The Great Train Robbery Dream (Latin Remix)

Tuesday, January 31st, 2012

On a whim, I copied and pasted my last blog entry into Google Translate, translated it into Latin, then translated it back into English. This is what I ended up with. I find it amusing and oddly pretty. We woke up from a long, wonderful dream I want to write. Morrow was here, late 19th [...]

The Great Train Robbery Dream

Saturday, January 28th, 2012

I just woke up from a long, strange dream that I want to write down. It was the mid-to-late 19th century, after the Civil War. I was a passenger on a train heading west. On the train was a rich, cruel woman who had power over many people and used it to make them suffer [...]

Everything’s Gonna Be All Right

Wednesday, December 7th, 2011

In a dream the other night, I ran into Ian McCulloch and Will Sergeant of Echo & the Bunnymen, and we got to talking. I told them I was very jealous of their lives. They’d started their band when they were teens and have continued to do what they love all their lives. Mac and [...]

Lazy Weekend Dreaming

Sunday, December 4th, 2011

Last night, I dreamt of a horror movie. The main character was a young woman with amnesia. She worked at a rundown hotel where she was teased and berated by her boss and coworkers. The young woman was also being pursued by a mysterious middle-aged man and woman who drove a red, ’70s sports car. [...]

The Old College Try

Sunday, November 13th, 2011

I dreamt that I was in school. I was doing very well in two of my classes, but I suddenly realized I had been blowing off my other two classes for the second half of the semester and was almost certainly failing them. Instead of panicking, I pulled out the syllabi for the two classes [...]

A Dream of Thrones

Tuesday, June 14th, 2011

I dreamed of George R.R. Martin’s A Game of Thrones. Except I’ve never read the book or seen the TV series adaptation, so my mind filled in all of the blanks. But in the dream, this is how the book was. There were a group of fantasy late-medieval/early-Renaissance kingdoms constantly intriguing against each others. These [...]

The Phantom in the Dream-House

Wednesday, April 27th, 2011

One of the earliest dreams I still remember was one I had when I was still in single-digit years, probably 7 or 8. I was attending a party in a huge, labyrinthine mansion owned by an old, very wealthy family. The family was plagued by a mysterious figure known only as “the Phantom” who was [...]

I Was Only Dreaming…

Saturday, February 5th, 2011

I had a long, elaborate dream last night. That’s not unusual for me, but this dream was impossible to sum up in 140 characters, unlike a lot of my other dreams. It’s stuck with this morning, so I thought I’d blog about it. In my dream, I was hanging out with an aging rock star, [...]
