printed ticket

I dreamt that I was going to a concert with some friends. I had prepared in advance and had purchased a high end ticket ahead of time. When I went to use it, I was shocked that they said my name was not on the list. I showed him my ID, told him where I had purchased it, even showed him the receipt on my iphone. He wouldn't take it. I was upset. I went to leave and go home to get it, and someone else told me that I could just print it in the lobby and it would be fine. I was upset that the man didn't give me these instructions.

lining

I dreamt that I was in Austin, TX for a rodeo. I could see that all of the people in the stands were wearing white cowboy hats. They looked much larger than cowboy hats do normally. They felt like a happy and light hearted bunch. I had a purse in my hand and I guess that I had made it. It had all different sections in it and I had put a different color of lining in each section. I noticed it didn't turn out as I had wanted. I had glued it in, and it seems you could see the glue through the fabric and it shrunk. All in all, it was still a neat design and I went to show my dad, but he didn't care.

window dress

I dreamt my brother, sister in law and step mother were going on trip. I was to or take care of cats. Sister in law was being passive aggressive saying... "Im worried if the cats will be ok."

I was busy with my own life and so was running many errands, but showed up at the large house before them. I could hear them come in the large building. It was somewhat like a castle, with turrets and lots of windows in the ceilings, it seemed to need better care. I was putting my things in the house. I noticed they cleared the bathroom cabinet for me which was nice. It was a nice mirror with wide dark wood frame that you couldn't tell opened. The counter had a wet black towel and finger nail clippings on it. I decided I would clean it all up before I put my things away.

Then I heard them come in.... I could hear them talk about me, wondering where I was etc., but not in the best light.

I looked up through the windows.. I could see the winds swirling. They arrived in the back sun room where I was where they realized I was there. CC said something about the wind. The sky was red and smokey looking to where you could see the movement.   Flocks of birds flew over but you could just see their silhouettes in the sky. It was beautiful and haunting. There were so many many birds, almost as though they were aware of something that we were not.  Then one silhouette hovered over and it looked like an old dark ages drawing of some sort of bird or dragon that was mythical. CC said "See that dress? That has been here since I was a little girl. I should probably work on getting that down." I looked, and outside on one of the very high windows was a dress, spinning and swirling against the window on its own. It was a vertical window, there is no way that dress should have been there. I could see a body scurry up the widow. It was hooded. It kept fighting to get the dress. It seems he finally succeeded because he plunged down from the window toward the ground. I could see that he had a harness and ropes. Did he get it? I wasn't quite sure. It almost seemed liked he was escaping it. Then I saw many Africans with very black skin. They had white powder or paint on parts of their bodies and faces, mainly the upper half of their head and they were all somewhat unclothed. They all had shortly cropped hair and each had a different design of the white on them. I told CC that they must be daemon hunters of sorts. 

rail end

I dreamt I worked for some sort of old time shipping company. The business near a river and a train track. I worked for them and I had needed to go with a train shipment and/or go after one that was incorrect. I was on a small train but outside, trying to catch up to the other. I liked the wind, the view of the river, it was nice. Then the train tracks came to an end over the river. The train came to a halt and the jolt threw me. I went flying through the air and my goal was to reach the other side where the tracks continued. With my all of my thoughts and flailing arms, I tried to reach it, but somewhere mid air, I knew there was no way. I was hovering at a very high point and looked down. I hadn't realized how high up I was. I felt there was no way to make a fall like this in water. As I fell I tried to think of the best position to be in... a dive? an angle to swim? Right before I hit I seemed to have caught air and dove in. I was alive and so happy I made it. I got up and realized I was in shallow water and walked to the edge. I made it back to work and the current vp of my company (BG) was there. He hadn't realized that I had left with that shipment and was worried about me. I went up to him and we leaned into each other, the right sides of our foreheads touching. He said something along the lines that he cared about me, and we turned towards each other. He gave me a touching kiss on the right cheek. It felt like warm love.

