Last night, I had several dreams. It’s been a while since I’ve written anything down so bear with me. This first one happened between 9pm-1am. I don’t remember when I fell asleep but I know I woke up just before 1 thinking it had to be at least 4am. I was up until 3:30am maybe then I fell asleep until 9-10am.

in the first part, I was walking into a school gym from the back. the place was completely decorated in presidential things- podiums and streamers everywhere. there are cords hanging from all over the place. Amy was walking in front of me and I asked her if they set this all up last night. She said yes. We used to have to set it up the morning of but this is more efficient. But the schedule still allows us to not take part in our first period class since we could not be present for the whole class. we went off to the band room where everyone was practicing. for some reason, only the clarinets were exempt from class. the band was going and all the clarinets were sitting there goofing off. Erin played a little bit but not much.

just then a lady walks into the front with a few other students. she has an announcement to make. there were 2 students there who were Colton, CA candidates and she was announcing 2 more. Then there were 2 girls who were named. I was so shocked. I looked at another girl in the band, I think it was Amanda, and signaled 2 being confused. I needed to text Matt and tell him the terrible news. I pulled out my phone and during the message, I kept having trouble spelling Colton for some reason, but I explained how there were 4 Colton people here in class right now.

I woke up after that part. There’s another scene that I am unsure when it happened.

It was a long hot summer day and I was walking down the street with Linda. There was a trade show going on. I went into this one computer place. This guy who ran it started conversation. Then he asked this lady if she was looking for a job. She wasn’t particularly interested because she had another job but I wanted to know why he didn’t ask me. She had some graphic background and I didn’t. It was a nice conversation and I eventually left to go find Linda. We walked outside and through front doors and I saw Chau. We kinda glanced at each other and nodded a hello. Linda was done and as we were walking back, she asked if I knew about this one pizza place or something. Her and her friends wanted to meet up there. I coincidentally just had a conversation about it, though I’ve never been there, and explained to her where it was.

In the next set of dreams, I was driving to visit Joanne in New York. I ended up at a restaurant and she said to leave my car there and she’d pick me up from there. Trattatori’s. Next thing we’re in this big audience or at her house. I remember wandering around a little and being at a mall too. It is a bit of a blur. I just remember that when we had to leave, I couldn’t find my car. I thought maybe I just left it somewhere else but just kept going with Joanne.

There was another part where I was supposed to be going out with Matt and his mom. We were doing something but then were reminded that we only had 30 minutes left until we had to go. I start rushing around to find clothes and shoes. That ended up taking forever since nothing was working right. Meanwhile, Matt kept coming out of my brother’s room with different outfits on seeing what worked. Several of them being fairly feminine. My tights had a tear in them and none of my shoes fit right. Eventually we got to this restaurant and Matt’s mom was sitting there waiting. She ordered ahead some steak and pasta dish. She asked why we were so late and James, who was sitting next to her, said that I was being a girl. I got the menu and started flipping through. There was a lot of text and it was like reading a program to a show. I couldn’t actually take in any of the content because I just became so exhausted that I couldn’t read it. I got to the end and gave it to Matt.

His mom saw some parade outside or something and wanted to join in. We left the restaurant and did the parade and stopped into another restaurant for the end of parade treat or something. We headed back to the original restaurant and our table had been cleared. James made a point that we left for the parade and that was not brief. The sign said please seat yourself and we were looking around for clear tables as Matt’s mom tried to talk to a guy about our table. She finally came around and picked a table. When we got there, 2 of the plates had peanuts on them, as if people were already there. She and James took their seats and then we realized that mine and Matt’s seat had coats on the backs of the chairs. This had to be someone table. Food started coming out and Matt didn’t care anymore. He sat down and started eating with James. I asked whose food it was. Apparently, the front of the restaurant had been reserved for some event for Yoko Ono. We were eating her food as her guests. I didn’t feel right about it.

That was a bulk of it. I’ll see if anything comes up later.
