Bees Are The New Spiders

I was having a sleepover party or something with Justin and some other guys. There were superheroes involved somehow. I think we were all supposed to pick a superhero and see if we could become them. I was Batmanuel. Two guys that Justin knew came over looking for their brothers (who i believe were the other people there). They were stoned and wanted a beer. Then, they got all sad because they weren't invited or something. Justin told them he'd invite them next time we play poker.

I was in bed, and there was a giant bee on my ceiling. I threw something at it, and then it started flying around. I wanted to hide under my blanket, but i couldn't move for some reason. That woke me up pretty quick.

If My Potential Boss Knew I Was Dreaming About Him...

Ian = maitenance guy at Kresge (I have an interview with him next week)

I was at my volunteer project in New Zealand but Ian was leading it. We were carrying a lot of plants up a staircase suspended high up over the hill. I felt very unbalanced and I was really afraid of falling off the stairs. As a result, I stayed really low on the stairs and clung to the railing at every opportunity. We got to our destination which was on a beach, and there was a pub right on the shore. Part of my volunteer work involved working as a waitress at the pub.
Later on it was nighttime and myself, the rest of my volunteer group, and Ian were standing in the walkway at the Porter/Kresge Apartments. We went inside a restuarant where they were having some kind of game that involved pawning off women for a night. I was looking at all the girls who were up for the bidding and deciding which one I would want.
Later on we were at a party in someone's apartment and they were smoking a lot of pot.

More Hair Withdrawl

Peanut = my cat

I went to a party with a lot of black people. We had to wear these little knitted things, like bibs, around our necks. I went over into another room and my mom and Charity were there. I was trying to tie my hair up with a bunch of scrunchies. I pulled it into a lot of knots on the top of my head, but it kept flopping over and not working. I showed it to my mom and she laughed at me and said I had to pull it farther back onto my head.
I was having dinner with my mom and Charity, except rather than being in our backyard like we usually are, we were on the sidewalk on Irvine boulevard. They were enjoying their glasses of wine, and they told me I should go get peanut. So I walked all the way down the street back to our house and went into the garage. Apparently Peanut hibernated in the garage for part of the year, but now it was time for him to come out. I went into the garage calling his name. I walked up to the box he was sleeping him, and when I reached in to pet him he got really startled and wolk up abruptly. He stared at me and his eyes were huge and he gave a very angry meow, then coughed.

Oh, Fiona

Charity = family friend
Paula = friend's (Yashar's) mom
Tommy = friend from NZ group

I went to visit Ryan at his house in Isla Vista. It was a very nice house. He lived upstairs in a loft, and I noticed that his room had a drumset, which I thought was kind of wierd. I was really enjoying spending time with him, and he had an empty room in his house that I kind of wanted to move into. At one point we commented on how late it was and I looked at my watch, which said it was two am. I looked outside, which had a view of the beach, and it was like broad daylight. I didn't really think anything of this. I tried to go to sleep, but I had to wake up to help Ryan feed the fifteen or so kittens he was keeping at his house. I couldn't get even amounts of food into each kitten's bowl, and I was concerned about them or myself falling off the balcony we were on.
I was in the ocean with my dad. There were gigantic waves, like fourty feet or so. The ocean was kind of like a lake in the part we were at, just a huge expanse of calm water, but right behind us, these gigantic waves were breaking. My dad was pulling me around on some kind of board, and we were marvelling at the size of the waves. But after a while of sitting there I started to get kind of nervous and told my dad we should move.
Charity had a baby. She was trying to take care of it and I was helping her. I was looking through her website on the computer and it said a bunch of things about her baby.
I was with my mom, only my mom was Paula. For some reason I had to get rid of my clothes so I was walking around naked. I was trying to help my mom/Paula but she seemed reluctant to let me help her. We sat down in a nice restuarant, and I wondered if they would care that I was naked.
I drove to some strange part of my campus, but it was with the people from my NZ group. We were in the parking lot of a big apartment complex. Some people pulled up next to us in a truck. A couple girls and a guy got out of the car. One of the girls took my hand and very seductively told me to follow her. I turned to the people I was with and told them I was going with these people. Tommy asked me how they should pick me up later, and I told him not to worry about it. I went inside this apartment complex, and it was quite impressive. There were tons of people that lived in it, and they all seemed quite social and friendly. I walked out to a balcony in the back, which was covered in grass. It had an incredible view of the city and I just stood there admiring it. Then the girl came back and told me to come into her room. The girl, another girl and the guy were on the bed, and the guy was giving them some kind of instruction about how to have good sex with people. I was watching their interactive lesson, and really wanted to participate, particularily because of the girl who originally told me to follow them. During their lesson, other people would casually come in and out of the room and ask them questions about random things, to which the people involved in the lesson seemed very accustomed to. I realized that this whole apartment complex was themed around some sort of free love concept. I thought that was really bizarre. Eventually, the guy and the other girl left the room. I was left with the girl, whose name was apparently Fiona.
What followed was quite possibly the longest, most vivid, and enjoyable sex dream I have ever had in my life. It was only punctuated by a girl walking into the room and asking Fiona something about a vase, then the girl left, and Fiona and I went back to what we were doing. Fiona was also kind of telling me what to do, which I didn't mind at all, because I was enjoying all of it very much.

Fishing With Billy Bob

I was at the Marquis' house for some reason. As i was laying on the top of the stairs, Billie Van Bogart and Vicky Corbett both passed over me as well as someone else who i don't remember. I went inside at one point, and i was sitting on the couch. Paul Marquis came in and started punching me in the balls. He said that Tim Truett had told him that he should just punch me in the balls for a while and then drag me out to do like ten jobs or something. He didn't seem interested in taking me out to do any jobs. I went back outside, and i was hanging out with Brandon Corbett. His mom (Vicky) came by and gave us a bunch of maps of San Clemente. I guess they were planning some sort of fishing trip for the Youth Group at church because they were talking about a launch point for the boat or something. Brandon didn't like the spot that Vicky was proposing because there wasn't enough parking. Then, he pulled out a map that looked more like Hyrule from Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past than San Clemente and proposed a launch point in the moat around the castle. Billy Bob Thornton showed up, and we went to scope out the new launch point. We took his boat out for a while, and he was trying to figure out how to make this work. He said that if we had less fuel, we'd be able to make it out to the ocean by going under the bridges, but then we might not have enough fuel to get back. I told him we should bring paddles just in case, and he seemed to think that was a good idea. I found a broken oar in the boat, so i started using that as a paddle. I paddled while Billy Bob steered. We got to the docking area, and Billy Bob told us to pull up next to one of the docking points, but as soon as we did, he started yelling, "No! not there!" I was confused because he JUST told us to do that, but he said something like that we couldn't dock there because it was for rentals only and we were in HIS boat. Some lady came by and asked why he was yelling. He explained to her what happened, and then she told him that not only could we not dock there, but we couldn't have our own boat in the water there at all. I figured that meant our fishing trip was off.

Red-Headed Lady

Chelsea = bitchy roomate from last year
Samantha = little sister

I was in my Dad's house and my family was splitting up and moving to different places. There was a woman with red hair who was with my mom, and trying to convince her to not let me live with them. I was really hurt by this, and started screaming at my mom, who would altrenate back and forth between being herself and Chelsea. My little sisters were there.
I left the kitchen and got into the car with my dad and Samantha. The car was full of stuff, so we were apparently moving to the new place. I apologized to Samantha for letting her see me scream at mom, and I told Sam that I didn't hate her, I just hated mom. I was in the very back behind all of the luggage and other things, and I was getting cholostrophobic, so I asked the rest of them to put a window down. They did, and I could feel the air on me and it felt a lot better.
I was on a ferry trying to go somewhere. We weren't supposed to use the bathroom, but I knew that the ride was three hours and I wouldnt be able to wait. They let me use the captain's bathroom, and I clogged the toilet. This really embarassed me.
I was at a pool and trying to swim across it, but it was difficult because I had a big bathrobe and shoes on. I remembered the last time I had been swimming there, and that it was a lot easier. I got to the other end of the pool and the woman with the red hair was there. We were fighting, and she was scratching at my arms. When I looked down at my arms, there were scratches all over them and they had already scabbed. I was then standing outside of the pool trying to listen to someone talk but I was preoccupied with trying to keep my eye on the woman with the red hair so she wouldn't attack me. I started slapping her in the face, and she eventually fell into the pool.

