50¢

Dreamt I was in a gas station/fast food place. Probably a Burger King. My son needed his water refilled so I asked if it'd be alright to fill his cup with water for him and that if I had to, I'd buy something. The lady said I could use it for a few of 50¢. I thought that was reasonable, and started looking through my wallet. I found one quarter but couldn't find another. I spent ages looking to the point they gave up and started ordering for other people. I realized later that I could have used a couple dimes and a nickel or my card. Lol. My husband comes over and I tell him I'm embarrassed I can't find 50¢.. Anyways, suddenly someone in back pipes up and I look over and it's an old co-worker, Stephanie. She tells me that it's okay and to just fill the water. I think that's what she said. She also talks to a manager and I think the manager is mean, so I don't know. Anyways, my husband takes over and I turn around and notice they were serving some dole whip. I call my daughter and tell her to come in. 

Suddenly things shift and I'm not there anymore. I'm in a hotel or hallway of a house or something? I'm there to pick up my daughter. She's there to meet a friend of hers. I wander off to check on my husband who is babysitting some little boy along with our two sons. Suddenly I'm in my dad's porch. The door is wide open, it's night time, my cats are running up to the door to escape, so I run over and I'm about to shut it when the little boy comes in. I kind of scold him and then walk over to my husband who is asleep next to my sons on the couch (that's supposed to turn into a bed but he never turned it into one). I yell at him, wake him up, tell him what happened etc and that he needs to get up and turn the couch into a bed so the little boy can go to sleep. 

... Suddenly I'm back at the hotel and I'm looking for my daughter again. A famous dude from a band (v) is calling me on my phone and I answer it. Somehow I manage to get him to drive and pick up my daughter for me or something even though I'm in the hotel. He said he would get the her and her friend together to meet. I let my daughter know and she's excited. Then I woke up. 

Space Travelers

This one was weird. It's like a space traveler came and picked up several Earthlings (me included. Also husband, maybe my dad? Maybe my sister,? An ex, his wife). I just remember thinking how all the food was different now, so maybe they'd have something similar to cereal that I can actually eat. The cereal is healthy now. No sugars.. full of vitamins. I was worried tho what the milk was. Hoping other choices besides cow but nothing weird. We worked for something and food was all paid for already, so we had a lot of money just waiting to be spent on god knows what. I think we were looking around in what looked like a garage sale to see if we wanted to buy stuff and this is where I noticed my ex and his wife were also in the group. I was worried how my husband would react so I went looking for him. I don't think he really cared, but I can't remember. 

This is all on the tip of the brain so I can't remember much. I kind of remember a girl (mid twenties like) working for bad people and shes in her bedroom, clothes everywhere, bills for colleges in her room, and she was waiting to get picked up by these bad people. She hiked up her skirt to show some underwear a bit and a car stopped. Ended up having her dad in the car. She hid her face. Her dad I don't think was bad buhe didn't want him knowing she was leaving. I think she was wanting to join this space traveling group, too. 

Rich Like Batman

Dreamt I was having sex with a musician, but he looked like my husband. Also I was rich like Bruce Wayne (and I might have had powers like Batman) and had a bunch of fancy things in my house like a transportation device etc.

The Missing Girl

I can't remember a whole lot but that I was maybe at my grandpa's house in Minnesota. I also remember going through my iTunes on my old MacBook and accidentally checking everything so that *everything* would play. Really embarrassing stuff. I remember looking for a young Asian girl or something and finding her in a field and she finds out that her brother died. She faked being missing because she was hoping to get money? I can't remember... And some baby alligator was a pet, but someone had gotten rid of his teeth. Also remember making out with some dude. Probably husband, possibly a mix of him and a celebrity (young jc?). 

