evil plants and my fantasies

I'm in a store that has a bunch of sculptures and things. I'm looking at them all and thinking how nice they look. The store owner starts talking with me about religion along with another man who appears to be a regular. I make a comment about how I think Christianity is dwindling, but the store owner tells me that it's actually larger than it ever was. After our conversation I decide to purchase a small plant, and she also lends me a book about her religion, which appears to be quite cultish. She says I can return it whenever I like.

When I get home there is a delivery boy that keeps buzzing at my door. I didn't order any food, so I ignore him. He keeps buzzing tho, and for some reason I find myself letting him up into my apartment. He has cheese fries, and i am gobbling them down. it occurs to me that they might be poisoned. i am just rambling on, and my rambling are so interesting that the delivery boy accidentally eats from fries too. Suddenly he passes out b4 me, confirming that the fries were poisoned. I decided i should drag him into the hallway and lock the door so that he isn't in my house when he wakes up. Since i ate more fries than he did, he would wake up b4 me. however, just as i drag him into the hall i pass out b4 i am able to lock the door!

He wakes up and starts to rummage through my house to steal things. however, i have nothing of value, so he is forced to steal things like my oven mitts and tea towels to make it worth the effort. this makes him swear profanities and as he says, "Christ almighty" and other religious swear words, my plant begins to grow and entangles him, trapping him there. the plant also grows out the window and into the floor below. a little gurl doing homework complains to her mom that the neighbours are not trimming their plants again, and the mom gets upset and calls the police.

the plant is growing towards me and is about to entangle me to when the police arrive and chop up the plant and arrest the thief. As I come to, i say "thank god" which make s the plant start to grow again. out of experimental interest, i say thank you to the police, and the plant does not grow. it seems that talking about god makes the plant grow out of control.

As the police are cleaning up the plant and chopping it into pieces, a seed disguises itself as a gram of weed. a male roommate comes by and stashes it in a junk drawer. later on i go into the basement where i do my crafts and there is also a small change room which is magical an the three shower stalls each contain a fantasy of mine. in this dream they are all women. the one that wins out is a plump and sexy black haired women that is all over me and pressing her soft body into myn.

then i suddenly fall through this big movie screen which brings me to another dimension. I am in toronto, except that there is a sky train. It's raining really hard. I need to get on the sky train and am running for it so that i dont miss it. I have a deja-vu from another dream where i was doing the exact same thing but in a sunny amusement park. in the other dream the platform had no safety rails and when the train took off i was afraid that i'd fall off the edge, but i did not. in this dream i was runny to catch the train, which also suddenly took off. there were not safety rails and because this time it was raining, i couldn't stop in time and i DID end up falling off the edge!

i was falling for a long time, long enough to think "wow, i actually fell off the edge" and long enough to fall long enough that i started to think "gee, i've been falling for a long time now...am i going to die?" and then suddenly i landed like a bag of sand on a huge metal sheet which was part of a fairy. I suffered no inguries even tho it was a hard fall. i looked up to see two gurls who had parked here and were climbing the increasingly inclining sheet upward. there was also another person doing the same. the incline was too steep for me with the shoes i was wearing and i would just slip and fall into the water below. with some struggling i propped myself behind this protruding metal thing that came out of the sheet and had a handle for me to hang onto.

just in time too, because the big metal sheet was actually a fin of the fairy, and as it tilted vertically those girl fell to there death in the water below. the fin started to raise and i thought it was raising me to safety deus ex machina style, but it then went even faster plunging into the water below. i was hanging on tight, but was just going deeper into the water, and decided i must let go. i held my breath as i waited to float to the surface. but i wasnt' even sure if was floating to the surface. it was a long time, but when i did, the 'surface' was that big white screen from the fantasy room. there stood my fantasy gurl who came to sweetly dry me off.

while she is doing this, a delivery man comes to the change room and knocks on the door. i dont want the man to see my fantasy woman, so i wait till i think she passed behind me, when actually she is standing behind me. i open the door and the delivery man sees my fantasy and says "oh, i-i'm sorry, i'll just leave the package upstairs" and he runs off. i turn to the gurl and she gives me an innocent smile. the door closes and fades to black.

meanwhile, the delivery man unwraps my package and places it in front of my apartment. it's a fishman's hat. with little decoys and hooks in it. the seed that disguised itself as a gram of weed had by now turned into a spool of white thread and came out of the drawer and sewed feathers into the hat so that i would think it's beautiful. when i came upstairs, i did indeed find it beautiful, but the white thread was not sewn in well. i looked in the junk drawer and found a spool of white thread. i put the hat on my head and went to the basement to fix the hat.

