sophie, dresses, ex's

First I dreamt of my dog Sophie. I havent' had her since 2004 and she might have passed away by now. In my dream I was watching her for someone else in a house. She was being cute and playful as always. I was walking her around in town and she was about to dart out in the road, so I picked her up. I could feel how soft her fur was etc. (she was a lhasa apso). I said something like... maybe you should be my dog again... she agreed some how. It felt nice and right.

I went to an exboyfriend's house. I had forgotten I had left some things. I had some little piece of furniture and then a pile of clothes I had forgotten about. Most of the clothes were new and they were dresses and some shoes. I was excited because I didn't feel I had enough clothes and they were also fun. When I am low on clothes, I tend to buy practical things. My exboyfriend was there with me and he was being very nice and helpful. I think we were past anything that was uncomfortable and remembering the nice things. His brother was there too. He was showing me a headboard he made for me. He said he had the idea before we broke up, but he had finally finished it and would like me to have it. It was different in that the back of the headboard had one corner touching the wall as normal and as you went to the other corner that supported the bed that  would normally be against the wall, it went out at about a 30 degree angle away from it. In the space between the bed and the wall was a flat surface and there was a small sink (In the dream my wall in my bedroom had plumbing there). I thought... I guess that could be handy...??  But it was very nice of him and it felt very nice. I went to my car to drive it closer to get my clothes, and when I came back, his mother (who wasn't my biggest fan) had sold my clothes in a garage sale she was having. I was kind of mad, but more I was wanting to hunt down the person and get the things back. I knew they had to be close. I was only gone a second. I had everyone looking for me and we finally found all of the clothes. The mother wanted to look through everything to make sure.. she was almost going to charge me for them... (and really, I didn't care... just wanted them). She saw one dress that wasn't mine. At this point she turned into a boss I had on the weekends when I was in high school. She was a bit of a know it all, a bit controlling. When she started talking I immediately tensed up and was on the defense. I had the feeling that she is someone who controls, tries to take your freedom away and so on. But my reaction was to defend even if there was nothing to defend against. But I got my things and was on my way...

Not sure where this one started... but I had some complication going on between my exboyfriend from high school and some other students. It is like in high school when everyone gets involved with a relationship like it is an old village and they are all working together to make sure things go ok. Kind of sweet in a way looking back at it. But at some point I was in a store. I was about to go on vacation and didn't have many things, so I thought I should buy at least a couple of light tops. I was walking and found a nice light blue-green one that was not so much a t-shirt, so it could be worn for nicer things. At this point a clerk walked up to me that knew me. A guy classmate had come in and was looking for me. I told him thank you and that I would hide amongst the clothes for a while. I had been having a nice time leisurely shopping and didn't want to stop yet. I had a few things under my arm and wanted to try them on and then I ran into more classmates. They were saying that guy A was saying we went out, but what about guy B and so on. I said I hadn't seen anyone in a year, so they maybe have a good imagination. They were all being friendly and nice and mainly were concerned for my well being as much as their's. We sat near the registers. There were some steps and some displays near us with some small hand bags, belts and things. there was a silver frog that was standing with a large opening for his mouth. I kind of wanted to buy it for the office to hold my pencils. I was looking at these things as my friends were talking. One friend was saying that she had just lost some more weight (she was larger but now very small). She was all happy, but the friend next to her had gained and wasn't showing that she was super happy for her. The guy that had come looking for me was sitting by me. I had always had a crush on him in high school and he had always been nice.

Then some dream I was working... having lunch or dinner at a restaurant. The woman was serving us in a speedy manner. She was apologizing for her manner in a way, saying "people think because I am fast, that I'm being rude, but I'm just trying to be efficient and get everything everyone needs." I told her I didn't mind. She didn't seem rude as much as not pleasant to be around. We were about to pay the bill and my friend and I were figuring out tip and cash or credit and so on... He had dropped some money and I had picked it up and then there was confusion about tip. He thought I would tip her too much and I had said no.... I just want to make sure she is tipped.
