 20241119 I awoke from bed, where I  slept on my side. My one breast engorged with milk and leaking. I felt the bed. It was wet, and a quick look showed a green, wet spot. My breastmilk was green.

20240820 I can't remember the dream contents except I was staying in a cottage and so was Spritz. He has a strange diet and I had trouble following what he ate and was allowed to eat by choice. He was sweeping in the foyer and I decided to help him.

20240730 Cookie and I went to an outdoor bar with our high school friends. I think there was a festival because most of our friends went exploring. Even though I am in my third trimester of pregnancy, I was mixing a drink for Amaretti. It was a light yellow, sweet cocktail. I brought it to him, who was comfortable on an outdoor sofa, and Cookie was sitting near him, chatting. Cookie showed me his phone. There was a text message chat open. He told me this lady was texting him, and seemed interested in getting to know him. I felt a pang of fear and grief. I didn't tell him, but I worried she was going to steal him away from me. In her profile picture, she was young and beautiful, and Cookie is a more than wonderful person.

20240525 I went with Cookie's aunt's immediate family to a club his grandfather use to visit. It was full of seniors of different races and ages, though everyone was older than seventy. On this day, they were having a party - a potluck was laid out across a long table in this small hall.


Grandfather stayed home while Aunt's family and I went in his place. When we arrived, Aunt picked up a paper plate and began filling it with food. The rest of us followed suit. The others stopped what they did and stared. We felt self-conscious, so we left the party, bringing our plates with us. 
-------------------------------
I was with another boy, but I wasn't in my body. I had dirty blond hair, tied in a ponytail and a proportionately slim body. This boy wouldn't give me what was in his hand, and I wanted it, terribly. I kissed him. It was soft and sweet. He relaxed his teasing posture as I took the item from his hand.

20240512 i met my neighbour who lives beside my house. He was black with tight, black curls that fell freely into the shape of an afro. In his arms was a toddler of two years of age, who shared the same tight, black curls. We spoke for a bit before i excused myself because i was on my way to the hospital.

My child came our with black skin and tight, black curls. I was confused and scared. This was our baby, but didn't resemble Cookie or i. I took the baby for a walk in a stroller to think, and stopped on a snowly hill. I climbed the snow hill as I did as a child and thought on the top why our baby was different. I feared Cookie would think I cheated on him, which I didn't. I came back to baby to find they had froze to death on this cold winter day. I cried.

20240511 [nsfw warning] i was with a small company of men who were robbing a small tribe of people. When the chief of this indigenous tribe was brought to our leader, he demanded he show him his wife. Beside the leader was an elaborately dressed woman with dark skin in flowly light blue robes and golden jewellery. Somehow our leader knew this was not his true wife, but a concubine. Another woman, with darker skin wore only gold bangles on her arms and legs, was brought to our leader. Somehow my company knew she was his true wife. She cried in protest as the men laid her on a table, and screamed in terror as my leader began to pull down the front of his pants. To my horror and disbelief, he raped her in front of everyone.

I remember pieces from my dreams.
Cookie had to help set up for a formal function in a mall, so I went for a walk inside a department store. I saw a mustard-coloured hoodie and really wanted to buy it. After taking it to the cashier, someone from my country and the formal function commented on my purchase as I was leaving the store. I stipped by a bench to put the hoodie away and saw I spent $69 dollars just for the hoodie. Thr fabric was thin and I decided it wasn't worth the purchase. Cookie found me on the bench and I showed him the hoodie, and that I'd like to return it. He walked with me to the entrance, where an asian man in a grey suit had a point-of-sales machine. I told him my intention, and as he upsettingly looked at me, he looked over the hoodie and commented on why would I return it. I felt ashamed. He made me feel ashamed.

On a snowy, winter day, I walked to my old workplace where I was a light packager. In my hand was an application form, filled and signed. I carefully crossed a bridge and into the building. The sun hadn't risen yet.
Inside, I found my old supervisor, surrounded by some old and new faces. I handed the form to her, but she smiled and said I don't need one and she'll take care of it. I went into the warehouse hall and took a seat across from two younger boys - one fashioned in emo attire. Then I began to doodle on the back of my paper.
