Be Careful What You Watch Before Going to Bed
That’s the only advice I can come up with after last night’s dream.
I finally stumbled upon “Transgeneration”, a documentary series Keith (Data Jockey) referred me to a few months ago. I never managed to watch it back then, but now it’s appearing on LoGo so I watched 30 minutes or so of it before falling asleep last night.
From what I can gather, there are 4 subjects in this documentary about trans-gendered young people. The two I saw last night were Gabby (Gabbie?) and Raci.
Gabby is a skinny blonde who appears to be in high school. Now, I’m not casting any judgement because I can’t even fathom how difficult it must be to feel like I was born in the wrong body. And I give her credit for dressing like a woman and living her life as she feels she was meant to live.
But, damn, that girl is clingy. I thought my history with dating over this past year had introduced me to clingy people. But this one puts them to shame. She’s ALL OVER her friends. Touching, hugging, pushing and, most often, inexplicably patting them on their heads.
But it was Raci who was in my dreams. Raci is another young transgendered woman taking acting classes. Oh, and she’s also deaf. She’s actually rather attractive and seems really sweet. In this episode, she was rehearsing a scene with a male actor who had no idea the actress he was embracing and kissing was actually a man.
In my dream, I was ordering food from Subway with Raci. That’s it. Nothing scandalous, just bizarre. We were just debating out menu options while waiting in line. HMMM – looking back on it, I think we were on a date.
Oh dear.
I think I need to watch less television.

Did you order a salami sub?
Heh heh heh or was it a Hide The Salami Sub? Heh heh heh.
Ok, look though, I am really demonstrative and I touch, hug, push etc., my friends (although I generally do not pat them on the head – that’s odd-) – do you think that makes me clingy??? I’m just really demonstrative… I thought… maybe I’m more effed up than we realize, excepting of course your superior, overachieving self and your superior overachiving perceptive skills.
I think there’s a difference though between clingy & demonstrative… am I wrong?
Subway? That’s just disgusting. You should dump her for agreeing to go on a date with you there.
Oh, Karyn…no, she was clingy. Even the documentary narrator commented on it (as did nearly every single person Gabby’s knows as they pushed her away).
Poor thing. I really did feel bad.
You, dear Karyn, are not clingy. You’re many things…but clingy is not one of them.
I don’t know anything about that show you mentioned. But, I was so upset to realize that my Alexis Arquette is going to become a girl that I dreamt that he came over and asked me if I would accompany him for his sex change. I agreed. It ended up being me, David Geffen and Parker Posey all in a waiting room. …they were fighting over who could have the member once it was severed. In the dream I tried to explain that “it” would be used as part of the procedure, but they would not listen to me. I was so frustrated in that dream. He was sooo cute. Of course, now I guess he will be really pretty. But, what a “member” to lose. Remember Frisk?
…anyway, in an odd way our dreams are related! Sick, but true!
Matt needs to have his own radio show on Sirius or XM, don’t you think?
David — Are they hiring?
Gabbie’s got way more problems than a sex change could EVER fix. Wait until you see how she treats her parents.
And the big pink elephant we don’t talk about is that Gabbie looks just plain awful as a woman. Hideous. “Fugly” is the term the kids use today, I think.
I stand by my idea that Raci and Apple should be on camera 24/7 Big Brother style. Can I tell you how jealous I am she was in YOUR DREAMS?
Hmm. Have you every thought of writing your dreams down and taking them to a psychoanalyst?