as i was threading the needle amanda came down stairs and said, "thank god i found you" with this the thread began to grow from the hat and started to entangle me. i threw the hat onto the table. "we have to burn all the thread" i said. amanda pulled out her lighter and began burning the threads from the hat. when the spool realized what we were doing it tried to escape up the stairs. i caught it but it was slipping and i wrapped it tightly around my hands until my hand was turning purple. the string was strong and was trying to pull me up the stairs, and i had to step on the string and then wrap it around my hands. once i had collected the whole thing amanda and i decided to burn the whole hat as a precaution. we put the spool of thread into the hat and burned it all. we watched it until it was nothing but black ash.

when i went back upstairs there i saw the cult book laying beside the empty plant pot. i decided i really didn't want to read that book. i went back to the store which was closed at that time, but had a book shelve with many books on it with a sign that said, 'return whenever you like', i suddendly felt guilty about not reading the book, and opened a page to read. but it was so fluffy and lacking substance, that i closed it and placed it on the shelf.

the end!

scents, slides, and slugs.

There were many people in this old house, many of them seniors. There was some Avon perfume samples going around and everyone was smelling them. I smelled a sample myself and the smell was so divine that it made me excited and i wanted to jump around and move, and i was smiling, it was a great high, and i found that many others were feeling the same, and a mambo line started. I really felt like marching. The perfume was just such a wonderful scent that i wanted to express my joy by marching. And apparently so did everyone else. Hoards of seniors began marching out the door and into the cold wintry night. sleek ice covered the ground and this oddly struck me as unwise. as much as I wanted to march, and oooohhhh the urge was so strong to keep on marching right out that door, i forced myself to resist for the good of all the seniors.

i could not help them on my own as i could not resist the urge to follow for too long, so i didn't stick around to see which way they marched. instead i ran upstairs to amanda and lucas who lay in bed just lazying about chatting. i urged them to help me to see which way they were going, but they didn't rise and just smiled and stared. i was so angry because they didn't understand the urgency so i accused them of being uncaring heartless ppl. finally, they acted to help me, but not because of my protests, but only because they saw that i was truly concerned. much like parents checking the closet for monsters for a nervous child they agreed to check the back while i checked the front. sure enough i saw the seniors marching off. just as amanda came to join me, she saw them march like tin soldier's around an icy corner.

"Look!" amanda pointed to an elderly flying through the air. he landed perfectly from his projectile trajectory onto a slide formed with ice. as on a luge, he slid quickly out of site to an unknown destination. again, an elderly flying through the air and landing on the slide. this time we saw the source: a small yellow and black catapult behind a snow fort. We ran to the slide careful not to fall sliding away and tried to capture the elderly as they came. we obstructed their course and lay them to the side where they remained in their zombie like state. only after saving three seniors did the person operating the catapult notice.

Slowly, the driver came around the fort. the catapult mechanism had been left behind but the driver remained inside the the central peice, driving it like a mini tank. the top hatch was open and as i climbed up on top of the machine, i looked in to see a living baby doll opperating the machine.

'stop!" amanda shouted, "it's too dangerous".
"It's a baby!" i called back.
"What?" amanda wasn't sure she heard that right but i didn't repeat myself.
"I have to kill it!" I continued.
"You can't kill babies" she protested.

I was determined. It was evil. I stuck my foot in to crush it. In response the living baby doll spun the machine wildly round and round to try and shake me off, but i was still on that buzz, and held on tight. i pushed my foot in to try and crush it as amanda watched in horror.

i wasn't sure if the baby was dead, but the machine had stopped moving. With out any words between us, amanda and i decided that we couldn't risk trying to go down the slide. we would want to walk it, but slippery as it was we would fall and meet the same doom as the elderly b4 us. we collected the three seniors we'd saved and brought them into the house for some soup to warm up.

inside there was a boy, and the remaining residence we gathered around him. he was putting leaves inside a small box which contained a slug. but this was no ordinary slug and really stood out to me as THE object of the dream. it was two inches long, and bright white with grey patches, the way a cow might have. it was rather cartoony and had a cute face and little alien like antennae. "where did you get that from?" i asked.

The boy told a story to us all:

On the south end of the river it is already summer, and every morning i go there to swim. usually i swim along the shore up stream and float back home with the current. There is a rock at one point in the shore which forms a groove. Most of the time i will sit there and take in the scenery for a few moments. This morning when i stopped there, i saw two slugs. One was an ordinary slug, and was the first one i saw. it was on a leaf and was crawling to the edge of it. the further it crawled the more the leaf drooped, until the weight caused the leaf to detach from the stem and it fell into the water and was carried away. The second slug was on the rock, and was this magnificent thing. It was just so beautiful that i wanted to take it home and show everyone. i put my hand out and it crawled onto my hand. at first was worried that it was a leech and would suck my blood, but it didn't and i found it friendly. I kept my hand above water and floated back to the cottage, and put it in this box, but now i'm not sure what leaves to feed it to keep it alive. do you know?

I looked at the slug, and had never seen any thing like it in my life. "no," i said.
