Don't Throw Repressed Memory Emily!

vovatSo, classes start again this week. Actually, it's only one class, but I want to do well at it. Doing homework is such a hassle, though. I probably sound like a little kid, but in many ways I haven't changed a lot since then. It's not just that it can be frustrating, but obligations in general just feel like roadblocks in my mind. Stupid obligations. There are so many leisure activities I still want to do! Having a sense of accomplishment is always nice, though.
I keep having the same sorts of dreams over and over again, and I often feel I should write about them, but I always wait too long and forget most of the details. I know that last night, I had yet another dream about it being my last day of high school, even though I'd already finished college. I remember being concerned about leaving the building because there were a lot of crowds outside. I understand dreams about going back to school are very common, which I guess just shows how much of an impact school has on the subconscious mind. And the night before last, I was in some kind of extracurricular program or something, but I was behind everyone else, and they kicked me out of it without even telling me. I had to hear about it through the proverbial grapevine. For some reason, this was very upsetting. One theme that constantly recurs in my dreams is that of being powerless. Come on, that's how I feel in my everyday life! Can't I have a little bit of slack when I'm asleep?
The most recent Simpsons episode felt kind of weird. Homer strangling Bart has been a running thing on the show so long that it's a little bizarre for someone to actually take a realistic attitude toward it. There were some good moments, especially near the beginning, but it wasn't one of the better episodes even for this season. And I have to suspect they purposely paired this episode with the American Dad one, which also had a father afraid of his son. Really, though I don't have a whole lot to say about any of these shows. I think I used up my reviewing capacity on my post about Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, and I now need a recharge.

Aw, she'll never remember it.

American Dad was much better, and I'm glad it was back at 9:30, at least for the time being. Man, I hope Cleveland Show goes away at some point. Maybe they should just bow out and give the entire budget to David Lynch, as he's about the only good thing about that show, and maybe that way he could make an awesome movie.

Speaking of David Lynch, I just watched the pilot episode of Twin Peaks a few days ago.