The Zombie That Wouldn't Die

I can't understand my handwriting half the time, but I wrote a couples of sentences and the only phrases I understand is that I saw money and that I was going somewhere with my sister and told her I would pay for her to come with - wherever this may be.  I am at our dad's house, maybe waiting for her to get ready, and am looking out the screen door. I see the moon and suddenly it is getting closer and closer. I yell to my boyfriend Devin and BOOM, it hits Earth, but not in a catastrophic way. It is like this humongous ball of broken moon just a few miles away from me. Devin comes in and I tell him what happened and he says, "Didn't you hear?", like it had happened awhile ago. I walk outside (and now it looks nothing like my dad's property -- more like alleyways and sandy/concrete/shelters/brick walls on both sides of windy paths to the shelters). It's sunny in areas and dark in other areas. My sister is following me, and we are winding along through this area. I see a group of people eating at a picnic table. I look around and also see what kind of looks like the black hooded version of the Nameless Ghouls from the band Ghost sitting on this bench - except there are no masks, it's this empty/blank/invisible space. I point over at them to my sister because I'm not gonna lie, the invisible aspect of it was frightening. My sister tells me to quit pointing because I might get their attention and they could hurt me or something. Then this zombie-like person comes at me from behind and tries to suffocate me with his own shirt. I pull his shirt off of me and turn around to suffocate him with his own shirt and he just won't die. (durr..) Then the man-zombie turns into a lady-zombie and she tells me I need to die. I tell her that's not happening. She tries to kill me, so I try to embarrass her instead.

Wizards Fighting

So.. I don't know why, but I dreamt a Harry Potter dream. It seemed like it was the end of the world, and like all end-of-world dreams I have, everyone gathers. Devin and I are driving through town and we see my brother Joran and my mom on the corner of the intersection by Walmart. We park the car and get out and stand next to them, staring up in the sky at two wizards on brooms (my brain decided to imagine Dumbledore and Voldemort) that seem to be fighting to the death. One of them (the bad guy) says he will "see you on the other side" and then disappears. Then the other guy disappears. When the bad wizard spoke, I seemed to understand and open this suitcase I am suddenly holding and grab out a coin. I put the coin in this slot to what looks like an ATM machine or old payphone. Doing this transported me to this other world where these wizards are now fighting.

Come To My Window.

Dreamt I heard Sara Quin singing a little bit of Leo Sayer's You Make Me Feel Like Dancing. Then I was walking down the street and I can hear this music playing in my head and I start strutting down the street. I. DON'T. KNOW. WHY.

Also dreamt I talked with my friend Anna on the phone.

Then I dreamt I was a little girl, maybe 6 years old, and I was alone in this hallway (that was also a thrift store) trying to put on this skirt that was too small. There were people one room away and their voices were getting closer and I was getting worried they would see my underwear. It was a family that walked in. I don't remember if the skirt ever got on, but I remember a little boy that the family brought in had a crush on me.

And also dreamt that I was in my old childhood bedroom and could hear the actress AJ Langer talking outside my bedroom (in the living room) about how she was getting married soon and that she was worried her budget wasn't going to work for it. She wanted to go back to college and she was 26 already. She was worried she wouldn't have a shot at going back to school. She started crying outside and left the house and walked around past my window and when she saw me she stopped and looked at me. I opened the window and she crawled in. I told her that I heard her dilemma and that I was so sorry about everything she was going through. She talked about her budget for a second and I listened intently. When she finished telling me her problem, I gave her a big hug. I had the urge to kiss her but I knew it was all in vain. Instead, I told her she was such a good friend to me. Suddenly my hair falls out in clumps while I hug her and I freak out. I scream a little and this father figure walks in. He's pissed that my hair was cut. Apparently the little boy from the last part of the dream had cut my hair without my knowledge. The father figure yells at me for getting into a situation like this and AJ tells me she's had similar stalker issues before. While this dad is yelling at me, AJ and I are pulling out the loose hair.

Obama Wants To Be Left Alone.

Dreamt I was at my parents' old house, watching the news/weather. The news said that (although it was January) a really big tornado was expected tomorrow.

