I mainly dreamt that I rented out an office and then panicked that I did and misc. other stressful things.

ghost movie
I dreamt that I was telling a friend about an actor. I was saying... don't you remember? He was in that movie where he was dad and alive. I'm not sure if he was a ghost or an angel but his non-physical self was talking to his real self in the movie. You could tell who was who because the non-physical one had no wedding ring, but the physical one did.

doc appointment
I dreamt that my boss had rattled off a ton of different appointments to make and some just numbers of docs that he might be seeing. The next day he was asking why I hadn't set certain appointments. I knew that he hadn't told me to, but I acted like I forgot and was comical about it. Surprisingly he laughed and was good natured about it too. It was nice to see him be human.

beautiful dream
I dreamt I was or felt like I was in Italy. The colors were sunny, the dirt was light colored, the place was simple and so was the life. I felt as though I was at a relatives... maybe a grandmother, maybe an aunt. I felt relaxed and at home, more so than I ever have in reality.
In the dream I had a best girlfriend. One I could really trust and feel at ease around. Something I also haven't experienced in reality. We were in the house at first... talking and sitting on the couch. Our clothes were light colored and airy. The weather was lightly warm and lightly breezy.
Then we were outside, where the laundry would normally be hung on the lines. We laid on our backs and looked up at the sky and talked. We were youngish... just becoming women. We were making fun of our bodies and how skinny we were and laughing.
Then we were walking through town. The streets were part dirt, part cobble stone. It was quiet, like a Sunday. I was walking next to the buildings, and watching how the sun moved across the grain of wood and along the worn tile as I walked. I was thinking how excited I was to get a recording soon... (in my dream I was imagining an old camera... but also was aware I was getting a new iphone soon). I was also being told to take videos.... take the camera where ever I go.... record the handsome men I meet, record the beauty... record the romance....show him/her to please and entice ....I couldn't wait to capture all of the beauty I was seeing.
I was missing a friend (MG) or a boy.... I was to send him or her the videos to give them a nice feeling.
We saw a woman leaving a wedding. It looked like the wedding was over, as she looked a little tussled. She was tall, slender, beautiful, dark hair, long dress.... she had a video of the wedding... or something.
We watched.. two old couples doing fun things... laying at the edge of a cliff by the ocean.. heads hanging over the edge watching the sea upside down, feeling the sun and enjoying life.
During the dream I could hear cello in the background.

Booty
I dreamt that I was at some retreat or armory where there was an event, but I felt that I knew everyone pretty well at that point and they were not family, but felt close.
I think it was nearing towards the end of an activity or the end of the event all together. Then it seemed like we were in a small market. A couple of men came in with guns to rob the place. I think we were scared a bit and a bit not. He was very friendly. He was focused on what he needed and very calm and cool and pleasant about it. I had a bag of Pirate's Booty in my hand and was concerned about making noise. I didn't want to draw attention to myself. He did notice though and was walking towards me. In my dream I had popcorn breath, and didn't want him to smell it either to notice me more. As he was walking towards me I was actually starting to get a smirk on my face and he was too. He was just coming over to kid me.
Then we were all back to the armory type place and cleaning up. At first there were a bunch of folks milling around. I went to the basement to go to the bathroom and retrieve my things. I had noticed the management had left a lot of toiletry kits on a shelf for people to take. I wondered why no one had. I picked a couple of them up to look at them. One was all foot care related and I'm not sure of the other one. I thought about taking one, but then thought against it. I partly wasn't sure I wanted more stuff, partly would feel guilty that maybe I was taking them without the others being aware of the bounty that they could have ... The bathroom was decorated kind of like a grandma's from way back when. It had a fluffy pink toilet lid cover, and cozy fluffy things around for decoration.
I went back up stairs to help with the clean up. A lot of folks had left, but I think were supposed to come back for one more activity. I was looking to move some tables. One girl I had gone to highschool with but did not hang out with had already cleaned the dishes (TR). I felt bad I hadn't helped enough. I continued to help and then an Indian woman came to me saying that someone had knocked on the door, but she was scared to let them in because she was alone. She could see it was a young teen. I told her that I would go with her and that maybe we should wait until the other arrived.
Something else happened with a guy I know that moved to Australia from the Netherlands... but I don't remember what exactly. Just a nice feeling left.

