embark on my first tour the following Tuesday. This means that I'm going to be gone for my birthday and Halloween. I'm still very excited, and I think I'm going to love travelling around with a show for the first time, but it's a little disheartening that the first week after we embark is the week that I'm likely to miss being home the most.

After that I'm home from November 23 to January 10. This will be the first time between now and then that I have a break of more than two consecutive days, which means I'll finally have time to get my wisdom teeth removed and safely recuperate.

In conclusion: holy shit.

  1. I'm glad to be on the dream boat once again! And by that, I mean I enjoy being able to read yours. I would post some myself if I ever woke up remembering any.
