Sounds like a wild and crazy dream.

Dreamed there was a terribly important bird racing event happening in some town one night, and I was to be one of the announcers (because I always was). The birds vaguely resembled fluffy black chickens but with half of their bodies shaved, and each wore a tiny red, square hat and a small, badly sewn little cape. Since, again, it was night, you could barely see them flying overheard, so really it was an entirely pointless event, but there were a good four or five people who were enthralled and expecting our super important sports commentary. So I and the two others sat with our old-timey microphones and made comments about the birds' "impressive athleticism" and "disarming elegance" (these birds were absolutely not elegant) -- my job was to keep score somehow, so I had to just make up a bunch of nonsensical sports jargon and keep track of which birds had the most sports points. I actually woke myself up from laughing which frightened my roommate.

I only remember fragments of last night's dream; this is what I scrawled down on a post-it note before going back to sleep early this morning:

"Several black sphinx cats with green eyes; they gathered and one licked my hand. Wind everywhere, wind that felt like a whip-- low black bubbling clouds-- possible death, a group of people half known half unknown, a test or thing to be endured in order to transform- like this lady who was looming there-- powerful, mute, feral-- had large machinelike animals and animallike machines she rides-- she chose me; she sent the wind to collect me."

There was a $2 hike in cigarette prices here so I recently quit after trying out a pack of dirt cheap ones instead of my regular camels. I think that's what incited this nightmare. I was also sleeping in a car and was waking up every hour.

I was with my friends doing some weird ****--fixing an instrument I think--and we ran out of beer so we walked to the liquor store. So we arrive there talking jibberish, and I pass by the vodka and start looking at the beers and there are all these new tags on them over the old stickers. They had repriced everything 4 or 5 dollars higher, so the craft beer aisle was like $20 a six pack. My companion informed me of the new beer tax when I asked what the ****. I dropped to me knees and let out a dramatic "NOOOOOOOOOO!!" At that point, a black widow started crawling up my leg (I should note that I was in my underwear at this point in the dream). I smacked it and smacked it but it kept climbing higher towards my crotch. Then I grabbed it and crushed it in between my index finger and thumb, which set off a wild shockwave through my body that made everything fuzzy and muffled. Then the dream ended.

Can we start taxing babies or something? Every time they raise the cigarette tax I get the urge to bomb the state legislature.

We should tax babies in areas where there is easy access to abortion clinics.

And subsidize abortions.

Had two weird dreams, one about my gf and one about my ex.

In the dream about my gf, she jumped in a cab to meet some guy at a hotel and he ended up kidnapping her. He took her across state lines and ended up pimping her out then I crossed over into a dream about my ex where I just barely escaped a building that exploded. The people that made it out of the building were lining up to get their blood tested for some chemical related to the explosion but the line was so long and out into the street for three blocks that I said **** that and went home. I ended up seeing my ex's 2 yo son in my apartment and I was so pissed off because he didn't have his diaper bag with him which is weird because his mother wouldn't leave me to babysit him without it. Poor kiddo was starving so I looked in my fridge and I was out of everything, no milk , nothing. I ended up just filling up his bottle with water and he drank that. I kept looking through my cell phone to find her phone number to call her but it looked like her number was erased from my phone. I couldn't even remember her last name and thought maybe I started to organize people in my phone by last names then these strangers started barging into my apartment acting like they knew me and hanging out but they wouldn't help me figure out this stupid girl's last name or her number. I was like **** this I'm waking up because too much bad shit is happening. I realized it was a dream and looked up at the clock on the wall and pulled myself out of it.
