Last night I dreamed I was in this really nice pub and Derek Acorah was there. As usual he ignored everybody and sat in the other room in the pub and nobody was talking to him because he thought he was better than everybody else. I decided that treating him like that was wrong so I went over and said "Hello I'm Shirley" just like that. And I shook his hand and he seemed surprised that someone was talking to him. Then he said he would do me a reading but he had to get into character. So we left the pub and went to a council estate and out on the street, he changed clothes into some mad dirty old tramp and kept rubbing some jewel or other and talking in riddles, and laughing because I couldn't work them out. Then he danced off clicking his heels together. I was left dazed and confused. Then this weird thing happened to me, my whole body started feeling all tingly and warm and something told me I was turning into someone else, and a voice asked me "Aren't you scared?" And I replied "No, I want to know what happens." It asked again "Aren't you scared?" I replied "Yes, a little!" and the feeling continued, and my mind was changing and my body was changing and I felt like this other person (I know who this person is).
is the other person, shirley? is it the person you feel yourself becoming? lets face it if you are going to Hollywood to sell a script, it will change you, you will be exposed to some bizarre influences, and people close ot you will at some point accuse you of 'changing'.
Andlets face it, what I have read here of Derek Acorah, if he has come out and said he is Psychic on TV, he is facing ridicule and being shunned by some people, so yes he would be suprised that someone would treat him as normal, however inside, maybe he does feel like a crazy pauper still.....
I had a reoccurring dream in which I change bodies and sex oddly enough. But last nights dream was a really profound experience. I actually felt that I had become this person, and I was thinking their thoughts and feeling their feelings and I was in communication with someone or something and it was asking me if I was scared? As though whoever it was, was showing me how to do it.
struck me that most actors are left handed and so I beleive that by that part of the brain being dominant their is a certain 'calling' to the thespian outlet.
If your ambidextrous then maybe you are torn between the two. Obviously a creative literate streak has found an outlet. That you dream so many times of becoming another 'person' seems to show a stifulling of that side of your brains functioning and so the 'outlet' is being provided by your dreams.
Maybe your next screenplay should suggest YOU in the starring role?
I know this sounds odd but when I change like that, it is as though I am changing into a male... right, that sounds weird doesn't it? Yet in my conscious waking moments I am all female, for heavens sakes, someone thinks I have a crush on Nostro! Ha ha ha!
