12 April 1998 – from Dream Notebook No. 1

(1st dream in new house—1202 NE Beech!)

Heather and I are at a roadside cafe in S. Oregon somewhere and the guy working there asks me when I got out of jail—and then I remember that I was in jail—how did he know? —no one knows, hardly—it was last fall. I went to jail for 26 days for kicking a car—someone’s car, when I was mad. But I also then kicked a police car. The guy at the cafe says when he went to jail last, it was for “plants”—meaning he grows marijuana. When I think back about being in jail—it wasn’t bad—I read a lot and the time went fast. (Ha.)

Earlier, dreaming—driving around with someone—in the passenger seat—drinking tequila drinks! —Margaritas—shaken up—keep forgetting we’re in a car and it’s illegal. Stash the bottles under the seat—only two shots left—one for me and one for the driver, feeling very sloppy, but not drunk—restless and forgetful. It’s all very positive.