The physical sensations I had in this dream were extremely vivid. Especially the feeling the air from the car window, and the lady scratching my arms.

Trolley Cars

I believe i was in New York with Justin and some other people. Justin was driving, and i think i was in the back seat with Carley while Kyle was in the front seat. We had just gotten out of this In-N-Out type place, and now we were sitting in the parking lot. Justin was talking to some of his friends on the phone who wanted him to drink, and i got the impression that they were watching him. He didn't want to drink because he was driving, so he said, "quick, gimme my water cup." He put an alcoholic drink up to his lips like he was going to drink it, but then switched it for the water cup and drank that instead. All of a sudden, headlights flashed on right in front of us, and an engine revved up. Justin backed up out of the way, and then they started following us. I could see inside the other car, and it looked like 4 people about our age that were laughing and yelling and stuff. They kinda chased us all over the parking lot, and i was impressed by Justin's ability to avoid hitting other cars in the chase. The car chasing us didn't do as well...Eventually, we left, and i found myself at a hotel, and my mom and sister (lynae) were there. My sister wanted to go somewhere, but it was raining and she didn't have a car. When my mom decided she wanted to go somewhere too, they decided to just walk, and i decided to go with them. We had to go up these long stairs that seemed to have rain-related obstacles at every turn where it would rain more or be raining in weird directions. After we got past that, we found a Trolley station, so my mom got on a trolley. It started moving before my sister and i could get on, so we started running after it to try and catch up. We didn't make it, so we each got on separate trolleys and hoped we wouldn't get split up too much. This turned into some sort of ride, and the trolleys my sister and i were on turned into single-person vehicles. Another woman on a single-person vehicle started bumping my sister, and i thought she was trying to kill her, but after she bumped her, she ended up right next to my mom's trolley, so she could climb right in. I was right behind them, so i tried to pull my self up next to them, so i could climb in as well. As i climbed in, i heard my mom say something like, "haha, 8 feet per slow." I looked at the side of the trolley where it read, "8 mps," and i said, "no, mom, that's 8 METERS per SECOND." I think i repeated the word "meters" a few times, and that's about when i woke up.

Retro Chic

My garage was on fire. A lot of my Mom's things were in the middle of the floor and I was trying to keep the important stuff from catching fire. I had a hose that I used sparingly, only to maintain the fire rather than put it out. There was a box of important things that caught fire for a minute but then I put it out. When the fire finnally went out, this Asian family was there and I was trying to keep them away from the stuff. They had a baby with them that I had somehow helped to save. They got in their green mini van and drove away. My mom came into the garage and I was telling her what happened. I showed her the box and she opened it to find that nothing looked severely damaged. She seemed very calm about the whole thing and was greatful for my help.
I was about to go out with somebody. I went into a woman's shop when it was closed and was looking through her wardrobe. They were all old lady clothes but I decided to wear them in a way that made them look cool in a retro kinda way. I put on a baggy red hippie shirt with a gold vest. I was wearing red lipstick and my hair was back in a ponytail. Someone told me to fix my hair, but I was afraid to wash it because it might come out and then I wouldn't have it anymore.

A Discouraging Theo and A Lot of Women

necklace = i bought it in NZ, means "new begginings"
Matt and Andy = friends from last year, live upstairs from me

Had a dream that Theo told me I couldn't wear my necklace.
Had a dream that I had started smoking cigarettes and they were turning my teeth yellow. Theo pointed it out and said that it looked gross.
I was in a car with Matt and Andy. The person driving was being very wreckless. They drove right into something and a pole came through the car and impaled Matt. I got out of the car and went into a house nearby. There were different girls in each room waiting to have sex with a guy. I went into one room and there were a bunch of girls in there. Apparently they werent waiting for guys exclusively, because one of the girls and I did a lot of "stuff". Some of the other girls sat around and watched, waiting for their turns.

Bowling Bowling Bowling

I was going to give Anastasia and her friend a ride home from the All-nighter, but there was a change of plans. Now, instead of going home, she wanted me to give her a ride to bowling. I said, "We just WENT bowling, you want to go again?" She responded, "Kevin's going bowling, so i want to go bowling." (Kevin is a guy that she liked about a year ago) "Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh," I said, "That makes sense. So where is THIS bowling, San Diego? Because that's probably gonna be too far." She told me it was in Oceanside, so i was debating. Basically, i decided that if i got to bowl with them, and they wanted to go later after we were able to get some sleep, i would do it, but otherwise, no chance.

Ambronesia

Kelsey = girl I played soccer with in middle school

I was walking around with my family trying to get somewhere. We went inside a store with my mom and a bunch of older women. People kept handing me articles of clothing that they thought would look good on me. I eventually ended up wearing a shirt, a big skirt, and some giant boots. I thanked everyone but I didn't want to pay for these clothes because I knew I would never wear them so I put them back.
I was at my sister Sam's birthday party. All of her guests, including myself were upstairs getting ready. There was a professional person there who was doing everyone's makeup and giving them things to wear. The first thing the lady told us to do was line up side by side. When I did this, I got smushed between two people and someone's shoulder smudged my makeup. We all had to wait our turn, and things kept going wrong, like the dresses wouldn't fit right or something. There were a lot of guests, and I was one of the last people to get ready. Finnaly it was my turn, and I already had makeup on but I wanted her to fix it cause that person's shoulder had smudged it. An alarm somewhere went off which meant that there was a criminal in the building. We all started to evacuate.
I was in a grocery store playing some kind of tag game with a bunch of girls. One of them was Kelsey, and I can't remember who else was involved. I kept losing at the game, and Kelsey refused to play and was on her cell-phone in the corner the whole time. I finnaly started winning. Me and this guy were on a team, and we tagged one of the other people, who turned out to be my Dad. My Dad told us that he wasn't playing anymore and he was just doing his grocery shopping. I realized that a lot of people were leaving the game, and this kind of pissed me off because I was finnaly winning.
I was watching people clean a ship. There were a bunch of pirates, and they were trying to clean out these holes on the front of the ship. I was now watching one of the pirates specifically, as if it were a movie, and of corse the pirate was Jack Sparrow. A little pink translucent bug appeared outside of the hole, and then vanished as Jack Sparrow walked up to the hole. He continued cleaning, and then a huge tentacle violently emerged from the hole. This tentacle was part of a legend that all the pirates recognized, and Jack begged the captain to let him fight whatever was in there. The captain reluctantly agreed, and Jack somehow jumped down into a hole that was 1/100th his size. He emerged from the hole with the giant creature, slashing all the tentacles off with the sword. Blood splattered everywhere and the creature died, leaving behind a giant, yellow-white spider. I was now Jack Sparrow, and after realizing the spider was good luck, I picked it up and placed it on my head. It changed to fit the shape of my head, and sat there perfectly. This spider was called Ambronesia and was supposed to protect the one who wore it. I went about cleaning up the rest of the ship, and talking to the spider as I did so. I felt very safe knowing it was there, and began to climb into my bed.

