Fuck did i ever have strange dreams last night. One part i was going down a flight of stairs in tower one of the world trade center (my uncle worked for Cantor Fitzgerald as an investment banker for over 20 years and I lived in New york during the summers during high school). I was coming down the stairwell from the 104th floor and made it to the 44th when all of a sudden, at the bottom of the stairs, right up on the edge of the final stair, was an elevator door. So there was no way of escaping...I just had to wait. I don't think there was much significance to the dream itself really, #44 is my hockey number, 4 is my favourite number, and i am a pretty patient guy so i didn't really mind the wait...but i knew i was fucked. I think I my brain just tapped into memories of new york and the trade center while i was dreaming. I suppose the feeling of beign trapped like that or reaching a limit , or knowing limits is something that can precipitate out of it but i'm pretty aware of my everyday environment anyway. Unless of course, I lie to myself and am really naive.
I switched to being vegetarian recently (i switch back and forth every few years.....) and i think it is having a profound effect on my psyche. Perhaps it only reveals itself and manifests into strange dreams. The copious amount of pot smoking probably helps too.
Anyway, WINTER!!!!
Winter starts officially today at 12:35 (thank you hot girl from the weather channel). BTW, the weather channel and Mile Davis are usually my background distraction while I study. Kind of Blue is probably the greatest record ever made....and certainly is the best studying record for me.
Anyway, the amazing thing about today and the announcement of Winter is that after today the days begin to get longer in North America. The sheer knowledge that we are gaining a little smidgeon of daylight each day gives me solace.
Not much happening over the next couple of days....a dinner here, and Festivus (I already have my aluminum pole).
I got the girl in my Anatomy class into hanging out. She's the typified smart cool girl in my class who is difficult to get to know (guarded et cetera) but once you crack her, she's into pretty much everything and very openminded. Anyway, she's coming over so we can chill out in bed and read books. I'm thinking something short to begin with...liek short stories by Raymond Carver....or the comic "THE WATCHMEN".
