2004-05-23 - Entry 470 - TOGoS's Journal

The night before last...no the night before that...no wait I already covered that.

OK, then. The night before last I had a dream in which I was at school and there was this part where I ran into weird Matt and there was this tunnel that went between 2 buildings (or 2 parts of the same one, maybe) that was neat. Then I was holding a miniature of it in my hands. It was like a corrigated metal spiral thingy. It was twisted up like a rope, and had plugs on the ends like you would plug into the destinatoins... Later regular Matt showed up and was looking at it with us. Then I was running north past the east entrance to Glenview and some jerk was yelling at me. Then I was walking west on the north side of Greenview and maybe riding my bike or something and there were walls and a paking lot or something.

I had one dream that I don't remember if it was the night before last or just last night. I was a monkey person. Like there was this area behind the dorms and at one end lived regular humans and as you went back you found their really early ancestors. And I was one of the last one of those. So I looked like a chimpanzee.

In the dream I had last night I was playig Stronghold (or something a lot like it, anyway). I was doing pretty well. I got up for a while but when I came back the game had kept running and some enemy of mine had taken over about a third of the map. I still had a bunch of dwarves wandering around in a desert so I put them back to work. I didn't expect to win, though.

My house was all not at all my house like. Maybe more like the entrance area of Crapi 4, with the courtyard and all. There was one room near the courtyard that didn't have a roof. I was in there (that also seemed to be where I was when I was playing stronghold) and I was sitting in the corner and there was a big storm. There were these big dark grey clouds and the wind was blowing and the clouds were being blown right down into my little room (and through the floor, too). Finally, the last big gray cloud flew by and it was calm and I looked up and saw blue sky with some little puffy white clouds waaay up where they were supposed to be. I got up and I was going to go out and lay in the sun.

I went out onto the sidewalk (that was just outside my room) and went walking down towards my other room. Out in the courtyard there were a lot of other people walking along the sidewalk. There were little trees around, too. Dan and Aaron were over on the other side of a building doing something strange that I didn't understand. I stood on the sidewalk and started swaying back and forth on my ankles as if I was a steel spring.