Bad Servers Get Better Tips

I was at a party of some sort with my family. Anastasia was there, and she was acting crazy. There were a lot of other people from the church there. I remember 'Stasia going to the bathroom a couple times, and i may have said something about it. At some point, she became the center of attention. She was being really loud, and different people seemed to be trying to "help" her...like...psychologically. I remember Jim Glynn and Tony Manzo specifically trying. I also remember Natalie Manzo being friends with 'Stasia there. At one point, 'Stasia seemed to be afraid of the color blue, but she called it something else. It was a word that Tony used while giving her advice that started with a P, and she decided it was going to be synonymous with the color blue. It wasn't a complicated word. It was something simple like "Plans." At the time, pretty much everyone around her was wearing blue, so she shouted the P-word at them and backed away. I believe we were in San Diego again, and there was a girl there who had just moved from Laguna Beach. It was a sore subject for her because people in her neighborhood accused her of being something bad. Somebody said something about being former mormons. They were blowing up a bounce house at some point, and i said, "ooh! a bounce house!" Someone was testing it while they were blowing it up, and he wasn't bouncing very high, so i said, "well, a HOUSE anyway..." We left before dinner was served because my dad wanted to go to some restaurant called the Beefcutter. I thought this was really weird because my dad always hated going to expensive restaurants like that. It was just me, my mom, and my dad. I was kindof excited because i figured if my dad was willing to goto a place like this, it must be REALLY good, and he seemed to say something like that place was usually the highlight of his day when he went there (and he only went there when he was already out having fun, so that was saying a lot). I was eating my food, and i took a sip of milk (which my mom had already said tasted weird), and it was chunky. The waitress came by shortly after that and asked if we wanted some COLD milk. "Perfect timing," i thought. I was looking forward to the new milk. As the waitress was walking away, my dad said something like, "I've had better milk than that that was CURDLED." Apparently, the waitress heard him because she shouted something back. This turned into a bit of a verbal war. I was embarrassed that my dad was doing this, and i also thought it was odd that the waitress was doing this. It seemed like very irregular behavior for a waitress. I wanted to leave her a really big tip for putting up with my dad, and it seemed like she was having a really bad day already. I didn't know how i would do it, though, because i wouldn't be able to let my dad see. There was some more confusion involving the milk, long story short, we never got it. We got the check, and my mom and i left while my dad took care of it (he was also going to try and get a free meal out of it for next time). As my mom and i were walking away, we passed a waitress, and i thought it was ours, so i wanted to give her the fifty dollar bill in my wallet, but i wasn't sure if it was her, so i didn't. As my mom and i got further away, i started to think that the restaurant people were going to kill my dad. Then, i started smiling because i realized he was already dead, and this was all a dream. That's about when i woke up.

On My Way Home

We (my mom and i) were leaving some place in San Diego, and i was waiting in the car. Some weird person showed up and did something to me, and i was really scared. Then, this Arab/muslim looking lady came and sat in the driver's seat of the car, and i said, "I'm a Jew now!" She responded to this by pulling out a knife (as her face kept flashing back and forth from being normal to really bloody) and started stabbing me in the crotch. I couldn't feel it, so i decided that she was giving me a hand job. Somehow, this turned into Sarah Silverman giving me a blow job. Eventually, it turned into me riding home with my mom. It was New Year's Eve, and we had a dog. There was this place we stopped every year that was apparently where the dog came from. I asked, "can't we come here on a different day some time?" because it was a cool place that i liked, but i was always really tired and didn't feel like doing anything when we got there. As we were leaving, some animal security looking person gave us crap because we didn't have a leash and then said something like, "At least i finished my four years of High School" or something (implying that neither of us had). My mom and i both made fun of her when we got back in the car and continued on our way. We were back in San Clemente, and we stopped somewhere because there was a problem. A bunch of our stuff had fallen out of the car or something. While my mom was trying to solve this problem (with glue, rather than tape, which we discussed, and i said something like "we were just talking about this tonight"), i found myself in a room full of annoying (pre)teen boys. One of them seemed like he wanted to fight me, and i asked him how much HE weighed after he had commented on my light weight. He hesitated and said, "Three...HUNDRED pounds." He was probably no more than 95 pounds, so i just played along and said something like, "Wow, you DO weigh more than me." He started to get more agressive and seemed to want to pull me outside, but once he got outside himself, i just gave him a nudge. I watched him flip over the hand railing on a small balcony that was right out the door, and then one hand caught the railing on the otherside, but didn't hold on. At this point, i was very anxious to leave because i was afraid i was going to be accused of murder. My mom was ready to leave, so we were packing up the stuff that had dropped, but there were complications. We ended up walking home, and my sister, Dawn, was with us. I noticed a few different groups of people gathering for what looked like war re-enactments. I decided that it was almost midnight, and they were preparing to make lots of noise. One of the groups was a bunch of mexican kids, and my sister said something like, "oh, this is where all the mexicans live...like my old house." We found ourself in a dark cave like place with a hole in the wall where Carrot Top came out. I thought to myself, "Oh yeah, Dawn lived here for a while when she first got kicked out of the house, and Carrot Top had a thing for her." Carrot Top was showing us some weird stuff, and my sister had a lizard that she was trying to show me. Finally, she got impatient, so she put it down my shirt. That woke me up.

Hot Air Balloowned

My parents and i were planning a camping trip to Arizona with some other weird people. I was leaving a day earlier for some reason, and i was worried that i might not be able to find them. I asked my mom to show me where we were going on the map, and she pointed to the far southeast corner of Arizona where the map said "Tulane." Apparently, everything worked out because the next thing i knew was we were all at the camping place. I was a little put off by how much stuff the other people had brought because i thought we were only supposed to be there for a day or two, and they looked prepared to be there for weeks. There were some people that we believed to be bad people coming down on us in a hot-air balloon surrounded by black smoke. We sent a bunch of birds up to attack them, but then 4 crows came to attack our birds. We watched as our birds fell out of the sky one after another. Once the smoke cleared, there was only one or two of our birds left, and i finally realized what they were doing. They had pecked away all of the sandbags in the balloon so that the balloon would just float away into oblivion. I guess we were in a balloon of our own, and there was a chick who was with us that was hanging off the side. The old guy with us thought that she should sacrifice herself and fall to her death, so i was worried that he was going to do something about it, but he didn't, so the other guy and i were able to pull her back aboard. Afterward, the guy asked me to get him a beer, but i didn't know where they were. I found a cooler filled with Orange slices.

Whoopi Goldberg Is A Scientist

I was part of a test group for NASA. They were either testing new equipment or a ship. There were two people that were supposed to test it before I was. It was a boy and a girl. While they were in the ship, something went wrong with the equipment and they ended up brutally attacking each other. One of them died. This made me very nervous about going in the ship. During take off, rather than be inside the ship, I was supposed to hold my breath and be transported into it once it was already moving. So the ship took off and one of the scientists, whoopi goldberg, told me to hold my breath. I did, and a couple seconds later I was sucked up into the ship. Once I was inside, they placed this big plastic things over my ears and gave me something to breathe through. I could see a compartment where one of the kids who died had been and it made me very nervous. Almost as soon as we had entered space, we began to descend again and the pressure inside the cabin was rapidly changing. The sceintists were complaining about their ears, and we had to keep equalizing them every few seconds.
Eventually we landed and got off the ship and went inside a huge room that was like a theater lobby. My dad was waiting to pick me up. I tried to take off the breathing device but I almost passed out immediately, and whoopi told me I would have to keep breathing through it for a while. Then my dad and I were running around trying to find a line to get in. They were all very long, but we got lucky and got to one no one was at yet because they had just opened it. Some guy was trying to cut in front of me and I was making sure he didn't. There were also words in little digital boxes over the door but I couldn't read them.
I had helped someone's wife hang little ornaments from the cieling that represented her sex life. Each ornament was a time she had had sex. At one point the line split off into two lines, and one line represented the women she had sex with, while the other line represented the men. There was a little clump of ornaments at one point on the women line, and apparently that clump had something to do with her and I. Her husband came home and started flipping out when he found out about all the women she'ld been sleeping with during their marriage. We both thought this was kind of funny, but then my husband, ben stiller, arrived and saw the line, and started freaking out that I had been sleeping with this other woman. He came over to me and started asking me if this was true, but I honestly couldn't remember so I didn't know what to say to him. I thought it was but I wasn't entirely sure, so I just sat quietly while he yelled at me.

I Have To Poop.

