Bridesmaids and Farm Raised Kittens

This dream was a little scatterbrained and I'm a little out of practice with blogging them but maybe I'll start this back up :)

First of all, my hair was this length and then it continued down to my butt. Other than that, my dream was about my friend Bre's wedding. She was having her bridesmaids try out for their spots on a stage and there were many rounds.. I ended up making the cut along with three others. During the wedding Matt was standing next to me and was just giving his own commentary through the ceremony and I kept telling him to be quiet which just made him mad at me.. Then when the wedding was over and we all walked to the parking lot one of the girls that did not make the cut starting shooting a gun towards the crowd. About that time one of my friend's from high school little brother picked me up in a cop car and shuttle me out of town. Ends up we were in Lucas and when we were trying to escape all of the students from that school were lined up on the sidewalk and waving at the car and I was freaking out because I didn't want them to see me and give away my location. So the little brother took me to this house where random people in their 60's came and went and they enjoyed throwing knives and darts. And the straw that broke my dream land's back was when they were getting a sandwich ready for me and told me to go ahead pick out a kitten, they raise them in the back.. they're delicious on a sandwich... and I woke up.

Waterfalls and Wild Women

Last night:

Matt came home with me for the weekend and we were taking the long way on this one road and it was really sketch, like sometimes there would be huge chunks of the road missing but we were able to drive anyway. I looked over and saw 'Gorman Nature Center' and a waterfall so we got out and grabbed an interview and started down the river. It wasn't a huge waterfall at all but I managed to jump out of the tube and out run the splashing water but Matt got completely soaked! I think we were going out to eat or something.. so that was unfortunate. While he was in the bathroom I ran into my freshman homecoming date, Zach, with his parents (my former librarian and volleyball coach) who seemed to be very unhappy with me. With Matt gone for the moment they tried to force me to marry Zach. That was weird. When Matt came back we went on our way. We stopped by this mall that was also like WalMart and were walking around.. Ran into Dr. King who wanted to make a package out of me playing this game at the bar there where you shoot pool balls at a target. I was competing with another girl.. he paid $5 for me to pay, $20 for him and his assistant to watch and film, and a $1 tip. I got first turn and could pick wherever I wanted to shoot from.. I believe I missed a lot.. Not sure.. The next thing I know I was on the second story of this place WHICH HAD NO RAILINGS!!! Which terrifies me. But I had to go to the bathroom and there was this reality show "so you think you can be a horror movie superstar' or something (i think there really is a show like that) but these girls were seriously crazy. and mean. The one got separated from the group because she was so bad and she was sitting at a desk in the hallway i had to walk down. On my way back out as i got to the door i ventured to say "I really like that you tipped your nails with blue." She paused for a moment and said "Your friends with Nathan Johnson.. Right." And I said yes, which cleared me for being a good person and she kinda liked me all because Nathan was a stand up guy. And then it went back to the river scene.. Then we were back at my house.. Yep... those were the deets I could remember. It's about time I had a dream I remembered!!

I can't tell you much about this dream.. there was just so much going on. It is harder for me to remember the really random ones because one major thing will stick out and everything else kinda fades with waking but I will tell you what I did remember..
I was treading water with a duck that was my friend.. and then three bad ducks came along and we knew they were going to try to kill us.. Two of the bad ducks joined forces, went under the water.. intertwined their necks and started spinning like an auger really fast towards the surface in order to spear my friend duck from underneath. The flew out of the water, piercing my beloved duck :( (reference shark week and how sharks attack from below.. it was much like this.) So the leader of the bad ducks came towards me and I grabbed its feet and turned it upside down and held it's body under the water with my feet. I used this as both a means of transportation as well as suffocation. I was somehow using this duck as a sort of water scooter to get me to this house where I was going to meet and talk about all of these animal issues. But at the same time, it had to die.
I don't understand what this means.

Giant fish!

Okay, after reflecting on my dream and sitting down to write about it I think I know why it happened. Last night I climbed up into my bed and noticed that Umfi (my fish) left his light (a DiscoveryKids lamp thing that has rotating fish.. aka Umfi's 'friends') on.. So I had to climb back down and in that process almost killed myself when I hit my roommates chair.. and then when I reached the light my books shifted which shot this little organizer off of the side of my desk.. it was just a lot of drama within about 15 seconds. Anyway.. to my dream.
Basically I had two glass fish bowls much like Umfi's, and Umfi was in one and then there was an orange fish and another fish in the other. They were more like children and becoming very high maintenance and unruly. The water in both of the bowls kept rising and you know how dangerous that is because they can jump out! Well the orange fish in the one bowl kept grabbing the top of Umfi's with its mouth and then before I knew it the orange fish was in the same bowl as Umf. And this concerned me because Umfundisi is a Beta and we all know they kill things. Well in the mean time these fish are growing.... a lot. So I took them down stairs to try to find bigger containers to keep them in and while I was in the other room I heard glass breaking and I ran in the room to find both bowls turned over and broken on the floor! Fish out of water! So I grabbed them, and they were probably a foot long at this point and through them in the sink and turned the water on but it wasn't helping because the drain was still open and I was trying to pump their little chests but it wasn't helping.. Eventually I plugged the drain though and the water filled up and they could breathe.. Eventually they got into huge tanks and Umfi was probably 5 feet long and a giant but he was the most beautiful fish you had ever seen. Theee end. :)

