The Office: After Hours

Dream 3/25/2015

Michael is sitting in his dark office, after hours.

     All the lights of the office are down. He gets excited, picks up the phone and calls Pam. She picks up. Michael asks her how to see the Moon Lady. She tells him he has to open up all the window blinds and let the light from the moon inside. He follows her instructions.

     The door opens. Pam, Jim, Andy, Erin, Dwight, and Angela walk in. They just got back from having drinks. All of them crowd around Pam's desk to watch her play Solitaire. The rest of the office workers come in for a late night work shift.

     A lady from corporate shows up. She starts yelling at Michael. He tells her he loves her. Dream ends.

I wake up.

Sex and Things

Dream 3/22/2015

My family and me are walking through a store before church.

     We get into a disagreement. They say something like you don't deserve to go to church. They leave me at the store. I tell the cashier that my family left me and then I leave myself.

     I go down to a camp. It's mixed genders and ages. I start dating three girls at the same time. One I think is brunette, another is tall and has red hair, a bit on the quirky side. The last one has dark, blonde hair, she defines the word 'sexy.' Beautiful, she moves slow and cool like a wild cat on a hunt.

     I walk into one of the cabin bedrooms and there she is waiting for me. The blonde lies on the bed naked. Her bare breasts staring back at me, her bottom half covered up by the blanket. I crawl into bed with her. We kiss. We do things that you're not allowed to do at camp.

     Later that day, the leadership of the camp is in an uproar at how all the campers are having sex with each other. They hold a meeting at the cafeteria. I pass my old friend Adam on the way. He very proudly says he convinced them of just giving him fifteen minutes in detention. Once I get into the cafeteria, I find my lawyer, a thirteen year old kid. I ask him where we can meet. He says at the flower shop. Dream ends.

I wake up.

Clean Side

Dream 3/21/2015

I'm spending the day at my aunts house.

     Everyone is here. Everywhere you walk, there are people. I suddenly get the urge to clean my aunts house. I ask my cousin, Wendy, if she can get me some cleaning supplies. I follow her into the house where more of my cousins are. While I wait for her to bring the supplies, my other cousin, Danny, who lives here, asks me if he can watch the game on TV. I tell him that it's his house and he can do whatever he wants. He turns on the Cubs game. Wendy returns with the supplies. I thank her.

     I walk to the front of the house which looks out to a beautiful lake. I start cleaning the front window panels. Each panel of glass is mixed with a picture. There are many of them. I find one of me. When I am finished, I walk to the front porch where it seems everyone is hanging out. My mom is making a birthday cake for someone. My friend Jack is helping. Jack is on house arrest so every five minutes he has to run back to the house so that the police don't show up. Dream ends.

I wake up.

Ice Cold

Dream 3/20/2015

My friends and me are playing a pickup game of Ice Hockey.

     Thousands of people have come to watch. Instead of playing with hockey sticks, we're playing with axes. By the end of the second period, my team is ahead 8-4.

     Right before the third and final period begins, my friends on the team, the good players, wave goodbye and say they other obligations at this time. They are replaced by less than mediocre players.

We start to lose the game. Dream ends.

I wake up.

Beer Run

Dream 3/18/2015

I'm having a get together at my house.

My sisters and my brother-in-law, ask my mom and me to run out and get a 24 pack of Bud Light. puts in a special request for a few Miller Lights.

We run into town.

We end up picking up a six pack of Bud and bringing it back to the party. Everyone is a little disappointed in our ability to follow instructions.

We really dropped the ball. Dream ends

I wake up.

This River Is Wild

Dream 3/17/2015

Today is my birthday.

I decide to go to Chuck E. Cheese. Although it's a place for kids, I do enjoy the atmosphere. I talk to my friends about how somebody needs to create a place for adults that has the games and the tubes that you crawl through. Somebody says that there is such a place. It's called 'Dave and Busters.'

The next day, my mother takes me to her work. (I guess it's take your child to work day.) She works at a Brokerage firm where people buy stocks. She takes me upstairs, sits me down, hands me a piece of paper full of different companies to invest in, and tells me to buy some stocks. I pick the companies that I want to invest in but when I turn around, my mom is gone. I search all over the building but cannot find her. I know she is hiding from me.

I leave.

I walk into a neighborhood that I don't recognize. An SUV full of gangbangers pulls up. I hide in the bushes. They have a dog. It comes right to me. I push it away. They go into the house and then walk back out. They get into their car and drive away. 