Some of the guys from church were going bowling after church, but i didn't go because i didn't have my shoes. Later that day, i was going to go back to church, but i got held up because i wanted to take a shower, and there was a bee flying around in the bathroom. I wanted to kill it, so i started swinging a towel at it. It stung me in the forehead before i eventually chased it out of the bathroom and killed it. Since i was running late, i was driving very fast and weaving in and out of traffic. I got to one point in the road where two people were talking out the window to each other and blocking the entire road, so i honked at them several times (I've never honked at anyone ever), and passed in the oncoming lane once that guy passed. For some reason, when i got close to church, i pulled over and started riding a bike (I haven't ridden a bike in...10 years?). I fell down a couple times when i went off the lip of the road and almost slid down a giant hill. When I Got to church, there were a bunch of people there, and they were getting ready for worship. I stood up, and they started playing that song that goes "You are beautiful, but you don't mean a thing to me" by Death Cab For Cutie (I was listening to them in my sleep again). This was kinda weird because, unlike the other times their music has shown up in my dreams, this was the people in the dream singing the song, not the band. I think people were going bowling again, but since i was rushed to get there, i didn't have my shoes again, so i didn't go. Somehow, i wound up at an Angel game with Kyle. We were in the highest upperest deck closest to the sun, but, luckily, the sun was blocked by a dark cloud of smoking covering the entire stadium. There was actually a big story behind this, like it was the end of the world or something, but i don't remember what it was. All i remember is seeing a giant spout of water shooting out from the stadium (the water spout was the size of the whole stadium) that washed away the smoke cloud. I was pissed because i didn't wanna sit in the sun all day, so i told Kyle i was gonna hang out under the bleachers. However, when i tried this, it was really sticky, and i didn't really fit underneath anyway, so i decided to come up with a different plan. I told Kyle I was gonna try to see if i could get on the field, so i left and started walking down stairs and stuff. As i was climbing down, this turned into something completely different. I passed through a room where a bunch of people from my family were watching a movie. I tried to find my way back the way i came, and i came across John Locke (Lost) and what was a apparently his son on a couch. I felt that they were hurting for some reason, and i really cared for them, so i went and put my arms around them. I believe it was around this time that I turned into Dave (from Lost). Not only that, but i was now naked for some reason. John put his arm around me, and then he started inching it lower and lower...long story short: he tried to rape me.

Boooowliiiiing

I was at Justin's house but it didn't look like his house. The only explainable difference is that the living room in the dream was much larger, but there were a lot of other small changes. Brian and some other people were there too. We were waiting to recieve a phone call so that we could go bowling. There was something about a dinosaur, and maybe even the end of the world... but I can't remember anything else.

I think this was all because we had a party in my apartment last night and I put MFB in the stereo.

Base Ball, Jay, Base Ball.

It was the end of the baseball season, and the Dodgers finished a half-game ahead of both the Padres and the Giants in the NL West. For some reason, Jay Leno was conducting some sort of trivia contest between the fans of each of those teams to decide who would get to go to the playoffs. I thought this was ludicrous, and i was really pissed off about it. I don't even like the Dodgers, but i was thinking, "The Dodgers BETTER win because that's a really retarded way to decide things." Somehow, this turned into me and some other people going on some sort of water ride with innertubes. It was really cool because it actually went upside-down and stuff. It was also really fast. I got separated from my group, and i thought i was gonna get in trouble because we were supposed to stay together. I saw the guy in charge of the ride when i got to the end, but it was someone i knew, so i was no longer worried that i would be in trouble.
That's about all i remember.

I Don't Know How I Forgot This

I had a semi-lucid dream. I knew i was dreaming, but i was having trouble when i tried to control it. Basically, i was trying to do what Justin has always talked about doing which is imagine the most beautiful girl possible, but i've never been able to do that. Using that much mental energy usually wakes me up. As i was trying to do this, i noticed a wormhole opening in the middle of the room. I thought that this was me waking up and that the room that i could see through the hole was my room as i was opening my eyes. As the hole got bigger, i realized this was not the case. It was a completely different room both from the one i was in and my real room. When i realized i wasn't actually waking up (and i found myself in the new room), i decided to continue my imaginary quest. I had no luck, and i eventually woke up. Actually, i think THAT'S when i "woke up to go to the bathroom" or whatever in the other dream.

I Remembered Another Dream

We finally got Tiffany to come over to Justin's, but she was asleep on the couch the whole time.

Guys That Won't Listen

My hair had been growing out really fast over the last few days and it was now about shoulder length. I went to a salon and this guy was cutting my hair. He wanted to bleach parts of it to give it highlights. I said I really didn't want him to do that, but he insisted it would look good, and started doing it anyway. I told him again not to, but he was holding on to my hair so I couldn't move. I eventually struggled free and left the salon.
Calia and I were riding our bikes somewhere to get dinner. We went into a tea shop and got in line. As I was deciding what kind of boba I wanted, a huge guy in a maroon t-shirt walked up behind me and started masaging my shoulders. I thought that was kind of gross, and tried to passively object to what he was doing by acting uncomfortable and fidgeting. However the guy persisted and he was creeping me out more and more. Eventually I started yelling at him but he didn't seem to care. I then started complaining to the management, who were a bunch of teenage girls, but they were too scared to do anything. The guy got personally offended and eventually stopped. I was mad that those girls hadn't called the cops or something.

I can't remember my other dreams!

We're Being Bombed

I was camping with Dale. It was early in the morning, and i had gotten up to goto the bathroom or something. When i realized how early it was, i turned around to go back to bed. As soon as i turned around, i saw what appeared to be a mushroom cloud off in the distance. Suddenly, there was a giant green flash in the sky to my right.
That's when i started to run. As i was running, I saw two more mushroom clouds forming in the distance, and i noticed that some of the dry plants around the camp were on fire. I started to yell, "FIRE! FIRE!" trying to wake everyone up. I could FEEL that i was yelling, but i couldn't really hear myself. When i got back to our campsite, dale was already in the car with some random mexican guy, and they started driving away without me. I chased them all the way until they got to the main road and continued to drive away. The last thing i "yelled" before i woke up was, "You fucking piece of shit!"

Elimidate...bum bum bum BUM bum bum bum

I was stuck in a time warp where i was forced to watch Elimidate over, and over, and over again.

Tomorrow

I was hanging out with Zack and a random friend of his (possibly jeremy?). We were playing video games, and at one point, Fantasy Basketball was mentioned. I asked Zack if he would be interested in being commissioner of our league this year since i'm no longer on AIM. He said no because he was probably going to be commishing a money league, so he didn't want to do two. Zack also mentioned that he thought the leagues were going to open "tonight," so that got me very excited. Somebody randomly chose a racing game for us to play, so i was mad because i hate racing games not called Mario Kart. After i lost, i ran to the bathroom, i believe. When i came out, i met Zack's friend who had also gone to the bathroom, and he told me that he thought zack was currently in the bathroom (I believe this was 3 separate bathrooms). We then heard a violent sound coming from the bathroom that zack was presumably in, and we both laughed as i watched birds start flying around.

Pinch And Roll

I believe i was in Santa Monica with my mom. I was trying to tell her that i thought i had some sort of STD. Finally, i told her that last time i went to the doctor, they told me i had "crabs" or something. When i told her this, she told me that crabs were a sign of healing or something. Then, she turned the conversation around and tried to ask me who i could talk to about stuff like this. I didn't understand why she was doing this because i was just talking to HER about it. She started mentioning random people and spewing out reasons why i COULDN'T talk to them. Then, she made it her mission to not only find me someone to talk to about stuff like that, but EVERY SINGLE PERSON in church. I felt like this was something our pastor had mentioned would be a good thing, and, as usual, nobody did anything about it. My mom was taking it upon herself to make it happen. I got mad at her when she tried to pair me up with someone who was married. I yelled, "THEY'RE MARRIED! They already HAVE that person to talk to! That's the way it's supposed to work!" She didn't listen, and she continued adding more and more married people to her list that she was compiling. I felt that this was ludicrous, so i told her i was leaving. As i was leaving, she called out, "but it's 5:00" (which meant there would be ridiculous traffic on the way home, so there was no point in me leaving). "I KNOW!!!" I yelled back to express how serious i was about leaving. However, as i said it, i was thinking i should probably find something else to do before i actually leave. Sure enough, on my way to my car, i saw Maya (crazy girl from High School who i haven't seen in...years) who, in turn, had just seen someone else she apparently hadn't seen in a long time. They were running towards each other to hug, and i ran in after for a group hug (Ah, how i LOVE the group hug...ask me to explain later if you wish). We started talking, and i think that random girl (who i thought i knew, but turned out i didn't) turned into Michael Dunwoody (random guy from High School). Maya told us she was moving to Spain to get married. She told us the whole story, and then she started screaming and crying and stuff. I forget why she did this, but i felt uncomfortable because we were on a jungle gym with other people around, so i started to try and distance myself from her. Speaking of the jungle gym, when Maya first started crying, she was swinging on a horizontal bar and did an amazing flip really high in the air, and i wondered where she learned how to do that.

