What was your last dream about?

Two longish dreams that had a lot of things that were not particularly memorable just maybe some of the settings. First dream I was at a few family restaurants that had dark brown or black tables and the setting was a little dark like the Craker Barrel chain at least on the insde. The main subject of the dream seemed to be I was checking out 2 or 3 dozen pairs of eyeglasses. Trying each pair on and if it fit OK and the lenses were clear and clean I put them aside to keep, if they didn't fit or were smudged, dmaaged or whatnot I put them in another place to get rid of. While I was trying on one pair my sister or someone else mentioned that they looked good on me. I think that pair had some smudging or dirt I had to clean off. I don't know if I put that pair in the to keep section or not.

The next dream it seemed to be winter time and the setting was a neighborhood that was like a large shopping mall. I was standing at one of the "intersections" of the mall like hall? There were some benches and maybe tables around. I was looking at myi wallet as I had just gotten some change from a transaction someplace one of the bills was a medium red color slightly faded maybe a shade of pink, with a portrait of a man with dark or black hair and full beard. He looked like a stereotipical Russian. I didn't recognize who it was and made a mental note to look it up. The denomination of the bill was $500. I follweed some kid who was a neighbor of mine in the dream and he was talking about whatever video game or stereo set up he had and he was borrowing a CD or DVD player of mine that he needed to borrow a little while longer. He offered to give me some kind of payment or collateral in the form of CDs/DVDs of "Scooby Doo" which in the dream was some artist that used the Scooby Doo cartoon characters on the discs artwork. I declined saying I wasn't familiar with his stuff or wasn't interested in it. I was walking along some walkway that had some ice and snow that I was breaking up with my feet. I dom't recall what type of footwear I had on. Just wandernig around lost in thought. I realized that I needed to start heading back home. Another part of the dream when the neighbor kid went away there was a group of kids maybe 3, who started mocking me and being totally obnoxious. I chased them a little let them run off and was careful to avoid making threats to them. I said something about doing something but I stopped before saying what I would do or that it was something that shouldn't be done.

I was with my brothers in a room that had some long tables set up, I don't think there were any chairs. We were looking at data cards that were the old style punch cards, I think there were different colors not just the standard manila color. One card I looked at had data from this year giving the average grade average for kids in public school and it was a very low score. My oldest brother had some cards from the 1960s up to 1974 and it was a very repectible number, I had some early 1980s cards that were a little lower than the '60s-70s but nowhere nere as low as the card for the current year (I think that one was a shade of medium blue).

In a different dream, I noticed that the tip of my right thumb had been cut off from the bottom of the thumbnail to a little above the first knuckle. A single bone was sticking a little bit out of the flesh, every thing was clean cut like the side of a BBQ spare rib. It didn't hurt and wasn't bleeding but it looked really weird. I do recall thinking about how I would explain it to my doctor whenever my next appoint would be. I also began to wonder if I was dreaming or if my thumb really had been cut off. I don't think it was related to this next dream but it might have been.

I was at some kind of big High School reunion lawn party at some kind of large country club, school or huge plantation sized home. There was a stone wall and huge lawn stretching out. People were milling about I thnk most were standnig but some people were laying on blankets or perhaps sitting in chairs. It was like a scene at the beach except on grass and people were in regular clothes not swimwear. I didn't recognize most of them even though they were supposed to be from my class and I at least recognize most of the kids in my class from the yearbook if I didn't know them. There was on guy who I guess was in a lounge chair who said that he knew what I was up to. I don't recall what his exact words were but it was in a joking light hearted way not an accusatory way. I think he was supposed to be someone I knew from school but it wasn't clear in the dream. Next I was milling about and had a plastic water bottle in my hand that I dropped and it landed at the feet of a couple of people on my right. I picked it up and it spilled some. On my left was someone who I guess was supposed to be a transwoman, I'm not sure if it was supposed to be a male that I had known in real life or a very unpleasant looking female I had known. I didn't know them in the dream. They had dark to black hair with a sort of classical Greco-Roman look going on with a thin sharp nose. They were wearing a light pink dress frilly like a ballerina's dress, but I don't think it was a ballerina dress. They said something I think but I don't recall whaat and I don't think their voice clearly defined their gender but I also don't recall what their voice sounded like.

Had another play dream. I don't know what show was being performed or my role in it. The space being used was not a theatre. I was offstage in a room that had a filing cabinet. I was looking at one of the dreawers and found a file on me that had a single 8x10 black and white photo of a cast of kids in kindergarten and I was in the lower right corner of the picture, my eyes were bulging real big like a cross between Marty Feldman and a muppet. They weren't like those Japanese Manga characters more muppet like and real looking. I started to put the picture back in the cabinet drawer and thought I should get a copy of it for myself and post it to social media. I later found 3 or 4 more black and white pitures of me from Kindergarten plays, one of them I was in a costume that looked like it was supposed to be a turkey (but not fat or turkey shaped). The costume looked like it was put together with sheets of construction paper or patchwork style thing. I think another one I was in a trench coat and fedora as a detective or reporter.

