February 2003

february 1
I am hanging out with these two young English kids (I'm also an English kid), these brothers. The older one is 14 or 15 and the younger is about 12. The older one is very weird and is always doing weird experiments and things with drugs. He has some razor blade that he made himself, and he gives it to me because he wants me to cut someone with it. I don't want to and we get into an argument. We're on this weird concrete platform and he keeps trying to push me off. He has some drugs and he's trying to get the little brother to take them but I won't let him. I am at some party with a lot of kids I went to school with, especially elementary and junior high. There is this long long table of food, some of it from stores and other made by people. At one end there is this girl who keeps asking me why I won't take some of her stuff - she had made these peppermint candies - but I knew she'd done something bad to it so I made up excuses. I went down the table occasionally taking some food. At one end there are these huge chicken wings so I get one. I'm walking around school with Rose even though I'm supposed to be in class. I stop by the class but we are watching some cartoons and I don't feel like to so I leave. Rose and I are about to leave and we're waiting for an elevator when some of her friends yell at her from across the way, so she goes to hang out with them. I walk around, and keep leaving but going back to this weird haunted room/hall in the middle of the school. I'm at home and it's very early in the morning, everyone else is still asleep. On the porch I see a guy lighting some stuff on fire, some minor explosives and fireworks. I start yelling and going around the house, waking everyone else up, and call 911. They talk to me but don't come. The guy keeps doing this every morning because he's getting revenge on us for ?something? He and his wife come over and they take this car that he wants, this weird flying car. I'm watching TV and I see a commercial for Canon products (a camera or computer, something) and it has the car in it, it's flying all around and has a bunch of weird confetti and streamers all around it, up in space. Our landlord comes over because of the fires and tells us he doesn't want to rent to us anymore, and my dad calls him a cheapskate and says we don't want to rent from him anymore. I am about to make a fruit smoothie and my mom is making fun of me. I have apples, an avocado (???) and some other fruits. My mom says I shouldn't use the apple because it is going to last for a long time, but the other fruit is ripe and needs to be eaten. We get into an argument and I say she just doesn't want me to have the apple.

I'm in a PE class and all we do is either walk or skate around this track. The track is on a kind of platform and has a bunch of breaks in it you have to jump over. There are only three of us students, me and two girls ahead of me on skates. I am really lagging and being lazy. We finish our laps when the girls in front of me fall off the track and get into an argument. The teacher asks me "Are you really as innocent as you look" and I tell her probably more than she thinks. She wants to do this kind of fitness experiment, with drugs and a bunch of exercise, and she wants me to be the one to do it. So I'll consider it, she gives me this weird silver poker for the weekend. I go to a classroom where my backpack is, and there are a bunch of students there but no teacher. Just as I'm packing up this woman who is a sub comes in. A moment after her comes the real teacher, but she can't stay. They talk for a few minutes, about how they both have the same name (Wonda or Wanda) and I slip out. I'm visiting my elementary school and start talking to this guy in the hallway. We run into this guy who is a PE teacher and a coach for ? some sport. The coach is kind of a dork so we make fun of him. We are talking to this other guy, who uses a bunch of lockers at the school to keep drugs so he can sell them and shows us a bunch. I am still walking around and see a secretary at the school who tells me I need a pass, and I tell her I don't because I'm only going to be there for a little while. I'm both watching and participating in these weird wrestling matches. The first one is really gross, this very skinny but strong girl is fighting someone else and she has vomit all over herself. Then the guy I was talking to at my elementary school is fighting these two people, and he's connected to them through this string of organs. The people he's fighting are very big. Then I am fighting the same way he was, between the gross string of organs and the people I'm fighting are very small.

I'm hanging around with Dana and some other girl at a place that is school but also a health care center. I see this guy waiting in line, and he was my ex-boyfriend. I had broken up with him because he was really bad at making out, so we decide to bother him. He's waiting in line for this weird little room to see a doctor, and so I walk up to him and start groping him really stupid-like and say "See how you like it" and then leave. Then next the other girl goes by and makes fun of him. Last, Dana goes over and she tells him off and hits him. Then I'm just worried that we're going to get into trouble.

