Party after work

I was working in an office and cut out from work to go out with a friend from work.  We went to a tall building.  There was a restaurant in the top floor and it was full of people.  We saw at a table with a lot of people I did not know but my friend knew all of them.  A band of bagpipers came marching through.  Everybody linked arms and started swaying back and forth to the music.  It came time to leave and I had to get a taxi. 

Water Skiing

I was at a small lake.  There was a large boat.  It was odd looking because it was shaped like a grandstand.  It had a roof and lots of outboard engines on the back.  This boat was set up to pull skiers.  The boat was selected because of all the power it had.  The boat started out and jumped in the air and back in the water.  There were lots of skiers.  There were also people being pulled along in all manner of boats like canoes and kayaks.  Everywhere I looked people were getting pulled up out of the water and skiing.  There were so many skiers they were all crowded together.  One skier got too close to a kayak and banged his head.  We reached the end of the lake and there were so many boats and skiers there was no room to turn around and go back the opposite direction in the lake.  Everybody just sat there.

Leaky Pipes

I was standing in a basement looking up at some stairs.  All around the stairs were pipes.  The pipes were all different, copper, plastic and iron.  One of the pipes was leaking.  I disconnected the pipe and had a closer look.  The connection was all rotted out and broken.  I noticed a large pipe going up that was leaking a lot.  The water coming out was hot.  It was gushing out and running down the pipe.  The pipe was broken at the bottom too.

Cooking school and buildings

I was attending a school where they taught us to cook.  The building was round and white and shaped like a cake.  Inside was all white with stairway going to different parts of the building.  On a balcony somebody was showing us how to run a blender.  The blender was very special because you could stack containers on it and mix several things at the same time without them getting mixed together.  First they made a dish of blue stuff, then stacked another dish on top and made a batch of red stuff followed by a plate of yellow stuff.

The school was downtown and we were staying in a hotel in the suburbs.  To get back and forth we had to drive a small building.  The building was about six stories high and had four wheels.  It was small on the inside with enough room for four people to sit but was tall.  The building shook and went up on two wheels when we made a turn.  The driver said that when we got to the hotel we would have to the car.  I asked why we didn't drive the car instead of the building but nobody paid any attention to me. 

We had to climb up some stairs to get to the top of the building.  There was a man there who was in charge of the building.  He cautioned us about the stairs because they were not level but leaned downward a little bit and somebody could loose their balance very easily on it.  There was an window and we could look out over the city.  There was a lot of construction going on with cranes on top of buildings.  We watched as one of the cranes lifted a large generator to the top of one of the buildings.  Three men had to duck to avoid getting hit by the generator as it swung by them.  The generator then grew some hands and reached out to position itself in the proper spot.  Behind that we could see the worlds tallest building being built.  We started down the stairs and the building manager warned us again about the cracks in the stairs and to be careful.  I could see the cracks had been filled in to keep a smooth appearance.

We walked outside the building and our car was waiting for us.  It was round like a ball and blue.  It had a clown face for the front of the car.  The face had a big red open mouth smile.  On top of the car was a tall pointy hat that swayed back and forth as the car drove away.

Party in a tent

I was inside a large tent.  The sides were made of screen so that the breeze could blow through.  There were many people there and they were all playing games.  The games they were playing were military miniature games, fantasy miniature games and some that I did not recognize.  The group of people slowly left the tent until there was only myself and a man with his two sons.  The sons were like 12 and 8.  The were dressed in masks, feathers and looked like something you might see from an African village.  The danced with the father in the middle and one of his sons on each side.  The masks got very big so they covered all their bodies and all you could see was the masks and arms and legs sticking out.  

Fish in my lettuce

I was breaking apart lettuce to make salad.  When I pealed the lettuce back there were small silver fish in the lettuce.  They were still alive and like minnows.  I took them out and placed them in a plastic bowl.  They were swimming around and I thought I they would make a good snack later on.

Funeral

I was in a cemetery which had a large circle made of cement in the middle.  There was one woman there dressed in black with a black veil over her face.  She was mourning the death of her child.  I asked her what her child died from and she said it was a infanticideectomy .  I asked what that was and she said the doctors put her child to death to save her life.  Apparently the child was too much for her health to stand.  I thought why didn't she just give the child up and why would doctors do such a thing.  The cement oval we were standing on had a large wall that divided it into three or more parts.  I walked to the other side of the oval and there was a large group of mourners but they were dressed in bright colors and seemed happy.  They were mourning the same person as the woman on the other side except they were angry at her for letting it happen.  They wanted nothing to do with her. 

Computer Center Remodeled

I was at a computer center.  This is a common place in my dreams.  The floor is all white and there are cubicles made with tile and glass.  The room and been all remodeled.  The computers were all on the other side of the other side of the room than where they had been.  I talked to someone and they said the whole room had to be rewired to accommodate the remodel.  There were a few people who knew me and they said they were glad to see me after so long.  I told them I would be coming back more often.  A few people started smoking and the whole room filled up with smoke.  I thought to myself I would not be coming back if it was going to be so smokey all the time.

