a) i got up 20 min late and now don't have time for breakfast.

b) i had the strangest dream in the history of the universe. it started shopping with bri--my cousin-friend-awesome-girl--and her mom, my aunt cherrie. in the oak park mall in overland park kansas, only... there was a k-mart there as well as a lot of the boutiques that you find in boston and places like that. so we were in this small boutique that was actually K-Mart, and they were doing this promotion to sell these dresses that had an empire waist and adjusted via a lot of laces, and the skirt just laced right off, and apparently they could look like a dress from any decade (cinch v. tight for 50s, loosen for 70s--i know it doesn't make sense, but in the dream i believed it). they were also selling those chinese shoes that are plain black canvas mary janes, and pacifiers, and brown cords like from j crew, and aubry wanted to buy some dress, but she was going to get a brown one.

i said, "but you don't have any brown shoes."

she said, "what about the ones i'm wearing?"

oh. they were brown. so meanwhile we went to a card store and aubry bought a card and hid from me to write in it and then we went back to k-mart and she gave it to me while she went in the fitting room. they had a tv in there and as part of the promotion they had a video of kathy and ted turner and president clinton and jay leno, edited so it looked like they were talking about k-mart, but rather fake. and then i read aubry's card and it said "you're here but it's like you're not really here"--she was mad cause i had been complimenting all the clothes she tried on so she thought i didn't really mean it. and meanwhile, the store clerks were passing out little papers to everyone. i thought it was a perfume sample but when i opened it it was a mass produced greeting card signed by...

no really.

guess.

c'mon.

it said "5 april 2002" [there's a pot in the museum dated 6 april, so that's where i got that)-- "hey what's up Radio? it's wax jism here." [did i mention there were NO radios in the dream???]

...?! wtfh? so now k-mart is giving away cards from wax as a promotion. wow, i thought, slash is getting really popular. also, the rest of the card was written very, how shall i say this, scandinavian-ly, like my old Norwegian exchange student.

heh.

was awakened by the phone--roommate's mom asking for roommate. is she there at 8 am the day after Valentine's? you've gotta be kidding me. "no, sorry," i said, instead of, "she slept with her boyfriend, you fucking moron."
