death dreams, reading lists

so on saturday night i dreamt i was working with some folks from cornerstone in a funeral parlour. the funeral parlour was in a house ala six feet under, and was meant to feel very homey. maseo from de la was djing, there were dogs running around, and my job was to make sure folks were ushered from one room to another or something like that. i was amazed to find out that cornerstone had been running this funeral parlour for years. it was odd but not disturbing. this girl here said that it meant a new beginning for me - but i wasnt the one who died - i only worked there.. who knows what it meant. but since then, the pope, johnnie cochran, and saul bellow have passed. bizarro. and i just happened to be reading bellow's "the victim" for my jewish lit class (its the 300 pager i complained to some of you about..), crazy cuz i was reading miller's "focus" when he passed earlier this year.. can someone tell phillip roth he's next on the syllabus. ok so i shouldnt joke bout death - but it's a little wierd, huh?