I was working at a toy store apparently it was my first day and the store was huge. I had some kind of pole that was folded or bent down in 4 sections. I guess I was looking to return it to its proper shelf. Down one aisle there were several of the store employees just hanging around, at the end of the aisle was a dead end and there were a couple of managers talking. I tried listening to what they were saying because I thought they were talking about me. I got the impression that the store was part of a chain and it was common to move employees around from store to store.

zi eill try to do justice to these dreams. I recall 4 scenes I don't know if any were connected, maybe the last 2 possibly 3 were. I will describe them in the order I think they occured in.

1) I was in a meeting with some woman. My recollection of this dream is pretty vague. Other than it being a work meeting I don't know what it was about, or even what the business/company was supp9osed to be. My real job maybe? We were sitting at a long white table in a meeting room with normal florescent lighting. Anyway she was talking about whatever and I realized that instead of being at the meeting I should be covering for a co-worker that was going to be out. In reality there are actually 2 co-workers that will be out, but one is scheduled to come in later. Then one of my buddies from High School was in the meeting apparently he was a guest of the company was was scheduling some sort of visit for later. The woman began giving him some sort of orientation brief. I don't recall much else.

2) This part was a little vague. I was in a neighbrhood that I think was supposed to be the one I grew up in but it wasn't anything like the real neighbrhood I grew up in. It was late afternoon and a little before dusk. There was a group of teen boys that were being bullied and chased by some college aged boys. The group of boys split up into pairs and each pair went into separate houses. I didn't follow any of them. Besides I didn't have access to any of the homes. I'm not sure but I think this might have lead to the next scene, but maybe not.

3) This one is THE COOLEST dream of the evening. I was in a nice suburban neighborhood nice sunny day sometime afternoon. I was standing in the street by a car? or maybe one of those rail car construction waste bins? High up in the sky I saw a jet plane fllying by that I would describe as being sort of binocular shaped rather than "square". Sort of similar to the Earth starfighters on Buck Rogers with some influence from Star Wars' Millennium Falcon. Then there was a second similar plane flying the other direction. Next the two planes are much closer. One of them now looks like the main part of an Apollo Lunar Lander with a horizontal grill in the front, the other one now much smaller than the other "connects" with the other to become the antenna of the other one. The now spaceship is right in front of me hovering above the construction bin, it is slightly smaller than the Apollo Landers but not by much. The "grill" is now a large flat screen all blue. I am in awe at this "alien" UFO. A little while later it appears that it is about to fly away but pauses I say "Hi" "Hello" there seems to be an interested reaction, probably by the oilot(s) inside. There is no communication but I think I am being studied and scanned. From my left and slightoly behind a woman appears wearing a puffy padded jacket that is blue or green she walks behind me, I turn to say something to her and she is gone. I turn back to the "UFO" and now it is gone.

4) Next and this is right after the part before. I am in some winter lodge. The decor is dark wood like a ski lodge with soft lighting similar to candle light, but with electric lighting. I am next to an open window overlooking the parking lot/driveway that is now a swimming pool. My brother is "swimming" but then he is walking. We are sitting at a table, I haven't moved but my brother is now sitting in front of me, his wife is sitting next to him across from my left. My brother says something that includes mentioning that "these dates are special to me, Jan 9 and Sep 22". I have no idea if those dates are significant at all in real life. That is all I recall.

I will try to do this dream some jusice in the written form.

It started off I was watching the opening credits to some show like Xena: Warrior Princess as if I was just outside of the scene not watching on a screen. I didn't see what was supposed to be the first few scenes of the opening credits I just knew that was the show the scene I was seeing was from. I had a thought of "Oh yeah I remember this season". The scene that I saw that was starting at first was in animated form, the characters were designed to look like real-life but were still a little caricature like, while the sceen was unfolding it shifted from me seeing the scene in the credits to me being in the scenee and the animated caricatures morphing into reality. The scene starts at the door of the bullpen office of some screne writers for the show in modern clothing )not the series fantasy clothes) in the fashion of early 1980s maybe late 1970s. A female writer with sandy brown hair (she was supposed to be Renee O'Conner like) is talking with series actor Bruce Campbell, Bruce has a neatly trimmed full beard with a late 70s hair style looking like Michael Douglas or a bearded Richard Dreyfuss from his Jaws days. They are in the doorway to the room, the door is one that has frosted glass on it like in the old filmo noir fims of private detectives offices. They are talking about the next season and Bruce is campaigning for his character to appear more often. The lady writer says something to me and a few others in the halway to basicaly go away we can't come in and they shut the door. To my left there is a similar room same kind of door and I can see through the walls of the room. There are about half a dozen actors from the show that play reoccuring characters that will not be in the next season. they are having a sort of goodbye party. One of the actresses a cute blonde that looks sort of like a prettier Ellen Muth (Dead Like Me TV series). She leaves the room and starts talking with me we walk to the elevators. To the left of the elevators is a desk against the wall and an office chair I sit in the chair. The cute girl sits behind me on the desk and puts her leg over my shoulder, I reach back and pat her foot in acknowledgment and acceptance of her motion. There is another womona standing by the desk and talking to us with a Rachel Maddow hair style. I forget what else was said and the dream ended there.

