[i]

2:55pm I wake up. My back hurts a little.


DREAM: Driving down Firefall Dr in my old neighborhood. Passing a lake. Brandon Hyatt waiting at a bus stop. Going to my old high school, Ocean Lakes. I’m taking a few classes to finish my college degree. I park. Students piling off school buses. I’m walking with two other people. Wearing a teal colored t-shirt with something like, “Jesus Is Coming!” displayed on it. I keep explaining to everyone how the school looks the same and nothing’s changed in 8 years. But, really, all of it looks different to me. The colors. The structure. Through the window I see a sign that says something about a Mae concert today. I can hear Zach sound checking his guitar. Confused because I wasn’t informed about the show. I tell my friends, “Mae’s playing. I’m supposed to be up there.” Walking into the big auditorium. High School kids are everywhere. Tyler and Andy talking to me, being sarcastic, bringing up jokes about tour. The room starts to look like a vast green meadow with a few sparse trees with overgrown ivy. All of a sudden, in a room with mood lighting and a huge projection screen. Messing with a button console on the wall trying to get certain lights to come on. By accident, the center of the projection screen moves out in a cylinder creating 3D images. People start walking in with boxes of stuff to put on a stage. Projection cylinder moves back into wall. A grey shabby cat. The cat runs through a hallway and down some stairs. I follow this cat in hopes of catching him. ☼☼☼☼☼ In the storage unit with my laptop and the garage door open. Margot is sitting in a chair. I show her how whenever I type “M” in Google Image Search, photos of her pop up. I start searching for a tie-dye background to put an image of her over. A guy from a few units down stops by and I give him this weird VGA cable that connects my laptop to a TV screen. He had let me borrow it the day before.


Breakfast: one Egg, one Mini-Bagel with Butter and Apple Butter Spread, Orange Mango Juice, Zinc.


I stretch to The BQE by Sufjan Stevens. Then sell a small entertainment center to a lady for $20.


I thoroughly vacuum around the house and in my room and organize things.


Lunch: Toasted Peanut Butter and Strawberry Jelly Sandwich, Baked Lay’s, Strawberry Yogurt, Green Tea.


Work at China Wok.


Ian comes over to the house and we make an Indian meal together. I make Baingan Bharta (Eggplant and Tomato) while Ian prepares Samosas with a Dill Yogurt Dip. We add Basmati Rice and Naan Bread. Phil, JP, Joey, Margot, and Ian’s girlfriend Frankie join in and we enjoy fine homemade Indian Cuisine along with India Pale Ales.


The Indian in the Cupboard [1995].


I make some repairs on the painted guitar and try to re-string it.


I eat Funfetti Cake with a glass of Milk.


I clean my teeth, read some of this comic that came with the vinyl, then sleep around 6am.
