Dreams – 12/12

12/12/24: I was back at LLCC to (finally)be honored for making the NJCAA HOF, but everything was dark when white LED spotlights hit me from all 360 degrees and I was blinded. People started yelling at me but I couldn’t understand them. I closed my eyes and was in an apartment/small house. I opened the dishwasher because I heard it rattling and saw a spinning laser-disc inside and realized the dishwasher doubled as the controller for the A/C unit.

12/12/23 #1: There was an orgy going on in a living room next to a bedroom that were in the basement of the main building where I went to high school. I was looking for my wife (who wasn’t Julie) but had an Asian-Indian woman who jumped on me/locked her legs around me and was making me carry her around while trying to kiss me and get me to fall down into a bed with her. I got free and found that all my clothes were gone and that many people there were from T-Town and Stew-Stras High Schools and that I could be recognized by “Kenny the Custodian” so I tried to hide and then found my wife laying on a couch trying to nap while people were all moshed together around her.

12/12/23 #2: I was in a soccer match but didn’t realize I was the goalie until I swatted a ball with my hand and wasn’t called by the official. I was in a white long-sleeved shirt and the opponents were Argentina (light blue). I realized we were all shrinking because the goal I was defending became the fireplace in my mom’s living room while our goal was the arch into the TV room. The soccer ball shrank to golf ball size and then my teammates disappeared and were replaced by Kaiju and Jaeger and Kaiju kept taking the ball and gnawing on it because it turned out to be a cotton ball. He flung it and scored a goal. Then I scored a goal by flicking it with my finger into the other room. Argentina kept kicking the ball between my legs but never hit the fireplace.

12/12/22 #1: I was watching a football game either on TV or from the last row in the highest stands. I was listening to commentators in my head. The Colts threw a touchdown pass and the reporter said “Cornerback DJ Metcalf blew the ESPN coverage.” I wondered what he meant, then he drew the routes of two receivers and the two defenders and how it was supposed to look like ESPN but actually looked like ESPZ.

Then I was part of the game as a wide receiver. I ran my route but the quarterback was pressured, escaped, and scored a rushing TD. I was the first to come and hug him but we couldn’t hear one another because there was so much noise around us–and I realized we were playing for Penn State and that it hadn’t been the Colts.

12/12/22 #2: I was talking with Jane Fonda and a TV reporter in a breakfast nook. I was explaining to Fonda that when progress comes, that’s the point that people complain the most. She was unconvinced and wanted to talk about herself and her upcoming tell-all book about death.

12/12/21: I was a new volleyball coach and had a meeting with my new team in a classroom. I showed them my ‘revolutionary’ W-formation for serve-receive. They said nothing. We had to move rooms because of a class–and on the walk to another room, I lost my team, but I ran into people I knew went to Iowa State (including Paul E….who was 18 years old again). Eventually, I found the room where we would meet again, but there was a group huddled around an instructor discussing psychological motivation but I wondered if it was a class or if it was actually the football team practicing.