Little Girl

I dreamt that I was in a building and was a bit lost in its corridors. There was a swimming pool, other people, possibly students. It was a building of learning of sorts. I left the building and seemed to be going through the woods and ended up at a river. A little girl was with me, as well as my mother, and a friend of my mother's. The friend asked me "was your mother nice to you?"  I answered her not vindictively, not as a victim, but in a matter of fact manner, "no she wasn't." I could tell that the woman knew this, but she was giving me an opportunity to have it in the open with a witness (her), my mother and myself. It is blurred what happened next. I think the woman was gone and it seemed my mom either was too, or turned into a Native American man. Not just any, but she was the one in Last of the Mohicans that tries to kill the people at the end. He was going after the little girl. He had a very long spear, but it seemed to be all metal. I went to go stop him, but part of me felt like I ...hmmm  maybe she was supposed to die? or maybe I knew I couldn't really help her? I'm not quite sure, but the result being that I could not do this by myself. I heard noise behind me and there were a large group of other Native Americans that were running through the river over to us. They gave off a light and they were running to come help. They killed the one man and then they disappeared. The little girl and I sat on a log. I realized at that moment that she was me. I asked her if she was a ghost, although I knew she was me, I didn't know "what" she was. She smiled and said "something like that."  She said that she has been with me all along. She was very confident and sure of herself. 

glass half steps

I dreamt that I was in a foreign country. Well, it felt like the excitement of NYC, but it was more like southern Italy. I was walking through the city, on the street with buildings on one side and a park on the other. I was on my way to a class. It felt nice and new but also an uncomfortable that can come with unknown anticipation. I had this feeling before, so I knew it was the beginning of something good even if it was scary. The class I was going to take was glass blowing. I hadn't realized I had signed up for it or even had been interested. I thought kind of neat though... I'll learn something I don't know and get to be creative.

Someone was showing me one of the first projects we would be working on. It was a miniature scene, like a village or group of people, that was attached to cloth. I thought this was neat, but at the same time I wondered why the cloth wouldn't burn if you were torching a piece of glass to it? I was still looking forward to making it.

It seems the class was over and people were leaving. I was with my coworker DA. We were walking back to an apartment or maybe to get something to eat. We had to walk up some stairs. I had remembered them (dream only) as being European steps. Only half of the step was there, so either the front of your foot or the back of your foot would never rest on the step. It felt not very safe because you always had to be aware of where you were placing your feet.

We were on the top of the stairs and now descending. There was a couple there walking to the park. They had quadruplets in a stroller. The mother was able to rearrange the stroller so it could have them 2x2 or 1x4 to be less in the way. They were sweet. DA seemed irritated and it was affecting my mood. She was walking with a long leash that made me have to step around behind her. I asked her if she could pick it up? or even if I could roll it up and put it in my bag. She was thinking .. oh don't bother, but it was a bother.

Then we were in an apartment. I think we needed to meet someone there ?? not sure. It was filthy. The child there was filthy, the walls were filthy. It felt awful, but I didn't want them to feel like I was judging them, I just wanted out as soon as possible.

broken dishes

I dreamt that I was my brother was moving into my place. I think I had just moved to this place, it was an apartment in a building. I had unpacked all of my dishes and had finally made everything just so. I saw that he had boxes of kitchen items on the counters. I didn't like the ideas of mixing our things. I knew he would forget what was his and what was mine and it would be annoying when it came to splitting everything up. I was going to tell him to just leave his things, but then I decided he could have his things out and I would pack mine back up. I saw that two of my dishes had already been broken. He was about to give me some excuses of why it broke and that it was just a dish, not a big deal, when he realized he actually had broken one of his own dishes that were his nice ones. He wasn't happy. I was glad about my decision to pack up my things. 

woke up to this song in my head - Is There Something I Should Know

Please please tell me now, please please tell me now
Please please tell me now, please please tell me now

I made a break I run out yesterday tried to find my mountain hideaway
Maybe next year maybe no go
I know you're watching me every minute of the day yeah
I've seen the signs and the looks and the pictures that give your game away yeah
There's a dream that strings the road a broken glass for us to hold
And I cut so far before I had to say

Please please tell me now is there something I should know
Is there something I should say that'll make you come my way
Do you feel the same cause you don't let it show

