I had a dream last night, wherein I was hanging out with my brother and someone who doesn't exist, but was apparently a female friend of his. He left (went to sleep I think), so we were hanging out, and she was really awesome, and we ended up kissing-- a somewhat long tender kiss, but no tongue or anything. My dreams are extremly tactile, I can remember the kiss better than I can anything visually or audially from the dream--I don't even remember the girl's hair color. But it kind of sucks when I wake up and realize she isn't real. Oh well, we were mad at each other by the end of the dream anyway--don't even really remember the reason. I think we were playing some sort of WWII game, and she was pissed she lost or something, but I was all "what does she expect when she's with the Third Reich." I wonder if one can turn one's dreams in to a continuing series. I'd hate to end it like that.
In all seriousness though, those kind of dreams are bittersweet--they always leave me a little depressed, but at the same time, this one kind of charged me up, and makes that kind of interpersonal connection seem a little less distant. Who knows, maybe this girl
does exist somewhere. Maybe she's closer than I think.
Anyway. These are comics which really aren't all that great, but I can't stop reading them for some reason.
http://questionablecontent.net/-- This one I just keep reading out of self-indulgence. I basically see Marten as me surrounded by women on every side (plus a little more knowledge of indie music). It's formulaic, the punchlines are strained and forced most of the time, and Pintsize is basically just Gir from Invader Zim, minus the funny. Yet I still read it.
http://bobandgeorge.com/-- A sprite comic. One of the
original sprite comics. The danger signs should already be flashing. The author clearly has no idea where he's going with his stories, and always either tries too hard to hit a joke, or, when advanicng the plot, tries to force one that doesn't really work. A lot of the past storylines were actually clever and funny, but it's really going downhill as of late. But he keeps just enough mystery hidden just around the corner, that I can't stop reading. A testament to my human weakness, I suppose.

Alright, off to bed. Don't want to miss my date with dreamgirl.