Went to bed real early last night.

First bit I vaguely recall. I was in a grocery store? I was with a woman that was a coworker or an acaintance. I wasn't buying anything but she was and there was someone else I knew that was checking out. After her transaction a group of about 6 people, whom we supposedly knew exited the store, including the cashier who waw now some sort of manager or leader of this small group of people. We walked along the middle grassy island of some busy roadway. We were headed away from where I wanted to go and on the wrong route for me. As the group sped up so I turned to go the way I wanted. Next I am taking a bus to get to th subway so I can get to wherever my car was parked. The bus was in a Chinatown type section of the city where all the store fronts were 10-15 feet wide and the sstores were deep. There was a Subway sub shop that had a row of tables (maybe 2?) where I saw some guy I sort of recognized in the dreamworld. I have no idea who he was. Next I am talking to my brother about going home and the route I will be taking and realizing I had no idea where my car was parked. I think there was some scene with me driving somewhere but I'm not sure what happened.

Later in another dream that was after a short period of being awake. I was driving a route that I had supposedly drivin with some friends at sometime earlier, they were ahead of me and I was following part of the drive I thought I knew. I was on a section of parking lots that were parallel to the street/highway I was supposed to be on. My speed was too fast to make the first turn I was supposed to use, but I had other opportunities. I managed to make the last one and still stay on route. I knew there was some exit I was supposed to take, but whatever it was I had forgotten and the little note that I had written the directions down on was not with me. A little while later I see some protestors blocking the road ahead. They were in some holes in the road one of them would be showing their head and shoulders and in another hole 3 or 4 feet away another was showing just there legs and feet, making it appear that the two were the "same" person. There were about 6 protestors some of them were dressed like clowns. I had to break hard to be able to stop before getting to them and have room to make the left turn away from them. I was too close to where they were so I had to back up some, while I was doing that the protestors pretended that I had hit one of them while backing up. A short protestoer came to my door and tried to open it but couldn't. I tried to roll down myh windo but it wasn't lowering. I was trying to tell these idiots "I don't believe you" and that I didn't hit any of them. The dream ended there.

I was at some kind of "work" event some employee meeting or picknic I don't know what it was about. The "company" and type of work they did was not related to my real life job(s). Next I think might have been a continuation of that other bit I was in a large school like gym it was about the size of 4 football feilds in total area. I was with a group of people a couple of which were some schoolmates I had in High School. I was sitting in a folding chair with the group and the leader organizaer was handing out swords/light sabers to everyone I didn't want to do whatever was being done, but the leader called my name and I took the last sword/rod. Then there was some kind of game or trivia contest while using the swords. That was it.

WOW. I had a long super adventure with comedy mixed in dream that was sooo filled with detail and just events I can't begin to describe any one scene without forgetting most everything else. I think it began as a family trip that also involved a wedding on the day before we were to leave wherever it was we were and the rental car got hit and a few things may have been stolen and the events piled on. Somewhere in there were some school friends of mine high school or college or both. Some of the missing things I had put into my car before the rental was hit. I had my car because it was a replacement rental for the rental car. My sister told the investigating police that we the family were seeking all charges in relation to the accident. While waiting to talk to the investigators I tried to make a list of the things that were missing and couldn't remember all of them and was waiting to get one of the investigators to give me a copy of the inventory to match up with my list. While I was waiting for the inventory list I got bored and went on a drive down the street got lost and was stopped just past the Canadian border. When did I enter Canada? And when did they drive on the left? The Canadian official let me go since my adventure was getting weirder and weirder I was trying to get directions back to the hotel, but was having problems and getting stressed about it. 3 women who were sisters (one of them a young 30something Jamie Lee Curtis) started to help me with the directions, they then left, I suspected them of being thieving prostitutes and then one of them returned with some of her family. There was something about a newlywed couple getting killed. I was super stressed about trying to get directions back home and failing. The directions were directing me to other places I didn't want to go to so I had to get new directions. Somewhere just before realizing I was in Canada a strange topless woman approached me while the drivers window was down. I didn't listen to anything she was saying or selling. Yes all of this was happening in a quick BAM BAM BAM way. That is what I remember.