I get out of the bush and walk behind the house. There is a river. I jump in and start to swim downstream but then I see the rapids up ahead. I swim back against the flow. On the banks of the river are a bunch of flotation devices. I grab an inner tube. I brace myself for a ride. I fly down the rapids. I'm surprised I didn't fall off. I come to a clearing. I jump off and make my way to land. I'm on a mountain. I can see an entire city in front of me. There are roller coasters all around me. One roller coaster has a gap in its track. The coaster jumps off one track and lands on the other. I think about my mother. Dream ends.

I wake up.

Jon

Dream 3/10/2015

I'm walking to my mom's house with my girlfriend.

Along the way I run into Jon Stewart. He's standing outside my mother's door. He asks me to turn my mom on to the idea of Nazism. I ask my girlfriend to stay outside while I go in. I walk inside, tell my mom what happened, pet my persian, go for a swim in the pool out back, and leave just as quickly as I came. 

I walk out the door and can't find my girlfriend. She is missing. Somehow I think that Jon had something to do with this. Dream ends.

I wake up

Dark Hallways

Nightmare 3/6/2015

     It's night. I'm at my old high school. Other than the two friends with me, there is nobody here. I think.

     Inside the dark hallways of the school is an elevated tram. We step onto the tram and it begins to move. A loud noise from below frightens us. We look over the tram bars and see a demonic man dressed as a clown with a circular saw as a hand.

     He chases the tram. He reaches up with his saw hand to hurt us. Several of us get slashed and cut. I tell my friends that I don't want to be here anymore. I take out my smartphone and push exit. A loading bar appears. It takes way too long.

     I jump from the tram and make a run for the exit. I make it out of the school. My friends don't. Dream ends.

I wake up.

A Night In Walmart

Dream 3/6/2015

I'm working night security at a Walmart.

One half of the store has it's lights out. On the other end of the lit half of the store are a bunch of drama school students working on a play that they are performing for their school.

I'm riding a bike up and down the aisles of the darkened half. I stop when I see in front of me a fat boy pushing a grocery cart. When he sees my eyes catching his, he takes off. I chase him. He makes it out the doors and to a light, purple mini-van. It takes off. I go back into the store to inform the drama club of the break-in. The continue their practice.

They're talking about how they will enter the stage on motorcycles. I try to impress the girls by telling them that I have a motorcycle. They don't believe me.

All of us leave the store. I follow them to the theater. Dream ends.

I wake up.

Portal

Dream 3/3/2015

Today is someone's birthday. It is a friend of my sister.

My sister's friend lives in France. Many people from my her class show up along with a few from mine. One of my best friends is here, Tim.

We walk around the house. I stay close to my sister. I'm always uncomfortable in other countries because I don't know their culture and I don't want to offend anyone with something that seems normal in mine.

I catch Tim and start a conversation with him. I ask him, "how is it that we were all able to afford this trip to France, after all, we just had a school field trip to Germany last week." Tim responds, "well, my family can afford it because we're rich but I don't know how yours came up with the money." He starts to explain to me that their is one class in high school that you must pass with flying colors or else you will be a deadbeat for the rest of your life.

It's around this time in the conversation that I notice that I am in a different place entirely. The place I am in looks like the motherboard of a computer. I wonder around a bit. It's huge. I'm like a small flea on a gigantic motherboard. I notice something strange. Just inside many of the doorways is a glossy film. I can't tell what it is. I walk and walk (I find I do this in a lot of my dreams). I just keep on walking. I walk until the sounds of life are far behind me.

I enter a room where a homosexual man is standing. He is attracted to me. He wants me. But I do not want him in that way. I run. He chases me. I run into a room the size of an auditorium. To the left of me is a playground slide. I climb onto it and lie down so that he doesn't see me. I hope he thinks that I just kept running and passes me by. I hear the door open. Silence at first and then I hear a thumping on the slide. I jump up and start running down the slide, only this is not a normal slide. It splits off into many paths and goes every direction. I pick one. It takes me to a factory where toys are made. I leave the slide and run. I just keep running. I turn corners and take doors in this gigantic maze. Anything to lose this guy behind me. I get so lost I know that he won't find me.

I come to a ramp that leads up to a glossy film. I know now that the film is a portal to another place. I run to it but it doesn't let me through. Instead, the floor starts to raise. One side and then the other. Sort of like a backwards 'Jacobs ladder.' A radio show comes on the intercom. The DJ's run a commentary on my situation. The floor keeps moving. One side raises and I run to that side, the other side raises and I run to that side. I am being lifted high into the air. Eventually it stops. In front of me is a portal. I jump through it.

I find myself in a large, dark room with many beds. The only light in the room is coming from a movie being played on the wall, via projector. But I'm the only one here. Dream ends.

I wake up.
