Dream

My arrogant nephew decided to treat me like a bad mom just because I wouldn’t give my son another glass of chocolate milk after he just had one. He went and poured a whole glass, which I had to take from him. He took the gallon of chocolate milk over to the table, and slammed it down, drowning his mother with it who was also at the table. When I got the gallon back, I went to pour the chocolate milk in the glass back into the jug. Nephew comes up behind me, tries to splash me with the contents of the glass, but I manage to aim it towards him as it spills. Nephew’s mother tells me I’m being childish and says that I splashed nephew out of spite. Typical behavior on her part. She tries to force me to apologize, so me being the smartass that I am, told him “I’m sorry that you have anger issues and don’t know how to butt out of business that isn’t yours. I’m sorry that your actions ended up backfiring on you not just once, but twice. And I’m sorry that your mom is too far in denial about your behavior to parent and discipline it and only enables it.” Sister gave me a death glare the entire time as though I was being a smartass out of spite because I was “wrong”.

Dream

I was in the wrong lane trying to make a turn and experiencing frustration when another driver didn't let me in and acted as if she was scolding me because it is my issue that I made a mistake. Next I was sharing a sandwich with my son Aaron. Then there was a matter of a tent and we were camping in the woods whereby the original tent size was expanded much larger so that it could accommodate more people. I was unaware of its ability to be expanded. Next there was vivid imagery of traveling through the green pastures whereby there was black Angus cows eating. This was coupled with my desire to be a cowboy and to have owned a spread just like that. Finally I was taking my former girlfriend's mother's pet, Sophie, who was balancing a ball inside and outside a pet store.

Dream

I dreamt I was admitted to hospital for mental health in a ward with only thing fabric pull around curtains around the beds for privacy, meaning in my country it's a free government hospital instead of private. Another patient arrived shortly after me and moved my belongings to the bed right next to the shared bathroom. I was disgusted by this and complained to a member of staff who happened to be my favourite actress who I also have a crush on, Natasha Lyonne. She told me not to worry and I would be allocated another bed soon. I then had my photo and name taken and printed onto a sticker to add as a name tag. My dad, who has dementia and is in a care home suddenly appeared to comfort me and told me everything was going to be ok. I took my medication which was valium and rested on the bed. Suddenly the ward became really busy and I saw lots of trolley beds being pushed frantically next to the double doors next to my bed. I struggle with various mental health issues in daily life and wondered if this was connected in any way. I'm even prescribed the same medication as in my dream.

Dream

My family and some family friends had rented a vacation house and we were all having a fun talent show. I was in charge of playing the music from my phone for everyone’s talent acts, and my friend was doing a really cool performance, but my younger brother kept interrupting and trying to steal the spotlight. I noticed that we were all younger than we currently are, my brother being a child and myself a teenager. I told my brother he was being rude and to let my friend finish his act, but my friend decided he was done and to let the next person go. I was trying to look up music for the next act, but suddenly my music app stopped working and was only displaying a government alert message. I tried to switch to a different app to see if that would work, but to my horror, all it was playing was video after video of parents giving their children merciful deaths. I began to freak out internally, but was able to calmly ask if anyone else’s phone was experiencing the same issues. Everyone took out their phones and what was happening on mine was true for every other phone in the house. At this point people were beginning to panic, and I suggested we look outside to see if the people out there were also panicking. The people outside looked like the were oblivious at first, and then slowly, one by one, they all began to notice the disturbing messages, too. Everyone in the house began panicking again, and some of us kids went out to the barn to try and come up with ideas of what we should do. As we were in the barn brainstorming, loud trucks approached and people outside began screaming. Some women and girls all ran into the barn, many of them missing their shirts, and some of my friends began to hide. I ran out the back door of the barn and across the field as fast as I could. I came to a creek and had the idea to walk upstream in the water, so my scent would be washed away in the event that dogs were used to try and find me. Eventually I came to a house that had a couple of horses outside. I initially was going to steal a horse to get away faster, but ultimately decided against it because a horse would be easier to spot that I would if I were on foot. I tried to sneak into the house to steal some supplies, but realized the people living there were in the side of the government and were holding people prisoner to turn in to the authorities. I tried to hide from them under the porch with some others that had escaped. Suddenly, I heard a terrible growling noise, and the other people I was hiding with under the porch became terrified. I noticed a broken piece of plywood, and attempted to hide beneath it. Whatever animal was making the growling noise found us, but I couldn’t see it from my hiding place. I listened in fear as the others j had been hiding with were ripped apart. The creature attacking us eventually came and was standing on the plywood I was hiding beneath, trying to rip through it to get to me. That’s when I woke up.

