Wolf Wizard, I love your avatar! Where'd you get it, did you make it?

I've heard it said before that when a person has a fear of something, they have nightmares until they either lose their fear of it, or go insane. Insanity seems to be the most common option, it said... :P

I had a dream, and I know it was weird, but I can't remember that much of it...I think I can remember the muffled shout of somebody, calling out something like, "We need to find The Chicken!"

Wow...I just dreamt I was in chat. All I really remember is that MS was there, and the computer was in my room, which is weird too. I remember thinking about how some people were never on chat since chime closed, and MS was one of them, plus I've been thinking aboyut how great it would be to have a decent computer in my room , so that may be it.

I had a really awesome dream. I met DD in a book signing, and then saw her later downtown. It was pretty cool, although I doubt that I would act as calm as I did in my dream, and saw her in a booksigning.

kk: Which avatar? the HP one, or the running wolf one?

At the time I meant the HP one, but I like the running wolf too!

I had a dream about Nita debating with herself over telling Kit something, and saying, "Yeah, right; I'll tell him that when pigs fly!" Immediately after she said that, the Transcendent Pig walked up, seemed to get a thoughtful look in his eye, and then sprout wings and fly, saying to Nita, "Well, it looks like you're going to have to tell him, aren't you."

Edit: I had another odd dream last night, that had something to do with National Treasure. It was like my grandfather (a Mason) was going in search of the lost treasures of Affalone (Atlantis) and was searching underwater. I guess that's was I get for watching a scientific documentary on the legend of Atlantis...

Right, I'm going to post the entire contents of my dream 'diary', as whenever I have interesting dreams, I record them. So, here goes... (Note: Writing may be fragmented, these are only notes)

