woke up with this song in my head - Just Remember I Love You

When it all goes crazy and the thrill is gone
The days get rainy and the nights get long
When you get that feeling you were born to lose
Staring at your ceiling thinking of your blues

When there's so much trouble that you wanna cry
The world has crumbled and you don't know why
When your hopes are fading and they can't be found
Dreams have left you waiting, friends have let you down

Just remember I love you and it'll be all right
Just remember I love you more than I can say
Maybe then your blues will fade away

When you need a lover and you're down so low
Start to wonder, but you never know
When it feels like sorrow is your only friend
Knowing that tomorrow you'll feel this way again

When the blues come calling at the break of dawn
Rain keeps falling, but the rainbow's gone
When you feel like crying but the tears won't come
When your dreams are dying, when you're on the run

Just remember I love you and it'll be all right
Just remember I love you more than I can say
Just remember I love you and it'll be all right
It'll be alright, it'll be alright, it'll be alright, well it'll be all right

play practice

I dreamt that I was with some people that were practicing for a play. I'm not sure if I was part of it, costumes/props/acting... but I knew I was supposed to be there as I didn't feel out of place. Although, I did feel like an observer.  I was watching people milling about below the stage and the sides working on things. The lead actor and actress were chatting and laughing. She was an actress from a while back, now in her late 60s or early 70s. She was still attractive, dark haired (well most likely with the help of a salon) and kept her petite figure. As I was watching, a tv screen kept bopping in and out of my vision. It was showing a clip of actors who had passed, one image fading into another with the year of 2009 fading in and out like a watermark. It would show a few male actors and then I would be watching play practice again. I wanted to see the total list. I was watching the actors again. There was a prop that was a boat. They were to sit in it and it was mechanized to tilt forward and backward as if floating over waves. He went to sit in the back... again the tv screen turned up.. showing the same list of actors that had passed with the year 2009.  I was back watching the actors and he was all situated in the boat on the back bench. She then got in to sit on the bench in front of him and they practiced with the movement ... and water, getting splashed with it.  I was thinking crazy these days all of the contraptions and props they use in plays and pondering whether simpler was better for a stage. I refocused on the actress and was a bit concerned due to her age... the movements of the boat were not gentle, and although she was in good shape, she still had the bones of an older woman. At one point she held her arms straight up and slid off the back of the bench to lean back on his, smiling the whole time. She seemed just fine,

I looked up 2009 ... and she did look a bit like this:

rhino pup

I dreamt I received a new puppy. I say received because I did remember wanting one, looking for one, or purchasing one. I was walking down the sidewalk with two little dogs on leashes trailing behind. It seems I already had a dog.  I looked back to see what looked like a little white puff ball and a little gray puff ball bouncing along. They were not any breed that exists. I didn't get a good look at my original dog, which was the white one, but I did stop to look at the new pup. It looked like a baby rhino about the size of a cantaloupe. It's fur made it look sound and it was fuzzy and soft. It's little head which was rhino like had a small difference. It didn't have a horn on the tip of its snout, but instead it was on top of its head more like a unicorn. It was pretty adorable.  

little italy

I dreamt that I was in a place like Venice, but it was southern Italy. It was a busy small city with lots going on .. business, tourism, and some seedy bits with mafia and drugs. I hopped on a boat that was heading to my destination. I think that I was supposed to be attending a class. There were benches in the boat with small windows to see outside, with half of the boat exposed to open air. There were some men on there asking where to go out. They thought I must know of some places but I didn't. They kept pushing for information as if I was holding back.  Another girl mentioned to watch out and to be careful as they all could get into trouble if they entered the wrong club.

There was another boat attached to the back of this one, so I decided to jump to that one. It had no one on it and just a large white tarp covering most of it. I tapped it to see if I could walk on the tarp, but it was not taught. I decided to look under it and there were more people. No tourists... just the locals. I looked surprised and said oops! and they all laughed.

At some point we docked and I went on to my class.  I think I was a bit late and was looking for where to go. The building seemed small at first but then I saw that around the corner were escalators and stairs and many floors, almost like a large mall. I went to the escalator which then turned to a moving sidewalk that you had to jump off of to get to other escalators. It was kind of fun and I wanted to explore more.

it all turns out ok

I dreamt I was with my friend MB. He was driving and was preoccupied by something else. We were headed straight for a store that had its doors open. Like straight for it and about to hit it. I said "M!!! Stop! Look up!! We are about to run into this store!!" It was too late, he drove right in as he noticed what was happening, Somehow we made it in the store without hitting anything and he started backing out of it. We stopped to assess if anything happened to the car. When we got out to look at the hood, it was an old metal car for little kids to scoot around in. We looked for the car thinking we somehow got turned around and there were more little cars for children, paint worn off at different degrees.

