Dream – 2/4/2008
I go into a hospital, up the elevator, to a nurse’s station. Pain in my lower abdomen and groin. I lie on a table in a room. A kid and his dad are there, too. The boy plays with a game and sits on my table. I move to be alone. I go over by the window and sit on a table. The kid comes over again. Geez. I need to be by myself.
I have a cell phone and I call my girlfriend to let her know where I am. I tell her I am on the ninth floor, in Room 7.
I look outside across the street. There is a aconcert starting in front of a fraternity house. I think it might be The Elms that are going to play, but I realize that is not Chris at the drums.
The musicians are many and of varied ethnic backgrounds. There are two white drummers, three Asian female singers on the right wearing short shorts, a male Asian lead singer, three black women backup singers on the left who all have long dresses on. One of the backup singers has a large black bug fly into her mouth while she is singing. One of the other girls swats at it before it goes in her mouth. She keeps singing after it goes in. What a pro!
I am out of the room now, but re-enter. It’s now dark outside. The room is more like a bedroom now, with a dresser and bed. My girlfriend enters with me. A kid sits on the bed … a boy. An iron bust of a knight holding a baseball bat is on the dresser. I pick up a small ball from the boy and pitch it to the knight. He hits the ball into the center of the room weakly.
