Okay, people, I'm going to be up in Tahoe until Sunday night. However, this doesn't necessarily mean hiatus, as I'm bringing Tabi-kun (my laptop) along and there's wireless up there. It's more a matter of whether I'll have time to be doing internet stuff or not. I'll probably have some time because my cousins go to bed fairly early, and I don't. I like spending time with them when I can, though.

I had a dream last night that I talked to dad, and he somehow decided that it would be better to just go to one of the Pokémon Centers in Japan instead of leaving getting the Pikachu DS to Gin. So we arrived there with no memory at all of a plane ride or anything. We also didn't have to find the Pokémon Center, as it was apparently right in front of us. When we got in the building, there was a lady saying that we had to buy two items in order to get the Pikachu DS for $150--otherwise it was $450. I went looking around, but was astounded to find there was way more non-Pokémon stuff (like Disney, random cartoons, other stuff I don't like) at the Pokémon Center than there was Pokémon stuff. I was very disappointed by this. I found a Pikachu umbrella I planned on buying, but when I got to the register, the lady said she'd just give the DS to me for the discounted price. So I bought it, and then asked if we were going to stay the night in Japan. My dad said yes, and we headed off for a Japanese mall. I remember thinking I had heard the name of the mall before, and I deduced that it was the mall Gin went to.

This is where the dream got very surreal. I think Zoe was with us, and we were...able to slide on the floor really well, almost like we were roller skating, but just with our feet and not dangerous or anything. Plenty fast, though. Anyway, Zoe and I and this group of boys were sliding around the mall at a really fast pace--racing and such. It was incredibly fun, just whipping through the halls at a breakneck speed, turning abruptly, and such. X3 I kept ending up in the back rooms/janitorial areas of the mall, and the places I wasn't supposed to go. At one point I got lost with this random guy, and we went into a room in this narrow hallway. It was a surgical room--very eerie-looking because it was so white and sterile and filled with strange tools and a creepy, almost alien atmosphere. There were dramatic black, human-shaped shadows on the walls and ceiling. The floor was also tilted and uneven. We were walked around in the room for a short while, and then I turned around and discovered some mangled arms and stiff hands peeking out through the top of a white sheet (which was presumably covering a corpse) on top of this strange table. When the guy and I saw that, we got really creeped out and high-tailed it out of there.

I can't really remember much else about the dream. Interesting, though.
