Chills and Thrills

Dream 2/9/2018



I am working at a nursing home. It is pitch black at night, and I am scared. The next day, I quit.

A few friends and I walk across a snow-laden field. On the other side, we find and kill four teenagers. We cross the area back to our home. We hope that we are not detected by the police.

An ocean lies near our house. My mom and I swim around the sea. She tells me about someone she passed in the water, which was drowning. When we swim that direction, we see a lifeguard saving the man's life. The ocean is only 50 yards long. Hotels are lining the other side of the water.

We walk down a beach on the other side. My brother-in-law points toward the horizon where fireworks are exploding in the night sky. Down the beach is a thrill ride. Two giant swings that hold around twenty people each are lifted back and then released. It's similar to Skyhawk at Cedar Point. We watch as the two swings go back and forth. One swing gets out of control and almost crashes into the side beam.

We find our seats on the swing. As we wait, I sing Rainbow Connection. The ride is just about to start, and I realize that my belt is not buckled. As the countdown begins, I race to get strapped in correctly, so I don't die. I can't remember anything else that happens next. I can't even remember the thrill. Dream ends.

I wake up

Backyard Roller Coaster

Dream 8/27/2017



I am building a roller coaster in my backyard. I have seen people with backyard roller coasters and I have not been impressed. My roller coaster is going to be like the thrill rides you find in an actual amusement park.

My dad and I go to a store to buy parts. In this store, I have apparently already started building my roller coaster. I show my dad the first hill of the ride. I've put it together with clay blocks. I'm trying to find out which clay blocks I need. I start doing some research on my phone. Some girls near me think I am cute. They start messing with me. One girl puts her hand in between my face and my phone. I push her hand away. I give these girls the cold shoulder bigly.

My dad is getting a bit frustrated because my shopping trip is taking longer than we anticipated. I tell him, "you know what I will do? I will just get three clay blocks today and then come back when I need more." My dad claps his hands in approval. "Good idea," he says. We walk to the front. I see a few blue-green blocks that will do nicely. Since there are a few people in line, I tell him to get the blue-green blocks while I go back to get a white one. I run back but it is much farther back than I thought.

Those girls are here. I can't find the block that I need. I walk all the way back to the end of the drop on the coaster that I started building. The girls giggle. I look at the coaster. I notice it is too small. I make plans in my mind to double it's size. The girls have some kind of firework. They set it ablaze and aim it my direction. I just walk away. Dream ends.
