Dreams – 5/21

5/21/25: I was in a car inside a parking garage when a guy reached under my car and stole something from a secret compartment. I got out and chased him into a crowd. I grabbed him–he was wearing a plain gray sweatshirt. I took him to a table in front of a storage room. There was a sleeping old, fat woman in a police uniform and another old woman looking like a PE teacher. The PE teacher asked “Do you really want to pursue this? Even honor calls cost $89.” I said yes (but didn’t say anything). She asked “Do you have witnesses?” I said, “100” and gestured around me. Everyone in the garage started laughing and the crook fell to the floor laughing, too.

5/21/24: I was sitting on a bed in a small room talking to Julie. We were laughing and then it got really quiet. I looked and Julie was laying on her stomach on the ground. She had a white bra and cream-colored slip on–her head wasn’t at the right angle and was facing me (her face was sort of Picasso-style or a background image from a late-90s video game). I started rocking forward and backwards on the bed/almost somersaults because I knew she wasn’t alive. My sister appeared and said “It was an allergic reaction to Percocet”. [This woke me up, fully awake, and I was unable to go back to sleep afterwards–4am]

5/21/23: I was running on the slope of a hill listening to simultaneous basketball games. The announcer said it was the first time ever for the poorer seed to win every game on the same day but that confused me because only two games were played. Suddenly I was heading downhill towards a house and realized I was walking through really tall, thick grass that was up to my knee and that I had to step out of the grass and back down onto it to move at all. At that point I was suddenly sitting and found myself barefoot with a burn on my right big toe. It was red/blistered in the center and turned gradually to black as it radiated out and reminded me of a topographical map of Mt. Suribachi.

5/21/22 #1: I was attending a trial in an office building. I heard crying and tried to ignoreit. My sister said I needed to do something about it because it was disrupting her work. I went and people were streaming out of a room. Inside, there was a midget woman judge who was crying because she couldn’t get her computer to work. I flipped the power to ‘on’ and she started dancing.

5/21/22 #2: I was in a warehouse while they were trying to move an unpainted SR-71 outside to use its 12 engines for a test. They wanted to see if they could melt something. There was a field crew and I knew there was also a man sitting in each engine’s separate cockpits. One of the field crew flagged me down because I didn’t have ear coverings and walked me around the building. It was Larry, my JV volleyball coach, and he was excited because we were in a midnight tournament in Des Moines. At the front, it was the Dittmer St. Economy Roofing. I sat at my dad’s desk when Dave P. brought his VB team in to have a look around where they used to play. When they left, I went to the other room to teach a Sex Ed class. My books arrived by Fed Ex and I took one next door where the same class was being taught by Janine Peck (someone I went to HS with…). I handed her the books and said “These suck. You guys need to get out more rather than be in class.” She rolled/bowled a 2-liter of Dr. Pepper towards my office and I left to grab it.

5/21/22 #3: I was in a living room with Eric C. and two women. The women went to the bathroom. One came out. Eric wanted to peek inside at the other to see if she was doing #1 or #2. I wanted to scare her when she walked out. I went to sit down again, she opened the bathroom door, and I was suddenly commanding a spaceship in a massive multi-player combat game. I shot down a Star Wars Corellian cruiser and destroyed special golden sensors on a ship that was supposed to be the Enterprise. Someone shot at me and I realized the knob I was using to go left/right could be pushed in/pulled out to adjust pitch/yaw and if I pushed the knob’s button, my speed went to ‘turbotax’ mode.

5/21/22 #4: I was barbecuing next to tall hedges. It was sunny and it was summer. It was a small area surrounded by bushes/hedges–so I had no way out of the little area. [no other details remained]

5/21/21: I was teaching in a narrow, dim classroom painted green. I was doing attendance but it was parents who were there and explaining who their kids were. The last names were all kids I taught in high school, but the parents kept apologizing and saying, “He’s adopted” or “I’m sorry, but she’s adopted.” I got tired of hearing this so I left the room. The hallway was narrow. I walked down the hall to get out of the building but “The Fat Man” from SKSM was in the last classroom with the door open. He was wearing a priest’s outfit and I knew if he saw me, he’d want to be my friend–and that would be bad. So I went back to my classroom which was two doors down. It was gone. It was replaced by a blue room that was empty with an overhead projector sitting at the front of the room. I kept looking for my classroom and couldn’t find it. When the bell rang, I ducked in the bathroom because otherwise Fat Man would spot me.

5/21/12: I was in a park and Andrea Collins Keller was 6’2. That confused me because I don’t remember her being that tall. She must be though because she was the same height as Todd Francis (in the dream).
