Not Purple

The other night I had a dream and what I remember from it was the empty stone whales. They were life-size, and sometimes they would fill up with water and bacteria and drown, but the new ones and the ones with tops that were closed well floated, even though they were stone, because they where filled with air inside. It was a giant park. I was looking at it from above and there was a really clear river flowing through, but it wasn't horizontal, it went up, like solid bricks of water, somewhat like an aquarium without glass. There was beautiful coral and seaweed growing in the river, and a boardwalk throughout the park. I also remember some friends taking funny photos in a bathroom; making faces at the camera and standing in ridiculous poses, but I only remember Louisa being there, though I know there were more. She was wearing a costume, it was black and red. Also I'm pretty sure CIA agents were somehow involved, or maybe the mafia.


Also Inka helped me dye my hair. Osya and I went to sleep over at their house and that night we went to the pharmacy to get dye. The only purple dye they had was "Spalt".
1) Bleach for an hour (not all my hair, there was only enough in the bottle to cover about a third)
2) Dye it in "Lusty Lavender" for an hour (there wasn't enough bleach to cover all my hair)
3) Wash it out and watch most of the dye come out (it didn't stick)
4) Sleep
5) Decide if I want to keep the pink, copper and natural hair (it was still nice, but I was set on purple)
6) Bleach/Dye with Llongueras "Violin" which Inka had brought from Spain for an hour (even though it said 35 min)
7) Wash it out.

It still isn't purple. 









































Today nothing exciting happened; had my weight and height measured, blood taken and answered a bunch of questions. Physical. Haven't had one since before college. I also met with Eames at Copley yesterday and we got froyo at the Red Mango and walked around Newbury Street (that's when the photo is from.)

Tonight is the third (and last) night of filming with Sara and a few of her friends. We have been shooting at the Newton Library from library closing time to when the lights go out (9-12) about four kids who are meeting up during the summer after being at college for a year. They grew up in a really Christian town and there is a whole thing set up around strawberry cigarillos (thin cigar; no filter and you aren't supposed to inhale.) as a rather pathetic attempt to be cool.  I play the girl girl who brings the cigarillos and is trying to convince everyone that "we are the same people we used to be...just cooler"