I was playing Pokémon Puzzle League, but it seemed more...real than normal. I believe the game was interrupted by a commercial for a movie called "Tiertaurus" (Somewhat like Truckasaurus) that had the fat guy from "Lost" in it. At one point, he got snatched away by a monster or something, and i got the impression that this happened in real life, so i was worried that this might affect the new Season of Lost coming up.

Mystery Ballet

I was at a Yo-Yo contest, and i was actually competing! (this was odd because i haven't competed in 6 years) I was the first person up, and when i got on stage i realized i didn't have any music! I frantically ran out into the audience and started asking people if they had a CD i could use. I ended up with a Nada Surf CD and what appeared to be a No Use For a Name CD. I used the No Use CD because the person i got it from specifically told me to use #4. I was ready to start, and after having a short dialogue with the DJ during which i frantically told him two different things "make me nervous," i was apparently ready to go. However, my hands were sweaty now (not good for yo-yoing) from being "nervous," so i pointed out to the DJ that if i sucked it's because HE made me nervous "There, i said it!" He looked a little worried at first, but then i think he realized i was joking, so he was ok. He went to start up the music, and i realized i had a tangle in my string, so i had to frantically try to get that out before the music started. I just about got it, and the music started, so i started going. It took me a little while to realize that i was yo-yoing to the Macarena! When i realized this, i started laughing, thinking to myself, "boy, he got me good." I was making a lot of mistakes, but that didn't bother me as much as when i realized that i HAD my freestyle CD WITH me, so i should've been using my OWN music. However, i was less bothered by this when i remembered that the CD didn't have any MFB songs (which i decided i would use if i ever competed again) on it. While i was on stage, some lady that i apparently knew (and didn't particularly like) walked through the stage and made me feel like i was in HER way. I accepted that when i realized i was in a far corner of the stage, so i tried to make my way more toward the center. Apparently, the lady had two daughters who were in a band together (one of whom played guitar), and they were playing on another stage off to the side of where i was. The lady seemed mad and said something like, "My daughter's been playing guitar for you guys for 4 years, and you never give her a big part, so i demand you let her do a solo! Go ahead, Libby, do your solo." When it occurred to me that there were teenage girls on another stage playing music, i suddenly cared very little about what i was doing and paid much more attention to them.

Sleepover!

I was having a sleepover party at my house for anyone who was going to the National Yo-Yo Contest like it was right down the street from my house or something. This makes no sense because the National Yo-Yo Contest is in Chico which is about 10 hours from my house. There was one person already there. We were yo-yoing, and i told him how to burn an axle. Other guests started to arrive, and the house started filling up. Then, Cathy Girard came to the door. Apparently, my mom was having a sleepover at our house for the women from my church at the same time! I thought this might turn into a problem as we run out of space. I also decided that we were not prepared refreshments-wise. I was really thirsty, so i was going to grab a squirt and then run upstairs so nobody could see me drinking it.

Lizard-Sitter

I was babysitting two big lizards for a woman. The woman said she usually let them sleep in her bed, and I decided I would do the same. However, after a couple minutes of a lizard crawling around in the sleeping bag I was staying in, I changed my mind.
Me and another person had killed someone. We drove out to this really remote area and pulled the victim out of our trunk. He looked like a young black business man. We took him into a building to find a place to hide him. Cops/detectives showed up looking for us, but they weren't in uniform and they looked more like painters or plumbers. They individually questioned my accomplice and I, and I felt very willing to give them whatever information they wanted.
I was playing a game with my NZ group. We were at a huge park by the beach, and the object was to get the ball from the starting point to the finish. The rules were that you could only run on the paths as opposed to just anywhere, and you could pick up the ball and throw it but you couldn't carry it with you. It was individual, everyone versus everyone, so basically it was just a bunch of people sprinting for the ball and then throwing it. The finish was at the beach, and you had to give the ball to a random person on the beach to win. I was winning the game, and when I got to the beach I gave the ball to a girl who was with her dad.

Last Night in New Zealand... Again

Sandra = someone from high school
Gum boots = work boots I wore in NZ
Rick = project leader/guide in NZ

I was staying at a hostel. Theo was in my room and we had just gotten all our belongings settled. A random woman showed up because we apparently had to share the room with her. I moved some of my stuff out of the way so it wouldn't get confused with hers. At first, she made me kind of nervous but I eventually decided I really didn't mind sharing.
I was in the forest with my Aunt Pilar. A group of bikers went by us, and they were very noisily talking about levels and ratings for mountain biking. One of the bikers was Sandra, and she was saying something about how they were going to cut off her hair because it kept getting stuck in trees as she biked past them. I didn't know how mountain biking ratings worked, so after they had passed us, I went over to the tracks they were riding on to see if I could figure out the system. I walked up to one of them and realized it was a huge cliff, but you couldn't see that until you were right at the edge of it. I then decided that bikers must be completely insane to do stuff like that.
My aunt and I walked up to a house in the woods and went inside for a little while to talk. A dragon fly followed us in there. It was a really dark purple color and had yellow spots. It started following me around the room and it was kind of freaking me out so I tried to move it outside. I tried for a while and it didn't work, so I decided to kill it. I felt really bad about doing it, but my aunt assured me it was okay, so I smashed it. It curled up into a little ball and died... which made me feel horrible.
My aunt and I were now walking back to my apartment at Santa Cruz. The forest started to clear and opened up to the meadow. It was sunny out and both of us were saying how beautiful it was. We didn't have shoes on, and as we were walking through the meadow we noticed there were a lot of bugs. I was trying to avoid stepping on them, and was getting really freaked out by how many there were. Eventually we got to a place where the ground was covered in dead bugs, but it turned into grass that had a strange pattern on it, as if it were tile or marble. I thought this was really cool looking, so I layed down on my stomach and was moving the grass around with my hands. When I did this it would make more patterns but once I let go it would return to it's original state. Eventually I got back up and we kept walking, other people were now walking with us. When we got to the edge of the meadow it had started to rain. My aunt and I now had gum boots on our feet, as did everyone else who was walking out of the meadow. Everyone was taking off their gum boots and handing them to a guy who was collecting them and hosing them off. My aunt and I handed ours in, then left.
I was in a hostel with people from my NZ group. It was our last night before we went home, and everyone was congregating in a living room and a bottle of whisky was being passed around. I remember drinking some, but being worried about getting too drunk. Later on in the evening we found out that not everyone could fit on the bus to get a ride to the airport. I was upset about this and when I asked Rick about it, he said it was true. This really stressed me out, and I decided I was going to find a way to get on the bus.

Lots and Lots of Lost Dreams

I don't really remember any of them, but we finished season 2 last night, so i should be getting back to my 12-year-old dreams soon enough.

