Sweet Dreams

Most people write down what's happening in their lives. Screw that. I'm only writing down what's in my dreams. If you see it here, don't worry, it was only a dream.

Hard core do-it yourself oil change

I'm at a gas station at a campground, and this guy pulls up who's a real hick. He's got overalls on, 2 big buck teeth, and long stringy hair. He starts talking about how great of a gas station this is, for a campground. "Well... Sheeeiiit", he starts, "I didn't realize a gas station could be this fancy at a camping ground. Look, they've got all kind of tools and parts. They've even got oil tar that you can use to make your own oil, if you want an oil change."

Sure enough, they did have a big jar of black tar, and another big jar of brown tar that (somehow I knew he was right), you could use to make your own oil. The man was creepy and old. Maybe myself in 40 years? :-)

Hey Ryan...I like the idea behind your space - very cool.
I got here through AmberBunny's space after reading the comments left about her dreams.
I too believe that dreams DO have a meaning - it's just a message from yourself. I often find that I actually have recurring dreams...the message is the same but the circumstances I find myself in, or the order of events or places may be a bit different from dream to dream - but when I wake...after a few nights of the same type of dream - I just have to think about the meaning behind it - most usually it is something that I don't want to admit or don't want to bring to the surface. But as soon as I realize the truth about it - the dreams go away. Completely.

I think dreams are cool - they way your mind trys to talk to you when you refuse to listen.

anyway - cool space - keep it up!

BTW - i'm a girl and not a guy as you first thought. LOL

Cool! I totally agree. For the life of me, I can't figure out the meaning of my next dream, although I wish that I could :-*.
