night 2 (july 29-30)

dream 1:

i'm me, but i'm also trying to be a police officer. i was leaving the station, holding a watermelon, when i get a text. there's another guy in the parking lot and he's on the phone. it's about a new case. i tell him to ask if they want me to come along. the chief, which is leonardo dicaprio, says no. i'm upset, because i think i could really help.

then i'm running in an airport. apparently i went along anyway. we catch two older people. the woman has a large rolling suitcase.

then i'm running down a basement hall and into a den. all the other police officers and the two older people are there, with the suitcase. apparently the older people (man and wife) have hidden their middle aged son's body in the suitcase to take somewhere. they thought they could get away with it.

the suitcase is opened, but instead the body is all mangled and crumpled, like a doll
s, and it's not the son's, but of a well known vampire, katherine. all the police officer's look at each other. one pulls out a large cannnon/gun and they stuff the body in there. someone presses a button and the roof splits apart revealing the night sky. someone aims and pulls the trigger, releasing the body into the sky. it hurdles thousands of feet away.

then i woke up. and went back to sleep.

dream 2:

i'm with my friend and her younger sister. we're bargain hunting for cute clothes. we go into the goodwill in franklin. they find tons of cute things in their sizes. but i cannot in mine. i try on this pair of north face shoes (note: they don't make them in reality. i think it was my dream's version of sperrys.) even though they're my size, they're too big.

then i'm in an aisle of walmart with a lot of my friends. still looking at hanging shoes (as opposed to being in boxes). everyone is talking about inception. the crowd is mixed. but everyone agrees they like the book of eli.

then i woke up.

night 1 (july 28-29)

i'm in a doctor's office in a hospital. i'm wearing the gowns and the bracelet.

i have the sense that i'm supposed to be somewhere else. i think my parents are there.

the doctor comes in holding scans/x-rays. he then tells me that i have a large tumor in my brain. at first, i'm shocked, but then i come to realize that it is something i've known for a long time... prolonged headaches, some short-term memory loss, hearing problems. (all things that i have experienced in real life at one point or another)

i step into the hallway to call some people before i go into surgery, someone calls my name, and i see this girl i was in a class with. sweet girl, and she's gained a lot of weight (in my dream only). she starts to ask why i'm there, but i look away.

then my alarm goes off and i wake up...

preface

if you've been my friend for any length of time, then at some point i have shared with you some sort of dream i have had. they are usually, very random and crazy, but i never make them up.

so i've decided to start recording them in hopes of one day figuring out why i dream what i dream.
