Dreams – 8/22

8/22/25: I was sitting in a room watching Julie walk towards me in the distance. She was with a black man with a tightly-shaved goatee. Then she was gone but I saw a car where two legs were sticking up with feet on the dash bouncing and I knew Julie was there with another man and I felt really sad. Then I was sitting on the floor next to a table with several other people and my daughter was talking through an intercom asking me if I had ever cheated on Mom. Everyone was staring at me and I couldn’t get a word out so I laid down and curled up in a fetal position under the table.

8/22/24: Uncle Helmut was driving a stickshift car–the shifter knob was silver. I was where the passenger seat was supposed to be, crammed in with Eric C. It was dark and the windshield was foggy. I was scared because Uncle Helmut kept running on to the edge of roads hanging over cliffs. Then we realized we weren’t on a road anymore but going into broken terrain. Eric got out several times to make sure we weren’t going to drive over an edge or something. He then started waving and there was a man “over a cliff”–except he was at the same level we were. We couldn’t figure out how to give him CPR. Then it was brightly lit and there was a “playpen” made with chain-link fence and men inside were trying to recover a toddler who was on our side–I lifted him up and over–then the baby squished his head back through the fence and kept trying to get out.

8/22/23 #1: i had volleyball players sitting at a table and they were mad at me. They didn’t like who was playing or the system we were running, so they handed me a report. I said “But we won” and they chanted “That’s not good enough” so I hung my head, went through a door, and was at a reception where I was talking with the former TTown AD–except she was in her 20s. She was wearing a houndstooth power suit/dress and carrying a thin black briefcase. I tried to explain it to her but she just kept walking.

8/22/23 #2: I was on a school bus and it was driving into water, the driver thinking she/he could reach higher ground quickly. The water got deeper and deeper, so I stuck my head through the sunroof and eventually only my head was above water and the driver asked if we should go on. I said “The bus touched bottom” so we kept going into the middle of the now-lake. I realized if we left the warm water it was now winter and I would die of hypothermia. I blinked and I was in a hotel atrium trying to get into a conference. The door guard wouldn’t let me in and said I had to leave. I didn’t want to freeze to death, so the students with me suggested I just stand there by the door until my shorts/shirt were dry.

8/22/23 #3: There was a zombie attack expected. No one knew what to do. Someone suggested lining up like we were heading to recess, then someone opened a ‘holy book’ and it had the answer: “Do not become the Dead, merely act Dead.”

8/22/22: I was in a gold-colored car and we were backing up through stopped cars towards a wrecked car. It was on top of an overpass. My wife (I didn’t see a face to know if it was Julie in the dream) started screaming I’d hit the wreck or go over the edge. This spooked me but I didn’t go over OR hit the car. I was exactly three feet from the railing and from the car. Then I noticed my gold car was a “Toyota Escalade Grande”.

8/22/21: I went into a cave with Eric C. We were kids–but also adults. ??? We went down some stairs and got trapped in a room that was really white. Apparently the trap was set by people who molested kids. One came downstairs with drugs to sedate us, but while Eric distracted him, I knocked him unconscious…and then Eric took the syringe and injected air into the guy’s veins (yeah, I know), killing him. We knew more would come down, so Eric hid out of sight of the surveillance cameras views and did a ‘spiderman’ move and balanced himself on the ceiling over the entrance. Four guys came in and saw me and chased me until I surrendered, but Eric escaped to go get help from the National Guard and Jodie Foster.