Most Intense Game Ever

Elliott = friend from high school
Kiwi = New Zealander

I was at a beach in New Zealand. The water and waves were perfect so I went swimming. I received a call from a guy I had met earlier and even though I didn't have a phone with me I could see the message because the words from it appeared in the sky as he spoke them. He asked me if I was able to join him and his friends for five weeks in South America. He said that because I am a vegetarian, my poo makes excellent fertilizer and they could use it for the planting project they will be working on. I had no interest in going to South America with him, so I ignored his call. I got out of the ocean and was going back to the hotel room I was staying in because I was going to meet my family to go see a movie with them.
I went into a spa to shower and get dressed. There were attendants everywhere but when I asked one of them for a towel she wasn't very willing to give me one. She started talking to me about my American accent, and said it was sad that I didn't have a Kiwi accent like herself. I told her I could if I wanted to.
I was doing an activity with my New Zealand group. It involved teams of two or three, and we were all suspended in gondola-like things hundreds of feet above the ground. The game was like virtual reality, because you could potentially "die" but it wasn't real if you did, and the object was to eliminate all the other players. We wore skydiving gear, which consisted of harnesses, gloves, caps, goggles, and a jumpsuit. We were also each attached by a bungi chord. I wanted to be in the same gondola as Elliott and some guy named Mike. Elliott and mike got in a gondola together, and when I tried to get in the last seat, the guy running the thing said I couldn't. I pointed out that there was a third seat, which he was apparently unaware of because he apologized, and let me take my seat. The bungi chords they gave me kept coming out of my harness, and were otherwise working improperly, but the attendants didn't seem to care. When I sat down in my seat I asked Elliott to retie the bungi to my harness. Once I was settled, the attendants pushed a button, and we shot out to the open air, suspended over the city. The whole line stopped momentarily, and the three of us sat facing a girl in another single gondola. She was petrified of being so high up, so she unstrapped herself from the harness and threw herself toward the ground. I watched her fall and when her body made contact with the pavement she just disappeared. We figured she was just so afraid she didn't even want to try to play, but I thought she was stupid because purposely "commiting suicide" would be a lot scarier than just playing. However I felt reassured knowing that if I chose to do the same, I wouldn't actually die.
Now we were in the middle of the game. I was no longer sitting in the gondola, and was just using my bungi to jump around. We were inside a carnival in the city, and some guys from another team were playing a carnival game that involved fake guns, but they were using them to shoot me. I jumped around avoiding some of the bullets, which were like little pieces of dandelion fur, and was taunting the guys because they couldn't shoot me. Then one of them shot me. They all celebrated because they had killed me, but because I hadn't actually died I didn't think I was out. Some of them started to chase me, and I scaled up the inside of a big stone overhang. Ryan had been one of the guys trying to shoot me, and he was on top of the overhang. He didn't know I was there, so I was going to wait till he started to leave, then catch him by surprise and push him off. However, I couldn't wait any longer so I jumped out too early and he captured me. He ran over to one of the people running the game and asked if I was out. The attendant said I was, so I conceeded.

I Like Long Walks On The Beach

I was walking along the beach, and it was actually a lot cooler than normal. There were places in between beaches that had these rock caves and such. I guess it was like Laguna Beach, but in my dream, i was in San Clemente. I don't think i was alone. I think i was walking with either Peter or John Glynn (from church). At one point, Mike Fanning (one of the pastors from church) came up to us with a surfboard in his hand. He told us he was going to teach us how to surf. Peter or John, whoever it was, went first, but he was trying to surf in one of the rock caves with really tiny waves that only lasted a couple seconds. I had no interest in this, so i was hoping to walk out to a real beach with real waves before trying. This never happened.

I took a walk out to the beach, and i heard someone talking about "Jack" and "Sawyer" and some other characters on the show "Lost." Suddenly, i felt like i was IN the show, and i was part of that group. Therefore, since i didn't recognize this guy, and he was talking about "us," i felt that he was an enemy. He started walking out to the water alone, so i ran after him. I grabbed him and yelled, "WHO ARE YOU? WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT JACK? WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT SAWYER??" He wasn't cooperating, so i was going to try and drag him back to camp, but one of his friends stopped me on the beach. I had a plan that i would use the guy's hand to punch his friend in the face, but when i tried to do it, it was really slow and awkward, and it didn't come anywhere near him. The guy then kneed me in the gut and walked away. I believe i fell to the ground, but i was still holding the guy, and someone else came and kicked me in the face.

Watching Magnolia = Great Dreams

Night of: September 9
People Involved: my dad, Kyle, miscellaneous women
Number of Dreams Remembered: 2
Length of Sleep: 12 hours

I was making out with some girl in the kitchen of my old house in Laguna. The next thing I know, I was grabbing her boobs and all of our clothes were off. We had sex standing up, and then she decided to turn around for doggy-style.
I saw my dad walk towards the kitchen, so she put her underwear on, and I didn't have time, so I sat there naked, but turned around. I quickly left the kitchen to put my clothes back on.

In Retrospect: Yeehaw! ... but I apologize for the details. Orrr DO I?
-----
I was throwing darts in Kyle's room with some girl and Kyle. I hadn't done it in a long time, and on the first throw, I hit the bullseye. I was stoked. I then threw another and hit the bullseye again. This got the attention of the girl and Kyle, so I said something like, "Watch, now I'm going to miss," and when they watched me throw the third time, I missed completely. However, I did better on the next couple of shots, and the girl was impressed with my form.

In Retrospect: I haven't thrown darts in Kyle's room in a long time. What the crap is with the movie, Magnolia? I'm either retarded, or that movie makes no sense. Frogs falling from the sky is interesting, but seriously... what's the deal with that movie?

Creepy Christians

I was in a store in New Zealand with Nicole and we were trying on really expensive clothes. I put on a gigantic pink fur coat, and she put on a blue one. I thought to myself "wow, this would look a lot better on me if I still had hair". Then my hair suddenly appeared back on my head.
I was in my hostel room and there were some Christian people in there who were doing something to our hair in order to represent that our sins had been forgiven. There were big ribbons attached to the ceiling, which the people braided into our hair. Everyone else waited very patiently and quietly while this was being done, however I decided that I would display my disintrest in religion as a whole by dancing around and being otherwise rude during the whole process. The woman who was braiding my hair got back at me for my rudeness by taking very very long to finish. So eventually everyone else was done, but I still had to stand there and wait for the woman to let go of my hair.
Everyone in my project group was trying to get to the airplane to go home, but as we were walking through downtown we kept getting distracted by everything. There was a rock wall on the sidewalk and I wanted to try to climb it. The rope I had to use was very flimsy, and I didn't trust that it could hold my weight. Caleb was there and he told me I shouldn't worry because he used it earlier. So I believed him and climbed up the wall very fast. Everyone praised me for being such a good climber.
There were a bunch of little things I had accumulated and now had to carry around with me, all of them were small enough to fit in my contacts case so thats were I kept them. However everything had gotten really dirty and I wanted to clean it. To do so, I put all the objects in my mouth, then poured contact solution in along with them, and swished everything around. It tasted terrible, and it took a lot to keep me from vomiting. But I didn't and then everything was clean.

I'd Like To Stuff a Cock in HER...

I was back at San Clemente High School, but i had graduated from college. I was taking classes at the High School for some reason. I was walking to a class that i had not been to yet when i saw Stephanie Katke (one of the hottest girls from my high school). She spotted me through the crowd and waved to me, so i went over and gave her a big hug. We were talking for a little bit, and i got the impression that she was just visiting while i was actually taking classes there. While we were talking, i was worried that i was going to be late to class, especially since i had not been to this particular class before. After a little bit, she continued on her way, so i continued on mine. I found what i thought to be the class i was supposed to be in, but there were no students. There was just a man typing on a computer while his father appeared to be doing some sort of scientific experiments. They were bickering and fighting for a long time before they realized i was there. Once they DID realize that, they attempted to be civil and put on a happy face.

Self-Titled

I was at a cabin in the mountains playing poker with the guys from church.

Das Kinky, Yah?

I had gotten more ear piercings but I didn't like the way they looked. I tried to change the earrings and was afraid I wouldn't be able to put the new earrings in. But I put them in without a problem and liked those ones much better.
I was involved in some sort of dance competition with people from all over Europe. My routine involved a lot of black leather and a german guy.
I was in a parking lot at an airport and trying to find a car to drive. I was with some family members, and we resorted to stealing one of the cars.

Mmm...12 Year Olds

I was walking with three 12 year old girls. Two of them were friends, and the other one was not one of them. It seemed to me like the "other" one was a "cool" girl and the 2 THOUGHT they were "cooler" than her. This brought about the subject of sex in conversation. I don't remember what the "cool" girl said, but one of the two said that she has sex 2 or 3 times an HOUR. This disgusted me, but i wondered if she was lying just to look "cool." I was tempted to "whip it out" and say "prove it," but i didn't.

I was spending the night at the beach with my sister and her family. There was some sort of Youth Group that was near us, so i went over to hang out with them. Some of the girls were hot (probably aroun 15 years old). They were playing with my hair at some point, and i wondered if they liked me. There was a rock formation in the water near their camp that most of the kids were sliding around on and stuff. It looked like loads of fun. When we left and got back to my sister's house, i noticed i had lost a CD in her car. I was mad because i had recently lost the SAME CD in her car and had to re-burn it once already.

