dreams 018 & 019

I went to a Madlib show in a random basement somewhere. I walked up to him after the show and said, "Hi, you're going to be my boyfriend." And he tried to persuade me to come into a bathroom with him. I told him to hold on and keep my wallet as collateral and that I'd be right back! When I returned with my friends, he was gone and all of the gates were closing and we were getting kicked out. I started freaking out because my wallet was gone and I've gotten pretty used to it, and not because I want to be. I went to find my friends, who were Jen and some other people I don't recall, and .. Mrs. Messick .. my high school economics teacher. She was very adamant about helping me get my wallet back. We went to the police but I was scared that if Madlib found out I was accusing him, he'd try to kill me. So I decided to take the search upon myself. My bank called me and asked me about some recent unusual transactions on my account and then told me the name of the person who made them ("Malia" something), when I verified that I was the real owner of the card. With her names, I was able to find the girl. She and her friend had been staying in a hotel room with Madlib that night .. they were younger than me and from Canada. I threatened to make their lives a living hell when I found them and they ended up giving me back my card and returning the money they spent. We were in Florida near the Everglades, staying in house on stilts that was in the water. There were alligator/swamp tours going on around us. Then we took a Greyhound-like bus to their home and along the ride, the girl told me all about her life and how bad it was and I gave her lots of advice and felt kind of sorry for her, but still had fear that she'd do something like what she did to me again.

-----------------------------------------------

I was with a guy named Brent on campus and we were trying to get a cab home. A van picked us up and an old woman was driving. We got into the middle seat and sat back for the ride home. The lady picked up another guy who was kind of chach-y but cute. He sat in the front seat. I was drunkenly fliting with him and Brent was becoming protective of me and trying to lessen my come-ons. The chach guy first pretended to be turned off by me and wasn't having it. But the longer the ride became, the more he got into it. He turned around in his seat to face me and began to fully engage me. The tension between Brent and chach guy was growing and it was uncomfortable. I wanted to flirt with chach guy, but I also didn't want to upset Brent, even though he was just my friend. The lady driving the van picked up some crazy drunk kids and they provided the perfect amount of chaos to allow Brent to lose complete control over trying to keep me from talking to chach guy. Chach guy came into the middle seat with me and we started kissing. Brent saw us and I felt extremely awkward, but we kept kissing anyway. The old lady driving the van directed our attention to random 'landmarks' we were driving by - she was taking us on a totally bizarre route through Columbus and pointing things out along the way. I then realized that instead of getting in a typical taxi cab, we'd gotten into a van that took passengers on a tour of Columbus. We were driving on the freeway, and because the van was so tall (much like a double-decker bus) we could see the roofs of tall buildings downtown that we were driving by. On the tops of them were huge larger-than-life size sculptures of kids in action on playgrounds. I said, "I've lived in Columbus for 21 years and I've never even seen these before!" and was really excited. Chach guy was an out-of-state OSU student and was excited to see the 'landmarks', too. We dropped off the crazy kids. After that, we were driving through very dark roads in Hilliard near Hyde Park. I secretly hoped that we'd be dropping off Brent/Larry first (Brent turned into this guy Larry - it wasn't a noticeable change in the dream, but when I woke up I realized that in the latter part of the dream, Brent was Larry) so that chach guy and I could have some more fun. He told me that he wanted me to spend the night with him, but I couldn't decide I should or not, but felt it was a bad idea. We were driving towards Galloway near by old house when I spotted Brent/Larry's house and then all of a sudden there was a small kid in the van and he was Brent/Larry's neighbor. We dropped them off. I asked chach guy where we lived because I figured he lived on campus, which we were very far away from. He was embarassed to tell me that he still lived at home and I told him not to worry about it because I didn't move out of my parent's house until the summer before my junior year of college. The tour-guide/cab-driver lady dropped us off at chach guy's parents' house and we ended up having a sleepover with his little sister and her tweeny-bopper friends.

dream 017

I was - and I remember this with visual clarity - getting breast implants, and I was awake. The doctor cut off the front of my boobs, grabbed out the existing muscle and fat (which left the skin to sag and fold over.) He tried out a variety of different sized clumps of muscle and fat to implant and I was worried because he was being so indecisive - I didn't want my wounds just sitting open, probably getting infected. I don't remember ever actually sealing the implants in my body.

My gay friend told me he was getting married, and as we chatted, we happened upon a church in which a wedding between people we went to high school with was in procession.

dream 016

i was dating caleb followill of kings of leon.

i was attending a high school reunion for the class of, like, 2001 at darby. people who had turned out completely normal were transformed back into their drug-doing high school selves and there was a clan of former students who raced monster trucks. the racing in the parking lot was such an epidemic that the school had created an impound lot that automatically transported the racing vehicle into the lot and compacted it.

celebrities in my dreamz

the following people showed up in my dream two nights ago:
britney spears (we were best friends and i was her assistant)
ashton kutcher

dream 015

An unpopular girl from high school invited everyone from Darby to go to her house way out in the country for a weekend of camping, swimming and fun. Surprisingly, everyone showed up. There was tons of alcohol and so many things to do. I ran into a bunch of old faces from Hilliard and chatted with them throughout different parts of the dream. I was supposed to meet up with Ian there, but then I saw him with a girl and he gave me an "oops, sorry..?!" kind of look. I was drinking gin & tonics with lime (and for the record, in reality I absolutely HATE gin) and I kept leaving them everywhere! I'd have one made for me, walk around, set it down, try to find it with no success and repeat the process all over again. This happened at least 5 times in the dream. A few times, I stole unattended drinks.