2006?:
Was at a book store with lots of Harry Potter books, saw Cho Chang, in parking lot when was leaving saw something about a motorcycle.
November 3, 2007:
Tristes, ordered to catch ’13 day old vampire’, succeeded, fed on energy while keeping him locked in a room, heard them talking about it, woke up.
November 7, 2007:
Valley, Earth, magma room, jumping on platforms, evil madman, electronic game store, Jenna kidnapped by madman, Daine kidnapped by madman, “There are two Numairs that exist in this world” said voice as I was about to wake/ I-Numair realized, Other person wanted to be with Numair, I entered store, Jenna and Daine- brave, whacked madman on head almost into lava, at end other person and Numair/I started to- as voice said and we/I/he realized.
I was in this valley and there was a building that had this electronics store for Gameboy, Nintendo DS and stuff. There was this room in the place that was like an arena that was a pit-thingie full of lava with platforms that you had to jump along. There was also a crazy madman that challenged me and my sister, Jenna, and Daine, from Tortall (Umm... I think this dream was brought on by reading weird fanfics about the Immortals Quartet and others by Tamora Pierce right before I went to bed...) to a match type thing where we have to try to push him into the lava. Daine and Jenna were being very brave and whacking the crazy guy on the head and he almost fell in. Somewhere along the line after that Daine was kidnapped by the madman and Jenna and I went up to this tower in the building and we had to avoid these things that were bad but I can't remember what they were. When we got to the tower there was this magical person who was doing something with a potion thing. We asked a question and then I think something else happened and we left. The Jenna got kidnapped. I asked this lady downstairs if she knew where they could be and she told me to ask the people in the video game store. As I was entering for some odd reason I noticed the games on the display thing rather clearly. Some sort of sports game... The people there said they didn't know anything and then I wasn't me anymore.
I ended up being a visitor in the consciousness of Numair, a yet another character from Tortall. He/I (at this point while I was asleep I really couldn’t tell) wanted Daine back and asked the lady if she knew anything, again. She said no and I think that he/I ended up really depressed and the she... Erm... Well... He/I... You can see why that would disturb me right? Me being a girl and all... While... that... was happening he/I felt that one he wanted Daine back and we/he/I heard a voice say "There are two Numairs that exist in this world" and something about choosing and we/he/I agreed and then I woke up...
2006? 2007?:
Was going to camp with school, got there, did stuff like swimming, others and me acting weird, found baby peacock after swimming, taught him to speak English, he told me that he’d discovered that if he touched his crest feather to the forehead of another living creature that he could know everything that I though/think/knew/know/feel, swam in lake, woke up.
Oct 25, 2007:
Was in school library during lunch, Mrs.Winget was helping students find books, I was looking for werewolf books, shelves on one side of library were shorter up and down like they were made for younger kids, lunch bell rang, had to go to 8th period for some reason, went to locker, was trying to open it, Mrs.Crabtree said something to do with a scanner light being messed with, bell rang, think I figured out what is wrong, Mrs.Crabtree left, as I was opening my locker one other person was fiddling with his locker. Edward Cullen (from Twilight), he offered to help me, I woke up for school.
(Also >It was at the school library during lunch and the shelves on the right when you enter from the 100 wing were smaller like at a children’s section of the library. For some un-comprehendible reason I was looking for werewolf books and Mrs. Winget was there helping some people find books. Then the bell rang and I had to go to 8th period and when I was at my locker it wouldn't open and then Mrs. Crabtree said something about scanning and the locker combination and then guess who had a locker in the same area and was still fiddling with it? Edward Cullen... O_0' Then he started to help me open my locker and Mrs. Crabtree went back in the classroom and then mom woke me up to get ready for school.
2004?:
Was older, was in sultan palace place, discovered weird passage way thingie, magicky doorways open, in rafters, spied on people walking down halls, can’t remember what else happened.
2001?2003?2005?:
In arctic/Antarctic with mom, as running from polar bear, rocks fell in front of us and I opened with key, volcano erupted magma and rocks, kept running.
2006:
In front yard, running from really fast cobra, got into house, jumped over cobra to get upstairs, ran around house, jumped on/over dads desk, can’t remember rest.
2005?:
Fox Island playground, poofing to different spots, inside of building mansion-like, other people poofing to different places, found out it was a dream in a weird way, 3rd grader(Zach von (Zike?)) tells me good job; I’d figured it out and he is an evil mage from a different ‘world’, said that if I beat him in a/some contests he would give me powerful dark magic, I won, was more powerful than him, he left through a worldwall saying something or other.
2006?2007?
I was at a store with mom and a friend. I was looking at stuff, and then found a dead bird at the end of one isle. A person came over and I think he was a vampire. I believe he wanted to ‘eat’ the bird so I let him be. I went to look at other stuff at end of other isle with shelves arranged like a (II-TI). Then there was weird giant rabbit-deer thing running around. I got bit by a werewolf, and chased rabbit deer thing with the person who bit me. Then he ate the thingie. We were warned that it was good that we didn't eat the head as it was poisonous, then we figured out that the watching crowd was not mostly humans. Most were vampires, werewolves, ect. with a few humans only.
Summer? 2007:
I made the world in my mind and was showing Dustin, Sparky, F’nr and Jeys around the world that I made with the *coveysimpressionofthosewholiveotherwiseinadifferentwaytheatwouldidturbmostpeoplealivetoday* and the *conveysexpressionofthosewhoareoppositetheothersandthatliveinaseminormalbutgermophobicway* and the northern world place with the wolf guards but then I fell asleep and then the weirdness began.
