Foundation

I was in a house with a garage underneath that you could access from either the front or the back of the home so it was like the house had an underground drive-thru.  In the garage, there were two black cats the size of martens who were fighting. It made me think of how Merlin saw dragons fighting under the foundation of King Arthur's castle in progress. (I read this in Mary Stewart's Merlin Trilogy) The fighting causes the structure to constantly fall down.  I worried about the house until I woke up.  

I dreampt I invented a filter for car windows that worked as a photo filter.  The filter used a search tool to look for images from the same year the car was made.  If you sat in the car the filter would put a glamor on you to update your appearance to a particular year so your clothes, hair, and makeup were historically accurate. For some reason, I didn't sell the technology but I just applied it to more and more vintage cars that I kept in my driveway.

No Bite

I dreamt a man was letting his huge dog bark and snap at me.  I was crying and telling the man to get his dog and I sort of fell back into my car and locked the door from there. I drove off and it was suddenly night time and I was driving on a boardwalk.  I kept narrowly missing obstacles and a few I drove through but they had no effect on the car.  I did break off the rear windshield wiper. 

I dreamt I had a wall of climbing plants in my house on the second floor but there were holes in the floor so that the plants could come up from the basement.  I could tell that many of the plants had been cut off just at the baseboard and would probably die soon. 

I dreampt I was at a folk concert where the lead singer did the moonwalk across the stage and then stopped the music so he could tell us a ghost story.  I was in the audience eating a slice of white cheddar cheese. 

I dreamt we lived in the desert and I went outside because a little boy and his dog were on our property. They had come to see a pack of Black Leopards. When I went out I met an African Lion who didn’t bite me but was very aggressive and kept circling me and throwing me again/into the bushes and trees.

I dreamt my grandfather took me to meet André René Roussimoff aka Andre the Giant. *Note that both my grandfather and Andre dead.


I dreamt my sunroof cracked and my car filled with snow

I dreamt I was waiting to pay for a Little Debbie peanut butter cream pie and I was going to use coins because it was only 79 cents.

I was having the wildest dream about someone trapped in a cursed suit of armor. It was scary but very engrossing.

I dreampt I bought a house with a barn in the back and when I went to clean it out I found two vehicles.  I was told I could sell them both and I was very excited about all the money I was going to get. 

I dreamt I bought bourbon with my meal at McDonalds.

I dreamt I was at a dept store and I was trying to find Hanukkah books to read in storytime.

Nick Nacks

December 10, 2017

I was traveling with a friend by car and we were only taking the backroads.  We saw a really bike stop that was all fancy and modern.  There was a paved trail and a mounting biking trail.  The stop had a bathroom and a cantina or small general store with parts and food.  I promised we would come back but we kept driving through the woods.  Later we stopped at a tavern and I had to make dinner.  I had a bag of food and we worked out how much to make because we couldn't take the leftovers.  I think made something with beef and mushrooms.  I had everything on a plate and then had to go scouting for a skillet or pot.  Oddly the plate was older like pewter and sort of oblong and not round like most plates you see today.   I remember going back to driving it was all country roads.

I was at a house and I needed to use the restroom but the commode was in the master bedroom and there was someone in the room at the end of the hall and they could see me if I used the bathroom. 

I was trying to sleep a house and the bed was very high up.  The room didn't have good curtains and there was really too much light to sleep.  I remember the bed had a blanket on top that was light blue with clouds. The room had all sort of weird things in it that weren't mine.  On a ledge next to the door were two pairs of baby athletic shoes for soccer I think.  They weren't just there to be cute though I knew the child had played on a team as a toddler. The room also had a wire book stand next to the bed with a man's razor and other nick nacks that kept falling through the shelves. 

I was in an old school (turn of the century) and we were supposed to be reading from a class text book and also as many other books as we could but also at the same time.  There was a some goal to see who could read the most of each but you couldn't really do both. Also the books weren't in the classroom but on another floor so I had to keep walking back and forth.