Chapter 1: Meet Style

Night of: September 6
People Involved: Kyle, Neil Strauss (author), Lisa Leveridge (his trophy girlfriend), my mom
Number of Dreams Remembered: 1
Length of Sleep: 7 hours

I was on some sort of vacation and Neil was driving the bus. He was on the phone while driving, and I told Kyle that it must be his girlfriend on the line.
This somehow turned into Neil at my house in Laguna. He was talking to me about stuff he's written, and I kept asking questions, some of which were kinda lame. Kyle pretty much just listened. I worried that my mom would come home and see this weirdo, and I'd have to explain who Neil was.

In Retrospect: Couldn't make more sense. It's all Kyle's fault.

...Lost

I had a dream about the show "Lost."

We started Season 2 on tuesday.

Scaling Hostels and Fancy Dinner Parties

I was back in New Zealand. I had been walking with Ryan along a cliffside trying to get back into my hostel. Somehow, the bridge we were on disappeared and we were now scaling the side of the building itself. The building was hundreds of feet in the air over a gorge, so I was scared for my life. I was following behind Ryan, who got inside the building through a small window. When I got to the window I looked inside and saw that it led to a sauna and Ariel, Brooke and Nicole were inside. I was trying to figure out the best way to jump inside because it was such a long drop, and I eventually agreed to let Ariel kind of hold my weight and bring me down to the ground. Once I was inside I slid into a corner and clung to the ground, enjoying the feeling of being so secure. I then realized that the room was completely inclosed and only had one small door. This really scared me because I was afraid of being trapped in there, so I checked the door to make sure it worked. The door worked and I left the room.
Later that night, our NZ group was supposed to go out to dinner. Apparently it was a very nice dinner, because everyone was dressed up in elaborate evening gowns and suits. I was walking with two girls from my group and I got in the line before them. They then asked if they could cut with me. I knew the people behind me saw the whole thing happen, and I let them cut even though I felt like a jerk for doing it.

Backwards Moving Violation

Night of: September 5
People Involved: Kyle, my mom, my dad, my sister, Ryan Wheeler (junior high/high school friend), Willy Brummund (junior high/high school friend), Hailey Hart (Kyle's little sister)
Number of Dreams Remembered: 3
Length of Sleep: 9 hours

I drove to work with Kyle, and wanted to park near the front, so I passed by some empty spaces in the back. When I actually started looking for a spot, there were none in the front, but I had just passed one, so I backed up, and backed into a parking spot. I backed in slowly because there were two police officers standing right next to it... that, and the van next to me was on the line, which made it even more difficult to park.
The cops came up to me and asked for my license. He asked me why I backed in, and told me that I wasn't looking when I was doing it. I explained that this was the first time in my 2-3 months working that I've backed in. I was really worried that it was going to be a moving violation as opposed to a parking ticket.
This somehow led to one of the police officers talking to me about music. He played guitar, too. We talked about some stuff, and he said it was time to go. He didn't write me a ticket, but said he could always write me one later. I thanked him "for everything" and said "I wish I had a dad like you." He was shocked and said, "I could really use a son like you."
I walked into work 4 hours late, but instead of being at work, I was in my old house in Laguna. My mom asked me why I was late to work, and I explained what had happened. My dad and sister were also there.
-----
I was hanging out with Ryan and Willy, and we started racing. I was totally out of breath because I was singing System of a Down songs as I was running.

I kept bugging Kyle about his little sister, Hailey.

In Retrospect: I was doing this earlier.

Apparently, I'm Into That Too

There was a girl at a party that had really hairy legs. I thought that was hot for some reason, so i started "doing stuff" with her...

This has something to do with something that happened at the wedding i went to last saturday. Ask me later if you'd like me to explain.

Joseph ADdell

A strange man was staying at my house for some reason. Somehow, i knew he was a "dangerous" person, and he knew that i knew this. He seemed to be on the lam. I believe he was a pedophile of some sort. I was talking to him, and he said part of what made him so dangerous was that he didn't have an identity in the U.S. Later, he said his name was Joseph ADdell (not a typo, that's how he spelled it). I began to wonder if he would try to do something if i fell asleep while he was in the house. This worried me, and i didn't know what i was going to do.

Hooray For Toothpaste

I received a brand new tube of toothpaste.

FINALLY Lucid!

Someone was talking about astronaut tests, and that turned into me doing some similar, yet completely different tests. I remember having to swing on a rope over a giant canyon or something, and then i landed on a large flat grassy area. Paul and Brad Marquis were there, and i started running around doing spins and stuff. I thought my spins were kinda cool, so i decided to try to do some of the tricks that the guys from Team Chinese Box do. There's one in particular that's like a kick into a skewed backflip that i was trying to do. I didn't feel like i was doing it right at all, but Brad seemed to be impressed.

I was at a HUGE party with basically everyone from my church there. The funny thing was, most of them were drinking, and some of them were noticeably drunk. I remember one in particular when he was talking to somebody, Bruce Wegner said, "wait, what church are you?" Paul Marquis responded, "Dude, Heritage." Bruce got very excited and shouted "Woah! me too!" At one point, i started running around, and i noticed something odd as i was doing it. I noticed that my feet were not touching the ground. As i was "running," i was approaching a fence, so i decided it was time to start flying. As i did, i threw up my hands in victory thinking, "FINALLY, i'll have a lucid dream to record!" As i was flying, it started to rain, so i thought, "ok, this is pretty much the greatest thing ever." There was a guy and a girl running up the street, and the girl looked really hot. She was wearing a red dress, and she had long black hair. As i caught up to them, i swooped down and picked her up. She was confused for a moment, but then she looked around, and she said, "OK, this is better." I decided to start making out with her, but she seemed to be resisting a bit. This flashed into her naked with a bunch of other girls on top of a small building (like a doghouse) at the beach. This is when i heard her yell, "NO! It's just like every other page from my life!" Or something to that effect. She followed by saying something like, "I need to marry a good Christian boy...but first i'll have sex with another hot guy." Then (she was alone on the beach now), she did some sort of flip and turned into a big pink cartoon turtle as some cheesy theme music started to play. The turtle flew up into some words that said something like "Dr. Do and the Turtle" There were some other words after that, but they went by too fast, and i couldn't read them. Everything pretty much faded out, and i woke up.


I'm sure i dreamed about the big party because i was at a Labor Day beach party with my church yesterday. The only weird thing is, i pretty much spent the whole day there with the High Schoolers, but there were no high schoolers at this party. I remembered the first dream as i was typing the word "flip" in the second dream.

Family, Death, and Work *sigh*

Night of: August 2
People Involved: Nisha Sehgal (family friend since I was born), Akash Sehgal (same), my brother (the son of my parents), my sister (daughter of my parents), my family (the people who raised me, gave birth to me, gave me shelter, etc.), Kyle (friend for 12 years), Mike Howitt (senior analyst that backed into my car at work)
Number of Dreams Remembered: 3
Length of Sleep: 13 hours

I was on a family vacation and my brother was irritating me. I finally exploded and started cursing. I remember my family looking at me when I was saying "shit." I told my brother, "You always act like you're sorry about how you treated me as a kid, but you're still like that!" That made him really quiet, like he was deeply hurt.

In Retrospect: Most of the wedding reception last night was hanging out with my brother by myself. He didn't treat me badly last night, but I think it was pretty bad when I was younger.
-----
My sister was asking me if I was free on certain day. She then said solemnly, "Will you go to Nisha's funeral?" I was shocked. I almost cried. I asked how she died, and my sister said, "She ate something and her intestines collapsed." I couldn't believe how quickly that could happen, and I said, "Of course I'll go."
The dream moved to a get-together with family friends. It wasn't the funeral, but the same people who would be there were at this event. I saw Nisha's brother, Akash. I didn't know if I should tell him I knew what happened, since it had just happened the day before. We pretended like nothing happened. He acted like he was okay, but I could tell that he was devastated.

In Retrospect: Nisha and Akash weren't at the reception last night, but I don't think they were invited, either... although there were over 1,000 people there. Indian receptions are freaking nuts. Remind me to get married in front of no more than 10 people.
-----
Kyle got a job with me, but he hadn't started yet. When I got to work, our desks had moved, and I was now sitting near the back of the office; that kinda sucked because I'd be sitting far away from Kyle. I looked back and saw that he'd be sitting like 100 feet away, so I wouldn't be able to say anything to him during work.
I told Mike about the estimates I got for my car, but I forgot to bring the papers so he could see it.

