ghost shakes

i'm not really sure what was real or imagined or dreamed. i coulda sworn that i woke up last night and the room was shaking. i then stood up and went to the side of my lofted bed and swayed there for a while. i then got a drink of water and went back to bed.

however, i just checked the earthquake tracker and there wasn't one anywhere near japan last night. if a dream, what a vivid one! could it be prophetic? or maybe i just ate some bad sushi and produced a tuna-inspired nightbear.

either way, earthquakes are fun! all danger aside (and of course, papa, i fully understand what to do if the room starts to crack in half), it'd be so cool to get some friends together and have a minute-long quake dance. impossible to coordinate, but cool. i should google quake dance and see if someone's done this before. ha! there are lots of dances called "earthquake" on youtube. they're pretty funny looking. if i ever get my webcam working again, i'll try to tape myself next earthquake, doin the dance.

oh, and i'm sad. the japanese marathon women's runner just dropped out cuzuva calf tear. i was looking forward to that. noguchi mizuki's her name. the male breaststroke swimmer just isn't as inspiring.

that's all.

Comments:
it was probably an earth quake in a parallel dimension that you were existing in briefly as you woke. and you brought it with you into your dimension. that could have been bad. what if you brought it all the way over? what if you brought something worse?

or you were caught in a haruki murakami novel. did i ever tell you about my japanese earth quake? i was recording music with my headphones on and getting really into it and then everything shook and i wasn't sure if it was an auditory hallucination that took over the rest of my senses. but no, it was real.

mine was real.

i love waking up and knowing with absolute certainty that someone else is in the room. feeling them there. once i was sure that someone was lying on the floor, parallel to me in the bed. at any moment they could raise their arm up and touch me. that freaked me the hell out. classic monster under the bed. except more in line with the Ring.

now i'm creeping myself out again. i'm sleeping at the printer tonight in their guest room in a big factory. that's also why i'm typing so much. ok bye.
