Vacation

Dream 6/7/2016

On a trip to Florida, I discover an awkward secret about my father.

We've rented cabins on the beach. We're staying in the same cabin that my dad stayed in on his vacation not long ago. While sitting on a boulder in the front yard, a blonde girl approaches me. She's a local. Instantly, I recognize that she's the girl my dad's been sleeping with. My dad is in his late fifties. This girl looks younger than me. It can't be love, my dad's not that nice. Gold digger, definitely.

I avoid the girl and walk to the back of the cabin onto a deck overlooking the ocean. The ocean will be my therapy. The way in which the waves crash onto the sand, without a break, and the seagulls speaking their minds off in the distance, somehow brings me peace. But the sunset is my craving. Watching it go to sleep under the green waters is like watching a thousand romances. It warms my skin  Dream ends.

The Time Traveler

Dream 2/22/2016

I am in love with a girl named Beth.

The only issue is that she's eighteen years older than me. So I time travel back to where we would be about the same age. She is both a judge and a contestant on American Idol. I go and watch a taping of the show. When you're up on the stage it's so unbelievable, so unforgettable how they adore you. I watch her and fall more in love with each passing minute.

The show is then interrupted by a voice coming over the intercom. "Attention, ladies and gentlemen, we have just received information that a plane has hit the world trade center." Some ARMY guys are sitting in the row behind me. I can hear them saying, "no, no, it can't be true." Oh it is, I've been here before, I know it all too well. In a few more minutes, they're gonna come back on the intercom and tell you that the other tower has been struck by yet another airplane. Then, when you think it's all over, the voice would come on again telling you to pray for our country because the pentagon has been hit. We're under attack. The towers would fall, taking several other buildings with them, thousands would be dead, the country would be in a panic. You would question whether it was going to stop. Oh God, dear God, how did I time travel back to September 11, 2001. Why did I come back to this awful day.

I follow Beth outside. Her husband is there with her. I flirt with her. She doesn't seem to notice. Dream ends.

I wake up

AMERICAN PICKERS

Dream 10/9/2015

I've been put in charge of a garage full of antiques.

     The person that put me in charge is a picker. He travels around the country to buy antiques, then he refurbishes them and resells them. He is letting me live at his house for the time being.

     One night I am lying on my bed watching youtube videos when a beautiful girl comes into my room and lies down next to me. We watch videos together. She asks me if I want to learn electrical wiring. I do. She says that she will teach me. "You know about electric wiring?" I ask. She does. She gets up and leaves. A sad feeling comes over me. Dream ends.

O' My Love

Nightmare 2-20-14

I'm walking down a dirt road. I pass an open building where a king and one of his advisers are having a conversation. I keep walking. Just ahead of me is the love of my life. I don't know her yet but I will. 

We walk together back the way I came. She runs ahead of me. She is out of sight. I turn a corner. What I see before me in the town center starts my blood to boil. 

There is an open, four story house filled with people, including the king and his adviser. My love is dangling from a rope, not by her neck but her hands. Shes alive. Shes about four stories up. I start to climb the rope to rescue her.

Just as I begin, the executioner cuts the rope and we fall. I fall and gain a few bumps and bruises. My love falls four stories to her death. Overcome with grief, I run away. Dream ends.

I wake up.
