And you looked to me covering myself in the crowd of a house party I reluctantly attended wanting to believe me.

Daydream Sequence #8
My r.e.m. is interrupted by an abrupt need to search for a sweet spot. Kick my legs to loosen the comforter that’s tangled them. Gosh I’m tired. I survey the dark room as it appears from this new angle; under the dresser. Nothing new there: same old dust. Suddenly there are lights. Police lights? No, [...]

Big Dreams
My life tells a completely different story, but the truth is I dream big. I dream bigger than my pockets can handle; in ways that scare my family; as often as possible; and with the personal assurance that they will come true in some time and place. I am also impatient and easily manipulated by [...]

Random Thoughts, cont’d.
Random thoughts, cont'd. 204. “Is it supposed to feel like this?” Are there any situations in which one expects an affirmative response to this question? 205. Why does the speedometer go past speeds at which there are never any (legal) instances in which one should travel them? 206. Molded cheese is edible. Just slice away [...]

The Obituary
As promised, I’ve been working out this obituary. And I got a new idea while writing it.

http://www.myspace.com/darleneanitascott Last night I nearly drowned. I’m not sure how I ended up in the water.It was salt water, frothy, and that brownish color of a pond or lake and there was a lot of turbulence, so I was struggling. You should know that I am not a swimmer in my waking life. My personal [...]

A Note About Daydream Sequences
http://www.myspace.com/darleneanitascott If you've followed my posts, you've also followed my daydream sequences. Let me explain: I am not superstitious though I am convinced that reality is relative and mostly a creation we make to manage our lives. For me, that idea probably began before I was born, conceived, or even was a twinkle in the [...]

Daydream Sequence #5
Once upon a time there was a nerd girl with tendencies toward hermit-ism, green-ness, and not a little--oh I already mentioned--nerd. At this time also lived a boy with tendencies toward the same, a dope sneaker collection, and random sundry other traits that bear mentioning (just not here; not now).