Later in the dream, I was in very large house. I was carrying around a dildo, and my family were at the house, so I kept trying to hide it anytime anyone came around. I dropped it a few times and luckily no one noticed it. I left it in the bathroom once, and I knew someone had gone in there because other items had been moved around. I was certain someone had seen it, but no one confessed or confronted me about it (which was my worst nightmare.)

My cousin Charlotte and I were in the basement of the house, sorting through a bunch of junk down there. The basement, in proportion with the scale of the house, was the size of a warehouse. It was completely filled with random things all over the place. We had found some Christmas decorations and, aligned with reality, it was near Christmas so we decided to bring them upstairs. Charlotte had mentioned something to me about how there were some really old chocolates and not to eat them. Time elapsed and we'd been handling more decorations and such, and as I entered the kitchen I happened upon a bowl of candies. There was an Andes mint in the bowl, which reminded me of Charlotte & her family's old house in Golfview Woods because her mom always put Andes mints in a candy dish in their living room during the holidays. I couldn't resist, and when I chomped into it, it tasted like....like the worst taste ever to enter ones palate. I had totally forgotten her warning not to eat the candy, not realizing that the candy dish I'd found was the one found earlier in the basement and deemed to be 7 or more years old.

Alone, I headed to the basement again, dildo still in hand and came to an area that was arranged pretty neatly for the most part, but its contents were an array of carnival prizes and props (ie; glass bottles, balloons, darts, huge stuffed animals, fish bowls) and party store supplies (erasers, temporary tattoos, pencils, goody bags, party hats, etc.) I also found a box full of memorabilia from my elementary and middle school years. Opening it, I found Nsync concert tickets from the concert I went to in seventh grade. Instantaneously, Justin Timberlake showed up. We chuckled together over the items (there were posters and concert tees and programs, too) and he offered to help me clean up the basement.

dream 014

i forgot... sometime last week i had a dream that my mom left my dad and married bobby flay, and i completely withdrew from everyone. i wouldn't talk to anyone and i couldn't stop crying for the rest of my dream. ...i guess this is an ongoing pattern in my dreams - the whole crying thing. jeeeeezzzz.

dream 013

jenna told me she had something to tell me. i left her a facebook comment saying something about "you're toooootally going to tell me you're pregnant, right? HAHAHAH, YEAH! RIGHT!!!" in a totally joking manner. she invited me to go out for dinner, and i bought a bottle of wine and made my way to the restaurant. when i got there, her immediate family was there, and before i even sat down she said, "kate....i'm pregnant!" i burst into tears, crying hysterically. then rodney (my cousin lacey's son henry's father) walked into the restaurant and sat down at our table. i knew immediately that that meant that he was the father, and she confirmed it by nodding at me when i gave her a puzzled look. i was happy for her that she was actually pregnant, but i was furious that she'd slept with him and was going to have a baby with the same guy who made henry. i didn't stop crying for the rest of the dream.

dream 012 (even though i've had a million i haven't documented)

i was going to the thornapple area and was by the golf course.  it was raining (which i suspect was a relevant part of the dream because i was sleeping in reality with my window open and it was pouring rain outside and i could hear it.)  the street had flooded so i couldn't drive through (i wasn't even in a car, though, but i knew i couldn't drive through it.)  i finally got to where i was going and was hanging out with marlie morgan & stephanie snyder.  stephanie was pregnant and we were at her baby shower.  there were pictures of myself and hello kitty all over the refrigerator, and some with shawna harrington.  shawna's mom came to me and said "recognize the theme!?!"  weird.  i left the shower for a little bit and went over to sarah wendel's house.  she and her mom were playing with a dog that sarah and i shared.  i took a bunch of pictures and polaroids of the dog, then went back to stephanie's baby shower.  i remember seeing stephanie's dad, who was the human version of kyle from south park's dad (and until last night, i had no idea who that character was or what he looked like because i don't watch south park... but my tv was on comedy central in the background and i watched the new episode which was a parody of the election and kyle's dad was a rabid obama supporter...haha..)  while at the shower, i was suddenly pregnant.  it was agreed that when i had the baby, abbey and i had to share it.  i didn't go through any kind of birthing, but the baby came to be, and abbey kept trying to take it away from me and not let me anywhere near it.  i was too busy trying to figure out how to work abbey's camera (which was a canon powershot sd1100 ... and of course i have dreams in which the electronics are distinctly identifiable because i sell cameras for a living, haha) .. she took my baby away and also grabbed the camera out of my hands because she wanted everything to herself.  i was furious.

at one point during the dream, i was in a house that was set up like my across-the-street neighbors' from childhood.  the front door lead immediately downstairs or up.  i don't know who's house it was or why i was there or who any of the people there were.  an old light-skinned black woman came to the front door to pick up something she had ordered.  i don't know what she had ordered, but i wondered why the owner of the house had made whatever it was and allowed people to come pick it up instead of delivering it to them.  the woman had a really ugly, stupid dog with her and it kept biting me.  when it bit me, it's mouth suctioned to my leg - and this is a gross description, i know, but in the dream it was the visual i kept getting - much the way a vagina suctions a penis inward.  i tried to kick the dog off of me but it kept sucking and biting me!