In Retrospect: I got estimates for my car the other day. Also, Kyle got the job.

Hostel Crawl Spaces

Pedro = crazy brazilian from NZ group

I was at a hostel with some people from my NZ group. I kept going in and out of someone's bedroom. In order to get inside, I had to jump from the hallway into a crawl space in the cieling, and pull myself up into what was like a little box. Then above that, there was a tiny square with a sliding cover, and i also had to squeeze through that, then I would be inside their room. I really hated doing this because I didn't like being in such a small space where I could potentially get stuck, and that was made even worse by the fact that there were always two or three of us going in at one time, so it would be even more crowded in there. One of the times I went into the room, there was no one else in there but Pedro and I, so we were "doing stuff" on someone else's bed. When one of the people staying in that room came back in and saw us, they freaked out and told us to move to another bed. So we did, but Pedro decided he would rather just go to sleep, so I left.

Hacky Sack Break

Night of: August 30
People Involved: Victor (co-worker)
Number of Dreams Remembered: 1
Length of Sleep: 7 hours

I was hacky sacking with Victor and a bunch of other guys from work.

In Retrospect: I found out that a few guys hacky sack during breaks at work. I emailed them saying that I want in. The weird thing is that I didn't know Victor was part of it when I had the dream, yet the next day, when I joined them, he was there. The dream came true. Except this time, in real life, I was dressed like a hippie.

Family Dilemma, Health Issues, and Shitty Homeland Security

Night of: August 31
People Involved: Kyle, my sister, my niece, Tracy Steel (ex), my mom
Number of Dreams Remembered: 4
Lengh of Sleep: 10 hours

I told my sister that she and her daughter could come to dinner with me and Kyle, and that I could drive them there. But then I realized that I'd rather be doing other things and not have the family there, so when they were getting in my car, I thought that I should pretend like Kyle called. When I was thinking that, Kyle actually did call. When I got off the phone, I told my sister that Kyle wanted to go bowling after dinner, and it would get really late, so I wouldn't be able to drive them back home--so they should either take their own car, or not come to dinner at all. My sister said that they'd pass on the whole night... so I met up with Kyle and a bunch of other people.
The dream zoomed forward to the next day, and I asked Kyle what happened that night because I couldn't remember anything--I must've been drinking. I wondered if I did anything embarrassing, or if something happened with a girl, or what. Kyle said he couldn't remember, either.

In Retrospect: This dream is definitely because of my life-long dilemma of hanging out with family vs. hanging out with friends.
-----
Tracy was over and in my bed. She got on top of me. "Something" was about to happen when my mom started yelling from downstairs "Do you want skirts? Down jackets?" I quickly got up, hoping my mom wouldn't come upstairs and see me and Tracy together. I scooched Tracy over and sat at the foot of the bed. I yelled back to my mom, "No." Tracy asked why I didn't want any clothes, and I said that sometimes I say yes, and sometimes I say no, depending on how I'm feeling.

In Retrospect: This relates to the theme of the first dream--it has to do with me not being open with the family.
-----
I was going to school and tried to find a good parking spot. This turned into me finding a place to leave my bicycle. I went to class and sat next to a guy who had a cough. I hate sitting next to sick people, and I always feel like I'm going to catch whatever they have, so that made me irritated.
I actually coughed twice, perfectly in sync with the guy next to me. I was catching his cough.
He asked me to trade pencils with him for some reason. Mine was mechanical and his was regular. I agreed to switch because I knew that if we traded, he'd sit somewhere else. Sure enough, he walked away.

In Retrospect: My throat hurt when I was going to bed and when I woke up. No surprise there.
-----
I was hanging out with some people, one of which I found attractive. Just then, Anaheim started getting bombed. I wondered if we'd all die. I told the attractive girl to get home safe.

In Retrospect: This was because Kyle and I saw a guy on Leno that had videos of being in Iraq. Also, when I woke up that morning, I was in my room, and the loudest explosion I've ever heard (that close to me, at least), came from right outside my window. A flash of electric light beamed through my blinds and the boom pushed me back a couple of feet. I thought we were being bombed and I was going to die. My alarm clock started blinking 12:00 and a car alarm went off from the explosion. I looked outside and had no idea what happened. Kyle woke up freaked out. Within 5 minutes, a few utility people were driving around. I think a power line exploded.

Last Night All Over Again, Without the wIErdness

Night of: September 1
People Involved: Kyle
Number of Dreams Remembered: 2
Length of Sleep: 10 hours

Kyle and I hung out with a girl we hadn't seen or hung out with before. It was me that set up the get-together, and I kinda liked the girl that we hung out with. However, Kyle said he thought she was cute, and was going to flirt with her. I told Kyle, "You already flirt with like 10 girls... you don't need anymore. Let me have this one."

In Retrospect: I can't remember who the girl was or what she looked like, but this is definitely because we hung out with Camellia, who we haven't seen in 6 years, last night.
-----
I was correcting someone's paper, and the word "weird" was in it, but spelled "wierd." I changed it, but the person said it was correct to begin with. I thought about it, and said, "Hmm... 'I' before 'E' except after 'C.' You're right."

In Retrospect: I think the person in this dream was Camellia, but I'm not positive.

The New Nintendo

My friend todd (poker buddy from church) kept talking about how he was getting "The New Nintendo System," and that i should come over when he gets it. The day had finally arrived, but when i got there, he didn't actually have it; he just showed me a picture of it on ebay. As soon as i saw it, i realized it was just a Japanese gamecube, but i didn't have the heart to tell him. It looked kinda like a Super Famicom (Japanese Super Nintendo), but it was purple. At some point, Todd figured out what was going on as well, and he tried to cancel the order.

I've known todd for a long time, and what i knew him for originally was that he had more (regular) nintendo games than anyone i knew, so he was basically my hero. At poker, he often talks to Ryan and I about video games, and he's even proposed having a video game night instead of poker sometime, but that's never happened. Also, buying the japanese gamecube on ebay reminded me of when i was trying to find a super nintendo on ebay, but all i could find was japanese ones.

Weird Wedding

We were going to my sister's wedding, and we went to my other sister's new house first because it was close to where the wedding was. To burn some time, we were watching a movie. I believe it was like Galaxy Quest, but i hadn't seen it before. At some point, my mom paused it so she could make a phone call. I was mad at her because she had seen it, so she had no reason to pause.

I headed out on my own to find the wedding place. I had mapquest/googled it already, but i didn't bring any printouts with me, so i was getting confused. I got to a point where i thought i was close, so i decided to park and proceed on foot. I noticed two mexican kids following me (who i later decided were Caesar and Antoine from New Mexico). They finally spoke up and said something like, "We're following you because we want your car." They also said something about their own car like they were willing to make a trade or something. I said, "Yeah right," and i continued walking. I hopped over a wall, and they stopped following me. After finding myself in some sort of mall, i finally decided i was lost, and i would head back and go with everyone else, so i turned around to go back to my car. When i came over the wall again, there they were again, but Caesar was wearing the orange hawaiian shirt that i had been wearing. I looked down at myself, and i was no longer wearing it! I said, "come on, man; give it back; that's my favorite shirt." He refused, and i realized there was nothing i could do, so i just walked with them back to where my car was. On the way, we met up with an older mexican guy who i decided was their dad after Caesar gave him my shirt. I felt a little sorry for them at this point because i got the impression that they were poor and had to steal clothes for their dad, so i turned back to the dad and said, "It's a sweet shirt, huh?" (Trying not to sound sarcastic, but failing) He nodded and smiled. I got all the way to the end of the street where my car was parked, and it was nowhere to be found. Now i was mad. I started to go back to where Caesar and Antoine were because i knew they had something to do with it. On the way, i started to slow down and say, "this has to be a dream," and then i started to wake up.

I woke up on my sister's couch and realized that i had had that bad dream because i fell asleep when my mom paused the movie, so now i was even more mad at her. Also, the dream was pretty vivid and fresh in my mind, so i decided i should post it there before i forget about it, so i went on my sister's computer to post it.

Retrospectus: I'm going to Luke's wedding tomorrow, and i'm planning on going to zack's before hand because it's close.
Recurring Theme: My car is missing/stolen.