Then I was in Burnstads (a grocery store in town), and I was paying with chocolate-covered pretzels. The only problem was that while I was shopping for groceries, I was hungry, so I was eating my money. When I got to the register, I found out I only had maybe $3 (three pretzels) and the cashier needed $17 for everything. I asked him to take back everything except for the milk, butter, and another important. (Obviously the economy must still be in good shape in my dreams.. hmm..) The cashier was a nice guy around my age. The lady behind me, a fatter, older blond lady, was impatient and complained that I shouldn't be shopping with so little money. She almost made me cry though, so after the guy rang up the few things I bought, I walked up to the manager's area and praised the cashier that rang me up because he was so nice to me. I also told him about the bitch behind me that was really rude, and he points to this couch that magically appeared in the store and tells me that the bitch is the cashier's cousin. I left the store after that.

Then I dreamt my friend Dana and I were still in high school. It was really dark in the hallway, and we both saw the President walking in front of us. Dana really wanted his autograph, she started running and following him. She disappeared around the corner in the hallway, so I could only hear voices, but I heard him yell, "Who's behind me? NO! Please, I have a wife and kids! Leave me alone!" When I finally got far enough to seeing the two again, I saw her persist and finally he turned around, looked angry, grabbed her hand real hard and pushed her into the wall. I ran over to her and said, "Dana, come on.." and while we were walking away I was convinced I said her name wrong and that I meant to say the name Donna. (Around this dream I had watched the film La Bamba. It's the movie about Ritchie Valens, the guy that sang the song "Donna")

Possession.

Dreamt I was walking up to this abandoned, broken down house. It was a white house with the paint peeling off in places. I was instructed by this man that looked like my late great-uncle Walt to kill this evil little girl (that looks like Tina Majorina when she was in Corrina Corrina) that was haunting this home. To explain: I'm not in reality (in the dream, that is), I am in this other "dream realm", perhaps in the mind of this child. Maybe I took this task and I am inside the girl's subconscious and trying to help her or something that needs to get rid of this evil being. The girl had telekinesis and she was a hellion. When I started in the dream realm, I started at the corner of the street. Next to me were these two dollhouses. One looked just like the house I would enter, the other looked newer but torn up as well. I slowly walked up to the house, I knew evil lurked inside. I climbed slowly into the house through a window and she appeared at once as half-smoke, half-human. I fought with her for awhile and finally she blew up into ashes. I put her ashes into a bag and was told by this man (that was coercing me subconsciously) to go upstairs and look for money. I crept slowly up the stairs, still worried that her spirit lingered in the house. I found wads of $5s, $10s and $20s and I put them in my pocket. Then I keep walking and I notice her bedroom door is open. I don't go in, but I throw her ashes into the bedroom and I start to walk away but I notice in the corner of my eye that the ashes turned back to smoke. The smoke lingers down the bed and underneath. I get scared and start running down the stairs. I get to the window I crawled in from and I start crawling back out. When I get all the way out, she slams her half-smoke/half-human body into the window and it shocks me to the core, so I fall. This would have been fine if the dream realm hadn't transformed where we were at. Suddenly the house was in the air and I fall onto this branch in a tree. All the while as she slammed into the window and I fell onto the branch, I turn into the little girl (physically, not mentally).

Groping.

Dreamt I was on a couch and some dude was sitting next to me. I was wearing this sparkly black sequin dress and he kept putting his hand on my thigh and slowly creeping up. I pushed his hand away and he wouldn't stop. Sooner or later, after a bunch of times trying to get him to stop, I gave up and I ended up having a really good dream. Like, really. good. dream. If you catch my drift. I woke up repulsed, but it felt good in my dream.

Also dreamt I lost my wallet and mentioned to an old classmate about how it happened before (in real life) at a water park, and how it ruined my life. Then the classmate tells me she knew who stole my wallet from long ago. Some tanned bitch.

Twit.

