I had a dream a couple nights ago that I had typed up on the notes app in my phone.. but hadn't had the time to sit and re-write it here.. and now I can't find it.. grrrr..
The only parts from that dream I can recollect now are something about being uncomfortable when realizing someone you are interested in has a wife and you are sitting right next to her for something.
Then either part of that same dream or having had woke up and had another in 2nd sleep - we were escaping something or someone.. we ran out to this school bus that was converted into an RV style camper.. there were something like 4 of us.. I had opened a drawer and grabbed knives to give to everyone to defend themselves from the this rabid type person that we were trying to escape... who apparently might have been hiding in the back of the bus.
I was in charge of driving.. and it was most difficult to drive because the steering wheel was a deflated bicycle tire... I remember going around curves in the freeway and trying to pull this rubber wheel though a pulley type system to avoid colliding with the cement median. And it didn't go very fast.. taking an uphill exit I really had to push the gas pedal to get it to go...

Manual Labor & the Mangled Mensa
The dream was very fluid.. but I can only remember fragments... it occurred in a second sleep which I am having the biggest struggle coming to full wake from.
I was back in my childhood home.. and Cath went out to check the mail... I was handed the bills to which I made some under the breath comment about others needing to do some work to help pay the bills so it doesn't all fall on me so that I can move out on my own. I felt guilty making that comment cause family should always come first before me.
With school starting back up I was going to stand in and so the work that Patrick was doing for his summer break... some manual type labor in some farming community. I was in a trailer getting dressed when the boss guy knocked on the door to see if I was ready. I came out and he was talking to Patrick who was walking to school... I told him to have a good day and was taken on a tour of the place following that. The farmer boss explained that these parts weren't considered the good parts of town.. I explained it mattered not to me for I treat everyone with the same respect.
Ended up in a smaller deli/diner where I was with 2 other older ladies... the one that was supposed to be the boss offered to pick up the tab for a cinnamon roll and a coke in a glass bottle... I don't like soda but felt it rude to decline her offer, especially given her scoffy response to my statement of not liking people who acted better than anyone else.
While waiting for the other ladies to finish I jumped on the back of a 4 tiered/4 person motorcycle that the farmer boss was manning... he was anxious and not up for waiting so he drove it around my current neighborhood which was quiet and had little traffic. I remember thinking .. this is my first time on a motorcycle and it doesn't feel as scary... until he started doing tricks... because there was no one on tier 2 and 3 and I was on the end.. I was getting whipped around and had to lift my feet during U-Turns in fear that they were going to be crushed against the sidewalk edge... at one point we were being pulled or somehow connected to an ambulance.. he lost control and dismounted leaving me to figure out what to do...
At this point I just remember standing there and things felt slow motion as this ambulance teetered back and forth straight towards me... I was frozen to move.. and then it collided with another car causing it to flip.... but then it landed up right.
I ran to the car to help... it was an older couple.. in their 70's or 80's... the male passenger was unconscious.. but his female partner was wide awake though very disoriented. I touched the male passenger to see if he was alive... he came to and leaped from the car completely unaware of what happened and apparently without any substantial injury. I ran over to the opposite side of the car to tend to the fragile lady. She was going on something about wanting one her booties or her mitten to be put back on... I didn't want to move her and said I'd be back with a stretcher which I had hoped to retrieve from this mangled ambulance... but it was too mangled... I could hear sirens in the distance. The ambulance was too mangled and I returned to her side to comfort her... I ended up scooping her up in my arms and retrieving her from the car... she couldn't have been more than 80 lbs this fragile bony lady... it was then the paramedics had arrived and were able to take and care for her properly.. one of the lady EMT's mentioned a rubber band the lady had been playing with on her fingers... she explained it was a way to comfort children of the wild and said it was associated with Mensa.

Sinking in Fragmented Latex Ice Holes
I fell through an iced over body of water that had very odd large pieces of ice that formed structures on top of the water. It was slow motion as I fell knowing I would break through the ice and sink into the freezing water. What I didn't expect was to continue sinking.. the impact didn't hurt considering the ice was thick... the water didn't even feel cold... a frozen with fear feeling transitioned into a calm serenity as I sank backwards underwater looking up towards the surface.

Found several holes in my latex suit including one that was in the same place as my friend pointed out on his.

Deadbeat Pull Up Fragment
I was with my mom and sister and we were... somewhere... I was carrying Parker when I noticed The Deadbeats were holding a concert - I walked with him over to where they were playing and we listened in. The singer recognized me as if we were good friends (at this point this is not the actual deadbeats, but some other group but in dream I knew them as The Deadbeats).
I had a guest mic in my hand and it had all of these buttons and settings and I was having spaz moments where I would touch a button and it would do something like open a garage door and disturb the show, or it would turn on and make a squelching sound.. all embarrassing as I was not doing this on purpose.. it was nothing I could control.. it was impulsive like telling a kid not to push a button.. of course they are going to push it.
They had a contest... and it involved other members of the audience taking 3 persons sets of keys... this guy from HS James, had taken mine... he was a year ahead of me and didn't remember me... until I told him who I was.. he gave me back my keys with a hug... he towered over me and had more body mass than his stick-like self from when he was in HS. I won this contest, but felt as though it was because I had some how knew part of the band.
Flash to the backside of the hotel or housing that accompanied this fairground or whatever it was we were on... I was able to do pull ups on the wall with little effort..
Inside, one of the members came to sit down and found this bullet on the floor .. asked what it was for... I flashed to an earlier memory of someone choosing between that and something else to drink or eat... in the here and now, the person asking picked up the bullet and drank from it... "ahhh syrup!" he said.
That's all I can remember.... there was another dream before this that I told myself I should jot down knowing I'd forget once I fell back asleep... and of course.. that's what happened.

Unclear Fuzzy Frozen Future
There was shopping store racks of clothing out in a desolate field.. there was also an abandoned car that the group I was with was hoping would run so we can move to another part and try to find other life. Seems like we had found the keys but the owner showed up. fuzzy.

I was walking through a hospital in Seattle... I was trying to find the most convenient exit so that I could get over to our First Hill apartment. Carolyn, the landlord, came to collect the rent on the abandoned apartment... I was paying the rent there even though Ian hadn't lived there in years... I walked inside and it was freezing... the piped heating wasn't able to keep up with the intense cold.
Ian showed, and I wasn't surprised... again completely unaware of reality it just felt as though I hadn't seen him for a long time. There was nothing much left in this apartment... we left and went to a house that was in the Queen Anne district... it was a small house and I was paying rent here too... I told him he was more than welcome to stay... this house was comfortable and warm in contrast to our old apartment... he was laying on the couch and called me over... I laid down next to him and he just hugged me.. at minimum he was going to stay the night... but the future felt unclear.