A New Year Has Begun..

I know it has been a while since I've updated this blog, but don't think I haven't been dreaming! Now that school is back in session I believe I'll try to start recording my dreams again. Enjoy!

Two nights ago the main thing I remember from my dream was stepping on a squid and having my friend, Jeff, try to pull it off and then go into this long discussion about why I am terrified of salt water sea animals, not including whales and dolphins, but everything else in salt water I hate. At another point I was younger and there were a lot of children at my house and we were playing a game called 'Wooney" which one person puts a circular piece of cardboard in their mouth and say words that rhyme with 'wooney' and your partner tries to guess them. You can also attempt to put all of the cardboard in your mouth without using your hands. good luck.

Last was more intense. There was a living room with a hallway attached to it that had bathroom stalls. My mother and I were in the living room and my dad was in one of the stalls. Then a priest walks in and gives me a look and at that moment I know that he has murdered someone and now he thinks i know. So he goes in a stall. I gather my mom and dad up quietly, even though my dad was taking forever because "I have to grab some chapstick" and "Where's my billfold?" At this point I am freaking out because the window of opportunity to escape is slim! Eventually we are all out of the door and right as it is about to close that priest jumps out of the stall and I know that he now wants to kill me because he knows I know. So i don't know how high this building is but we run down a ridiculous amount of stairs and then we start snaking through pews. It is here that my dad decides he can't go any further but it doesn't matter because the crazy priest only wants me. For a moment we sit down with my grandmother and a bunch of nuns to try to work out our differences but the nuns wouldn't believe me and my grandma thought i was being rude.. so the fleeing continued. Eventually I came across a little girl that tried to help me find this man who was the youth pastor and would help me. we searched and searched and eventually settled into this long closet with a slanted ceiling where all of the children play and I sat in the corner and the little girl was offering me books to read and the guy was there. That is all. Crazy thing is that I have had a dream similar to this before. hmmm.

too long

I realize that i am not being fair by not blogging about my dreams. I apologize. So.. i had one good one a few weeks ago and a crazy one last night. So I shall recap chronologically.

Alright so I have this friend that is in a motorized wheelchair. We got out of class and she asked me to push her to the elevator and so I obliged. I saw the stair symbol sign thing down the hall so I wen to the door on the opposite wall assuming it was the elevator... The doors opened from the center much like elevator doors, sliding... and the girl just hopped out into the newly revealed space BUT instead of it being the elevator it was the stairs and she fell down them all!! It was horrible to witness. Even in a dream world. Tragic. She was fine though. But the rest of the dream was kinda awkward because I was still pushing her around tryin to find that stupid elevator and she is in pain because i just let her fall down a flight of stairs...

And then last night.... A few different things were going on.

I was pregnant which is a terrifying nightmare in and of itself.

I was trying to find this lost little boy in the middle of the night near Smart Road (it's a few roads away from my house. Very in the middle of nowhere/woodsish with a river and bridge). But then at times the road became a hallway and every door I opened was a different sort of culture of people. The most memorable was a theater setting of hardcore biker guys. I described the boy and asked if they had seen them. They all looked angry.. so I shuffled out of the room but told them if they wanted to help they could meet me outside! Two people joined me. I was going to go to Ralph's and borrow a horse to make my search more efficient but I never got that far. Did I mention it was like pitch dark outside? But this creepy man kept following me and I got to the bridge and he caught up with me and was getting uncomfortably close. I was getting the rape/murder vibe from him. I was legit getting anxious in real life and woke myself up. The end.

blogging

So last night in my dream... I stumbled across Russ's blog where I started reading about how he found out this girl he had worked with liked him and how excited he was because she was really pretty and he thought she was fun to be around and was very interested. He met her making a movie trailer for field production (i was in his group)... her name is aimee (my roommate!).

aww well how cute. in my used to be awesome dream world where russ likes me.. he now likes my roommate. spectacular.