I dreamt I was at this hospital because my sister was sick. My mom finds a hospital room for her for only $30 a month (I know, right? ) and I ask the doctor what it was that was wrong with her. He told me that Sarah has this thing called "S_____ Memphenoma." (I actually remembered that last word!) He said she attained this disease because she came into contact with roadkill. Which was apparently baby chicken, which according to my sister in her dream, a baby chicken means a "twit".


* Okay, sidenote: I know why I dreamt this. Anna and I have been conversing back and forth about this woman that came about a really sudden illness that stiffened her muscles and put her in agony. It reminded me of this thing that my boyfriend's cousin's wife's sister had gone through. She got flu-like symptoms and went to the hospital. By the time she got to the hospital she was out cold and her boyfriend had to carry her in. She went into a coma for a few days. Now she's in a wheelchair and she can't control her body very well anymore. This is the part I'm trying to get to, why this associates with my dream and the other girl. This cousin's wife's sister only did one thing out of the ordinary, and that was pick up a cat that was dead that she was going to bury or something. I think that's what made me think of roadkill.

If I Had A Million Dollars.

Dreamt I won the lottery. I was attaining the money through the Warrens Mall, which was set up like Sportsman's Bar. I paid my bill for drinks with a million dollar bill, which it had my ex boyfriend's father on it for some reason. At the bar, I gave $9,000 to my aunt Erin because of her schoolwork and debt, and $5,000 to mom for her debt. I told my sister Sarah that I wanted to give her money as well, so she said "Why don't you give me 39 cents a day, then?" I don't know why she suggested this, but it was too complicated to get change for my hundreds, so I just gave her $2,000. Then I went to school and in Biology class I saw my friend Dana and I gave her $2,000 as well. The kids in school were nice to me. They waved, said hello. Very different than in real life back then. When I gave Dana her money, I joked that the rest was going towards Tegan & Sara. I was planning to buy them, funnily enough. I was pretty serious, too.


In the last part of the dream, my dream meshed with reality. Outside of my dream, my dogs outside were barking. In my dream, I was walking down this trail and I had to peek around to make sure my dog was still in his fenced-in area. When I woke up, the barking continued from my dream, which made me realize why I was dreaming that.

8/17/10 - KFC Officially Sucks Ass.

I had two dreams on the 17th. Two very long dreams. This is what I get for writing down a dream, rolling over, and going back to sleep, having to write down yet another. I'm splitting them up into two sections. Here's the first one:

Dreamt I was either playing mario kart, or riding around in a kart.

Now I'm outside, at Jelly Stone (which is in Warrens, WI). I'm walking down this sidewalk, at night, though there are outside lamps for seeing, and I notice this guy I used to hang out with coming towards me. He asks me if I'm hungry and if I want KFC. I tell him I'm starving and I'd love some. Then Devin and my sister and a few of her friends show up on the sidewalk and ask what I'm doing. I tell them that I want KFC, and ask if they're hungry, too. They say no, but eventually Devin's jealousy gets the best of him and he decides he wants some as well. Some little asian kid comes over and by now we have a bunch of teens surrounding us, handing this asian some money to count. Afterwards, Devin goes with this old friend of mine to pick up the food (Sarah and her friends decide to go for a walk instead). I'm outside Devin's parents' house and it's night-time still. I'm watching all kinds of people walking up to their house and entering, as if his parent's are having a party or something. His parents assume we're eating at the party, so I don't say anything about the KFC. Soon enough, though, Devin shows up with his whole graduated class and they all bring the food. His dad is pissed at him for bringing food and not eating at their party, but eventually leaves to go back to his home. We eat the KFC on a bunch of these desks that are outside of Devin's parents' house. For some reason, I don't want to eat near anyone, so I choose to eat near these nerdy-looking kids. I choose to sit next to this pint-sized asian boy. He's aggravated that I sit next to him, but everytime he moves a seat away, I strangely move in the seat next to him. After I finish eating and disturbing the asian kid, I look around for Devin and he's sitting, propped up against a cement half-wall, getting awfully close with an old elementary school friend of mine. Their heads are tilted less than an inch apart. I stand up, yell at him from across the room, and he backs away from the girl. I march over, trying to act calm, like I hadn't noticed anything. I do this so that she doesn't run away. When I get up to her, she stands up. I POUNCE. I go to punch her, but I wake up. While waking, I see these little red bumps before opening my eyes. I try rubbing my eyes, but it makes it worse. I now start seeing my own eyes, clear as day, with my eyelids closed. When I open them, the vision is gone.

