rappers and family.

first: a bunch of family from both sides of my family are at the hospital for some reason. my grandfather on my dad's side is very angry about the fact that people had some problems with and are complaining about my dead grandmother on my mom's side of the family. some of us go to my grandparent's house on my dad's side and were having a small party for some awards show that was on tv. one of my uncle's gets mad because one of my cousin's didn't make some punch that he said he was going to. i was in front of the tv playing with my digital camera, for some reason i was taking it apart and broke it.

then me and two other friends are at a freestyle type party session featuring jay-z, mos def and others. people are just hanging out freestyling against each other. i leave this and have just parked my car in a shitty apartment complex. i am walking to lil wayne's girlfriend's apartment to hang out at another freestyle hang out type party. i walk in and lil wayne is laying on the floor with his girlfriend watching tv. the girlfriend's dad, who happens to be george foreman, is lying on the couch also watching tv, i slap him on the arm and say hello.

movie form.

i often dream in movie form which is basically where the dream is set up just like a movie with plot devices and movie stars and stuff, things will happen such as me having the perspective of a "camera" instead of one actual being, i'll see stuff that characters in the dream will not have known have happened, etc. today i also was having a dream within a dream where i would wake up from the movie dream and check the clock by my bed thinking i was going to be late for work but not actually getting up to check another clock to see the correct time. this kept happening over and over again. for this reason alot of the movie dream is hard to remember.

movie dream:
"jane" and i are private investigators who are working for a man and woman who are museum owners. we are investigating their daughters death. the other woman investigator is at one of the museum's exhibits one night and sees catherine zeta jones there. this cause a big commotion at the exhibit, people taking pictures and rushing over to see her. jane comes back to our office the next day to tell me this and how surprised she was that jones was even at the gallery. i tell her we need to talk to the museum owners about this and we leave to the museum.

when we arrive at the museum the place is completely burned inside, everything black with light shining through a window to the two owners sitting on a desk at the end of a large room. we asked them what happened, they say that the big commotion of zeta jones caused the fire somehow and that they lost everything. they are both very upset and the woman goes outside. the museum is right next door to a beach and the woman stands there very close to the water watching the waves crash all around her, the water is very choppy. she wants to "be apart of all that chaos", takes off the sheer white nightgown she is wearing, throws it down and jumps in.

i go outside to talk to the woman and i can't find her, all i see is the nightgown, balled up on the ground, soaking wet. i take it inside to the museum owners apartment where jane and the husband are. its a very small place. he is at the dining room table, standing looking very distraught. i give him the nightgown that i found at the beach, telling him that i think she jumped in and killed herself. he makes a joke about how terrible things have gotten for him and how it couldn't get any worse and we all laugh.

desert john mayer.

i had started a business selling beers and food to concert goers, like from a small kitchen area. a few of my friends worked there. we were selling tacos, hot dogs and beer from a keg. for some reason we were selling the beers cheap, for like 3 bucks a glass because we had just opened. we bumped the price up later but business had slowed down, i thought because folks were enjoying the concert.
we were out in the desert somewhere, my sister, a close friend, john mayer and i, smoking weed and drinking coronas. we were all sitting backstage of his concert talking. i asked my sister for another joint because we had finished the first one, she said no, that the weed she had left was for her and the rest of the week. i was pissed because i had bought it for everybody but i didn't say anything. i asked john if it was going to be a long concert, he said no, just a couple of songs. somehow, i knew the concert was starting because i whispered this. the place where the concert was held was this big rock formation in the middle of the desert and this rock door opened up in front of us to the stage. john went out and started playing, then came back and got his beer.
