dream, tennis circle cupid
i had a strange dream this morning. i only remember how it ended and a thing i did.
at some point, i was on a laptop, using an instant messenger that looked like an orange pesterchumxl kind of menu. i was talking with a friend. i remember thinking, for some reason, that even though i was writing in a dream, that i hoped i was actually texting him, since i don't really have dialogs with him often. this is true, but it was ridiculous to think i could text actual people from within a dream.
i also remember it culminating in me crawling in some kind of corridor, under a wall that was filling the hallway except for a wide gap near the floor. it was "bug-infested", but it felt like they were holograms or something, and i couldnt make out any specifics of any given bug in the hallway. they were really big and all were obscured by the wall, and i didnt really feel disgusted or appalled by them because of the holographic sensation to them, as if i were looking at bugs in a game that could do nothing to me. a specific image kept flying in my eye-image right-to-left, it was like a fly tilted at an angle. i woke up, and was paralyzed. the semi-transparent black icon of the fly flew identically as before, and then i was able to move. i didnt move for a little while. i felt kind of shriveled. my body felt as though it was compressed, like a slow-activating memory foam. i laid there for a little while, taking in this sensation. and then i did some motion i don't remember, and i quickly felt all of the weight and pressure of my body come back as i regained full sensation. the first thing i did was futilely check my genuine, real-life text logs, which obviously showed that i did not exchange messages in my sleep. i didnt feel disappointed, since by that time i was aware it was impossible.
i watched the first episode of The Tatami Galaxy last night. it was pretty cool, the scene where the unnamed protagonist "has 2 years of [his] college life flash before [him] like paper lanterns" had really cool effects w/r/t the background flying between images. i think the intro is kind of dull, and half the characters that spun through it didn't even make sense. why was there a horse?? why was there a ragdoll cowboy??? the clocktower scene was cool though, and i liked that it showed reverse clips of the episode in quick sequence before cutting to the outro.
