dream 002

i was walking through a grocery store and pushing a cart. i'd run into ryan martin in one aisle and we'd talk about jenna k. and then in the next aisle i'd run into jenna and we'd talk about ryan.

intermittently, i was having a conversation with jimi payne via IM. but i wasn't on a computer or a phone or anything.

there was an art show at the school jen and i went to (which resembled a high school.) there was all this talk about how cheapened the art program had become and how no one gave a shit anymore, and the pieces that were chosen to be put up on display were complete crap. as i walked the perimeter of the school, i saw jess helping hang a large stupid poster-sized piece of "art" on the windows outside in the courtyard. strolling further down the hallway i ran into the only cool thing at the art show - some dude had painted a larger-than-life-size box mint green, and then taped that off and painted the upper and lower portions of the box blackish-brown and was a giant mint-chocolate ice cream sandwich. the project was intended for people to get hands-on with it, and you could make your own version in whatever colors (flavors) you wanted, and then it would get wrapped up in graphically labeled ramen noodle-esque packaging.

i was talking to this dude (who, in my dream i knew from high school, but didn't really) about graphic design, and i was trying to ask him how to do something on photoshop, but i couldn't explain it correctly. jimi chimed in via invisible text message yet again and was like, "are you serious? if you don't know how to do that you're a fucking idiot."

then jen and i were rounding the corner of the school again and we'd apparently been walking for miles. alongside us came this older-ish couple with a dog on a leash. we stopped to pet the dog and we told them all about sam and how much we loved him and how hard it was for us to let him go. they told us that they'd had to do that with a pet before, too, and that it would be okay because you never forget a pet that you love as a family member. i wanted to continue to walk with them, but jen was sick of walking and was like, "UGGGHHHH SO WHAT? ARE WE GOING TO CALL A CAB?" and i was mad that she was being so insensitive.