First I dreamt that I was at a gas station. A couple of us had campers or caravans an we were getting some food. I think there was a fast food place there. It all felt kind of fun.
Then I found a stone. It was black with a texture of pokey crystals. I was supposed to carry it with me. I was talking to someone in "the know" and they suggested a ring. One just happened to pop up out of no where that had a setting large enough for the stone and other stones, which I just happened to have as well. I was filling it up and then she said that the stones I was using were too primitive (one was a shell from St. Helena, a rock and other items). So I found some crystals to put in there.
Then I dreamt I was camping on the beach with a friend of mine (SA) and his brother and son (HA). SA and I were sharing a blanket but my feet were at his head and visa versa. I think we kept on accidentally kicking each other which ended up making us laugh. Then SA was saying that we needed to find the date for the "day" of Aquarius because we needed to throw a party on that day.

bathtub
I dreamt that I was staying at an inn? or sharing a home? or? Not quite sure, but many people in the same home. There was an old couple, white haired, seemed to have been travelers if not still, a couple in their 60s and? possibly some other people. The dream is kind of foggy. I know there was some cooking and conversations about each other. The 60s couple and I were talking about the gray haired couple. They were supposed to join us for something but we were not sure where they were. I think we were joking or maybe being serious saying that one of them had killed their previous spouse and this one was their second. That it is why he or she traveled. I think there was a dinner or something people were cooking for??
For some reason myself and the old couple were getting in a big bathtub. It didn't feel weird at all. More like we were sitting down at a table to talk. The intent was to talk and workout some solutions... I think I was there to help them more than the other way around.

middle floor
I dreamt I was in a very large nice home on a large estate. There either was quite a few different people living there or they were all one family. I felt like an outsider but part of the family at the same time.
There were three levels that I was aware of. A basement type, the middle floor and the top floor or attic. I felt like the "adults" lived in the attic or top floor. I felt the need to appease them and follow their rules. They were not bad people but for some reason I had a small fear in my belly about them and the rules. There had been a little blond girl on the middle floor. She was leaving now and it was going to be my space. I almost felt like she was going to the top floor too. Like she had reached a certain age or "level." I guess this is where the not feeling like part of them came in. I felt like I was not part of their "moving up" or getting noticed. I was just there. Kind of like a ghost... they might be aware of your existence, but they walk right through you. The middle space was large. I seems like there was a lot I could do there, but I wasn't sure what. When I started moving things around, nothing seemed to fit right, the furniture was dirty or missing pieces. I was staying because I was told it was my space. Some musicians from the basement started taking over one of the spaces at the end and I went over and told them no.... this is not your space. You have your space in the basement. So they left. They were all kind of dark, grungy, chubby, dark curly hair types. Then I think we were all going to a wedding of some sort. Everyone looked very nice and dressed up and were on their way. I think I was making sure everything was locked up. The place was so open, and no one seemed to watch out for the house. The people had all gone, but then I heard a noise. I ran to some grass and bushes and laid flat. One of the men had a flashlight and found me. He picked me up, but it was as if he put his hand inside me and was able to pick me up by my heart, which was black. They were not mean, but they were there to steal and I had to do what they told me. Then the dream moved on to the people being back and a dinner being cooked. My aunt (IV) had microwaved or boiled? some potatoes and had left. They were done and I wasn't sure if I was supposed to peel them, but I did. I had made a salad to go with the dinner, but it was odd... noncooked potatoes and beets but you soaked them in some sort of liquid marinade so long that they became edible. I wasn't too sure about the texture. Someone was to have cooked turkey, but everyone forgot, so someone cooked chicken. I went to walk around to pass time and there were many people on my floor at the end... the end near light were I had wanted to set up a seating place before. They were watching a football game. I walked around the edge so they couldn't see me so I could get to the basement and look around.

back to school
I dreamt I was in the parking lot of a school. It was one that was in the town I grew up (although this actual building and place did not exist). I saw old school mates that were all grown up now. We were all headed back for something. I almost felt like we were taking similar classes. I think I had some sort of English class first. We were all outside and talking. I had put my carry-on suitcase on top of someone's car. Then I was talking to some other people I used to know. It felt cozy and nice although I think I was being annoying some how. Maybe joking too much. The time had come to go to class. I went to the admittance office as I wasn't sure where my class was. Kevin Cline was standing there and in my dream was one of the instructors. I think I was trying to joke and talk to him too. I found my class and went in. They classmates were all familiar. The seating were old tweedy beige plaid couches. I sat next to (JV) a tall blond guy. I felt partly like I knew what we would be covering and I wasn't stressed, I was just be happy to be doing something.

