Last night was terrible. I went to bed enthusiastic at the thought of having to read for school Baudelaire, Rimbaud and other such stuff that I was going to read for pleasure anyway. It wasn't long until my mum called me in the balcony to see something... I was very freaked out when I saw a handful of enormous rays of lights coming from somewhere behind the nearby block. It could have been the laser show of some funky discoteque, but there's no disco around and the only thing that has some kind of projectors is a furniture showroom, but they don't have that many projectors (not to mention the projectors are only for illuminating the facade of the building). The rays of light weren't extremely intense and weren't spread in all the directions. Yes, there was something that moved them, but they weren't rotating, rather moving within a certain range (like a programmed laser show). But the very dubious position of the source and how they were moving... it felt like a nightmare brought into reality. That's why I didn't stayed long - so that this reality won't be braked. After a session of dreaming, I woke up... What happened next was something that I could mark as "lucid dream" or "hallucination" if it wasn't real. Unfortunately, it was real. At first, I thought the supposed UFO took off or another explanation like that, but it was a thunder... For 1 or 2 hours there was an unbelieveable rain, with thunders/lightnings at every 5 seconds (!) and a tempo at some point that would suggest a flash flood... At some point, I returned in the balcony - it wasn't as terrible as it seemed so, and the thunders seemed a bit far from us... I can assure you though that, at some point, the thunders were close enough to activate some alarm in the parking lot. After a lot of struggle, I managed to fall asleep again as the rain ended, but, when I woke up again, another rain with thunders started. Luckily, I could hear further and rarer thunders, so I was able to close my eyes with the sound of the raindrops in the background. (I still find it quite strange though that, in spite of the thunders I've heard, I couldn't see any clouds in the case of the second rain...) When I finally woke up this morning, everything seemed back to normal. This morning though some strange events happened as well. As I was writing this blog post, there was a sudden blackout, but I found out that there were some tests with the nearby electrical facility. So, here I am. What's really strange though is that my mum, although switching off the appliances before the light went on again, seen the TV from the kitchen and the air purifyer from the living room turning on when the so-called blackout was over even though they were previously off... Weird. I'm quite afraid of what madness might happen in every moment... I just don't know what else to say..
It's called "Bed" and it's a compilation of rare tracks from Lost Balance, one of my favorite trip-hop bands. It's in a very limited edition (only 2 copies left! :o ), being initially a self-released CD-R. I really love the tracks, the 10+ dollars I've shelled out were more than worth it.
