Coffee at the Cafe Nervosa (Mai Yuen's Diary)

Woke up this morning feeling like rubbish, the reason being that I slept like rubbish. My dreams have been very unpleasant of late and today was no exception.

It was horrible. I was bolted down to some sort of high chair. Bolts going through my arms and legs, piercing the flesh, blood streaming out of me from those wounds. I was horrified, to say the least. Then someone force-feeding me letters out of a book, like dry alphabet soup, until I started choking. But they just kept pouring it in, pouring and pouring until I was suffocating. All the while, my shadow is laughing at me. I woke up screaming in sweaty sheets, trying to push whatever it was away from me. It was like Alice in Wonderland by American McGee.

Got breakfast at the hotel, then went sightseeing at the Space Needle, which turned out to be closed. Is it supposed to be green like that? It certainly wasn't green in any of the Frasier TV shows. Then again, it was probably the hallucinations again. Headed down to the Cafe Nervosa in hopes of meeting the famoous Dr Frasier Crane. I had a coffee and a cake because they wouldn't seat me until I ordered, even if I wasn't hungry in the least.

Then, an odd bunch of people came into the coffee shop. I think I hallucinated some of it, though. They sat near me and after some staring (I couldn't help but stare. Their clothes were so strange!), they started talking to me. I learned that their names were Hunter (the blue fellow), Siobahn (a lady wearing fetish clothing - dog ears and a tail) and... well, I can't remember the name of the last fellow, but my did he look weird with his dyed hair. Perhaps some sort of strange subculture people.

Siobahn introduced herself as a, and I quote, "kicker of puppies". After I asked about the ears and tail, I just got openmouthed looks and a lot of whispering, (I caught the word "witch" in it twice) so I took my medication. These hallucinations have to stop. Her ears and tail didn't disappear, but she kept giving me odd looks, so I can safely assume they were hallucinatory.

Her friend, Hunter, tried to give me advice, telling me not to take medication and other such things. But what does he know? He probably doesn't scream out loud in public for no reason, or go beserk and attack his own computer screen with the mouse because he thought he saw a magical talking rat on it. Honestly, he's just like an angmoh. Trying to fix everyone's problems without knowing anything about it.

Siobahn later introduced herself to me (again) as Paige. She seemed interested in my problem and gave me her number, which makes two numbers I've recieved in the past two days. She had some insights to my condition that I'd never expected someone who wasn't me to know, so perhaps she's suffering from the same thing, or maybe she's a psychiatrist.

I'll probably call her sometime in the future. Maybe she can help.

I met bumped into Tristan from yesterday in a pub by the Waterfront. What kind of person goes to a pub to drink water anyhow?