microwave cookie
I dreamt that I was buying a house. It seemed as if it was almost given to me or that someone cut me a deal on the pricing. It was a home of someone I used to work with (JB). A photographer friend of mine (CE) and JB were helping me move in. One of them put my bicycle on the porch. They were telling me that I should put it away so that it wouldn't get stolen. One of them had given me the bike and I was thinking as soon as they left, I wanted to change the handle bars.
The kitchen was yellow and I was thinking of what color I could paint it. It excited me to be able to choose the colors for where I live again. The kitchen appliances had also been given to me by someone else. They were not new, but they were still nice although outdated in color.
Then I dreamt I was going on a road trip with my dad. There was a box of silverware and plates in the back of the car. I was looking through it and there were children's silverware in there. I had two chocolate chip cookies and my dad wanted me to microwave his so it would be warm. The microwave was also in the back. I handed him his cookie and then thought it was odd that mine was warm too. Then I realized I had taken his microwaved cookie and given him my cold one. We were parked next to a lake and there was a huge crane or tractor in it. We saw it starting to tip over and then the whole thing submerged in it. No one was going to it or concerned. I was worried at first, but then thought.. if no one is running, then there must not be anyone inside the tractor. It seems they were building a bridge across the lake and there were huge rectangular rocks they were using for the foundation. I looked in the lake and then saw a man float to the top. My heart sank but then he moved and was still alive.
Then I was in my friend's (PC) house. It wasn't her real one. A friend of ours was over (BM) and he was telling us about a new project he wanted to work on. It was similar to what he started doing. They were photos of people or women, but it wasn't about the outcome of the photos but about breaking your shell. They would pose in ways or make faces that were out of character to stretch their boundaries. He was really excited about it.
He was also fixing a desk area in PC's house. He wanted to make it simple. It was a tiny tiny desk made of glass, metal and mirror. The more he moved it the more it became simple. It had curly metal legs and a box top and another piece that was a box that sat inside.
Then I dreamt that I was getting ready for school, but I was late. I was questioning if I should go. I had math first and I knew it already, so it didn't seem important. I was wearing clothes not of my taste... white shoes, long ruffly skirt in denim and a pink and white top that some how all looked good together.

caves
First I dreamt I was waiting for a ride to somewhere. I think my aunt (IE) was going to pick me up. I was waiting near a junk yard of sorts. More of a piles of well used items yard. It wasn't smelly or gross, just lots of things in one place in a disorderly fashion ... and dirt.
Then I was walking back through the living spaces. There were some people there I didn't quite know, but knew in the dream. It felt like caves, but caves that had old tree roots growing through them like you see in some tropical Asian countries. I was trying to point out some things I had seen to the guys. I think I was looking for statues or other symbolic old relics. Again, it was kind of dirty, but not smelly, gross or horrible. It was more earthy and interesting and I wanted to see more.

journey
I dreamt that I spent a day with this woman (MS). She isn't someone I know well. She is a doctor, smart, reserved, nice .... but neutral. We have never spent much time together so there is nor good or bad chemistry...
I spent they day with her going places. We walked in a park, drove in a car, ran errands. I wasn't sure why I was driving her around. I was trying to be nice? or helpful maybe? But I didn't feel like I was going out of my way nor did I feel that warm feeling you can get from helping someone. I just felt like time spent, with no emotion, activities done, with no emotion. Nothing good, nothing bad.
molds..
I dreamt that for who knows why... someone made molds of my nipples. I had no feeling attached to it although possibly just that it was odd. I saw a few of them on a table.. well the objects that were made from them. There were several other people's on the table as well. I recognized mine immediately which I also thought was odd, because they are not something I study per say.
hair clip
I dreamt I was with this guy (GH). My hair was up in a hair clip and a little frazzled. The guy took it out of my hair and broke it. He said.. "who you trying to be? Debbie Gibson??" I was upset with him and asked him why he would do that and why did he have to break the clip. It really hurt my feelings.

