ok so last night i dreamed about a desert motel with a $350 a night painting suite

i'm sorry i never came back to finish this
both because
now it's really hard to remember
and because
i found it a fascinating dream
i tried to do some research
but
it just didn't help me remember
any better

in the dream
i was staying at this motel
which was famous
for being used in some television show
i had these lucid moments in the dream
where i tried and tried to figure out which one
swinging from love american style (watched at 5) to SNL
but i think it might have only been
in the dream framework itself
that it was used in a television show

the history of the place kept rolling over in layers
and at one point i thought it might even be
the joshua tree inn or something
except
they kept saying it was in phoenix
that's why it had been found for the show
because everyone goes through phoenix
and the wallpaper was
some tripadellic 1970's organic metallic mylar
i couldn't get enough of it

and i wasn't in just the one suite
or just one person
for that matter
it was like beeing steeped in the juice of the motel

but that painting suite was huge
and slightly ramshackle
as most paining spaces i've seen tend to be
and the paint was in this octagonal fish tank
modified to contain the paint in a multi layered rack
it's hard to describe
in a way that makes it sound
like it was
