At least, I hope it was a dream

Last night I dreamt that Lauren came back to our apartment out of breath and began to cry because she missed her bus. It doesn't really sound like her though. The crying part, not the missing the bus part. Because Lauren is very likely to miss buses.

Like Dreamers Do

I had three dreams that were mildly sequential.

First, we had a new roommate instead of Eduarda. It was an old woman, one of the seasonals, named Carol. She decided she needed to use my bedroom and moved all of my stuff to another bedroom and I was thoroughly offended because I really don't like people touching my stuff.

Second, I was at home with my roommates and Domenic and possibly one other guy, I'm not sure who. I think Carol was fighting with one of them so I decided to leave. I try to get dressed, but first I can't decided which pair of chones to wear (weird I know but it wasn't like I was standing there naked or anything, I was about to change clothes) then I can't find any clothes that match because so many of my clothes are still in California. I have a crimson top, my red patent leather platform slingbacks, my new black heels with snake skin accent and a light yellow and blue striped linen pencil skirt that is really dirty, the whole thing is very dingy as if it is really old. So naturally none of these really go together to create a whole ensemble. Plus, then my roommates and Domenic and the other guy all sort of split up and decide to go different places but nobody includes me so I'm left alone with my mismatched clothes.

Third, I was at work, in tower (although our ride is now actual multiple water slides instead of one big raft flume but whatever) and I saw a grandfather, father, and three little boys on a tube or something going down one slide on the monitor and the little boys were standing up. So I spieled to them to sit down, they didn't. I hit the ride stop and spieled again but obviously on a slide there is nothing to stop them it just meant other people wouldn't go on after them. Then I tried to restart the ride by calling whoever has the other restart button because it would be on the turntable but there was obviously no turntable and who was working there? Carol. I counted down so we could hit the button together but it didn't work. She said I counted too fast. Tried again and she gave another excuse. Finally a third time I counted very clearly and slowly but I hit the wrong button and the whole console started moving out towards me. Apparently there was another green button next to the restart button that caused this. So I hit it again and it paused and then continued to move. Then I noticed a small red button behind it and pushed that and that made it stop. But before I could try to restart the ride, the console started smoking so I yelled for help and a bunch of people came in and helped me clear out the smoke so the smoke alarm wouldn't go off with the sprinklers and then completely destroy the electrical system. We accomplished this and then the managers and engineers and other people showed up to find out what happened and accuse me and I had to keep retelling the story which is probably why I remember this dream so clearly. I kind of implied that Carol was somewhat to blame because she couldn't restart the ride properly.

Not a fun dream for me

I dreamt that I got into a screaming fight with my brother that escalated into physical hitting.

Another Baby Dream

I dreamt that my new Brazilian roommate told me she couldn't go to Animal Kingdom this morning as planned because she had to go to Traditions and suddenly she had a baby and decided to leave him behind by putting him in a baby swing, saying vaguely in thickly accented English that we didn't actually have to watch him just if he needs anything to give it to him. So I went up to Darlene and was all "is she seriously leaving her baby here?" and Darlene said something Darlene-y. So I went and looked at the baby (really more like a young toddler) and saw that he looked like this other kid I knew who was possibly retarded so then I decided to study him more to decide if he too was retarded. Also, I didn't want to leave a possibly retarded child alone in a baby swing. But I was still mad that she cancelled our plans and then went off and left her possibly retarded son in our care without even asking us.

6 o'clock already and I was just in the middle of a dream

I dreamt that I overslept and woke up just as the bus was supposed to arrive (10:28) making me panicked that I woud be late for work. Then, I realized it was actually only 7 something and I went back to sleep.

Somebody Spoke And I Went Into A Dream

Last night, I dreamt that I was married to Domenic and pregnant. He was taking me to meet with some Animal Programs people. On the way, I realized I wasn't dressed in professional attire but I figured I was pregnant, so that was as good an excuse as any to wear jeans. Then before the meeting, I was apparently having contractions although I didn't feel any pain, I just suddenly became aware that the impending child would be arriving soon. My husband called an ambulance but as it arrived, I was kidnapped and I remember reaching out and screaming his name, dramatically brushing his face with my fingers as I was carried away, then I blacked out. I woke up in the back of a semi with some middle aged church looking ladies who were talking about finding an alternate route to the hospital. I was incensed that they apparently didn't know how to get me to the hospital but they were trying to keep from knowing that they were lost.

Year of Dreams (if not quite a million)

Perhaps there is some inverse relationship between living your dreams and having them while you sleep because I haven't dreamt much at all since I've been here. Or it could be because I usually sleep only 5 or 6 hours a night. Either/or. However, I did have a dream last night during which I went to Disneyland with Kelli. She found out the park was closing early for a Christmas party so she decided to upgrade our tickets and I was like eh I don't really want to pay for that plus she got us more days in the park, but we had to go home when I wanted to buy tickets to the Christmas party so we could just stay later that night. Then she disappeared during the ticket fiasco so I had to try to track her down and I went inside this weird building that looked like a school built in the '70s that oddly enough houses Space Mountain to find a dry place to call her. Oh yea, it was raining.

Juno Who

I dreamt that I was pregnant and trying to pull a Juno type thing with Ryan. Not the part where I give the baby away though. I actually had no plans after giving birth. But I was ready to have the baby even though I was probably only 4 months along. I already had all I wanted in the hospital with me: a book and chapstick.

And now I can't remember the second one! Crap.

Family and Co-Cast Member Matters

In this dream, my parents were filthy rich and I was scorning their wealth and did not want their help getting a job with favors or whatever rich people use which I guess is why I was working at Disney? Not sure. They also had two sets of twins, infants and toddlers. The youngest were named Harry and Samantha I think and the older two were Harry and something. So yea, I had two brothers named Harry. They also had a bunch of nannies. I snuck in the house to see my siblings without having to talk to my parents and the nannies sort of aided and abetted.

Also, in what may or may not have been a related adventure, I dreamt about this really hot Portuguese guy I work with. No details about this part, I don't remember much except that I was trying to start a conversation with him with only minimal success.