suitcases
I dreamt I had been looking in a catalog for suitcases. I more or less knew what I wanted. A carry-on that was high quality (wouldn't fall apart). I woman came in and I got excited because I recognized the suitcases as some that I had seen in the catalog. It was a package deal where you would get several shapes and sizes of suitcases, in multiple colors, but the quality wasn't so great. I was worried that after having shown excitement, my mom and others would think that is something I wanted. I had no way of letting them know because the woman was still in the room and I didn't want to hurt her feelings.

arrondissements
I dreamt that I was showing my mom a cabin. It was dark wood inside with peaks and many rooms. I think we planned on staying there. There was a woman that was showing us the place. The place was nice but it felt awkward, too many rules, too many people and their "ways."
Then there was a train. But although I was in it or thinking of going in it and on the journey, it was like I was watching it move from above on a map. I could see how the city was arranged. The train stopped in the middle of the city, and there were 5 sections. Each section touched the train track. It was as if you lined up 5 rectangles in a row and then placed a stick so it ran down the middle. In my dream I called the sections rende(douce)ment (rende=make, douce=soft, ment=ly in French).... although I think I meant arrondissements (which is districts).

pumpernickel mouth
My car was parked next to a park or green space. I was looking through the trunk. I had some old papers and memorabilia stored in there. I took a pile and sat on the ground and looked through them. Some of the items felt valuable ....worth money due to their age etc. and some I wondered why I kept... and why I kept multiples. I had a collage I made of different colors.. light blue with a gold structure and a pink color. I had three versions of it. I thought it was nice, pretty, made me feel good but why did I make three versions of the same thing? I decided to keep them. And after the decision was again wondering.. why am I keeping them and why all three again. After not seeing them this long and forgetting that I owned them...
Then myself and some guy were going somewhere. Down the street? something felt lost, late or confused about it.
Then I was in my friend's (MB) apartment. He had a new roommate and I was finally going to meet him. He had told me the guy was a redhead, but he ended up being a very petite Indian guy. He was very nice. He had a fancy espresso machine set up in the kitchen. I knew my friend didn't like it but I found out how it would be beneficial to him, so I was excited to confirm it with the new roommate. The old kitchen sink had been removed to hold a small bar sink. I had asked MB about it and he said it was his other roommate that put it in right before he left, and he would switch it back later. So I walked around the counter where he had installed a temporary large sink. MB was going on and on about how the pavement outside was the strongest pavement out there right now. It was a lower grade, but it was like he was defending it. It was between the pavement and the Formica... that was the strongest this and that.
Then I was in kind of a nice home. It had a really nice outdoor/deck area and cozy inside. It was also well equipped. It felt nice to be there. I had a boyfriend in the dream and he was nice also. Very caring and sharing. Then his mother came home unexpectedly. It was actually her home. She was pleasant enough but also there was a bit of fear I felt around her. Nothing outwardly, but I knew she could change things for he and I in an instant with her comments. My friends MG and PC stopped by as well. It was a pleasant visit and nice to see them but I almost felt about them like I did the mother... well one of them and the other was the "nice" one.
- - - -
Then I was dreaming of some woman that seemed out of the 50s but from another country. Kind of a simple minded busy body. Chatty, smiley, not easily understanding things... she was supposed to learn a new language and needed to get on it quickly. There was a human head on the wall.. it was hers... almost? and talking to her as well. It was telling her of what she needed to get done. They eyes kept trying to follow her, but they kept going in the opposite direction from where she was standing as if the "mechanism" wasn't working and/or was connected backwards. When I first saw the mouth move, it looked like the little rye rounds for finger sandwiches... almost like a muppet, but then she was human again.

