May. 3rd, 2015 11:10 amLots of dreams last night, most of them hard to describe. Events always loop in my dreams, as though even in the dream I'm thinking about them and re-running them. I don't know what that says about how my mind works.
1. A hipster couple's relationship turns strained after he tells her he shot Hello Kitty. I don't know if he meant the Hello Kitty, or someone in a Hello Kitty costume, but more likely the latter. She attempts to join in and they become Hello Kitty serial killers for a while, but her heart isn't in it.
2. A young boy hiding from venomous creatures takes refuge under some giant six-legged creatures. Despite their beetle-like shape, I'm not sure if they were insect or mammalian. They were warm.
3. Something that took place in France, and involved a little girl wearing a red dress? Possibly also a crystal or glass statuette. There were also a lot of bugs in this one.
4. This one I couldn't reconstruct very well upon waking. It involved time-travel, sex, comedians (I think Jack Gilford showed up, as well as several of the Carry On crew), menus, and me trying to rearrange pictures in a room I'd claimed for myself.
5. Learning to write by studying trashy novels, to see what doesn't work, or what (despite the sneers of critics) actually does work. Most of these were in newspapers and introduced as "the next Fifty Shades of Gray." At the top of one (which I must have been reading on a tablet) was a gif of some celebrity family, taken underwater in a pool. They were all trying to stay in frame, and to keep the youngest from floating away. There was a rather sarcastic caption about how everybody ought to have this as their phone wallpaper. I scrolled down, and must have scrolled too hard, because I suddenly found myself reading a novel by Donald Trump, or someone like him. Scrolling back to the top, the swimming-pool photo had vanished.