Dawn, Emily and Madison? were walking around the forest area around my house and they were all wearing wizardly costumes. (I don’t know how I knew this from *theworldthatwasnotearth* but I did and I saw that. I mean it was a dream of a world crossing!) Dawn was in a black witch robe thing and Emily was with a wand and some other stuff. I can’t remember what Madison? was wearing. They found the claw marks in the two trees by the ‘house’ entrance and they saw Dustin, Sparky, *mirrorme*, *oppositeme* and I go through them to get to *theworldthatwasnotearth* so they did. The *worldthatisnotearth* sort of changed and I knew that I didn’t want it to but I couldn’t concentrate enough to put everything ‘normal’ again. The lands changed to a big forest and rocky land and I think only the mountain stayed the same. We found them looking around in the forest and I asked, what did they think they were doing, going into an unknown worldwall? And Dawn said that they saw us go through and they followed. I got Dawn and Madison? to go home but told Emily she could stay and I would see if she wanted to join that ‘worlduniverseplacegroup’. Then I woke up and put all the places back to normal and started to show Emily around and then had to go do something.
November 18, 2007
We were at my house outside, there were lots of people, we had to go to a house across the neighborhood, something attacked me, my lower half came off, I died, people buried me, they were sad and crying, they walked on, I ‘pulled myself together’ and reattached everything, ran to catch up, saw Jacob, caught up with him, he and one other seemed to be the only ones who could see me, we were talking, we were behind and we were running up the hill to catch up, I told him “Its ok, its hard for me to run up this hill and I’m not even-”, was about to say not alive anymore but then said “Never mind. I’m not sure that’s true and if its not and I tell you I’ll feel stupid.”, we reached neighbors house, played around for a while, went out to back of house, walked around, two snakes attacked Jacob, he avoided them for a while, they ended up wrapped around him, the snakes constricted, Jacob ended up in two, then he was next to me normal but it seemed only I could see him, someone picked up his original upper half, I said something about ‘ Don’t just stand there, put him back together. I mean look at me, I’m walking around and my lower half got cut off!”, someone who gave the feeling of Jacob’s mother but wasn’t ran over and went into a panic, I was told something about ‘good job’ in regards to making some sort of ceremonial kite, then there was a burial in which ‘the ghost of Jacob’ was very confused, then everyone was about to leave, then I woke up.
12/3/2007
Alice (from Twilight) wanted to go somewhere, simultaneously: boy named Sam (possibly from The Magickers) in a dragon shirt that I drew talking to someone about a dragon, also Harry Potter/Eragon was fleeing someone with an older woman and when they reached the burning city his house was aflame and he turned a curtain into a cloak, woman got nearly run over by train, Harry/Eragon was sad and depressed, meanwhile in the forest there was a few giant dwarf cartoons and Peter Lucy Edmund and Susan (from The Chronicles of Narnia) were talking about a war of some sort and were being attacked, Peter/Edmund? yelled ‘We stand and fight!’, in city Harry/Eragon was acting like when Garrow (from Eragon; Eragon’s uncle) died and was thinking ‘Maybe this thing had something left in it after all.’ about a flask that used to be the woman’s that held a milky white liquid mixed with water that Harry/Eragon was drinking to keep him from dwelling on the woman’s death, at the same time the woman got up and was dazed for a while but was alright, at the end Sam was speaking about a dragon and Peter Lucy Edmund and Susan were fleeing with their small army to do something about attacking the intruders.
?
I was walking around in this house that we seemed to be guests at and there was this dog... Anyway, I think I heard this noise or maybe I just found my self near this room. As I entered I heard one of the guys in the room muttered (and I think that during the dream that was the word that spelled itself in my head to describe it) 'Nice body.' and I asked whose and the guy answered 'Your sister's'. I started crying and I hugged my dad, then I woke up. I can still remember exactly what the man looked like and how he was standing.
12/10/2007-12/11/2007, 10:55PM-2:45AM
It was in my neighborhood and Nicias was there. In the very weird bizarre dream my mom was a falcon... And Nicias was chasing me, and trying to kill me. All around the neighborhood and at my neighbor's house. He was about to push me off something high up and, though I was either a serpiente or an avian, i couldn't do anything about it, but I ended up pushing him off instead. He was alive and he landed near where my mom was standing. He was about to attack me again but them mom said "We don't want to kill her... Yet." or something menacing like that. Then they both caught up to me and mom gave me this plastic cup of orange watery stuff and some powder stuff in another cup. She told me to turn the liquid 'Tangerine'. After looking at her like she was insane (And, this being a dream, it was quite possible) I thought for a bit and mixed the two cups together, a little cocky, because of dream logic. It didn't mix very well and stayed separated but then mom told me to color her white sweatshirt thing with it. I looked at her (again) as if she were insane, thinking somewhere along the lines of 'Is this a trick question?' but was about to do it when I woke up. But during that dream, another was simultaneously going on. I was browsing fanfiction.net and it had a new format. I was looking at 'Daine/Numair stuff' or 'ITFOTN or Hawksong ect. stuff' and I read several note/fictions about plagiarism, or pairings, or characters. I clicked on another one and was about to read it, then this part of the dream ended.
Long ago:
Walked into my house, there were stranger/stick people there and we had to leave, I ran around the house, transformed into a wolf somehow, won the race and allowance to worldgate to other universe, went back to house, put original copies of everything in a magical suitcase, Mom, Dad, Jenna and I went to world gate and had to choose what shapeshifted animal we would be, I chose wolf/dragon magic, Mom chose swan?, can’t remember what Jenna and Dad chose, I used magic to create a pocket universe to live in, brought Emily and her family to the universe, Emily chose dragon.
12/13/2007:
Dreamt I was Jazlyn. Also dreamt: I was at a store with mom and Jenna, when we looked at the big dark spaces between stuff Jenna/we saw dead/decapitated/dismembered things, there was blood with/next to lots of other stuff.
2004?:
I was at my house, a snake was chasing me, I knew it was venomous, I ran to the couch downstairs, it followed me, when I was on the couch the snake was about to bite my tongue when I woke up.
2006?:
I was upstairs in my house, the stairs were non-existent and closed off, I had a bow and arrows, me and others were shooting at lots of creatures fighting downstairs, giant shark jumped up and was waling on back fin(s?), it chased me, the house turned pirate-shipy, I hid in my room, the shark was trying to get me out, something distracted it, then I got out and it chased me again, I can’t remember any more.

