samples catalog

Someone was setting up for a party for children. It was to be outside and I could see they had hot dog buns and things for a bbq. I asked if they had any vegetarian items just in case. One of the women realized they didn't so that they should go check. I said I could help. Then she went on to say that the reason they had all of this meat is that they just butchered a ?pig or cow? and needed to use it up. They also had a whole bird and a fawn :(. I told them I would put both of those items back in a cold place or freezer and see if there was any vegetarian sausages in the back or barn. The fawn and the bird were both wrapped in green transparent plastic bags. I put the fawn on my shoulder and held the bird with one hand. As I was walking back to the bark I saw a couple of people I knew (in the dream). The man was tall and blond and the woman was shorter. He was walking a dog. The dog kept jumping for the bird and I was holding it up as high as I could. I asked the man to please keep walking and take the dog away, but he kept complaining about the meat and the fawn and not paying any attention to the struggle. Then a white rabbit hopped over and I again begged the man to please leave as I didn't want the rabbit to get hurt, but he didn't seem to hear me or notice and the dog bit the rabbit. I ran over to go push the dog away but then the rabbit bit the dog. I think I stopped and was a bit puzzled but then felt the rabbit could take care of itself.

Then I dreamt I was staying at a house. It seemed like the house I grew up in a bit. An old friend of mine (R, DS's bf) was there. He was cheery and laughing. They were going to sleep in my old room on the floor. It seemed to be the next day and they were talking about the scary something in the corner and laughing about how they had reacted through the evening. I said, oh I know.. I have it all here. I told them that there was an old something/something camera in there from days gone by. The camera would photograph if things moved and could also capture what someone said and put it into text. So I was reading a print out of what they had said that evening and had photos that were greenish like night vision, with their eyes glowing, from the evening. The thing they were scared of was a plastic owl that had been in the corner of the room. It was kind of fun and funny. Then I was looking through some sort of a catalog while R continued to ramble on and giggle. It was a fabric samples or clothing samples catalog of sorts. When I would turn a page, there would be a glossy shot of a sweater top and then a smaller version actually bound in the catalog, but only half of it.. and the other half would be a of another sweater. Or they would have the whole sweater, but just one sleeve missing. I thought some of these might make an interesting sweater for a little girl, and some even I could wear. Then I came to a large brown envelope. It seemed almost like leather, with large white-ish stitches, but I think it was heave paper that was waxed and made to look this way. Either way, very nice and very sturdy. I opened it and there were a pile of sweaters, compressed down. The one on top was a fine gauge red polo type sweater with long sleeves. It looked like a men's. If it was, I was going to give it to R. He was already peeking over my shoulder and saying ... "I'll take that one!".. then there were a couple more that I was able to see... a light gray one with ruffles at the bottom and a light sea green one. It was lots of fun to look through.
