the dream I had last night:
I'm standing on a submerged balcony in a large swimming pool, wearing an animal print (it looks like zebra with the colors of a jaguar) bikini. Two girls to my left are making fun of my friend's ex-girlfriend, who is standing nearby, doing the sort of leg stretch movements we did in that learning-to-swim class in preschool. I ask someone what time it is, it's 1 AM. I walk out of the pool, saying "I'm just gonna go have dinner then come back." I have the distinct feeling that this is a prom, but in a swimming pool and apparantly no guys are there. I walk away from the pool, and am suddenly dry, fully clothed in a goth-punk-grunge type outfit, and walking down a hallway in my highschool. I grab a slice of pizza from some administrator's desk, then go down to the cafeteria. The chairs and tables have all been moved, and there is a large canopy bed with many veils and draperies around it. My science teacher from freshman and sophomore year is standing around near the outside door, and she says something polite, smiling. I reply, then go back upstairs. I remember someone saying to me that, "because it's Easter, nobody is watching and so the characters act differently." I pass a desk with weird lights floating above it, and a melodramatic man reciting something. I go to B-wing, and somehow stumble into a convention of men with a fetish for the Victorian era. They are completely aghast at my presence, astonished at my fishnet shirt and torn jeans. I ask them how to get away, and they point long, pale, long-nailed fingers in varying directions. I follow them in a sort-of-circle, then finally wander away, embarassed.
