The storm that wouldn't with the play that shouldn't be
I had a dream last night that Rachel, Holly, Mom, Dad and I were in the basement of my home in Edwardsville, IL waiting for a severe thunderstorm to hit. This storm was capable of producing tornadoes. I started to grab chairs and mattresses to get under, but Holly was telling me that she'd heard from someone that this doesn't work. The items are thrown around so hard, that they'll just rip through the mattress/chair/whatever else. I thought "What other choice do I have" and decided I was going to go through with it anyway.

Time passed and I stopped believing the storm was going to come. So I went to a hardware store to get some things. Everyone decided to stay at home. I started sneaking around the grocery store, hiding from someone...I left the store and ended up at Sharon Christian School. Holly was there, and we were in the front pew watching a video on someone's ipod. I asked about the video, and she started to explain that it was a video Eminem had made. I suddenly remembered the video and said, "Oh, you mean the one with Dr. Dre?" She began to inquire how I knew this, when suddenly, Conan O Brian ended up in the video. "What's he doing there?" we both thought.

In the next part of my dream, my family and I went to a questionable play at Sharon Christian School. It started out with Marcel Marceau performing a mime routine while he was naked. Mom complained that she could see something, and I told her that that was the nature of the show. I further explained that the last show I went to had a nude girl doing some routine with candles. During the show, Holly began smoking. The room suddenly became dark with only the two chairs we were sitting in to fill it. I told her it was a nasty habit and she should quit. She told me that she wanted to, it was her decision, and it was none of my business. I was annoyed, but there was nothing I could do about it.

Playing the stock market
I had a dream last night wherein the CAT went up to 45 dollars a share. I sold short, expecting the CAT to go down by 5% or so, so that I could buy stock in it again. I saw a chart which some expert had made to predict the future of stocks and was basing my decision on this, because the chart had been quite accurate in the past in predicting which stocks would rise and fall. The actual line of how stocks rose or fell was superimposed on the chart, and matched it almost flawlessly. I saw also that I should hold onto the GOOG, because it was about to jump in leaps and bounds...

So is it a prediction of how the stock market will pan out in the future, or my own personal thoughts on the frustration of trying to be a market timer? You decide...

Round in circles, the gophers, and the car within a car
Alright, as with every dream, I KNOW there was more to it, and I lost it with SECONDS of waking up...but here is what I remember...

I had this dream where I was driving to some destination, and the road went straight into a church/warehouse building. I had to slow down and it curved around booths and people and what-not. The road curved to the left, and went through another building. It kept curving again, and I saw yet another building. I went through it, and thought about how much it looked like the first building. To make sure, I looked for the second building, and sure enough I went through it again. I realized I was going in circles, and that I needed to find some offshoot to get out of this loop.

Later in this dream, I was trying to get back at somebody (an unnamed someone), so I kept swapping their clothes with wet clothes and throwing away their nice clothes.

In reality I woke up for a quick restroom break, went back to sleep, and had this dream...

I was at an airport, and all kinds of friends, family, and college students, some of whom I knew, were arriving. I distinctly remember Rachel, Holly, and Jendy being there. Then I dreamed that...

My friend Brad Bafford dared me to explore this dangerous hole on my parent's land that it seems not many people come back from. I didn't quite believe him, so I took a team to explore it. I did, however, believe him enough to know that, perhaps, something bad was going to happen. Our team tied ropes around ourselves and were gently lowered into what must half been a 30 foot hole, about 20 feet in diameter. We stopped halfway down standing side-by-side on this ledge we found. Down in the hole there was a bunch of junk, and there seemed to be some sign of life/movement. One of our team was lowered down to explore. They found something they didn't like, and they were slowly, and with some difficulty, lifted back up. Then a red-head next to me said, "Well, I'm going to see what this is all about," and jumped right into the hole. She stirred up some gophers which she immediately found out were rabid and dangerous (clost to as dangerous as the bunny in "Monty Python and the Holy Grail") She began running, along with the rest of the team (somehow managing to run out of the hole), and the gophers began chasing us. They took out one of us, and they started after me. I made a beeline for Phyllis's house, and one caught up to me. I think I woke up just after this...

And for my last dream, I had another recommendation from Brad Bafford to explore this car of his that was sitting in the Overstreet's ( a family we know) lawn. I had the feeling that I would find something funny in there. Sure enough I found a notebook that was full of inside jokes, that were about me (I think). I explored the car further and noticed that there was another car inside of this car. I crawled up into it through the trunk (it's headlights were angled upwards) and found a booklet on the floor in the backseat. I rifled through it, and noticed that it was an Entity Relationship Diagram. I quickly noted that it was no database I had ever worked on. But I began wondering what it was that Brad was working on...

And that is the end of my odd set of dreams. Any thoughts?
