All Weird Up

Something strange is in the air, perhaps Sam could decipher it for me…
Exhibit One: A new obsession with sandwiches. I can’t get enough of them. Ive had similar experiences with pancakes, where I would make pancakes and fried chicken every meal I could..but this sandwich thing is out of control. What’s wrong with me? Every molecule in my body is saying “SANDWICH SANDWICH SANDWICH” every moment of every day. The thing is, I feel like a traitor, usually I need rice at every meal. Shoyu of some variety should be present at some stage of preparation or consumption. But I’ll be damned if I havent needed rice for a minute. Is the colonization complete? Am I white?
Instance Dos: Over the weekend, I was mistaken for two things that I very much am not. First, someone was convinced I was from New York..completely out of the blue. She said it was my ‘accent’ and the way I dressed. This is rather surprising, considering the former really could only be described as ‘pidgin valley girl’…perhaps the way of speaking most diametrically opposed to a New Yorker. Later, someone thought I was from Portugal or Spain and started spouting Portuguese and the Spanish when it looked like I wasnt understanding that. Now, Im half portuguese, but fuck if i dont look more pilipino than anything else. (or not). Anyway, strange weekend indeed with people coming at you like that.
San: WEIRD DREAMS/SLEEPING PATTERNS: I crashed out around 7pm last night, woke up at 8:30 pm thinking I had slept for days and that it was the next morning. Naw, it was 8:30pm. I crash out again til 10 this time. Waking up with the same sensation I was just out of it. I ended just sleeping for hour long naps randomly throughout the night, each nap punctuated with weird dreams and me drenched in sweat. Each dream was increasingly violent and bizarre culminating with one where my family was in a hotel room that would be periodically flooded with sea water (during high tide of course). We discovered that a giant octopus was chilling in there and that people were trying to kill him. So I was put in charge of protecting him. Unfortunately, I lost track of him for a second and the water drained and he was gone. Everyone hated me for it, but I legitimized it in my dream by saying there were more places to hide in the actual ocean. Our bedposts had barnacles and such on them.
Quatorze (remember that?): Feeling more animosity and rage toward one person than I have felt in a forever. Now, most people know that I have a menagerie of arch-nemeses, but this punk ass trick (or, mark ass motherfucker) is now topping the list. I would feel bad destroying him and that wouldnt improve the situation, but DAMN.
So before the halloween mix (please link that shit if you have a blog!) and the Students For Hip-Hop ‘05 Mix, I had a project going on that was taking up WAY too much time. I was going to get it duplicated, but its too old now. If you want, please check out a half-hour of it here. (right click-> Save as…the usual)

Too bad it wasn’t one of those giant land octopi that stick to the sides of skyscrapers.
