aaaaayy matey
i had this dream last night but i got too busy to blob it.
for those of you who follow, i've been thinking about being a pirate for halloween...johnny deppish pirate to be exact. i was looking through a costume store with my sis around grand central a week ago and found a pretty good one...i know where it is. the pirate idea, however, was pretty iffy until last night. now it's almost certain.
i dreamt that i was indeed going to be a pirate and so i was out shopping. i ended up in a thrift shop somewhere that reminded me of the ones at home (not that i've really been to a real thrift shop outside of hawaii...all the ones out here are 'vintage' shops). either way...for some reason this place had lots and lotsa hats. the quality of my pirate costume, in my mind, pivots on the quality of the hat i find. so i was looking through aaaaall sorts of hats. for some reason i was really intrigued with two bowler's hats that i found (if you don't know what that is...it was the one the dude wore in clockwork orange...black, brimmed, and rounded on the top). i thought that was interesting...i breifly considered a pirate with a bowler...but realized it would look....odd. so i kept looking and trying on hats...for some reason unable to see myself in mirrors with them on. it was as if every angle i looked at the mirror placed me just outside of my frame of view....i just remembered that. at one point i saw a feather pointing out of the top of a shelf and got extremely excited but when i found it it was a woman's hat...something something purple...lame. i never found a pirate's hat. this place had an escalator, however, and two of my high school friends, kerrey gomes and liana lum (liana crashed at our place a few weeks ago on her fall break from swat) who were saying hi and laughing at me going down the elevator. i was trying to avoid them....i can't remember if i was embarrassed for shopping for my pirate's hat, or irritated by them..but it was one of the two. i don't even know how it was one of those two...they don't seem related...do they?
in avoiding them i somehow jumped over an escalator. the angle was such that it probably couldn't exist....it's hard to explain. kind of escher type of reality i guess, but i was getting away from them.
and i never found my pirate hat :(
arrrrgg
