the mind's playground

i woke up this morning from a crazy dream. the kind of dream that makes you want to go right back to sleep and continue it. seeings as i don't have a job at the moment, that's exactly what i did. and to my surprise, the dream continued.

this particular dream was one of the "notting hill" variety and involved me, what i believe to be a large multi-purpose grocery store, a family reunion and angelina jolie.

there was no pretense. no nervousness. just two people hanging out and laughing about the stupid things in life. she didn't believe me when i told her we had met before, on the set of her lackluster life or something like it. okay, so maybe "met" is a strong word, but we did share the same rainy seattle air that day.

well, i finally woke up and sat there contemplating this feeling. true, i have admired her from afar ever since hackers. but more than that, i realized just how great of a feeling that sense of companionship can be. regardless of whether said companion is an oscar winner or not. i am not renouncing my bachelorhood by any means, just found it interesting.
