Two Dreams: Drought and Colour

[cremains]

I dreamt that the world was dying of drought. I lived with H. and the stepkids and we were in the final stages, all lying on the ground and waiting for the end. The government had a small amount of water available by lottery for children only, but the stepkids had lost the draw. I wasn't scared or upset, just drained.

In another dream, I improved a black and white oil painting I did by adding a layer of unrealistic colour. When I woke up I tried it - I don't have oils beyond lamp black and china white, so I used watercolour, which was better anyway because the tints are transparent and the resistance between media was something I could use. Is it great? No. But the dream was right that it is actually marginally better.

Wow, what a great painting!

Dream wisdom is awesome (when it isn't killing us and our loved ones).

Hah, thank you.

In defense of the first dream, at least it wasn't actually urging death by drought, just describing it...

Hey, incidentally... do you still have an mp3 of Prince singing "The Pope"? Such a great song and I somehow misplaced my old copy.

It's an .ogg, but yes, I have it. Shall I email it to you? Do you still use divine might (at) hotmail (dot) com?
