I hope to regain your attention once more and give you a fair explination why my last post looks almost identical to this one. Well, that one was written while I was 4 minutes from just waking up. So running it through an optional spellcheck and maybe a reread was'nt an idea at the time. So I took the liberty of re-posting a more readable version.
I’m unsure how I actually found my way here. But, the way I found myself here was purely fueled by inspiration.
When I think about it if I hadn’t had this dream tonight that ended with waking me up and having me search the internet for that one song I over heard in this dream. So, I finally find it and it ends up being "John Waite - Missing You".
I'm as confused as you are. I was born in 1983 so I doubt I had a chance to absorb the full experience that the 80's offered. But where I heard this particular song was in a movie that played in my dream. I remember it vaguely. So writing down the remembered tidbits in word was tasking. But I think what I did manage to remember and write down was great stuff. Funny ideas come to me like, "I’m no director. I don’t even like movies all that much. I mean, no more than you're average blockbuster customer" But, the events that went through my dream as they unfolded I found myself as the lead character. A guy basically falling in love with this woman. Another love story fanatic born right? Wrong. I don’t even enjoy love stories, novels, or anything within the genre. But this dream had me realize something. While I was playing this lead character I really felt this emotion for the woman character. As if I cared for her and felt a connection. Finishing the dream was the awesome part. We both kissed crying on each other. Fucking odd indeed.
I've probably given you the first impression most people would rather avoid. Like insanity. Well, i'm nor insane or a romantic. But, I cant help but fell inspired by the events that went down in this dream. Now right after I woke up I stared into the darkness of my room thinking. It’s already been done. I don’t remember, but it was done by Kevin smith. So, I check out the closest movie by Kevin Smith that dealt with this subject matter Chasing Amy. Then come to find that it doesn’t come close to what I had happen in the dream. Plot-wise that is. So, I’m sitting here staring at trailers and background commentary from Kevin. Notice a forum and joined up. My story.
How I got here. I don’t know. I don’t know why I think staying would be a good idea. I just feel like I can learn something.
