These days, I don't have very many dreams that I remember, but last night I had a really crazy one. Some of the dream stemmed from things that I've seen /things I've done / people I've talked to over the past few days, but some of it was just completely random.
So here we go.
I was going to Denver, Colorado with my friend Garet (Garet and I had a nice chat at church the other night, so I figure that's why he was in my dream). We get to this hotel and we walk in the doors, thinking they're the main doors, but they actually lead us straight into someone's room. We continue walking, feeling awkward but thinking "let's just walk through real fast, and they won't notice". We had to walk through 4 rooms before finally finding the lobby. We get to the lobby and Garet says he's going to go check in. Apparently the check-in desk was not in the lobby, because he's gone for the rest of the dream.
As I'm waiting, I see my friend Lauren walking down the stairs. Walking behind her is Sarah Palin, talking on her cell phone. My reaction is "Holy crap, what are the chances of Lauren and me being in the same hotel in a different state at the same time? And how cool is it that she's hanging out w/ Sarah Palin!" Lauren, however, seems completely unsurprised and remains very professional, standing by Sarah, holding her little clipboard. I follow them out to the parking lot where I ask her if I can get a picture w/ Sarah, and Lauren says "She's a very busy woman, I'm going to have to say no." Needless to say, I was pretty disappointed.
So then we jump to another segment, and this one actually happened in those moments right before it's time to wake up, when I'm half awake and half asleep. Last night I watched an episode of CSI where they found a girl, dead, who looked like she had literally been scared to death. She had her eyes wide open and her fists clenched over her chest. Anyway, this girl was in my dream...in that exact same position....only she was alive and she was very scared and freaked out. I'm not sure if I was a CSI person in this dream or what, but I was in her hospital room talking to her, trying to figure out what had happened to her. She's crying and very upset, and she says, through her tears, "I...was....having...PUPPIES!"
Yeah. And the funny part about this, is that I reacted like it was not unrealistic. Odd, but not impossible.
And that was when I woke up and realized I had slept 30 minutes later than I wanted to. :)
The end.
