work trip hotel // friend of a friend

  I was at this amazing hotel and it was with work. It was a combination of old gamestop managers and current starbucks managers. This means very little in the overall scheme of things, outside of the fact that so many of them seemed to be talking about how annoying it was to be at this all expense paid conference at this truly incredible hotel (subway lines between buildings; bathosphere elevator system) and they spoke mostly of how annoying things at work were. I think some of that has to do with their level of commitment to work, as that’s sort of how i operate in the real world, but to nitpick and dive in to the nitty gritty of the workplace HERE of all places was really bothering me. In this dream, though, i don’t remember much of the actual details of their complaints or dialog, just that it was following me everywhere. I left an entire pile of luggage at a railway station because i was walking away from them to avoid it. I went down the elevator to have a drink at a HUGE hot...

an entity to care for.

  We were in this cabin out in some remote area. Not too far out of the way of a main “town” area, but if you didn’t have a car you’d be there until you could reach out for communication. I was living in a house with four cats and then “next door” to that was some kind of facility where an experiment was going on. It was unclear whether it was with an alien or an entity or a portal, but they[/we?] were doing tests on it to ensure its safety and it was also a benevolent energy that didn’t want to harm us. A new ‘stranger’ came into the area we were in and would drive by a lot in a rusted looking car. One time he got out of the car and was incredibly belligerent, basically threatening us and telling us he was going to kill us and the thing that we were doing experiments on. There were a bunch of us working at that lab and we all worked together to set up a series of “traps” and also little alarms and things that we could lay that if the stranger came around and tried to get in, it wo...

she wouldnt let go.

  i dreamed i think i was dating or spending a lot of time with the girl Dori from Demon Coppherhead but she was a mix of a few girls in real life. she was with someone else but spending a lot of time with me. her boyfriend was making her sad and she would call me and we would talk and i had made no uneven remarks, i didnt want to be her friend, i wanted to be with her and she knew that. she just couldnt make the push away from him. we were going out a lot, spending a lot of time out of the house and i finally picked her up one day in the city. she had been left there and was so sad, like, couldnt move. and she was sitting up on this divider or fence and i was leaning on it and she pulled my arm around her. and we sat there for a long time. i asked did she want to do something to get her out of this mood or did she want to stay in it? and she said she wanted to stay in it so i lifted her and put her down on the road with me and we kissed and she put her head on my shoulder. i asked...

some new place.

  We were on our last day of some trip and i think there were a bunch of us all ready to go home or there was some kind of instance where we were all separating for something and we stopped at some kind of new resort. The feeling is that everything was new to us, but we all knew each other as well. We were walking down a road which was from the main area where we were (camp?) and were walking by these beautiful, beautiful vistas. Like, AI generated, no way they are real on earth, no way that they are places that haven’t been photographed before. One girl looked over the ledge of one giant valley (it looked almost like a massive meteor had hit it, so deep and round in the earth but it was covered covered in greenery and a huge waterfall. It looked like the rainforest and/or Ferngully.) and yelled the typical “Hellloooo” but her voice didn’t come back in a standard echo, instead it came back slower and lower, like it had altered her voice to be this giant thing. And when she spoke ...

the labyrinth film.

  I had a dream that was time split into two parts. There is a girl who dances for the ballet company near the Starbucks I work at. Her name is Jillian. Somehow, me and Jillian are cast in this movie about a maze inside a house. This first part is as if I’m watching the movie. There are two elements of this movie, one was entering into the house from the outside, one is a bathroom scene with the two of us. We are both talking as we are in somewhat dark lit room walking into the house. It feels less like a home and more like we are going through tunnels or a sewer or something. The major camera elements show our face from the lower right side and the lighting is that of a candle or something. But that’s not what it looks like to the characters… to the characters, everything is pitch black. The reason that the lighting is on us is to show our facial expressions while we’re talking on our way in. At first, we think it’s the way the house is designed, we can hear each other speak from ...

The most effective with the least preparation.

 I was in either a class or a production job and was given the randomized assignment of making a production (contextless) of a mermaid who was rising up and trying to get out of the lower ranks of their caste to become something bigger and better and to also revolt against the caste system altogether. At this phase in the dream, I think I had already had this assignment waiting for me for some time and I was thinking that I had all of the info I needed mentally but hadn't spent the time actually preparing for it. I thought I would just go out there and wing it and in my mind, it was going to be performed on stage and I was going to have teal lighting and I was going to play a "dark, instrumental" version of 'Under the Sea'. When I got to "class" (which was outside on the street kind of like at an outdoor live music venue) the first "student" went up and he had all of this music set up along with a recorded video and his delivery of his informat...

This is the pugilist you have long awaited.

I had a dream that felt like a nightmare where i was consumed with all of this foam. This was a dream at around 3:45 in the morning and it’s 5:50 now, so the details are a bit cloudy now, as if i can’t quite grip them, and in dream terms, it starts to feel as if i’m just kind of making it all up. But i had a thick white foam all over me, possibly spreading. I think i got it from touching a patch on the floor and it slowly consumed me over time. The weight of it was not discernible, but the lack of control i started to feel around my body began to rise, as if it were soaking me down like wet towels. It wasn’t the heaviness that made it feel denser, but the saturation of it. I think at some point, another man, some kind of agent was trying to wrangle me in and i ended up whipping foam at him from my enormously thick arm..
