To the Stars

Dream 4/22/2016

I'm at a baseball tournament today, watching my friend Tim play.

Tim has a break so we take a few steps over to NASA Headquarters to check out their new space ship. We walk up the stairs to where the ship is being constructed. We're overly joyed. We take a small device in our hands which is a time machine and travel back to 1967. (In my dream, America landed on the moon in 1965.) We watch as they build the first space shuttle (Which doesn't make sense being that it's 1967). We put on the first ever astronaut helmets. The feeling is euphoric. We travel back to modern times where we are met with Tim's father. We tell him about our travels to the past. We go on to share on knowledge of the NASA space program with him. Dream ends.

Father of The Year

Dream 4/21/2016

I'm visiting my cousin in Illinois.

     I don't leave my room the entire time I am here. On top of the dresser in my room is a sink. I take a bath in it. One day, my dad comes to visit. That same day, my cousin gets the new PS4.5 aka Playstation NEO. It's really small. I have no idea how to fit a CD in it. My dad and I play wrestling. He gets really into it, like he is a kid again. We finish with our gaming and sit back up at the table where everyone else is.

     Out of the blue, my dad says something demeaning to my sisters kid. Everyone around the table is frozen in shock and doesn't know what to say. Somebody asks him why he said what he said. He replies with, "I don't give a damn!" Just like a rotten child would say it.  I look at him and say, "Well, if you ever talk to one of my kids that way, I'm gonna give you a knuckle sandwich right to your jaw." He becomes angry, "what did you say?" he screams across the table. "You better get out of my sight right now or I'm gonna come unglued," he says, not quite making eye contact with me anymore. So I walk out of the house.

     I walk down the path to DJ's house, but he isn't there, he's back at the table with everyone else. I walk to the barn where we did karaoke as kids. I stare down the field, where I learned how to drive a truck. I see mobile home upon mobile home all the way down the field. I think of all the memories I've had with this place. Dream ends.

Lion

Dream 4/19/2016

     I am in a large auditorium. The walls are lined with shelves loaded with books. Bad men are chasing me. They mean to do me harm. The rules say that in order for me to defeat these men, I have to knock all the books off of the shelves. It seems impossible but I try. I start knocking as many books as I can off of the shelves while dodging the bad men's attacks, but it's too hard. I know I won't be able to do it. In a voice of desperation I yell, "Oh God, help me!" All of a sudden, a Lion, with lights flowing in and around Him, shows up and devours the bad men. Dream ends.

The Machine

Dream 4/12/2016

There is a machine that can turn toy cars into real ones.

A kid that's hanging out with us, Andrew, says that he has a red toy Volkswagen Van. He tells me I can have it. We make a pit stop at his house and me and two other guys tear his room apart trying to find the Van, but we can't. It's nowhere to be seen. We get back in the car, disappointed, and I tell Andrew, "If you run across the Volkswagen van, I will give you $1000.00 for it." The guy next to me whispers, "that's a good deal." Andrew tells me that he will look for it. Dream ends.

Abducted

Dream 4/10/2016

I'm living in my Middletown house again.

Many people come and hang around my place. One by one the people start to disappear. We all know what it is. Alien abduction. After ten people get abducted, we make a plan to get ourselves taken by the aliens. The plan works. We are on the way to their planet. We get there and it looks very similar to our planet. In fact, the aliens aren't even hostile, they're quite nice. And the abductees are all fine as well. Who knew? Dream ends.

Hairspray

Dream 4/10/2016

My brother-in-law, Chad, and me are driving to my aunt's house.

I ask Chad which aunt we are visiting. He says, "your aunt soda." My aunt is having a party but we are there to pick up a few items that we stored in her barn. Me and chad drink Monsters as he drives. I ask him for a can of hair spray. He hands me the can. It looks just like the Monster. I tell him that I am worried I will get confused and drink the hair spray.

We make it to my aunts house. I run inside to the bathroom to look at myself in the mirror. I spray some spray into my hair and style it, then I leave, forgetting the hairspray on the bathroom counter. When I get back outside, I tell Chad that I forgot the spray inside but I'm too afraid to go and get it. He says it's okay, he'll go and get it but he never does. Dream ends.

Hungry Hungry SHARKS!!!

Dream 4/10/2016

I'm having lunch in the cafeteria at school.

The cafeteria is on the ocean. The tables float on top of the water. My friend, Derek, sits down next to me. The conversation turns to sharks. Derek informs us that their has never been a shark attack here. Right when he ends that sentence, a shark comes busting through the table and lunges toward Derek. Derek is able to avoid it. No one is hurt. Dream ends.

The Twin Towers

Dream 4/8/2016

     September 11, 2001. I'm visiting the World Trade Center, conducting business on the fifth floor. All of a sudden, I hear a loud noise and the building starts to shake. I immediately think to escape. I see a line for the elevators, I skip it and run toward the stairs. The stairwell is packed too but eventually I make it outside. When I get out, I look up. I don't see smoke at the top of the building. Did the plane go in? I ask people standing around me if they saw a plane. I try to watch for the second tower, to see if a plane causes the destruction, at the same time I am running toward a parking lot adjacent to the WTC property.

     There is a small building at the corner of the parking lot. I run to it. In it, I find many stray people and my dialysis nurse, Laura. She says that it's time for treatment. I sit down and she pokes me with two needles the size of roofing nails. I whisper to her, "you and I both know what happens, the tower is going to fall. What do I do when that happens?" She tells me that she will get me a mask..

     Once again, everything begins to shake. I know what is happening. I hear screams all around me. Laura walks over to me and places a hospital mask on my face. I throw on my hood, close my eyes, and cover my face. I know when the smoke and dust enters the building because the screams escalate. I feel the soot when it hits me. I feel myself move. I hit the wall. Later when I would open my eyes, I would find that the soot moved me about five feet across the room.

     The room is taken over by dust and soot. Everywhere. Part of the building was destroyed when the tower collapsed. Much of the roof is missing. I look out the window to see if I can see the remaining tower. A man tells me, "it's over there." I look to where he's pointing. I see it. It looks further away.

     After my dialysis treatment is finished. I get in a car and try to leave the city. The people that I'm with comment on how different the city looks without the towers. As I'm driving, building #7 collapses behind me. I see the whole thing. Dream ends.
