U2 dreams

I used to have 'em aaaaaaall the time. I had a little plan that would
help them come too. It used to never fail. I'd put 3 U2 CDs in my
stereo, put it on shuffle so it would play continuously all night, then
I'd close my eyes and fall asleep. As I'd sleep, the songs that were
playing would enter my subconcious mind and I'd dream about 'em! Like,
one night a long time ago, I remember dreaming I was in my friend
Natalie's house. We were in the living room and the band was setting up
their equipment. It must have been the early '80s, 'cause Bono had this
ridiculous hair cut and, like, tight checkered pants on. And Adam had a
'fro and Edge had a cheesy lookin' '80s guitar. Anyway, in *real* life,
Two Hearts Beat As One was playing in my room as I slept. So in my
dream, the '80s U2 was playing that song live, in Natalie's living room.
I was so excited in my dream! My own private concert! And the guys
were so young, which meant *I* could have *Bono*. Haha!

Then one night, The Fly was playing in my room as I slept. I was
dreaming I was way in the boonies -had crappy, crappy seats- at a ZooTV
concert. Then, I was able to sneak my way up to the front and I saw my
*mom* and *stepdad* there! As Bono was singin' (wearing a shiny, green,
snake skin Fly suit, might I add), I was gettin' pissed at my parents,
askin' them', "How could you do this?! You're *this* close and you
didn't tell me?? You didn't invite me to sit up here with you?!?!" My
parents just acted like- eh, it's no big deal- and they smiled and
danced on their seats and sang along with Bono (word for word!
Impressive...). The funny thing about these dreams is when the "Bono"
pictured in my head is singing, his lips match up perfectly with the
sounds coming out of my stereo. My dreams are so crystal clear, it's
like I'm watching him sing on TV or in a movie. Trippy.

Anyway, those are just a couple of the dreams that I remember from doin'
this thing with my stereo. Only bummer is.....this whole plan doesn't
work as well anymore. It used to be that when I left my CD player on, I
could count on havin' U2 dreams that night. It was a piece of cake.
And I *looooooved* dreamin' about them. It was like my own little U2
concerts every other night. Man, those dreams seemed super real too!
How awesome. But now......I guess I've just become so immune to having
music on all night, that I can just deeply sleep right on through it.
Whatta bummer!

Well y'all, I'm off. Gonna go ta bed. I'll put some U2 in that stereo
of mine and I'll try it again. *Hopefully* it'll work tonight. We'll
see......

Byeeeee :)

P.S. I went to the U2 laser show tonight!!! Good Lord- it was *great*.
I was in the U2 spirit- even wore my vinyl pants and jacket. :) People
looked at me like I was a freak but......oh well. I still had fun! And
another bitchin' thing about tonight was my friends. They gladly wanted
to listen to U2 on the way to L.A. (whereas they usually go, "OK Nikki,
enough already.") But they sang along with me in the car and even
really enjoyed the show. How cool!!!
