dreams
my dreams have been intensely vivid lately. meaningful, maybe only because i wonder about them long after i have woken up. i have dreamt about millions of brightly colored envelopes and putting on piles of makeup and swimming in the ocean in the rain. it all points towards ideas that i am feeling a loss of commmunication, and i need to increase a my sense of self back to the way it was before everything became a volcano in the middle of my otherwise tepid life.

somehow wearing the ring he gave me quiets me down.

everybody needs somebody.

i woke up from a dream, and my phone rang. i am so glad i have a best friend who is on LA time. "it's hard," he said, "being so far away." i know, and that is what makes the mornings so lonely.

waking up in a city full of people, waking up in the middle of the night in a 24 hour place, and i still feel like i am the only one breathing at that hour.

"you need someone," he said. it's true.
