I dreamt last night that I was dreaming (yes, a dream within a dream) that I was in the house that I grew up in, and I walked into my father’s study. he was sitting there at his desk, and I came up to him and gave him a hug and told him I loved him so much. And he told me he loved me a lot. And then we just kept hugging, and I felt time speed up or at least it felt like days went by. Continue reading

I had just arrived in an airport in South Korea. I was talking to someone on the escalator about how everything here is made of paper pulp – hotel sheets, hairbrushes, even the walls of some of the buildings. It’s the new plastic, I remark. Then, I’m met by George Takei, who was coming to pick me up, and he hands me an enormous bouquet of parsley. He decides it’s time for pictures, so he passes off his camera and begins striking wacky poses behind me, as I brandish my parsley in confusion.

Gina sends us:

In the large room of a house I am at a telephone and there is a secretary helping me. I am looking for a referral to a psychiatrist. The person on the other end of the phone can be heard over the loud-speaker phone hook-up. 

I hear this deep voice, “Leave a message.” I ask the secretary-turned counselor what kind of work she specializes in, and she tells me, “Brain surgery, witchcraft kind of dreams – dreams that have a black magic feeling to them, but mostly physiological questions to mental problems.”

I thought that seemed interesting, but not for me. 
And then the counselor said, “They’ve made a pop song about her.” 
I said, “What?” 
And the counselor said, “Yes!” and she sang two bars of the song for me. 
I looked at her and said, “That’s from the Rocky Horror Picture Show!” 
“Yes, that’s it,” the counselor said.