Then it was evening. I was still in the store or around it. There was a warehouse type thing and??  I woke up snuggled up next to someone. I thought it was someone I wanted to be snuggled up to, but when I opened my eyes, through a haze I saw some other man. He wasn't someone bad, but I didn't like that I didn't know how I got there. I opened them again and it was a horrible man. I was wanting to run, but realized I didn't have the energy. Ugh... how did I do this to myself? He said "by the way, you were arrested last night etc."  I yelled no..... and started crying. But then I woke up and that was a dream in a dream. I was fine and everything would be ok. My life was ok. 

eventual path

I dreamt that I was on a train or tram on my way to a specific location. It was in Germany, Austria or Belgium, .. and knew I would pass by cute villages, rivers and flowers as it was spring. I had a specific place to go, but had never been there and the description was vague. I was to see a bridge, I envisioned with baskets of flowers hanging from it. Then once across the bridge, there would be a path to the left and an house at the end of that path.

I felt like I was on the train with others I knew... or at least was talking to. Or maybe I was just talking to myself, but I saw places that seemed like the right bridge or path, but they just didn't feel right.  I thought, what if that was the one... and I missed it, but I comforted myself in knowing that there would be another opportunity.

I got off at a stop finally and funnily, I saw no bridge or path, but it just felt right. I walked down along the road towards the town and met nice people, and there it was. The bridge and I could see the path to the left right across from it.

Then I was with TMB and SG from work. They were walking along looking at little food stands. We were all chatting. SG said... "so the other day, I gathered up a list of news stations, web sites, reporters and so on.. You know my brother went missing a month ago.  So I sent the list to my family letting them know I would contact them soon and see which ones would be willing to air the story. I cc:'d my brother on it just in case anyone was checking his email."  He paused and was expressionless, in a dry sort of way. He continued, "I got a response back... it was from my missing brother. He wrote, "I think it would have taken me more than a month to create that list." It turns out when I dropped him at the airport, I had sent him with his baggage, but his passport was in my briefcase. He has been stuck at an airport for a month and they didn't allow him to contact anyone."

petrified 3

I dreamt that I was laying on my side. I was awoken by what felt like my hair falling against my neck. I stopped to focus, to check for more movement. I felt more movement. It felt like scurrying.... was a mouse or a rat in my hair? I focused some more, then it felt like fingers scratching the back of my neck. I was petrified and couldn't move. 

petrified 2

I dreamt that I was sitting on a sofa near these very large windows. A friend of mine TMB and I were watching a storm. The clouds were swirling around. It was amazing to watch. At one point the cloud seemed form shapes and come towards the window. I was excited to see it, but then it turned into a hand shape that came from behind to get me. I couldn't move to escape it.

petrified 1

I dreamt that I was sleeping on my side, then felt something or someone pressed up against my back... I couldn't move.

conversations

I dreamt that I was at a movie theater. It seemed to be a nice one. The chairs were nice and had wooden arms and lots of space. I was sitting next to Bill Murray... although I'm not sure he was really him... the actor. More him had he not been the actor. I was in a fluffy white robe, which didn't seem strange and he was dressed normal. We both had a beverage and he had a cigar he was puffing on. I'm pretty sure we were on a date, because I had the feeling he had asked me, and that he had liked me, but as soon as we sat down, he seemed to ignore me. He would respond to questions... but wouldn't turn in my direction what so ever. I relaxed my arm for a moment and it touched his leg. I liked the feeling for a moment, but was now self conscious... I didn't want him to think I was hitting on him so I put it back on my lap.

I decided to get up and move to a table. I didn't need to sit through an awkward night. An older guy was there telling me about a car his uncle was going to give him. He was very excited as it was new, seemed to be able to drive on its own and self charge. It was smaller and seemed to be a bit of an economy car, but still nice.  Then there was another fella that started talking. He was K, a guy I work with. He was explaining something about work and then started drawing plans on the table. I quickly got a napkin and water to see if it would come off ok and it did, so I let him continue drawing.

The older guy started talking again. This time he won a new car and it was a luxury one. I'm thinking... but you just got a new car... what are you going to do with two? but just shrugged my shoulders.
