DREAM: Family cookout in the backyard – my Dad and his side of the family – the house is apparently where they filmed some Tom Cruise movie. There’s a playground. I start climbing the ladder to a blue swirly slide. I get to the top in the compartment where you wait to slide down and the whole thing starts wobbling from side to side as if I was in a big tall building swaying from the wind. I look out and I’m really high. I keep holding onto the edge in different ways. I even attempt to jump out when the slide gets close to the grass. But I couldn’t do it. The slide sways faster and faster. Eventually, I will myself higher. I start to see the darkness of outer space, the stars, the outline of the atmosphere. I want to be up there. I try willing myself higher but I can’t seem to go any further.
4:16 p.m. I wake up.
Guillem is watching SLC Punk (1998).

Blueberries, and Milk. Orange Mango Juice. Zinc and Alfalfa.
Guillem and I go to Alpha…looking for a pick-up for an

Listening to Guillem play the painted guitar.

We show Guillem the beach. The white clouds above us – the
beach lights reflected – peering out in the ocean – only blackness.
Elliott: “Look! It’s the moon.”
Me: “That’s a plane, Elliott.”
