sci-fi inspired dreams... and a dress!!!

I woke up, just now, totally alienated. I hate that feeling. The dream I'd been having, for most of the night, was strange at best. At worst, it was downright scary. I think the thing that freaked me out the most was when this evil and strange corporation brainwashed me and sent me into this room to talk to someone about my future. The someone, a creepy accountant type guy, drew this thing, a big diagram of what I was going to do with the Rest of My Life. It included going to school somewhere in Canada, publishing a little, and ultimately dying. The resultant figure looked kinda like a square waffle on the page. Concerned, I drew an X and Y axis pertaining to the graph and asked if Y = happiness. If so, I'd have some pretty low lows in my life. He laughed and said no. He then asked if I had remembered everything he said because there would be a test later. Then when I looked back at the diagram, it had turned into a picture of some city building. That's about the point when I woke up.

Please remind me never to read Robert A. Heinlein before going to sleep. I totally recognize that influence on my dream, as well as my anxieties about upcoming tests and the Mystery of My Future.

Anyway, having told the creepiest part of the dream, I feel a little exorcised. Whew.

Good news! I'm going to drive to the Torrid store in Woodbridge, NJ to get a dress for the True Colors dance, sponsored by OutThere, this weekend. My mom agreed to send me some of the money I saved up over the summer. I think what convinced her was my revelation that I've not bought a dress in a year and a half. Honestly, I'm about due, don't you think?

Speaking of the True Colors dance... is anyone free at 8pm on Saturday? I hate going stag to these sorts of things. If I do, it will be the first time I've ever gone to the True Colors dance without a date. Anyone interested in taking a girl to a dance? It's only $5 to get in, and it's the queerest dance around these parts.

I sound bratty. Someone ought to smack that out of me. Please? ::grin::

I need dates. One for shopping, one for dancing.

WANTED: Someone to go to Woodbridge, NJ with me Friday afternoon in order to purchase a dress for Cedar Crest's annual queer dance.

also

WANTED: A date to the dance. If I could, I'd have Trenton take me. As that's pretty impossible, I'm looking for someone to escort me. The dance is queer and ally friendly... goes from 8pm to probably midnight. It's here at Cedar Crest College, I can give you directions, and it's only $5 to get in, unless you're a college student and then it costs $4, that is, unless you're a CCC student and that makes it $3. Anyone interested in takin' a gal to a dance?

boys n girls

kinkypinkfemme: What should I wear tonite?
kinkypinkfemme: Hm.
trentrevolution: I don't know..
kinkypinkfemme: That was hypothetical... I don't want to give you an anxiety fit. Somehow, asking boys what one should wear seems to cause those....
kinkypinkfemme: :)
trentrevolution: That's because we put on the cleanest jeans and t-shirt we own and then wait for you to help us from there. haha.

I've got a shopping date... so:

One date down, one still needed. Looks like I might go stag to this shindig after all.

I could always post in queer communities with, "Take me to my dance Saturday night!!" Haha.

Hey, there should be a queer escort community. All the queer kids could join and anyone who needed a date to some function could post an ad and fish around for some arm candy.

Mmm, candy.