rencontre
I dreamt a friend of mine (TB) was writing to her old boss in email. She was telling him what "rencontre" meant...
The email had a black background with chalk lettering. The feeling was uncomfortable. It was like being in a place I didn't belong or didn't fit in or didn't understand and it didn't understand me.
freedom
woke up with this song in my head this morning:
Freedom
George Michael
I won't let you down
I will not give you up
Gotta have some faith in the sound
It's the one good thing that I've got
I won't let you down
So please don't give me up
Because I would really, really love to stick around
Heaven knows I was just a young boy
Didn't know what I wanted to be
I was every little hungry schoolgirl's pride and joy
And I guess it was enough for me
To win the race? A prettier face!
Brand new clothes and a big fat place
On your rock and roll TV
But today the way I play the game is not the same
No way
Think I'm gonna get me some happy
I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I told you so
There's something deep inside of me
There's someone else I've got to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Take back your singing in the rain
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don't belong to you
And you don't belong to me
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Heaven knows we sure had some fun boy
What a kick just a buddy and me
We had every big shot good-time band on the run boy
We were living in a fantasy
We won the race
Got out of the place
I went back home got a brand new face
For the boys on MTV
But today the way I play the game has got to change
Oh yeah
Now I'm gonna get myself happy
I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I stopped the show
There's something deep inside of me
There's someone I forgot to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Don't think that I'll be back again
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don't belong to you
And you don't belong to me
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Well it looks like the road to heaven
But it feels like the road to hell
When I knew which side my bread was buttered
I took the knife as well
Posing for another picture
Everybody's got to sell
But when you shake your ass
They notice fast
And some mistakes were built to last
That's what you get
I say that's what you get
That's what you get for changing your mind
And after all this time
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes
Do not make the man
I'll hold on to my freedom
May not be what you want from me
Just the way it's got to be
Lose the face now
I've got to live

baby hippo
I was in a classroom right before class was to start. I was stressed and I think I was about to either start a paper, hand in a paper, or take a test. I knew I wasn't doing well in the class, but I couldn't understand why. I was smart, I always did well. I talked to my instructor to see how well I was faring. She was not warm and fuzzy about it. She showed me a paper that said C+ on it. I was upset and said C+!! Really? How????
I walked out the front steps of the school. I was telling a friend the story and I was still upset. I ended up laying in an air mattress in the fountain near the steps. It was a square pool of water. There was a hippo in there. I had always thought of hippos as cute and nice. It was rummaging around and I felt safe enough. But then as I was flipping through some papers from the class, and I saw it eyeing the papers and it came over and snatched one and started chewing. I was getting nervous as it kept circling me, so I decided to get out. Then it saw my flip flops on the far side, so I raced it there so it wouldn't eat those too. It seemed to be gobbling up my "me" artifacts.
Then I was talking to a couple of friends (PC, RP). I told them that I was going to babysit a baby hippo that night. I was explaining how small (harmless) and cute they were. Then I was in an indoor pool of sorts. It was encased in glass with a door closing it off from the rest of the building. I went into the pool. I think this is where I was supposed to watch the hippo. I looked around... everything was light blue and the glass was steamed up. There was a seal in the water... I looked right at it.. no effect. Then I saw what seemed to be a unicorn... but also was a mermaid with light hair. When I saw the unicorn I was thinking... I wonder why people don't believe that these existed on land when they clearly exist in water?? Then it was a mermaid and I kept avoiding her. I had that kind of fear that is at the pit of your stomach and heart... not horror movie scared, but fear of the unknown becoming known...and once it is known, you have to do something about it. I kept avoiding her eyes and she kept swimming closer trying to get my attention. She couldn't speak like a human, so I knew once our eyes connected, she would be able to say something to me.... and worse yet, she would know that I knew what she said.
Then I was in a room. I was writing a book. It all started making sense. All of my experiences and thoughts were lining up. I was sitting next to a friend (JS). He seemed sage in my dream. I was asking him questions, but he would not answer my question, but guide me into having to answer it myself. I tried to kiss him on the neck to move to a nice feeling, but he avoided it. Then my contacts (which I don't wear) came out. They were much larger than normal contacts. I told them this had never happened. I had been wearing them for a year. He told me that wasn't a good idea. My eyes felt a little scratchy, but I noticed I could see better without them. I found them both on the floor and one had cracked. I couldn't put them back in anyway, but we put the one that was whole in some solution.

