::random nap dream::
so i couldn't get up today for class, so i slept from like 4am to 1pm. on and off, very broken sleep...ultimately never feeling rested. the last section of that, after which i finally got up, came with a really weird dream:
starts off (as far as i remember) with my brother and some of his friends in a water park/hotel (weird huh?). it's familiar to me as it's been in a past dream (or just some really powerful deja vu)...specifically a huge red staircase that curves to the right with a stream on the left edge of it....or something.
so for some reason i'm going to the top floor. i can't remember why. a man gets on on one floor, but wants to go down so he gets off again. there's a man standing next to me who has some quirk, but i can't remember what. i don't remmber what happens up there, but i remember being back on the elevator, and instead of going down, these elevators go downwards diagonally (to the left) with either glass or the door open because i can see outside (this is where i pass that stairwell). at one point it's actually travelling outside and there's these huge water slides coming out of the hotel into a massive river that runs under something the size of the brooklyn bridge...yeah.
okay, so here's the weirdest part. i get to the bottom and i'm about to walk out of the lobby, but i see a bar and i like their coffee. i buy a bag of coffee called "coffee a-go-go" (in green lowercase letters) and start walking out. correction, i grabbed the bag and started walking out, forgetting to pay. before walking out i realize this and reach for money. i know i have a five in my pocket because i have $45, a twenty, two tens, and a five. the coffee costs 2.50. i go and pay, it's a bar/cafe type thing, and the bartender makes me an espresso of some sort for buying the bag of coffee...he puts it in the bar in front of me but someone behind me grabs it, thinking it's his. the bartender looks at me apologetically and hands me a tupperware-style vial looking thing (although about an inch and a half in diameter and oddly shaped) with something that isn't alcohol inside. he gives it to me and shrugs one of those "it's all i've got" type of deals, and hands me a cup of some other coffee, not espresso. i remember opening the vial, smelling it (mild nutty smell), and looking over the rim and noticing convection currents, the type you'll see around the nozzle of a gas pump...so i know whatever it is it's very volatile, but it's not alcohol.
either way, i start drinking it, extremely slowly, and the first sip makes the back of my throat numb. i like it. i drink more. pretty soon i realize that i'm much shorter than the bar, and i'm trying to tippy toe to ask the bartender what it is. he says a word that sounds like 'buburchacha,' a malaysian dessert i am very fond of, but it sound more like 'burbagaong' i think...it was loud, i was short, and his face was getting redder and redder as i drank this stuff. pretty soon my whole head is kind of numb/tingly and i keep asking him what it is. i tell him my head is numb and he laughs with his other bartender friend and gives me that look that bouncers give me when they know i'm underage, but still let me in. he's as red as my face was at halloween and he really looks like the fuckin' devil at this point, and i wake up...unable to move. i mean seriously, i just have no energy to move. i kind of make an effort towards the edge of the bed but don't make it, and i realize that my head feels numb as does my chest, but i can breath fine...
i eventually get feeling back. and here i am.
now, who actually got this far?
