[the Writing of Kuypers]
I think we had money now
so I went to this public area
and eventually a couple of people
and then John came up
and it wasn’t all breakfast food
and it was really nice of him

Breakfast in Las Vegas
(Dreams 07/06/06 One)
07/06/06
because we were staying in Las Vegas
in a really nice hotel
like a Caesar’s Palace in the Poconos
and it was morning
and I said I was going to go to the public area
where there were pools
and Jacuzzis
and hopefully because it was so early
no one would be there yet
and there were a select few people there
but there were a stream of hot tubs
so I was able to walk around
and find a place to myself
before anyone was taking up every spare inch
of this nice space in this hotel
decided to share the space with me
and yes, it was making me angry
but they started talking to me a little
so i started talking about
how I feel claustrophobic in confined spaces
and we were talking to each other
and it really wasn’t seeming so bad
I don’t know, I think I went there alone
because he was sleeping in
but he came walking over
with a plate full of food
and he said
that he paid a lot of money
to go to their buffett
but he loaded up a plate
with as much stuff as he could
so he could take it away
and share it with me
he had a lot of fruit, yes
but I think hummous was there too
and there was a lot of good exquisite food there
and we were trying to figure out
if we could go back and get more food
like eggs, like breakfast food
since he already paid for his breakfast
and it made me
so
crave breakfast this morning
