I had a strange dream last night, as often happens, especially when I've stayed up too late. I don't remember all the details, of course, but I do remember that my old Mac IIsi was in the dream (that's the computer I had when I was in college, mind you!), and a bowl of rotten or bruised peaches. One part of the dream involved being with a number of people, I don't remember who they were, but we were on top of a large skyscraper, but there was an outdoorsy type area including a small amusement park up there. There were also some people who were participating in a triathlon race. They were getting off bicycles and then running off in the direction from which they had come. Not a very safe triathlon, if you ask me. And who has a bike race on top of a skyscraper? I don't even want to think about where they had done the swimming part of the race.
Then there was a part of the dream (maybe it was a different dream?) where I was at this really bizarre cross between a swimming pool (not for triathletes) and a prison. Just because they had bars to keep you from going from one part of the pool to the other. The were open most of the time, but there was a lockdown moment. I guess that's like, adult swim from hell? Anyhow, some of my college friends were there, most of whom I have not spoken to for years.
It's possible that thinking about college was influenced by the fact that the cute guy I met at The Lure last night and I had both taken classes, at different universities, from the same professor. And when I got home last night, I looked up that professor on the web and sent him an email: "Two of your former students were discussing you in a gay bar last night!" He replied back, and was very glad that we had met up. I think he thinks I was telling him that we had had sex, which is not the case, as I mentioned to you last night.
Anyhow, I hope you're not too disturbed by my dreams. I know I'm not.
