last night i fell asleep on my couch and had very odd dreams. apparently this infomercial came on about some makeup, so i was dreaming i went with someone to a seminar on putting on foundation. then i had a dream where i was ina group talking to people, and a guy (who i knew apparently) offered for me to go live with him in iowa or something for like a month just to see how i would like it. the background on that could be this article about moving to the midwest that i had read at the end of last year. that sounds so cool, just to move somewhere like that. well anyway, the idea intrigues me, but i’m not sure if i’d like it enough. the moving to iowa for a month would be kind of fun though, get away from my job and meet new people. i remember seeing a segment on cbs sunday morning where they profiled the iowa state fair. its like a whole other life to me, i didn’t grow up knowing how to raise pigs or having my mom enter pie competitions. i guess it just shows how diverse this country is where it can be such drastic changes from one state to another or one region to another.

i went to see ‘the graduate’ with my sister today. i think it was the first live action play i had seen in over 2 years, probably longer. they changed the ending plus they had made elaine seem kind of ditzy, but i thought it was quite good. the music of course was great. i grew to like simon and garfunkel after seeing the movie. morgan fairchild totally nailed mrs robinson. she even had the raspy voice and everything, and of course everyone gave them a standing ovation at the end. so i guess i felt for two hours like i was in new york with seeing a play in a big theatre and not a community production. maybe some day soon i’ll get to go.
