Rose: Pester Jade.
I spoke with Jaspers. I didn't understand what he told me. He said I'll understand once I "wake up". For some reason this made me think of you. hehehe...... yeah i bet hes right! We wouldn't happen to be talking about awakening in a sort of breezy, philosophical sense, would we? Is my dead cat concerned with my enlightenment? Should I prepare to shed this coil of ignorance and suffering? wow no i dont think so... hes being a bit more literal than that! what did he say? I doubt I could reproduce the statements with fidelity. It was like listening to a five year-old describe a dream. The content manages to take a back seat to the simple heartwarming spectacle of the moment. :) well what he meant was..... that you have a dream self who is supposed to wake up whenever your real self goes to sleep we all do! all four of us i mean but see your dream self still stays asleep when you go to sleep because you havent woken up yet! I think I get it. I take it your "dream self" is wide awake when you sleep? yes And would I be out of line in additionally presuming this has been the case for many years, at least as long as I've known you? no you would not be out of line! in fact im asleep now That was to be my next wild presumption. :p So when I wake up, can I look forward to being able to message people in my sleep too? no only i can do that! because of my robot Oh, right. I forgot about your robot. My short term recall seems to eschew the profoundly ridiculous. you guys can probably make your own i guess...... but you need to wake up first for it to matter and maybe by the time that happens you might not even need them!!! I'm not sure if necessity is a concept I'd associate with such a contraption even under some of the more obscure scenarios imaginable. But good to know I guess. Here's another question, which I'm sure will look stupid once I've finished typing it. If my dream self is asleep, does that mean she's dreaming, and if she is, who's dreaming the dream, her or me? um....... ok well i dont really know how to answer the second part but yeah shes dreaming! shes most likely lying in your bed troubled and restless about things burdening her which is to say you!!!!! things about who you really are and what your purpose is but you cant start figuring those things out yet because youre not awake because youre not ready yet thats why you have such terrible dreams all the time rose! Ok. How do I wake up? im sure it would help to start piecing together the clues to nudge your subconscious or maybe face some things you havent faced yet? i dunno! its for you to find out maybe the stuff you wrote on your walls can give you a clue? What stuff? the.... er didnt dave tell you? Tell me what? ._. Are you saying he said I defaced the walls of my room? While not appearing to be cognizant of the scrawlings? Like John? I really hope that's not what you're saying. It might freak me out. he said he was going to tell you <_<; Hold on.