Old shed

I was looking around in an old shed that belonged to my grandfather.  I opened the back door and there was small bundles of money there.  The money was folded in half and looked like it was made up of 10's and 100 dollar bills.  One of the bundles had a watch and some other jewelery.  The money was laying in piles of straw or hay.  I walked around to the front of the shed and it had a small brick patio with a roof over it.  There was a door in the front also.  I decided the shed would be a nice place to live if it had some paint.  I started to paint the front door and the wood soaked up all the paint.  The wood was very aged and had large cracks in it.  I kept painting and eventually the paint stopped soaking in to the wood.  I was painting the door with white paint but i did not have enough paint so some of the wood showed through.

A really big boat

I was riding in a big boat.  The boat was so big I could look down on all the other boats.  They looked like rowboats compared to this boat.  The boat had two engines.  A normal one plus a large outboards engine.  We got the boat going really fast then started up the outboard and the boat doubled in speed.  Just ahead of the boat was a small island with a rocky shoal.  We had to swerve at the last second to not hit the shoals.

Across the Lake

I was down by the edge of Lake Erie at a marina.  People were working on their boats.  One man was polishing his red sailboat and it was very shiny.  I looked out over the lake and I could see people across the water.  It appeared to be a family of four. They were very large and a little bit fuzzy in appearance.  Also they floated above the horizon like an optical illusion.  They waved to me and I waved back.  I turned to the man polishing his boat and he could see the people across the lake also.  Since the people across the lake waved I knew they could see us too.  I told the man polishing his boat that I had seen all the way across the lake before also.

Out of body dream experience

I was in a white hallway with tiles on the floor.  There were two men with me and each one grabbed me by an arm and we started running.  We started flying very fast.  We flew so fast we crashed through some sort of barrier.  I was immediately aware that I was dreaming.  All around me was soft glimmering globes of light.  I knew I was having an out of body experience.  I decided to fly over to the house of a friend  and see what they were doing but it was too cold outside and it woke me up.

Cardboard in the Warehouse

I was walking through a warehouse.  It was piled high with stack of cardboard.  I had to pick out some pieces for use.  I had to walk through an isle to get what I wanted.  There were pieces of cardboard that were in the shape of numbers and letters.  The had lots of nails sticking through them for the purpose of string lights on so you could have lighted up numbers.  As I was walking down the aisle it started getting lower and I had to duck down.  It also got narrower.  I would have turned around except somebody was coming behind me and they were pushing a large piece of cardboard that blocked my exit.  I finally had to crawl to get out.  When  I got out there was a yellow ladder leading up to a platform that had a tow motor on it.  I started to climb the ladder but it was too narrow for my feet to fit on the rungs so I ended up hanging by my hands.  There was another ladder that was all white.  I did not climb it but somebody else did.  The ladder went up to apparently nowhere.  When the person got to the top the ladder started swaying back and forth and I had to steady it.

White faces

I was looking in a black box.  Inside the black box was a white face that glowed slightly.  I was shouting at the face and telling it to go away.

Cooking on the plane

I was with a group of men and we were flying in a WWII type bomber aircraft.  My job was to cook for the crew.  I had to chop onions very finely because the pilot did not like onions and I had to hide them because the rest of the crew did like onions.

Total darkness

I was with a group of people and we were in a small room.  You could only get to the room by climbing up a ladder through a hole in the floor.  We were doing something that required using electricity.  All of a sudden the room went entirely black.  I could not see anything it was so dark.  Somebody said the owner had been threatening to shut off the electricity if we continued doing whatever it was we were doing.  I suggested maybe we just blew a fuse and the lights would be on shortly.

Young Woman Getting Married

I was in a large living room or kitchen with a lot of people there.  They were all talking to each other.  Sitting at a table was a young woman who was talking to an older man.  They talked for a long time and finally he left.  It was time for all of us to leave but the young woman did not want to.  She kept saying that the older man had asked for her hand.  In fact he had given her a huge diamond ring.  We all tried to convince her that the man was too old for her but she insisted on accepting the proposal.

Soldering wires together

I was working on some electronic equipment.  It had to be modified to fit a different style plug.  The plug was actually two plugs.  To do the modification I had to solder two wires to the connector the plug went on.  The wires were cut to length and were orange.  There was also two yellow wires that had to be connected to the plugs.   I soldered the wires in place and it was a perfect solder job.  The solder was very shiny. 

Let the dog in

I was in a small room like a hotel room.  There was one other person with me.  In the hallway I could here two people arguing and fighting.  There was a dog barking also.  I opened the door and there was a lady outside and she asked if her dog could spend the night in my room.  I answered yes but she would have to take care of my cat.  The dog came in the room.  It was a small whit scruffy dog.  The cat left.  It was a all black cat with shiny fur.
