Dreamed Google's social networking functions started automatically posted everything everyone searched for online. I was searching for Come Back To The Five And Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean, and vague acquaintances gave me their opinions. The dream turned into the film and had a subplot involving AIDS. Kim and I moved into a ratty house in Jackson, MS. For some reason, Fry from Futurama was my friend on Google, and posted he was having a movie watching party that night, but I couldn't get anyone to go with me.

Dream was shot like a nineties TV show.
Boarding school
late teens, snappy uniforms. Overcast sky
Kind of awkward and uptight boy, played by a young Ben Stiller, and he loves this wild female friend, in a blonde bob and not too wild, but assertive. She knows he likes her, strings him along. She likes another boy who impresses her in soccer; after he wins a game he kneels by the road and yells something, can't remember, everyone cheers.
She goes after him and Ben Stiller is upset, mopes, finally moves on, kisses other girls, drops blonde completely.
Meanwhile, blonde is jealous, realizes she loves him, but the tables have turned. She fills in on the soccer team, assists a winning goal. She figures she's impressed him, since this was how she was impressed before. Looks in the stands but he avoids her gaze. She kneels at the road and everyone thinks it's a joke victory speech, but she yells "I'm done" and walks away, down the road toward a flat grassy horizon. I think this was shot in England. Ben is stricken.
The show ends to extended landscape shots with voiceover of Ben's bumbling apologies on her voicemail. Left uncertain.
Being lost in a maze of trees, with small worms hanging from crystal strings and blowing in the air. A stone, circular water fountain. Either my Mom or both my parents, who were a comfort.

It was, for some reason, extremely stressful, and I woke up stressed and remained so for hours.
Shooting Rosencrantz and Guildenstern with Esmerelda to save Pinoccio from a kidnapping and murder.

Bringing home a dozen rescue cats, one so small it was smaller than the cat food pieces.
"The nurse has everything
Black hair,
black eyes,
red painted nails,
bruises"

Kalidescope effects with Filets of Fish and bass music.

Two redheaded twins haunt a videotape. I watch on a hill in my neighbor's backyard. My grandma reads a book of poetry written from their point of view. That's where the nurse thing comes from.

Somebody shoots a teenage boy with a giant wooden spike. He runs around a field and creek, and we chase him to calm him down. He pulls the spike out and dies.

Watching a film with robots and neon tubing. The people are slowly becoming robots, and as they change they get more experimental sexually.
A sorcerer's apprentice. He made Renaissance revivalist paintings for the Cosa Nostra. A mobster girl was my friend. We took to each other immediately (the apprentice and I). We ate in an ivy covered yard. I fed him my mom's heirloom olives. I said the word "heirloom" meant it was the original plant, and this was some kind of alchemical code. We sat at opposite sides of the table, on opposite ends. Claude Rains was there, and demanded dessert in that suave way he has. He took the olives with him in a doggy bag and was kind to me.

Before, something about Carmen, and opeds.

After, a race riot and submarine maze with the woman I, the painting alchemist, had fallen in love with (me).
A young boy fell in love with a young girl who lives with her grandmother in the clouds. He leaves and swears to return