At Emily’s house, was raining, Trudy was rolling around outside, we were going to do an experiment that involved frozen books and a thingy, Ginger was a boy not a girl and Rocky was a girl not a boy, the Nitchmans were there, we put the frozen book in a box and put the thingy on top, we went into a side room, Emily had some books from the Charmed series, I asked what was the first one was because I wasn’t able to find out, she showed me which one, one of the frozen books ‘defrosted’, we put another one in, I left my body somehow and was slightly omniscient, Rocky got mad at Ginger because he(she) ‘mated with someone else before’ and I could understand what they were saying directly, Rocky said she(he) would get revenge, I was back in my body, I told Emily&Megan&Jenna&Elise while the other book was ‘defrosting’ we look around trying to figure out what Rocky was going to do for revenge, all we knew was it had to do with Ginger’s ‘amhnodo’ or something like that, we were about to tell the adults, I think I woke up after that.
12/20/2007, 5:20AM:
Was at my house in my room, I was getting ‘weaponry’ for something, I had a bag with a knife&several spiky things& a stainless steel ruler, the Quileute’s& the Cullen’s were there, I was in a big area with (Edward? Jasper?) or someone who was a vampire, I was making a chart-paper-thing like a report about/for the Quileute’s, one of them (the wolves) attacked me, I hopped around and attempted to keep everything with me, the OC distracted the wolf so I could grab the report thing and my stuff and get away, I ran back into the house, I saw Jacob (Black) running around in wolf form-sort of, I gave the report to Sam, I was back in my room, Jenna was there, she said there was going to be a balloon fight or something, I pulled some stuff out of my bag of pokey things, my purple ruler was bent a lot, I started crying ‘Noooooooooo’ and was mad at Jenna, she said it was fine-just bent, I handed it to her and told her to fix& unbend it, we were trying, I woke up.
12/23/2007, 9:10AM:
Before that, same night:
Was at a museum place, Mom was there, some friends of mine (can’t remember who) were there, we looked around, me and friends got bored, we ‘broke in’ to a closed off exhibit thing, it was all ‘Egypt-y’, we were chased by something (that felt suspiciously like something from one of the Legend of Zelda games…), we managed to get out and lock the door, we were leaving when friends’ parents came up, someone yelled ‘What have you done to my boy?!?’, I said ‘nothing’, we argued, then left. Then…:
Was at school, at end of day, looking at books in library, saw Emily, said ‘hi’, Mrs. Winget gave me a piece of read licorice for doing some favor or other, I walked out, the school was sort of like Voyager(my elementary school), Carlisle-Edward-Jasper-Rosalie and Alice (from Twilight) were there, Kaitlyn and Carolyn and Jacob(Stewart) and possibly others were there too, no one else recognized Twilight characters, we were at the entrance-road to the Voyager grounds, Kaitlyn-Carolyn-Jacob and I made ‘dirt balls’ (snowball sized balls made of dirt/clay for racing down tracks in sand box. Long story, personally known event that irritated the who knows what out of me at some point since third grade.) and cars kept splashing water on all but me, I threw mine at the ground near the front of the school where it bounced then exploded, we got to the ‘Big Side’ of the play ground (at the time I was there for third grade and older only), I was trying to brush the dirt and stuff off of my hands, I saw some people I knew, talked to them, suddenly I was out of my body and I was Bella Swan..., we were going to do something that was my idea, Rosalie said only if she could taste ‘my’ blood, Edward got sort of mad, Carlisle said ‘ok’ and took out a needle and syringe from somewhere, he ordered Alice to watch the future to make sure nothing bad happened, ordered Edward to make sure no one thought of doing anything bad to me (if you don’t know, he’s a mindreader), Jasper left the room because of his ‘control issues’ (no offense to Jasper fans or otherwise), ‘I’ explained about something a while ago about a person having to take my blood and something about it hurt and that was why I was scared, but then said ok and they were about to poke me with the needle when I woke up.
1/2/2008
Something about batteries, the school bus and Nintendo DS games.
1/5/2008, 6:10 AM
Our house suddenly moved to Forks Washington (not that far to go, about 2-5 hours away but odd, just the same...) and it was on the Cullen's side of the boundary line. Near the end someone was talking about someone not being able to do something because of a sabbeth/savat. Someone was also about to break the treaty and nearer the end I saw a picture in my mind of a pyramid from the top. There was a power outage, but before that my parents, sister, and I were going to watch a movie. There was this old man that lived in one of the few houses around ours and he was talking to us and the Cullens about something. The 'wolves were also about to fight the Cullens. I think Bella was there and maybe Sam, listening to the conversation.
1/12/2008, 7:37 AM
Was at my house, Bella was a vampire, Cullens and Quileute’s were there, Bella was first to detect ‘wolves, I had a/the plastic pipe thingy as a weapon, Jacob (Black) was halfway between his body and Jacob Stewart’s even though it was his (Jacob Black’s) voice, near end of dream I attacked Jacob with pipe thingy because Edward told me to, Jacob and others were hiding in the upstairs bathroom, all Cullens but Edward were hiding, we poofed into a cabin on a lake side where I was threatening Jacob with the pipe thing and he had a horsetail (the plant) pole at the end and I attacked Jacob for revenge about something, I snapped his pole, he said good job, then the dream ended and I woke up.
1/16/2008, 4:00 AM
I dreamed something bad had happened to the wizards or just Nita, Tom, Carl and Kit. Nita was depressed about something and her wizardry was partly there, partly gone. Dairine lost Spot and her connection to the mobiles’ world, as well as her wizardry being half gone. Everyone still had their memories, but it was like a modified Pullulus(sp?). I was inside of Dairine’s mind for a while. She dreamed she was a cowboy-wizard (Don’t. Ask. I don’t know what it was, but it made sense, I just can’t remember it.) and was about to push herself out of the dream, the, half asleep, she thought ‘Maybe that’s a good thing…’, meaning that while awake she couldn’t really use her wizardry, but when she was partially asleep where her mind was able to accept things better and was believing it she was affected. Because of that she was able to do a few very simple spells, along with being able to coherently use the Speech for a short time. I think something else important happened, but I know not what. Then I woke up.
1/20/2008, 4:29 AM
I was a wizard, Nita and the others were here at my house, Nita had gotten her manual differently, she had a relative come over, he found out about wizardry, Nita told him how she got her manual; Tomaz (from The Magickers) was a senior, he told his crows to find each new wizard; I was looking through my manual at some point, near the end as Nita was explaining I was also in her mind, I think I got my manual from a used book store like Kit