Food

• Generally speaking, food in dream usually refers to food for thoughts, ideas, new beliefs, etc. They are ideas you take in and digest mentally.

Infidelity

• To dream of infidelity (either by you or someone else), represents issues of abandonment and neglect in a relationship. Or you are feeling emotionally confined and need an outlet for your feelings. Alternatively, a dream of infidelity indicates that you are feeling unsatisfied with your current relationship. You are harboring guilt over a sexual relationship or you are looking for a more erotic sex life.

7/21/10 - Money For Pop.

Sarah and I are going to high school again and we were at our old house looking around for quarters in every room of the house. We're looking for them so that we can buy pop at the cafeteria. For my lunch, I grab Lays potato chips and chocolate chip cookies. I still live with Devin, but Devin went to work. I decided to go to school because I was 'bored' without Devin there. I looked around for my Blessid Union Of Souls CD, but couldn't find it. I wanted it so I could play it on the bus on the way there. I gave up after awhile, I couldn't find it. Still looking for change, I noticed Mom had a pile of it on this entertainment center. She was counting out what she had, but said it was for a pack of cigarettes, so I felt bad asking for some, and she didn't offer me any anyways. Sarah found money but I still had no luck. Eventually I said, "Nevermind, I'm not going to school. I shouldn't be in school anyway." Sarah didn't understand what I meant, so I explained that I was too old, and had graduated years ago. I told her the year I graduated, and she finally remembered.

School

• To dream that you are in school, signifies feelings of inadequacy and childhood insecurities that have never been resolved. It may relate to anxieties about your performance and abilities. If you are still in school and dream about school, then the dream may just be a reflection of your daily life and has no special significance.

Money

• To dream that you have no money, indicates a fear of losing your place in the world. You are lacking the abilities needed to achieve some desired goal. If you are borrowing money in your dream, then it suggests that you are overextending your resources. You are spreading yourself too thin.

7/14/10 - Dead Animals, Dead People.

I've been camping this week.. So I've written in my journal all these dreams I had, and I screwed up the dates on some, so I'll try to get them right. I believe I had two dreams on the fourteenth.


- Niki (sister's old high school friend) died. Fell from ladder that was high up. It was in the shape of an upside down V. Then this guy gave me a guitar, and I accidentally broke a window and a glass. I must have been at this guy's house, because my boyfriend, his sister and their dad were all mad at me for breaking everything. Accidental or not. They made me leave, and wouldn't let me keep the guitar. I cried, grabbed a wad of money and started pulling out 20s, 50s.. I begged the guy to take the money, to pay for the damages. He took the money but everyone was still pissed at me.



- Animals in a field. Pokey-looking boar. Porcupine-like. Dog/fox with ribs sticking out of flesh. I remember Sara Quin was in this dream, too. Also, I had a camera and was taking a picture of a family and a ghost Niki was in it, following around her ex-boyfriend Ben. I remember explaining what happened to her (why she was a ghost) to Sara.

Break

• To dream that you break something, indicates that changes are ahead for you. You need to "break" away from some situation and change the direction that your life is headed in. Alternatively, to break something suggests that you need to take things slower as in "take a break". Or the dream may be a pun on being broke. Are money matters weighing on your mind?

Money

• To give or spend money in your dream, is analogous to giving love. You are looking for love.

Ghost

• To see the ghost of a living relative or friend in your dream, signifies that you are in danger of malice acts by that person.

Bones

• To see bones in your dream, represent the discovery of your personal, family, or cultural secrets. It is also symbolic of your underlying strengths that you have not yet recognized.