Escaping

Dream

it's an election year and candidates are performing and voters are spreading propaganda for their respective parties. trump one of them and is set to speak at a big venue nearby. for some reason we're being targeted by hitmen, i guess because me and my friend plan on speaking out against him or or otherwise exposing trump. after narrowly escaping multiple times through disguises and fights we make it into the city incognito and hatch a plan to get inside to potentially lure the hired mercenaries to try and attack in public. it works as we thought and the hitmen are arrested while trump and crew are ushered out quickly to boost and yelling even from his own people. dream shifts to my dads house where i'm upstairs cooking as directed by my grandmother for family dinner. i'm struggling to find good music to give fun summer vibes that are appropriate for my little siblings that might hear. i get to a point where i can set a timer and step away from the stove to add songs to the cue and my stepmother, as usual, offers passive aggressive commentary so i ignore her and talk to my slightly younger brother marcus. he changed his number and is trying to help me switch it because im having issues lol. the timer goes off randomly so i rush to make sure nothing is burned by my grandma has already moved the pots off the heat and all that's really left for me to do is mix the cooked ingredients and serve. it smells delicious and i finally get the music i want to play on the tv but at this point my youngest brother wants me to help him get a show on his laptop but the software is acting up. i direct him to dad so i can sit down and eat. i hear him tell lucas (my youngest brother) to basically make it unfixable so he can convince his wife/my stepmom/lucas' mom that they have to buy a new one instead of slapping another bandaid on it.

Dream

I dreamed that I was dating this guy. It is a newer relationship so I don’t know him that well. My sister and I go to this lady’s house to pay something similar to a parking ticket/speeding ticket. It’s a run down place but it’s like a place that is free for lower income people to eat and pay their tickets/take some kind of course that lowers their ticket amount (like traffic school). I complete one round but as I am leaving, I remember that I forgot my phone inside and I had actually taken the phone of the person inside. I am not sure how I made that switch because the phone was super blocky and mine was an iPhone lol. I switch it out inside and then leave with my sister. A little while later I go back to complete the same process. I guess I had gotten another ticket. This time is weirder than the first but I can’t remember why. When I leave, I am no longer in my home town, but in the suburbs of vegas. My new boyfriend comes to pick me up. I ask him to take me home and he says he will but I notice he starts getting on the freeway to go to Arizona. I decide to play it chill. Once we get to New Mexico I start to freak out internally but I keep a calm demener because I realize he has full control and I’ll have more leverage if he thinks I’m into it. We make it to Dallas Texas and I haven’t texted anyone but I know my sister has my location. We arrive at a run down house near the city. We go in and are greeted warmly by a few people. A few others ignore use. My boyfriend leaves for a minute and I explore the house. I try to get into the kitchen but there is a doggy gate. I can open it but closing it again is a real issue. A man in the house tells me not to worry about it but I insist because I do not want to piss off the woman who owns the house. I still don’t know why I am here. I finally get the gate to work and I run into a woman around my age. She has a conversation with me and I feel safe around her. I suddenly decide to walk out the front door and start exploring Dallas on my own. Within minutes one of the guys from the house is following me. I am not afraid but I am confused as to why he isn’t saying anything. Then the woman shows up and she says it’s not safe to walk around alone. She has a man with her too. I realize shit is about to go down but I keep it together. Then the two men start to drink mine and this woman’s blood from our necks like vampires! It doesn’t hurt but I am so confused. We walk back and I rejoin with my boyfriend. I ask him where he’s been and he appears worried that I went out of the house. Then I wake up.

Dream

In real life, my friend decided to part ways with me, and her name is Carole. She was my best friend. Well, also in real life, I didn't like hanging out with her very much. And when she would want to hang out with me, I became annoyed. It seemed like maybe it happened too often, or... Well, the real issue is, when people love me, I don't like them because I don't love myself. Okay, so here's the dream. I had this dream that Carole and my friend Kite, who also doesn't really talk to me, and myself, we all went to this fun station where there was laser tag and movies and pizza. But for some reason, Kite was behind the counter serving pizza. And there was also roller skating. Carole, I saw her, and we didn't really say many words. So later, Carole's mom calls my little brother's phone to ask how things went, and both of us were silent. Because we really didn't say any words to each other. And so, it was just like, kind of, it was kind of funny for a moment. And then things were a little better, you know, after they were awkward and then they were funny. But, well, that's pretty much it.

So started out I was with the cast of friends and we were in an airport leaving Paris. Chandler was worried about the hotel bill that had come out to $5,000. We said we’d all split it. Then for whatever reason I didn’t leave with them. I stayed in Paris. It was night time. I went to a woman’s apartment. She was some kind of student. Her dad & uncle were looking for her and showed up shortly after I arrived but she left to go somewhere. I went to look for her at an opera house but by the time I got there the performance was over. So I headed back to the apartment to wait. No one was there yet. I sat at a table and then her uncle showed up and then let me know they thought my roommate was planning to kill me. Then she showed back up with her father. She seemed to be on a mission and he was pleading with her to get her to come to her sisters delivery. Her sister was apparently going into labor. We all sat down with her and convinced her to go to the hospital to be there with her sister. We then addressed the issue of if she was planning to kill me and she admitted to it. That she was testing out a contraption that was actually hung over our head. A candle was set to burn a string and release a rock to hit us in the head. And her plan was to kill us all in this way. I guess because we were annoying her. But then she said she wouldn’t be doing now. I guess because we had gotten through to her about her sister. She disabled the rather amateurly made contraption. Then she and her father and uncle headed off to the hospital. I left for work, where I had a big corner office overlooking the ocean and city. I spoke to a male subordinate but I don’t recall what about but I recall him asking me to dinner. The end