Oh oh, oh, oh people stare and cross the road from me
oh oh, And jungle drums they all clear the way for me
Can you read my mind can you see in the snow
And firey deamons all dance when you walk through that door
Don't say you're easy on me you're about as easy as a nuclear war There's a dream that strings the road with broken glass for us to hold
And I cut so far before I had to say

Please please tell me now is there something I should know
Is there something I should say that'll make you come my way
Do you feel the same cause you don't let it show

Please please tell me now is there (please please tell me now)something I should know
Is there (please please tell me now) something I should say
That'll (please please tell me now) make you come my way
Please please tell me now can you see (please please tell me now) what makes me blow
Can you (please please tell me now) see how much I'd die
Everytime (please please tell me now) it passes by
Please please tell me now what it (please please tell me now) takes to make it show
Is there (please please tell me now) something I should know
Is there (please please tell me now) something I should know

woke up to this song in my head - The Auctioneer

There was a boy in Arkansas who wouldn't listen to his ma
When she told him that he should go to school
He'd sneak away in the afternoon, take a little walk and pretty soon
You'd find him at the local auction barn
Well he'd stand and listen carefully then pretty soon he began to see
How the auctioneer could talk so rapidly
He said, "Oh my it's do or die I've got to learn that auction cry
Gotta make my mark and be an auctioneer"

25 dollar 30 now 30 dollar 30 dollar
30 dollar 30 dollar give me a hollar 30 dollar
who will bid it at a 35 dollar bid?
35 dollar 35 35 make it 35 and a 35 make it 35 and a 35
Who will bid it at a 35 dollar bid?

As time went on he did his best and all could see he didn't jest
He practied on and then some night and day
His pappy'd find him behind the barn just a workin up an awful storm
As he tried to imitate the auctioneer
Said his pappy, "Son we just can't stand a havin' a mediocre man,
You gotta take that auction usin' our good name.
I'll send you off to auction school and then you'll be nobody's fool
You can take your place among the best"

35 dollar 40 now 40 dollar 40 dollar
40 dollar 40 dollar give me a hollar 40 dollar
Who will bid it at at a 40 dollar bid?
40 dollar 45 45 will you make it 45 give me 45 and a 45
Who will bid it at a 45 dollar bid?

So from that morning he went to school there grew a man who played it
cool
He came back home a full fledged auctioneer
And people came from miles around just to hear him make that rhythmic
sound
That filled their hearts with such a happy cheer
His fame reached out from shore to shore he had all he could do and more
He had to buy a plane to get around
Now he's the tops in all the land so let's all give that man a hand
He's the best of all the auctioneers

45 dollar 50 now 50 dollar 50 dollar
50 dollar 50 dollar give me a hollar 50 dollar
Who will bid it at a 50 dollar bill?
50 dollar 55 55 make it 55 and a 55 make it 55 and
Sold that horse for a 50 dollar bill
Hey well alright sir here we go there and what are ya' gonna give for 'em.
I have a 600 dollar down here now 10 and now 25 and now 35 and now there 50 now 60 will ya' give me 60 now 75, 75 another 85 dollars another buy 'em there.

There was a boy in Arkansas
who wouldn't listen to his ma
when she told hi-im he should go to school.
He'd sneak away in the afternoon,
take a little walk then pretty soon,
you'd find him at the local auction barn.

He'd stand and listen carefully.
Then pretty soon he began to see
how the auctioneer could talk so rapidly.
He said, "Oh my, it's do or die.
I've got to learn that auction cry.
Gotta make my mark and be an auctioneer."

25 dollar bid it now, 30 dollar 30
Will you gimmie 30 make it 30
Bid it on a 30 dollar will you gimmie 30.
Who'll bid a 30 dollar bid?
30 dollar bid it now, 35, will you gimmie 35
to make it 35 to bid at 35.
Who would a-bid it at a 35 dollar bid?

As time went on, he did his best
and all could see he didn't jest.
He practiced calling bids both night and day.
His pap would find him behind the barn
just working up an awful storm
as he tried to imitate the auctioneer.

Then his pap said, "Son, we just can't stand
to have a mediocre man
sellin' things at auction using our good name.
I'll send you off to auction school.
Then you'll be nobody's fool.
You can take your place among the best."

