And I am dreaming in blood-red color

[sovay]

This morning I had nightmares so bad I had to look at my cellphone to see whether they'd happened. If it was Saturday, they hadn't; if it was Sunday, they had. It was Saturday, so I fell back asleep and dreamed I had tickets to a production of Julius Caesar that was about two-thirds the one Harriet Walter is currently starring in, but the events of the first nightmare had still happened. I am waiting for e-mails and worried about technology. I am sleeping hours less than I have since before Florida and dreaming badly when I do.

I need to write something.

whenever that person bled, the blood itself would chase whoever was nearest, trying to infect them. Soon, we were all strangling each other.

It's probably just the wedding and the blood, but I'm reminded of Vindice's flashback in Alex Cox's Revengers Tragedy (2002). The conscious contagion, though, is very much the sort of thing I think you'd write even if awake.

Yes, that's true. It had a large stink of Vincenzo Natali and/or David Cronenberg at the time, as I recall. Still haven't seen The Revenger's Tragedy.
