Proof I'm Still Obsessed

Somebody Stop Me

Update 04/09/07:

There you were again
literally dropping in on my dreams
and after that you dominated
and I didn't want to wake up

breathing fresh into who I am
making me wonder
did you dream of me
and wonder who I was?

I dreamed about them again this morning. I pushed my way through a crowd to the stage, and some were being allowed on the edge of the stage itself, so I hopped up there too. Joe was singing and the others jumped down until only I was left and he turned his head to look at me and then I jumped down too.>snap< I am standing in a hallway, people are passing by me and suddenly he literally drops in front of me, and meets me eye to eye and smiles. The wonderful feelings rushing through me are so powerful they wake me up, and then I desperately spend the next hour trying to get back to sleep and pick up that dream.

Update 05/05/05:Another Dream

I must be getting ready to see them NEXT MONTH! I had a dream this morning where they were up on a stage just a few feet away from me. I had a feeling I helped set it up somehow. Joe was talking to the other guys, smiling, looking fantastic as usual, so close if he turned his head towards me and I spoke he would hear me and look directly at me...and then >snap< the gig was over, and I along with the crowd was making my way out of the venue. I was chastizing myself for not speaking up and missing yet another opportunity to meet them. >snap< I was home, it was three days later and suddenly I remember Joe's face and frustration and self disgust make me lose my composure and I start crying bitterly.
I wake up in this quasi-meloncholy state. On one hand I am still upset at myself and my shyness, because I know that my dream is accurate on that count, but also elated, because I got to see the band again, up close, as if I WAS REALLY THERE, and IT WAS REALLY THEM. (big smile) Still obsessed after all these years....

Update 07/26/2005:
The name of this webpage is "proof I'm still obsessed", well, what happened at the concert in OKC proved to me that when it comes to Def Leppard I am not in control of my body at all. In a way I lived out the "prophecy" of the above dream, and I am still angry with myself for missing another opportunity. You'll have to read that on my Concert Adventures webpage.

See, I told you it was an obsession.