35 dollar bid it now a 40 dollar 40
Will you gimmie 40 make it 40
Bidin' it on a 40 dollar will you gimmie 40.
Who'll bid a 40 dollar bid?
40 dollar bid it now, 45, will you gimmie 45
to make it a 45 to bid it a 45.
Who would a-bid it at a 45 dollar bid?

So from that boy who went to school
there grew a man who played it cool
he came back home a full-fledged auctioneer.
then the people came from miles around
just to hear him make that rhythmic sound
that filled their hearts with such a happy cheer.

His fame spread out from shore to shore.
He had all he could do and more.
Had to buy a plane to get around.
Now he's the tops in all the land.
Now let's pause and give that man a hand.
He's the best of all the auctioneers.

45 dollar bid it now a 50 dollar 50
Will you gimmie 50 make it 50
Bidin' it on a 50 dollar will you gimmie 50.
Who'll bid a 50 dollar bid?
50 dollar bid it now, 55, will you gimmie 55
To make it a 55 to bid at 55.
Sold that hog for a 50 dollar bill.

Hey well all right sir, open the gate and let�'em out and walk �'em boys.

and now it's at 75 and a 2 and a 3 and a 4 and a 5 and a 6 now 7 now 800 dollars
and a buy 'em there.

woke up to song in head - When I Need You

When I need you
I just close my eyes and I'm with you
And all that I so wanna give you
It's only a heartbeat away

When I need love
I hold out my hands out and I touch love
I never knew there was so much love
Keeping me warm night and day

Miles and miles of empty space in between us
A telephone can't take the place of your smile
But you know I won't be travellin' forever
It's cold out, but hold out and do like I do

When I need you
I just close my eyes and I'm with you
And all that I so wanna give you, babe
It's only a heartbeat away

It's not easy when the road is your driver
Honey, that's a heavy load that we bear
But you know I won't be travellin' a lifetime
It's cold out, but hold out and do like I do

Oh I need you

When I need love
I hold out my hands out and I touch love
I never knew there was so much love
Keeping me warm night and day

When I need you
I just close my eyes
And you're right here by my side
Keepin' me warm night and day

I just hold out my hands
I just hold out my hands
And I'm with you darlin'
Yes, I'm with you darlin'

All I wanna give you
It's only a heartbeat away
Oh, I need you darlin'

niceness

I dreamt that I was at the owner's home of the company I work for. There was a big party there with lots of young ladies. Myself and the VP were upstairs. He seemed very focused on the rules of the place and making sure that the owner was not going to find anything that he was unhappy about. He was being oddly kind to me. Not the usual superficial, get-by-to-get-back nice that he usually is. He actually listened and acted like he cared how I felt. It was nice for a change. We were upstairs checking the rooms. It seems some of the party had continued up the stairs and into the master bedroom, so we were making sure everything was back in its place. The owner arrived just as we were fixing it. We couldn't find the coverlet that went over the duvet, but found something that was just as good. I figured he wouldn't notice the details... which he didn't.

games shop

I dreamt I was in another town or maybe even country. It felt unfamiliar, but it felt homey. Something about it, maybe the smallness, the safeness, the live ability of it, is what made it feel like home.  I was walking along a curving sidewalk bordered by trees and lush plants and little shops or homes here and there. I was on my way to a games shop. It was full of different board games, playing pieces, odd themed accessories. I was looking for something in-particular. I can't think now of what or why, but it had some sort of meaning to me. There was a blond young fellow behind the counter that was helping me. He was being extra attentive and nice, I assumed because he rarely had females in the shop. Some people came in which curbed my shopping experience. I didn't feel at ease looking for the item with them there. I felt exposed and didn't want them to see what meant something to me, to comment or even worse, want what I treasured. I hurried and bought something that was good enough, although not what I wanted. I had a bit of a feeling of regret in my gut. I knew this wasn't it, why did I feel the need to buy something, why didn't I just leave? I guess I felt as though I had to seem like I knew what I was doing or give back for the clerk's time or? not sure, but it was nothing from or for myself. I walked out of the store looking at my new item. It was a silver ring with a die on it.  I guess it was ok...
