Going on a cruise
I can only remember bits of this one. My husband and I were in a huge waiting area, we had signed up for a cruise and were waiting to be called up by an admin desk. We were finally called up. We discussed our purchase of a $292,000 car as part of our cruise deal. We were very excited about purchasing the car on the credit card the cruise line was offering; I even gave the admin guy a high-5 over it.
We were driving around the waiting area in a purple convertible made by Mercury. We came upon an older lady who we ended up trying to help; the car she just bought was stolen. We tried to help her retrace her steps, but were unable to solve anything.
We stopped in a place where I could see the cruise we would be going on through frosted glass. From what I could barely see there were pole dancers everywhere. I complained to my husband that we needed to go on a different cruise. We went back to the admin guy to discuss options only to be told that the only other cruise we could go on was another pole dancing cruise. I began to think about not going on the cruise at all.
Awakened by my son being plopped on me by my husband… errrrr. I would never spend that kind of money on a car….

Last night I dreamt I was at the funeral of my father-in-law (I actually did attend a few months ago). I kept finding myself at the front of the procession and had to keep pulling myself back. I could see his coffin from afar; it was open casket and he was dressed as I’d seen him in a picture taken when he was much younger. He also looked like a much younger man than when I’d last seen him
The procession disbanded and I was standing in a small room that was open to the rest of the church. The room was filled with flowers and cards. There were 2 large glass bowls on either side of the room. I knew I was supposed to put money in one of the bowls. When I pulled out my wallet I only had a $100 bill. What I wanted to do was put in the bill and get some change back. I dropped the money in and before I could pull out change I saw a bunch of people looking at me. So I clenched my teeth, smiled a grim smile and left the would-be change and the room.
It was time to eat. Attached to this church was also a restaurant with bright white walls and floors, and very dark furniture. I saw a few friends from high school. I asked if I could sit with them, and I didn’t get the impression that they really wanted me to sit there, but they said yes anyway. Dessert was being showcased at the table. What caught my eye was a strawberry pie with graham cracker crust and it was coated in chocolate. I requested it and it arrived so quickly that I didn’t feel any need to speak at the table. I woke up while in the middle of eating my delicious chocolate coated strawberry pie.
Awake: I thought it was weird to go to my father-in-law’s funeral with my spouse nowhere in sight. And that pie was so dang good!

Decided to start this blog ’cause of dreams that occurred the nights of 7/20-21/07. I don’t actually remember if I had any dreams last night, so I will start with those 2.
7/20–Seemed to be travelling on a bus for a long time with a girl I didn’t know. Sometimes the bus felt more like a travelling building. I was going out of town for work. Was supposed to be traveling to Washington Adventist University (I know WA is the name of a hospital, don’t know if there’s a college by the same name). When I looked out the window I saw desert landscape, much like in Arizona. Remember feeling upset when I saw the bus route; it was very, very curvy. The waiting seemed to last forever.
When the bus pulled in to my destination, it was running on train tracks. I could see N/S entrances to I-395. I got off the bus with the girl and we sat quietly in the noisy bus station. The girl said we would be leaving on the next bus at 9pm, it was 4pm. After waiting a bit, I vented about not driving, how much time I could’ve saved. The girl went on to tell me the bus is better, and she revealed that she had a car in town and how she hated driving it. I told her we were taking her car and that I was driving. I started driving us back towards home.
Awake: In hindsight, I remember thinking it might be cool to take the train to my next out of town meeting. Don’t know about that now. How crappy it must be to travel to a place and not even look at it.
7/21–Don’t remember too much from this one. Was walking around Banner Good Sam Med Ctr in Phoenix. Entered a white hallway, as I walked the ceiling started getting lower. Then floor was starting to angle up. Was forced to crawling. Then there was a long drop. A guy came up next to me, also crawling, turned and dropped feet first and continued on. I began to do the same; I fell on my knees, plopped my butt on the floor and cried.
Awake: One of my knees has been hurting on and off for the past 2 years, I should really see an orthopedist….
