peppermint cat

I dreamt that I was in a room. It felt like my childhood room, but with adult colors, adult things, and adult scenarios. I was my current age and looking for shoes to wear. A man in a dark business suit, black hair, a coworker of sorts was waiting in the next room for me and talking with my mother. I needed to sign this, attend that meeting and so on. I was looking through my shoes and couldn't find a partner to the ones I wanted to wear. I realized it was because the heel needed fixing and I hadn't gotten to it yet. I looked through the rest of them. They were out of date and kind of crazy. Why had I been keeping these?  Whey did I buy them in the first place. I kind of felt relieved in having that knowing ... being decisive instead of on the fence. I felt as free from the pile as if they were already gone.  I sat on the edge of my bed to put on my shoes. A cat jumped on to the chair in front of me. It seemed to want my attention. I saw that it had a peppermint candy it its mouth, the white kind with the blue center that I think Lifesavers makes. It dropped it on my lap, which I thought was an accident, so I gave it back to the cat. It then pushed the candy at me... it wanted me to hold it. So I held it, up near the cat so it could see that I had it. Then it proceeded to rub its cheek against it, then its forehead, then the side of its body. Did it want this as perfume?  It was kind of funny to watch and to see the cat be so human like. I was laughing and telling my mom about it, but I don't think she or the man heard me. Still, it was funny.

Then I was in a room. It was kind of a sitting room, an in between room, not in the same house and possibly a completely different situation. Someone who traveled... maybe BB, had dropped off some gifts while I was away. I thought how sweet and wondered what he had left. I looked and it was a nicely shaped object like a box, but rounded... like a ball that had been somewhat flattened. I opened it up to find both halves containing an object that perfectly fit the shape. It was a solid, but a bit soft. I thought was it soap, or ...?  But after reading the instructions, I realized it was rose wine, a solid form. You would add soda water and possibly juice and it would turn into the wine. I was very interested in trying it, but I didn't want to make it and not have anyone else to share it with. There was also  box of chocolates that was left, now for me and my brother and now it also seemed that the gifts were left by my dad and not BB. They were all very fancy, some hand painted with edible colors and all having different shapes. There was a paper on top that told you which each was, but it was difficult to read, as the pic of the item was on top of the paper, and the description was on the opposite side. I tried one randomly and didn't have any luck. It was something much too sweet and chewy and I decided to toss it. I didn't try another. I didn't want to waste them and I didn't want another bad taste in my mouth.

Then I dreamt I was in a car. I was in back roads, ones I have been on before in my dream memory. It was dark, there were fields, high grass, narrow roads and I felt a bit lost. Part of that feeling wasn't good... it felt like I was going to miss something, but part of it felt good, that I was there, enjoying this environment, right here, right now, in a misty night and didn't know what would happen next.
