Black and White and Fall ...

I dreamed at first I was at work, and Joe had taken out a lot of clutter and installed black and white tile in the office, and a cooler, the kind like you see in convenience stores with soda. It was so much roomier and brighter with the improvement. There was some visible dirt and debris on the floor and I began sweeping it up. Joe came in and fussed at me because I was sweeping and not working but I showed him how dirty the floor was and he let me keep sweeping. Susan was there and I was so excited about the change in the office. Then I went to the ladies room and Susan came running in telling me Jeff was there. He was suddenly outside the stall door and there was a very bright light behind him making it hard for me to see him. I pretended to be happy to see him and tried to hug him but he was very angry. He’d brought several dozen people with him for some kind of ‘intervention’. They were all outside and outside it was bright and a fall day as the trees were red-leafed and the leaves were falling.



They just milled around a while, some came inside to look at the office, and eventually they went away and he did too. Mother was in there somewhere, trying to hide from Jeff. I told her after a while it was alright she could come out now he was gone and we’d won.

Another Marriage ... Canals

I dreamed I met and married a rather rotund guy. The only reason
I did it was because he had a job and insurance, and I knew he'd
take care of me. I left him to go to work and I was to meet him
somewhere around the town we lived in and instead of driving to
where he was I had to walk through a series of canals that ringed
the city. In some places the canals were quite deep and I was
swimming, but it all seemed perfectly normal, albeit irritating
because it was tedious and slow. The town didn't look like any
place I've ever lived or seen, the man resembled someone I dated
briefly once. I woke when I started having to swim rather than
wade the canals.

Abandoned House, Faces, Attack ...

I dreamt I was visiting a house or I was in the yard of a house I lived in, on a very grassy yard. Next door was a house that was apparently abandoned. It was night, and in the abandoned house you could see people walking around with flashlights. “Infiltrators,” I thought to myself. Then it was light, and I could see faces peeking out a large, intact, boarded up window on the side of the house. I don’t know why, but suddenly there were some young men around me, and they attacked me, I think they thought I was part of the group that had infiltrated the house the night before. I got over the attack and I guess I’d been driving. But suddenly I was standing on a highway, like the one I drive on coming to and leaving work (I work in the wooded country) and I was standing beside my car, there was a bus blocking my way. It reminded me of the Partridge Family bus in size (dating myself here) and was purple, yellow and white. A couple of the young men appeared and I apprehensively asked ‘what are you going to do to me?’ and one of them smiled and patted the bus. Don’t know if there were more people on the bus or if they planned on running me over with the bus or what. Then my beagle had a seizure and I woke up.
