A travelogue of sorts: Las Vegas, May 2011

Gigi, Jenn, Jacob, Caroline. Dogs and cats, cats and dogs. Ellie (skinny dog). Taxi drives and walking. Lights everywhere and M&M's. More walking, driving around without listening to the GPS instructions. Recalculating, biatch. Tour guide. Australian men, dreams in the water, and The Beatles LOVE. Music by a pool, The Barenaked Ladies. Music on the radio, Adele's "Rumor Has It" and Bruno Mars "The Lazy Song." Sharks, turtles, and jellyfish. Max Brenner's chocolate and Red Velvet Cafe. Awesome weather, awesome friends, awesome times. Apl.De.Ap. "Is this the real Caesar's Palace?"

LOVED IT.

Vivid dreams continue: A Tibetan friend with an afro

Today I woke up while dreaming of a friend. It started out with me and my sister (the one in Cali) trying to go up a weird building. There was a broken elevator and I suggested we jumped on top of it so it could take us, since the doors weren't opening for us. She jumped first and then I realized she would get crunched at the top when the elevator got to the end and I yelled that she needed to jump out at the next level. I started climbing some stairs and got to the top. Where there were several people just hanging out. The place looked OK, but it was definitely a temp shelter of some kind. There were lots of windows and the light was lovely. I came to sit by a guy that looked Tibetan, his skin was very dark and was smiling big. He was folding his clothes (a ton of shirts with band designs!) I saw a Jimi Hendrix one and we got to talk. Then the place filled up with water. We were both on some raised platform and I looked at the water and saw flowers just under the surface and I said something about how beautiful they looked and jumped to get them. He jumped behind me and I started pulling beautiful pastel-color flowers.. there were so many of them and then we started swimming in flowers and water... i felt so happy. then we went back to the platform to find that all his cool shirts were gone! they had been stolen. I was so sad, but he didn't get mad or sad. And then... and then.... I looked at him and he had a really cool afro! like Jimi!!!

And then I woke up... tired cause I had been swimming in flowers and water for who knows how long that night.