Evil Baby

July 16, 2017

I dreampt about a group of people that kidnapped an evil baby that was the reincarnation of their last leader.  They didn't want to wait for the baby to grow up and they didn't want to put the baby in a really deteriorated corpse.  The baby didn't have the strength to move from body to body like a possession. They found a body of one of their followers that had recently died.  He was in a coffin but it was filled with water and herbs to preserve him and keep his body flexible. A woman in the group lifted the dead mans hand out of the water and he was very pale with super long fingers.  He also had a long dark beard. He seemed to be wearing a robe like other people.  It made me think they were druids. To move the baby into the adults body they needed a book that was at the library but there was a post it note over the barcode saying something was wrong with the record so the just stole the book.  The story was the life of their leader and it was told in verse.  The book was supposed to tell them how to get the soul of the baby into the corpse.  They had to kidnap a group of girls but the girls were adept at escaping each challenge unhurt.  A lot of the challenges were riding in roller coaster with no seat belts of safety harness.  I woke up before the spell was completed. 

I also dreampt about a little boy with polio who was hiding in a bathtub but I never saw what he was hiding from nor did I figure out how he got in the bathtub.

I dreampt I was trying to get dressed for work and I couldn't pick out jewelry that I liked. I was wearing this really crazy outfit that was one red and one green velvet slipper with knee sock that alternated with these knee high blue boots.  I was wearing a skirt that was plaid ruffles in the front with a longer cape like back made of really cheap material like a kids first sleeping bag. I know I had a watch and a bracelet that said my name.  I can't think of what the top looked like.

Art imitates life

June 24, 2017

I dreampt I checked out some really titillating books from the library and they were fascinating but I was also horrified.  It was like a scary movie where I was curious but also sickened.  I wanted more books like them but I was afraid to take the books back to the library and have the staff see what i had borrowed.  Never mind that I could have just put them in the bookdrop. 

I dreampt I was going to run a race with someone and we were trying to make arrangements for where to leave our cars in the neighborhood nearby but my dog was with me and I had couldn't figure out where he should stay.  At one point I got the time of the race wrong and then later I left my dog in the car for a long time and felt terrible .  In my dream we never go the the race or at least i woke up beforehand.

I dreampt I was at a deli that was part of a restaurant that was downtown in a big city.  I was startled to see a treat I had wanted for some time and I got so excited that I cried. I paid in cash and it took a long time time because i kept finding foreign currency in coins in my purse.

I took my dog for a a walk at an apartment complex I used to live in and while we were walking i realized i had another dog.  We went home I found I had a three legged blonde/tan girl dog who was waiting at the top of the stairs for us.  Then I went to my art class but I had a really hard time because I didn't have any inspiration and we were supposed to have written a four page story ahead of time to base the visual project on but I didn't know about that part or just didn't do it.  We had to make something 3D.  Mine was going to be huge, taller than me but then i found out the due date so i changed mine to more like a shoe box.  It was supposed to have all these layer represented time and history and growth in the story.  We had to finish the work at home but i didn't have any of the supplies.  suddenly it seemed like it was time to go and we all went next store where some people and myself had to work at the coffee shop while other students got more time to work on their art. this was about the time my dog woke me up.

Modern Ice Age

May 27, 2014

Have you seen the overly large animals at the science museum that used to roam the earth during the ice age? The saber tooth tigers, mammoths, huge sloth and beaver? I dreampt that giant horses were alive, they were orange and white like huge tabby cats and they were enormous in a way I cannot describe. I've seen draft horses and in my dream they were bigger and carnivorous. It was fantastically terrifying, it was like the book Scorpio Races by Maggie Steifvater.

Books and Birthdays

10/3/16

I wrote a book and while I was riding on a bus I showed another woman.  I fell asleep and when I woke up she had taken my book but no one would help me look for it since no one has seen it.  The next day at work an advanced readers copy of my book arrived by it didn't have my name on it and it was from a totally different publisher.

I threw a birthday party for one of my storytime kids though I didn't know the kid or even recognize the name.  We had cake but not much else. The party was at a family members house but you had to get there through a museum.  There was a baby outside on the front porch that we fed strawberries but when my friends drove over with a book we fed only certain letters to the baby. We never did sing happy birthday.

Wild West

March 2, 2015

I dreampt about Doctor Manhattan of the Watchmen. He was in the Wild West fighting a family of criminals whose signature was they each only had one ear. There was treasure map that you had to read by candlelight. It somehow blew up and made a compass rose on the floor. Also the explosion killed all but two people and made there skin silver.

Funeral in the backyard

August 21, 2015

Today I had a two hour nap during which Mercer Mayer, the kids book author, came to my house and we had a funeral in the backyard, and while i know he is a he in my dream he was a she. Then we went to work, I had to do research on barbershops and then i got locked in the bathroom at the Bellfair Country Store and i had to get people's attention in the building across the street. Then I woke up.
