Death by the pool

Dreams of death will not escape me. Honestly, I think it is my apartment. I never had this many bad dreams before I moved here. And when I’m not here I do not have nightmares. For instance, I do not have nightmares at Todd’s house, at my parents house, and I definitely did not have any at the beach. However, on Friday night I had one. It is rather amusing actually.

I was in a beautiful swimming pool. Maybe I was still at the beach. I was with some random made up people who aren’t real. Then I got shot in the stomach. I looked down and saw that the bullet had gone through my stomach, come out my back, and was sinking to the bottom of the pool.

So I got out of the pool and was like “hey random people I’ve been shot.” They were like “what?” I said “yeah look in the pool.” There was a big puddle of my red blood neatly floating in a circle. So someone called 911 and I was just waiting. I didn’t feel any pain, and I was holding my back so the blood wouldn’t come out. I layed down on the cement by the pool and asked if someone would put pressure on my back to stop the blood. One old lady did for about a minute then she said she was grossed out and stopped. Nobody else wanted to help me. Then I heard the sirens, so I got up and started running while still holding my back. I was kind of hobbling but I thought the ambulance was coming. It turned out to be some men on a firetruck, but they stopped and asked if I needed help. Just then, I heard more sirens and saw the ambulance coming in the distance so I said they could go ahead and I’d get in the ambulance. So the firetruck left and the ambulance just turned out to be a hay truck or fancy motorized wheel barrow with a siren on it. And I think the drivers were like Amish or something.

I layed back down on the ground and waited for the real ambulance. Suddenly my entire body just got really warm and I felt hot pins and needles all through my body. I knew I was dying then so I closed my eyes and decided I would just die. Well, then I woke up. It was 4:45 am and I was sleeping on my stomach with both arms stretched above my head under the pillow. Both arms were completely numb from shoulder to fingertip. So … perhaps that is why I was dreaming about having hot pins and needles. I think I’m a nut. Anyways, it was kind of funny actually. Better than the natural disaster nightmares.

In other news, I have nothing really. The beach pictures are up. My weekend was uneventul for the most part. I went to Todd’s house on Friday night and hung out with him and the kitty. Saturday I bummed around and pretended to clean my house but really didn’t get much accomplished. I went out and bought a six pack of Yuengling and thought I’d make a night of it and put up the beach pictures. That didn’t really happen either. I drank all six beers which of course makes me drunk because I’m not a hardcore alcoholic. I talked to someone on IM from myspace for like two hours and don’t recall much of what I said but I do seem to remember being coherent enough to ramble about God knows what. I do recall him saying that he is good at dealing with people with “problems”. I need more friends like that! Not that I have any major problems, but I’m definitely abnormal. At least according to society. I get really annoyed when people act like they want to know me but once I say something that isn’t super happy and cheery they get all weird around me or don’t want to talk to me anymore.

Anywho, today I sat around and watched TV, cleaned more … I’m a really slow cleaner because I get very distracted. I spent two hours putting up the beach pictures and writing little recaps for each picture. I went out and bought a chicken salad because there is still no food in my refrigerator unless I want to snack on mustard or butter. I watched some of the E! True Hollywood story on the Simpson sisters. If you didn’t know, I’m a big Jessica Simpson fan. And no, I’m not being sarcastic. She is one of the few celebrities I actually like. I loved watching Newleyweds. I think she is pretty cool but I don’t think we’d get along as friends. She shops way too much and is more whiny than me.

All in all, it was a good lazy weekend. I needed a weekend to just kind of chill and not really do too much. I’ve enjoyed it but now its back to work tomorrow, so I’ll be grouchy soon.

Bye!

    I like Jessica Simpson too! I never wanted to admit it for fear of being mocked. I watched the E! True Hollywood story and then I added all the seasons of Newleyweds to my Netflix queue. I’m going to be hanging out solo this weekend so I figured I’d get some quality DVDs to watch. I think she is really pretty and even though she plays up the ditzy thing I think it’s cute. I’m not a huge fan of her sister or her parents though.

    Yeah I find Ashley Simpson to be kind of annoying. I used to watch her show on MTV but she just seems really immature – I guess she is only like 21, but I just don’t care for her and I got so tired of hearing her whine about her acid reflux. I really want to see Dukes of Hazzard too. Newleyweds is good but you’ll have to put up with seeing her family and her annoying friend/personal assistant CeCee. Ughh, I can’t stand her!

    Did you see the part in the E! special when Ashlee was talking about being a ballerina? She said that she quit even though she was great at it. God. I think being confident and comfortable with yourself is a wonderful thing that I hope to achieve some day. But flaunting your imagined greatness is not confidence, it’s bratty arrogance.