I'm on my senior trip, but instead of it being before graduation, it's a month or two after. Yet it is also in the present (real) time. The first day I was with this group of people - a couple of guys, some bitchy girl - and we were in trouble so we had to hide out and sleep in this weird boxcar with a curtain over it. We were on the trip for one day and then came back to Pittsburg for some reason, and it was a Wednesday. I had all of this Bath and Bodyworks stuff I kept misplacing in the living room and while looking I was thinking, "We're not getting back until Friday afternoon so I won't be able to go to bowling." For the trip you can go on the bus or drive with people, and I'm driving there with Michelle, Maria, Mark and some other girl. On the way we have to stop at this checkpoint and there is a metal detector. Instead of being something you walk through, it's this weird ladder you have to stand on. I am reluctant to do it but I finally get on the ladder and some guy is sitting on one of the rungs like a seat. The ladder tells me [yes it talked] that I eat too much butter. There is a whole big group of people and there is this one very short girl who comes up and hugs me and tells me that I have a beautiful voice. On the trip, there is this girl who has brought her pet bird with her. It is very cute, purple and red, but I get annoyed because she keeps putting it close to my face and telling me to take it, but I think it's going to bite me. She keeps doing it though so other people begin to yell at her. I'm in my documentary class and we're all giving our info, like phone numbers and such, and mine is something like 531-2131. Some of the others are worried about giving out their numbers. I'm in some class and we're having a contest where we're given a drawing of an outfit, and we have to draw the head to go with it. There is this one girl who is really good but I don't like her so of course I want to beat her. But everytime I try to do a drawing I mess up and make the head really weird, like too big or small. I am also angry because I want to win one of the prizes. The prizes are these vases filled with flowers and water, but something was in the water that turned it to gel so everything stayed perfect.

I'm at this grocery store very late at night (or early in the morning). It's run by my grandmother and these two younger guys. I'm ready to leave and I decide to take one of those big unsliced salamis, some chips, and crackers. She says it's OK but she wants me to share it with other people. She leads me into the back, and there's this hallway leading to a bunch of different rooms, all pretty dark and filled with people who are living there. After, she gives me a bouquet of magnolias. I'm at my grandparents house with my brother and Rose, and it's night. We say we're going to walk but we don't want to so we get a ride. By that time it is daylight and on one of the side streets, there is this woman standing in her yard, yelling and waving her arms at us. We go past and we see a bunch of firetrucks up above and I think "Please, not our house" and luckily it isn't. There is some kind of wedding party that is in my front yard. There are a lot of bridesmaids and lots of girls dressed up as angels and cheerleaders. Rose is excited to see it and she piles everything (our backpacks and purses) onto me to go over, and I fall onto my back. I go with Rose to this auditorium where there is going to be some concert (Weezer?) held. A few people are sitting in the back row but otherwise its empty, and we sit in the front. She gets up and goes to do something, and while she's gone the whole place fills up. A couple of rows appear in front of where I am and there are a couple of girls there talking. They both have issues of Detail magazine (one is either five or ten months old and one is the most recent) and they trade. The place is all crowded and I feel weird so I leave. I see my dad and I tell him that I feel drugged, as if someone pumped something into the air, and he agrees. He doesn't want to leave but I convince him and when we exit, its as if we're exiting our house. We get into the jeep but I have to climb into the passenger seat through the window because it's blocked by ?a fence?

This big, white dog is across the street barking at this cat so I yell at him from the front door. The dog races over and I start yelling and shut the screen door. He just stands on the porch and keeps barking. His owners, a man and a woman, are with him. The woman stands on the stairs and tries to get the dog to stop. The man is standing off to the side and behind a wall, and he is making all of these weird symbols with his hands that are freaking me out.

I'm in drama class and Bret Easton Ellis is there as a guest speaker. I'm just sitting there and Kristine comes and hangs out with me for awhile. There are these two guys handing out fliers for a short termjournalism class that's going to be held on Christmas Eve. It's going to last two hours and is worth two units. My family and I are driving to the airport very late at night. It had been raining but it wasn't anymore, though the streets were still pretty wet. The ground is also covered with these big white sheets. At the airport, we have to check in inside this big, crowded room. The rest of us stay in the back and sit down while my dad goes up to the desk. He had some bag with him and a lot of the stuff had fallen out. My mom has these two little kids, a boy and a girl, with her that belonged to one of her friends. There is this very nosy woman at the airport asking questions about them, like if we're going to adopt them. I'm thinking about some Dear Abby column I read and I tell the woman, "Don't you think you're getting too personal?" And she says "Maybe, blah blah blah blah." I'm exploring the airport (which is now also a mixture of Kaiser and a boat) with this guy and this chick. There are a bunch of weird passages and elevators that go sideways as well as up and down. We find a secret passage in this weird cupboard. You climb in and there is a very small staircase that you can climb up to a main room. It has a window so we can see a bunch of people (crew members mostly) out on the deck of a boat. I put my glasses on this weird table even though I know I'll forget them. We get out of there and I realize my glasses were in, so I just reach back in with my arm and get them because the place has shrunk. We open the cupboard again and now it's filled with a bunch of candy, weird dolls and beaded necklaces. The guy begins to freak out because it is stuff his family has sent to him, and he is convinced his family is very weird and bad. I'm at home with my mom, my sister and ?someone else? My mom had this really old horror movie she wants to watch. It's called "Dracula" and directed by someone with the first name Erghis, Engis or Eggis. I don't want to watch it in my room because I'm afraid of spirits getting out, or something bad happening.
