I got the apartment I looked at yesterday. Checked out a different one this morning that was tiny and more expensive, so I decided to go with the cheap one with no bathroom. It won't be too bad. I can always use the window if I have to.
I've been having crazy dreams lately. Two nights ago, I dreamt my mom and I deduced that my uncle had kidnapped this rich lady. So we tried to trick him into confessing like my hero Vincent D'Onofrio does in Law & Order: Criminal Intent. Except it didn't work, so my mom was like "Dude, we know you did it," and he started crying and two guys jumped on him and pinned him.
Then last night, I had a really awesome one. I was a teenager and had a girlfriend. Her friend was like this really wild and crazy girl and made us do stupid things. We were messing with this teacher, then we stole her car. But my girlfriend's dad jumped on the hood and the cops stopped us. So me and her friend got sent to this crazy religious juvie center, but my girlfriend got off because her dad was rich. So her crazy friend was seen as the ringleader, and she got in the most trouble and was sent to the high security part of the juvie with the really tough girls. I didn't really like her, but I could tell she was hurting, so I stole a set of keys and started sneaking into her room every night to talk to her. Then we got really close and started cuddling a lot, but it was totally not sexual. It was weird. Then there was this whole other aspect of the dream where there was this magical tree in the juvie's yard and these people were like making lemurs and chameleons appear by throwing sticks of incense onto the ground. And there was also an unruly goat that was being rehabilitated at the center, and I found it in the tree trying to eat a bird's nest.
No, I am not making this up. But I definitely think I can get a story out of that last one. Not so much about the tree and the goat, but about the guy and his girlfriend's friend who he sorta hates developing a friendship in the detention center.
Then today, I went back to sleep after checking out the apartment at 10:30. When the apartment manager called me at 2:00 to tell me I passed the credit check, I was half asleep and dreaming I was making out with someone. And I was actually acting it out. When the phone woke me up, my hands were like floating in the air where her hips were and my mouth was open. I bet it looked absolutely ridiculous. It's funny, I never have sexual dreams.
I got my U-Pass today. Awesome. No more having to pay $3.50 a day for the honor of having a job.
Edit, Tuesday 6PM: Not enough for another full entry, but I just realized that I'm moving in like two days and haven't even begun to pack. I work tomorrow. So I gotta stay home instead of going to my friend's in Tosa. This week is gonna suck.

I'm not sure if it was acutally 2hrs but it was close. They are an amazing live band and if you can get to the shows in Chicago I completely recommend it. It would be very much worth whatever hassle it would be to get down there.
