t-p those dolls look terrifying...
Enough to give me nightmares.
Actually last night I dreamed something to do with wearing my glasses instead of contact lenses all day.
Then it was my great aunt's birthday except we hadn't planned when we were going to visit her so I was worried she'd been waiting all day (and it's weird because we've never visited her as a family - in fact, as far as I know, I'm the only one of my siblings to have visited her at her house).
And then, let me just say that I hate having dreams about ex-girlfriends.

The next thing I remember (it may have been a different dream, but in memory it feels like the same one), I was with my mum, another relative (my grandma perhaps), and - oddly enough - strina from these very boards, who I've never even met! ... We were in a rather dangerous situation, living under a Nazi regime and had just been stopped for questioning by some sort of officials/secret police. I was somehow managing to answer their questions in a way that I was confident would satisfy them, but then they turned to strina and asked her what sort of music she liked. She took the violin part of one of the Schoenberg string quartets out of her violin case and started playing it defiantly, and refusing to lie to the men who were interrogating us.
 When we do meet you'll have to tell me if I'm like I was in your dream! Somehow the stubborn defiance of authority combined with a poor sense of self-preservation strikes a chord - although fails to take into account my craven fear in the face of weapons. But playing Schoenberg - hmm, I haven't done that in about 9 years. Did I have gut strings? Was my playing excruciating enough to drive the thugs away? Had some vivid if unremarkable dreams while I was away. Quite gentle, almost mundane, about people I like being happy, relaxed and smiling. |

...and something to do with 2B pencils which was actually very useful, because when I woke up I remembered that I had a whole collection of them at work. So I grabbed on this afternoon. |

Are you sure they were 2B's HH? It's just that I was thinking of Hamlet's dilemma...
You know, the question about the cigars?

I remember that my brother had a sheet of bizarre Oxford entrance exam questions pinned up in his room when I was a teenager, which included '"Happiness is a cigar named Hamlet", what is happiness?'. Imagine my surprise/glee when I sat my Oxford entrance exam and discovered that question on the General Studies paper. (Imagine my dismay when I opened my translation paper...) I'd have thought 2H was more apt. I have tried writing music with a 2H pencil (I'd bought it by mistake :S) because it was the only thing I could lay my hands on at the time. After about ten minutes I walked half an hour into town to buy a new 2B pencil because I just couldn't cope any more! |

After about ten minutes I walked half an hour into town to buy a new 2B pencil because I just couldn't cope any more! I think I've got a bit of a stationery fetish (well, I know I have) because I have an insane quantity of pencils. I bought a box of 2Bs from Cass art in Kensington for a very agreeable price so I'm rarely more than a couple of yards away from one in my house. And for my art foundation course we had to buy a set of pencils ranging from 8B to F. The 8B is insane - you can draw a line about 2 inches long before you have to sharpen it again. It's just a stub now. But then my spare room (or studio when I'm feeling poncy) is absolutely rammed with art materials so it's hardly surprising. It's hard to say which came first, the artistic bent or the stationery fetish. Oh gosh, we went to the pencil museum in Kendal in the summer! Very small, quite overpriced, but interesting in its own peculiarly specific way. And a "free" pencil for all. |

The first voice has previously restricted itself to monosyllabic utterances concerning the state of the soul belonging to Charlemagne Palestine.
Perhaps the second voice is that of Charlemagne Palestine.
Someone somewhere in my dreams last night was talking about Charlemagne Palestine... I also dreamed that I had someone to stay in my room, which was somehow transported to my Durham college, where students were attempting to sneak in (with food) late at night without the porters catching them. For some reason, I ended up with a lot of tomatoes in my room which I started to throw between the slats in my blinds. I finally got up to shut them, worrying that one of the students had crept into my room in order to elude the porters, but when I reached them they had turned into curtains which were already drawn. As I reached over to use the moonlight as a rudimentary flashlight in order to set my mind at rest that I was in fact alone in my room, the light shone on the face of my visitor, who I had entirely forgotten. He swore. I woke up. (And no, I can't remember who was visiting me.) |

That is easy dream to interpret.
You are finished with your Durham experience, throwing away old vegetables and old things. You are entering new period.
There is someone special that is waiting for you. You have to discover that special some one.