mickey mouse carpet
I dreamt I was in a workshop with a group of people. They were from all walks of life. I was feeling a little lost and possibly behind. Then the instructor said the ones that know the least, change (benefit) the most. Then I felt a little better.
We were all leaving the workshop and going back to our cars, although I hadn't driven. The older man with white hair and a big belly said..." you know, you are about the size of my (title of job - meaning a man who puts in sinks)." He was saying it in a way that he was pondering me doing it. His XX always complained about his job and he wanted someone who could just come in and do the work, do what they were paid for. He said he would keep me in mind. It made me think...how nice that would be as a boss. To have someone do what they were asked to do, paid to do, without the resistance. Then I thought about myself in my own work and how much I'm the one resisting and shuddered.
I continued walking, since I needed to walk to get to where ever my home was. It seemed like a picturesque town. IT was small, quaint, with hills and little streets. A guy I went to high school with (DZ) was there and said he could walk with me. We walked down a dirt street with one side lined with little shops. I looked in one. It was painted red inside and had large old planks of wood for the floors. They were not finished, but they were smooth from ware and had space between the planks. At the very end was a counter and to the right was a barrel bbq. I realized it was a woman I used to work with's place. I told DZ... hey, I know her.... she just opened up this bbq place. I was thinking.. hmm maybe I should help her with her biz.
We walked by some remnants of a construction site. There were left over pieces of counter and wood paneling. DZ said let me show you something. One of the pieces of wood panel had a stain on it. He took a piece of cardboard and placed it underneath. All of a sudden the stain started changing levels of dark. Then it started to fade until it was gone. I was amazed and said "how neat! now they can use it!" Then it continued to change. He told me that it will have an affect at the end and it will look fuzzy. They call it the bear fur affect. I went up to it and touched it and sure enough, the surface had tiny fibers all over it and the paneling had changed to a brightly colored design with Mickey Mouse in the middle wearing a marching band outfit and blue and yellow triangles decorating the edges.
I was thinking hmmm... that would be fun to do in Vegas (for some reason). But when I thought that, the procedure turned to the lighting of a match causing the change to happen. Then I saw a film that happened in the same place in Vegas I was thinking of. And these mental inmates were dancing around. One man in particular was the main character. He had long hair and was dancing oddly.

jupitor
Woke up with this tune in my head:
Drops Of Jupiter lyrics
Songwriters: Hotchkiss, Robert S; Monahan, Pat; Stafford, James W; Underwood, Scott Michael; Colin, Charlie;
Now that she's back in the atmosphere
With drops of Jupiter in her hair, hey
She acts like summer and walks like rain
Reminds me that there's a time to change, hey
Since the return from her stay on the moon
She listens like spring and she talks like June, hey, hey
But tell me, did you sail across the sun?
Did you make it to the Milky Way
To see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated?
Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star?
One without a permanent scar
And then you missed me
While you were looking for yourself out there?
Now that she's back from that soul vacation
Tracing her way through the constellation, hey
She checks out Mozart while she does Tae-Bo
Reminds me that there's room to grow, hey
Now that she's back in the atmosphere
I'm afraid that she might think of me as
Plain ol' Jane told a story about a man
Who was too afraid to fly so he never did land
But tell me, did the wind sweep you off your feet?
Did you finally get the chance
To dance along the light of day
And head back to the Milky Way?
And tell me, did Venus blow your mind?
Was it everything you wanted to find?
And then you missed me
While you were looking for yourself out there
Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken
Your best friend always sticking up for you
Even when I know you're wrong?
Can you imagine no first dance, freeze-dried romance
Five-hour phone conversation
The best soy latte that you ever had, and me?
But tell me, did the wind sweep you off your feet?
Did you finally get the chance
To dance along the light of day
And head back toward the Milky Way?
But tell me, did you sail across the sun?
Did you make it to the Milky Way
To see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated?
And tell me, did you fall for a shooting star?
One without a permanent scar
And then you missed me
While you were looking for yourself?
And did you finally get the chance
To dance along the light of day?
And did you fall for a shooting star?
Fall for a shooting star?
And now you're lonely looking for yourself out there
almond quartz
I dreamt I was taking some sort of class. The man was rattling off sentences we had to create based on subjects. Sounds easy, but in the dream it was challenging. I was listing the subjects quite quickly and I couldn't write them down fast enough. I told someone sitting next to me .. that this was nuts. How does he expect us to get this done. I heard one of the subjects that stuck in my memory. Something about almond quartz. I had never heard of almond quartz before... how was I supposed to write an intelligent sentence on it? I just happened to have an encyclopedia in my lap. I looked up almond quartz.. it had been discovered by a Dr. Almond, but the book didn't list any of the qualities about it.
motorcycle
Dreamt there was a slow motorcycle drivign along side me. I was thinking I wanted one just like it. It would be perfect, small, less gas, not as dangerous etc.
linen
Dreamt something about white linen pants... they looked great when I bought them but now they were not what I thought...
