Dreamorama

All from last night. I’m sure there were more.

I dreamed that I was shopping for a dress to wear to the holiday part at work. I was at big girl heaven, and a friend from work was telling me they had already been over the stuff. I found one dress that was red and white and black, and it was very busy. We decided it was too much when we found that it had that eyelash lace on it. I couldn’t find anything there, but I was really looking.

Later, I went shopping at a big department store with my family, and they were all ready to go, but I needed to find something. I was distracted by the lacy things. The family got bored and went off on their own. I remember food being involved.

I was with the kids, and we were at some kind of entertainment venue, and we found a little cottage-type thing for kids to play in. Each room in the cottage was a different theme, all geared towards the youngest’s age group. Dora, Diego, Princesses, etc. We weren’t sure we wanted to take her in there, because we might never get her out, but we wandered around and she was very excited.

I was with the kids in a bookstore or library, and I was searching around for some books. We started messing around, and then we were playing tag in this place, running through really narrow rows while the oldest chased us on some kind of vehicle. We weren’t sure she could make it through the rows. It was fun.

We all scream for ice cream

Ice Cream was the star last night. I laid in bed this morning going over the dream, but I may have waited too long to transcribe it. I remember that he and I were together, perhaps in a bar, and he took me home, and I was very excited about the possibilities, and then he told me it was just so I would have a place to sleep, no sex involved. It was sad.

Now I remember, he was an apartment manager, and he took me and someone else up to his apartment. It looked like old lady or old bachelor decor. But he had a big 52" flat screen tv. He said that he had just won another tv, and I said that I was going to need a tv, and I would really like to have one of those. He told me he would sell it to me for $5. I thought about how nice he was to his friends, but disappointed that he just considered me a friend.

That dream made me remember this one from weeks ago. I was in a house and it was the annual day where they trashed the house. These guys had developed a tradition that on one's birthday, they just trashed the place. They had beer and food, and it was a big party. I walked into the house and they were burning things and taking baseball bats to tile and things. Everyone was having a lot of fun, and no one seemed to be bothered by the destruction. By the end, most of the distinguishing features of the house had been reduced to rubble, and I had a hard time finding a drink amongst the ruin.

I was talking to a girl, she had a daughter young and had given it to her mom to raise. I worked with her mother, who was rushing around the diner she runs as her daughter was telling me her story. She told me the plan was for her to give up her daughter to her mother, and then move away. She never could do it, though, and now she wanted to keep her daughter, but she didn't think her mother would approve. I tried to convince her that some women come into their maternal instinct later than others.

I moved into another room, an old friend and his friend were there, I had given them shelter. I'm not sure what I was protecting them from, but they were hiding out until the danger had passed. I went to speak to my old friend, who had separated himself from everyone. He had gone to a room full of babies. It was a kind of daycare. I teased him about looking for peace in a room full of crying children. We had a laugh about that. I said goodbye to him. I hugged him, and I knew it was a few moments too long to be polite, but I knew it was the last time I was going to see him.

I was walking out the door, and I say a guy I know from work, and they were talking about how attractive I am. His friend said they my mouth was delectable (or something along those lines.) I was impressed, because he was a baseball team guy (?). I got close to them as I walked out the door, and work guy grabbed me and kissed me firmly on the mouth. He seemed to be convinced by baseball guy's enthusiasm for me.

A dream worth noting

I dreamed of sexy pirate, he was in my class, I wanted his beautiful wavy hair. We were both students. In order to seduce him, I planned to play porn to excite him. He was out of the classroom, so I prepped the video. It was cued, and every time I flipped over to it, I flipped back very quickly, because I was in a room full of people and it was inappropriate. I don’t think that I ever showed it to him.

Somebody's getting married

He was getting married. I was there. They were holding the event at a property my family owned. We kept gravitating towards each other, being in the same place, talking with our heads close together, and his family would come trooping through, or the bride to be (some faceless, bumpy creature) would come in and I’d have to move away. It was a prolonged dance. I believe, in the end, that they ended up getting married despite my urgings to the contrary.

The Big Easy

NOLA gave me the weirdest dreams.

One night, I dreamed that we were all in the quarter (all the women in the bridal party) and we had been hitting bars all night. CC was in her wedding gown, and it was getting crowded, so we were looking for another way to get to a bar all the way down the street. Some guy that worked in the bar showed us the back way, a long, white hallway with wooden floors. We traveled down the hall until we came to a huge open space with golden wood floors and high ceilings. They were doing construction on this, so there was saw dust everywhere and they were using saws and such, but they said we could come through. We went toward the door, and as we went back out into the quarter, I carried CC over the threshold.

The others have escaped me for a moment, but I did have a really interesting dream last night. It seemed to go on forever. Johnny Depp, in full pirate gear
