I've been having a very lot of strange dreams lately. And for all the dream interpretation I've picked up over the years (not anything I really pursued.. just flipped through a few books at the library once, had to do a chapter on it in psychology, and my twin brother got VERY into Lucid Dreaming which did somewhat involve interpretation though the key was more remembering them 'till you could realize you were dreaming and from there getting to control them) I can't find a single relevant factor (water, locks, etc) about any of my dreams. That is, there are things featured in them, but nothing relevant.
Last night, I apparently drove down to Wake Forest University (where I was last weekend for the concert, as I blogged a teensy bit on earlier) to tell the folks there I wanted to work at a concert they were having in a few weeks. So, why I would drive well over two hours just to tell them (and try to convince them, apparently) that I wanted to work there is beyond me. Anyway, I did. And so I get to WFU and drop my stuff off in the room of some people I apparently knew there.. I don't remember what this room was like before the meeting, but it was almost as though I lived there. Then, I drive over to some place offcampus (or maybe the room was also offcampus? I think it was in a hotel or some such.) and park my car in a big lot. I run into my friend, Thor (who lives here.. yet in this dream was going to WFU) who explains that I can take the city bus to campus, which he's about to do. So I get on with him and ask them where the best stop is closest to where the place was that my meeting would be. (That was a confusing sentence.) And Thor decides to go to the meeting with me, and we get off, and we go to this meeting. I try to convince the people to let me work at this concert by telling them about the other concerts I've worked at and why I want to work this one and everything, and they basically seem very resistant to saying yes. I don't remember if they actually give me an answer .. I think it was left at "we'll contact you" or some such.
Thor and I leave and get back on the bus. During this ride, I realize that I've missed both of the classes I have on Fridays which is bad because I've already missed one and I have a court date (to not have a ticket) coming up in a couple of weeks which means that'll be three absences in each of these classes, which means I can't be absent anymore the rest of the semester.
And then I get off the bus and walk over to my car.. but I see some friends and decide instead that since I've already missed my classes, I may as well stick around and talk.
We all go to a picnic table next to a guard rail and we talk for a while. At some point, I stand up on the table and look down to see that there's a joint on the table. I think about stomping on it and kicking it away or otherwise disposing of it, but the dream moves right along before I actually take action. I look at some of my friends and say or think something very significant that I can't remember when I wake up. And then I go back to the room place to get my stuff so I can come home, and the girls that lived in the room were talking about some really bizarre stuff I won't post. I pick up my backpack and whatever else I may've brought with me, and realize I don't have my ringwatch on. How am I supposed to know if I'll make it back before dark without my ring watch? So I look on the floor and there's a ringwatch, but it's not mine. Mine has a light purple covering, where this one was magenta. And the band was darker silver, and thinner. But I put it on anyway and justify it by saying that they'll have my watch and I can trade back to them for it later. 'Sides, it wasn't either of those girls', and no one else was staying there. Then I get ready to go back to my car and I guess this is when I woke up.
Hmm..
