queen, sugar, visiting
1. Staying over at the Queen's mansion. She is having an estate sale where jewelry and other expensive items are laid out on lighted glass shelving with no covers over them. some riff-raff come in and openly steal some items. me and my big burly friend run after them for a couple blocks and the townspeople and i reduce them to laying on the ground except for the one with the jewels. he gets away.1b. everyone is finally gone and i fill up the Queen's sugar bowl and put it back on her table as she sleeps.2. We go to see my friend finally. She can't leave her house. Her husband and she have separate beds in the same room.

kissing, joseph talk
7-5-07
1a. i move into a house with five women who are rumoured to be generous with physical affection. i've only seen one around town. one day when i'm at home, the one i recognize from town attempts to give me a kiss. but i'm totally taken off guard, i was reading a newspaper or carrying a lot of things at the time. she's very sassy and somehow i have the impression that it was rude of me to not kiss her. (but i do want to kiss her.) the next day i'm in the kitchen again and eating dinner, something like meatloaf, something with meat, savory. she tries to kiss me with my mouth full and i still feel apologetic about it. she just walks away. finally i try to kiss her as we are standing in a doorway, but she dodges it. she acts even MORE sassy and is like 'you snooze you lose.'
1b. so i'm kind of distraught about this, confused and exasperated. i go over to see joseph and tell him about this series of events. he's very empathetic even though all he says is 'oh ariel. ' like he does.
2. we sit on a very high up bed, like a bunk bed or loft in a dim room and we have long talks about whether or not we can kiss.

tropical fish
this dream was dreamt a long time ago but it's so funny ... probably dreamt it in march of 2006.
I'm visiting Hawaii and come accross a For Rent sign on a shady street. I decide to move in. I meet with the girl who's putting the room up for rent. we walk up the stair and stand talking in a blue room with blue floral wallpaper and two twin beds with blue bedspreads. one wall looks like it's made of blue floral curtains. She tells me "well, the owner of this house was an old woman and she has recently passed away. nothing's quite figured out as far as finances, but no one really knew of her to be honest, so there's not really any paperwork to do. the rent is free." we walk towards the curtains and open one up and there's windows leading into another room. "This is the room you'd have." it has 5 sides, shaped kind of like a bay window, with pink walls and gauzy curtains. there are windows looking out all around. it didn't - but should have- smelled like a nail salon. there are also mirrors where there aren't windows and vanity-desks set up all around. there's one double sized bed with orange and pink floral designs. she says 'ok, well, i'm going to let you explore this room. just let me know if you need anything or have any questions.' i kind of walk around, the carpet is salmon colored. it's kind of a wierd room but i'm into it. i kind of stand near the northwest corner of the room, looking at a vanity drawer and then i feel something slip out of me. then i feel more things slip out of me. i look down and small fish, like 2 inches by 1 inch tropical fish are coming out from between my legs. there are a lot of them, they keep coming, steadily. i think 'i have to call the hospital! i have to go to the emergency room!' but then i think 'they aren't going to know what the hell to do with a girl who's got tropical fish coming out of her!' then i think 'why aren't they swimming? or dying? or wiggling or something?' i realize that they're sleeping.

froth, shakespeare does these love things, grandma
7-9-07
1. taking my temperature in the morning like i normally do for fertility charting. it's pretty high, not out of the ordinary though. i go into the bathroom and my womb is excreting froth. (!) like, a lot of froth.
2. i'm in a social situation, maybe in a cabin, it's far away from my house. we're all (probably 10 or 12 of us) mingling, i hit on my crush in a tentative kind of way...at the end of the night he goes home with jamie, i find out that they have been having a torrid love affair for the past few days. it seems to make sense. i'm caught between feeling proud of and happy for jamie and jealous for my crush. i decide to get over it and do.
3. riding in my roommates' boyfriends car on the way home. it's a white sportscar, we're taking back the leftovers, glass pans with tinfoil on top in cardboard boxes. i'm telling him about a dream i had where he and i were dating. he's into it and kind of starts leaning in even closer to me as we talk. i'm excited by the power of the situation but i'm not interested in him at all.
4. my grandma tells me to straighten my sweater.
