Filling in a hole

I was working in a warehouse and sweeping the floor.  I used sawdust to see where I had swept so far.  I swept up a huge pile of dirt, mostly hair.  I took the dirt outside the building to empty.  There was a doorway that was below ground level.  The doorway had a large hole around it so it was visible from the surface of the ground.  The hole was a semicircle and lined with large square rocks.  I started filling in the hole by tipping the rocks into the hole.  The rocks were very heave but with a lever I was able to tip them in.  Every rock that went into the hole lined up perfectly so there was no gaps and the rocks laid flat instead of being all jumbled up.  One of the rocks did not go perfectly in place and I had to nudge it in its place just a little bit. 

Going to work

I was going to work in a new place .  I could not get in the driveway because the car in front of me was stopped.  The driver got out and started to talk to me.  He told me this job was like no other I had ever done before because the most important thing was to fill out the time slips properly and to let the managers know where you were at all times.  I drove around him and went into the building.  There was a large glass wall with desks and people working there.  They were all eating sandwiches.  somebody told me they were having lunch because I was coming there to work.  They also told me I was late for lunch so I should just go to work.  I started going down a brick hallway to get to my office but I was not walking , I was still driving.  The hallway slowly curved to the right so I could not see what was in front of me in the hall.

Stinky clothes

I was talking to somebody about working for them.  I was riding my motorcycle and the gas tank was all covered in something that was mud colored but sticky like chewing gum.  I tried to scrape it off but could not get it.  I was dressed in a suit and tie .  The people I was talking to walked away and one of them said to the other that my clothes smelled bad.  I asked them why they did not tell me.

Gas Station

I had to pull in to a gas station to get some gas.  The gas station was at the top of a hill.  While I was filling up the tank my car suddenly accelerated and rolled down the hill.  The only thing that stopped it was the hose from the gas pump.  The hose was pulled tight and bent over so no gas would come through.  I tried to get my car started but it would not keep running because of the bend in the gas hose. Every time I started my car it rolled a little farther down the hill.  The gas line was stretched over somebody's car and they could not move.  They got angry and disconnected the gas line.  The started pumping gas into a small glass jar.  I told them that was my gas they were pumping.  They got even more angry and shot gasoline all over my car and then all over me.  I left in a hurry because they were lighting matches and throwing them at me. 

War Games to decide an argument

I was in a room and having an argument with a woman.  I don't know what the argument was about but we decided to settle it by playing a game.  The game was a war game based on WWII naval battles between the United States and Japan.  We were using small replicas of the ships to play the game.  The woman had all of her ships on a table and I had all my ships on the floor.  One of my planes caught a glimpse of her fleet and I launched all my planes from all my aircraft carriers.  She complained the I was not allowed to do that but I didn't care.

Circus Performers

I was with a group of people who were putting on a performance.  It was a diverse group of white and black men and women of all different ages.  The main part of the show was spiritual singing.  In addition we had planned a circus act, the main one was to walk on a rope suspended about 12 feet in the air.  Someone dared me to walk across the rope and I did walk from one end to the other.  Then the group wanted me to walk back to the other side and I declined.  I looked at the rope and there was somebody riding a bicycle across it and doing other stunts.  The rope was sagging in the middle because of all the weight.  We had to tighten is back up.  The end of the performance came and the ringmaster, who was a black lady and all dressed in a fancy evening gown, called me down to applause for crossing the rope.  I was dressed in a white tuxedo with long tails.  People in the audience came up to me and said how much they enjoyed the performance.  I went outside the building and there were some very tall black men walking towards me.  They were dressed in some sort of uniform that was mainly decorative.  One of the men said I should salute the leader.  He asked me what was going on inside the building and I told him it was a minstrel show.  The men got visibly disturbed at that and I explained to them that there were no end-men and no black-face and it was really more of a variety show.  That seemed to calm then down and they said it was all right then.

Parts for the Machine

I was working in a warehouse and had the task of ordering parts to repair the machinery.  There was one machine in particular that need many repairs.  The parts all came in one shipment.  There were many neon light tubes of different sizes, a cowling that had a motor on the end and a frequency generator.  I went with the technician to replace the parts.  The neon lights fit in a very tight spot and we had to bend the bulbs so they would fit in properly.  The technician said it was lucky the bulbs were flexible.  We didn't need the cowling but needed the motor on the end.  I told the technician that we had to order the whole assembly to get the motor.  He was really surprised about the frequency generator and said he had been trying to get on for months. 

Black snakes

I was walking through somebody's house and walked through a child's bedroom.  There was a wading pool along one wall and there were two black snakes swimming in it.  They had big eyes.  They started to come after me and I left the room.  The people who owned the house told me the snakes were pets and slept with their daughter at night.  They told me I should try being friendly with the snakes.  I laid down in the bed and one of the snakes came and snuggled up next to me.  It rolled over on its back and it had legs.  It curled up like a cat and fell asleep.  I felt it's skin and it was dry and smooth and soft.  The snake was actually very comforting to sleep with.  The people who owned the house said they raised the snakes specially to be friendly like that.  They said the snakes were only friendly for a few years and as they got older they started to bite.  I saw one of the snakes that was a little older and it had grown legs and short brown hair all over.