That was really long, but now I will post normaly. Won't do that again, sorry if it caused any trouble for *someone*. I have the weirdest dreams, and a whole lot of them are Influenced... Ah, well, lyf thwi cegra.

I guess my post will look extra tiny now - anyway...

I had this dream tht I was in a school (not my own, I didn't recognize it) and there were about eight people (students). We had to run into a classroom because the building was filling with hydrogen, and we had to keep openning the door real quick to let someone in (usually went out to rescue someone else). Someone told us we had to go on stage and tell what was happenning. Then we were getting on a bus (my ister shows up next to me). Our bus is the only one with people. The driver says something like you can go if you don't want to do that (stage thing?). We end up letting someone of in a train station, except we drive through it first. Then I woke up...

Isn't that the wierdest wierdest dream?

I haven't reallly had izard dreams - I probably have, but I don't remember any.

I might have had a Harry Potter one once?...

A couple of nights ago: Harry Potter, Death Eaters, Monks, Yu-Gi-Oh, bubble gum, EFDSoL; Ever Filling Drinking Straw of Light- need I say more?

That sounds like a dream that I had two months ago...only it also had marine life and guacamole in it. I think the marine life was eating the guacemole, but I'm not sure...

I don't know what mine counts as, probably just odd. I borrowed three (guitar) picks from my oldest brother, and he said "make sure you don't bend them (so they don't return back to the original shape)". Somehow, that induced this dream where I was disfiguring the picks beyond what is physically possible (making them end up a lot longer, bend, and ready to break into five pieces). I only remembered about it a few days later.

