Things I want but cannot have right now

[rinue]

1. To see Ghost Writer, which is not playing in Dallas, at least as yet.
2. a sno cone. It's probably for the best, since I am cold. But I want one.

I have had maybe three interesting dreams in my life. The rest of the time, I dream about doing exactly the same things I do when I am awake. I take out the trash. I make small talk. I wait in line at the grocery store. Lately, I've been having a lot of dreams in which I discover errands I need to run, make minor errors at work, and have mildly uncomfortable conversations with people. It makes sleeping unpleasant and not very restful. It significantly confuses me about the status of my waking life. It makes time pass slowly, because I will seem to remember four days in the space of two. I get anxious that I've been belated in getting back to people.

Ciro is now referring to the plants as our pets, which makes me think fondly of my pet artemesia, George, who lives in Boston.

Oh, dear, the slippery slope of naming! There are going to be tears when they get eaten, and more when they (as all houseplants do) die!

Oh, I am sure they will die and also sure that we will wear black and lavender for months. Fortunately, we have a healthy attitude toward cannibalism and shouldn't have any trouble nibbling on them. I am sure I would eat Ciro's arm, given half a chance.

I have been saying constantly lately I am hungry enough to eat my own arm, to the point where even I'm beginning to eye my arm suspiciously. It may be catching.

Mostly I simply have violent, stressful, terrible, but extremely interesting dreams, which I think I might prefer to boring (though only slightly). I'm impressed you can hold your dreams to any semblance of reality.