I also had this weird one a while ago where I was able to run from here to Diagon alley in around 2.5 seconds (don't ask me how I got across the water, or through the enchanted wall) right up to Harry Potter so I could talk to him. Now that I recall, I think it was after I saw one of the movies...

Harry Potter Dreams... kind of common... also I had this one REALLY awesome dream where i was in LOTR and I remember the ringwraiths and Frrodo and people.... It was pretty awesome.

I had this odd dream last night...only I can't remember it! Something about mugglenet, I think...or maybe it was mugglenet interactive. I think I remember something about a copy machine, but that might have been from another dream.

Okay... I had a dream where my brother went fishing with the boy scouts. There, he caught a giant catfish (about 9 feet long). To cogratulate him, me and my family went to an expensive restaurant. Because there was no room for me at the table, I had to go and sit with my two friends who had just gotten back from grenfelzing (go chocolate). While there, this old man got confused and offered me a $10,000 check if i caught another giant catfish (he should've gotten my brother). Then, somehow I got in trouble, and a waiter came and told me to follow him. He took me back to the kitchens, which suddenly turned into a picture of pure terror. And then I woke up.

I had such an interesting dream last night! It was YW related, only I wasn't one of the book characters, or just someone watching silently, I was a part of the story! It was so much fun, you can't even believe how much fun it was!

Nita and Kit were being forced to work seperately, and I was Nita's assistant, sort of. I helped her out where she needed it. We were doing something with time travel and/or alternate universe exploration, while Kit was doing something with dream translating (as if they were working with the other's specialty, and not their own).

It was as if I was giving Nita advice on some things, though I can't remember what.

I remember that Kit's path crossed with ours, and on complete impulse (and because she was happy to see him), Nita kissed him, shocking them both. I mean, after that moment, you could simply sense the tention between them.

I remember the dream ended with everyone at my aunt's house, for some reason.

A couple nights ago, I dreamt that I was at swim team pratice. The practice was of medium dificulty, not extremly dificult or easy. I was just swimming freestyle when I suddently stopped swimming. I one armed stroked (with my right arm) to the wall and pulled myself out of the pool with my roght arm only. (I dreamt this dream like I was watching it from the outside not experiencing it.) That's when I saw that my right arm was hanging lower than normal - I had dislocated it. I walked up to my coach (very calmly - surprisingly) and told him that I think that my arm is dislocated. He had lifeguard training so he popped it back in. I sat out for the rest of practice with ice on my shoulder.

That's not the wierdest part. The next day at practice my shoulder really hurt. It didn't pop out, but it did really hurt. It got a lot worse but then, when I went to a PT, he said I'm fine - in case you are concerned.

Last night I had a dream that my friends and I drove to this thrift store and started shopping, but as soon as we went to climb into the car again, a huge wave swept over the whole area, and our car turned into a boat. This is weird for more reasons than one, one of them being that none of my friends are old enough to drive...

kk: have you watched chitty chitty bang bang lately? Do you even know what movie that it?

Since i am commenting here, well if i remembered my dream i would state it, but i usually never remember my dreams, unless something really big happened. Sorry no cool freaky dream here today... maybe tomorrow.

I saw that movie once...three years ago. I can't really remember much of it.

All I remember from last night's dream is that someone was trying to pronounce my last name. Again. And again. Without success. I don't even remember who it was.

My dream last night was odd. It has many “parts” to it but I recall only one part clearly. I was in my youth opera chorus (yes, I sing opera) and Maestro DeRenzi (the big cheese) was sitting with us for some reason. I realized that there was no place to sit except next to DeRenzi and my stuff was already next to him. Without caring about acting rude, I grabbed my bag and music and moved toward the end of the row of chairs and sat on the ground. Soon, Maestro Inoueye (the not so big maestro) started to play the piano and I sang a trio with Melody and some new girl. It sounded really pretty and Maestro DeRenzi said something smug but I don’t remember.

Later, a girl I hardly know, Caterina, said to my friend Earl (don’t know why he was there) and me that she was quitting opera and stormed out of the opera house in tears. I then told Earl that I was sad that she left opera. He started acting like, well, Earl, and said that I shouldn’t dress the way I do and that it’s always too fancy--like I’m trying to impress someone (him maybe). I got mad at him and slapped him.

After opera my two close friends Katie and Amanda and I went to the movies or something. I don’t really remember much else. I know that there was a bath
