Rachel's Dreams

| I have my own interpretation for this one, but I'd like to see what others think before I give it. Ahem.
In the dream, Rich and Carol Young (Julie-Rose's dad and stepmom) owned this really beautiful, REALLY big house, and they had asked me and Jaron to house-sit for them over the weekend. The dream started with Jaron and I watching TV in a large bedroom with many doorways. We were snuggled in bed, it was late, and we were so warm and comfortable and happy and sleepy under the blankets. Suddenly it switched to three hours later, and we were just waking up when it was getting light outside. We lay in bed, admiring the big room with its pretty rug and the large windows, and then decided to get up and visit the bathroom before we went back to sleep for the rest of the morning. I guess we hadn't explored the house yet, because we were examining every room as we went towards the bathroom. All of the rooms were connected by many doorways, sort of how Fishy's mom's living room, dining room and bedroom are all inter-connected with more than one door. Only imagine, like, three doorways in every room. And the rooms were beautiful in a really earthy, simple way...they had pretty stone floors with fuzzy rugs on them, and that along with the high ceilings and huge windows and open space made it the perfect Rachel house. We noticed a lot of rooms in the house. There were tons and tons, and we were on the second story, so we knew there were tons and tons more below us. The rooms all had really high ceilings, almost two stories high, so the whole two-story house would have been about four stories. In the bedrooms, the beds were lofted up really high so that the entire floor space of the rooms could be used for dressers and couches and other "daytime" furniture. One of the bedrooms we walked into had had college students from GC staying in it over the years, and they had left a bunch of old GC shirts. I got really excited, and started looking for a canoe trip shirt from 2002, my freshman year trip which I "missed" (read: "skipped"). But I couldn't find one, and was disappointed. The dream ended with me finding the bathroom, and it too was beautiful with a stone floor and fuzzy rugs, three doorways and big windows. I was admiring the beauty of the house when I woke up. 1 Interpretations/Comments | Leave an Interpretation/Comment |

| Okay, I had the STRANGEST dream last night but it was actually really scary.
I had a dream that Jaron and I had Jake Russel over at my parents' house to hang out (except for some reason Jaron's parents lived there instead of mine...) There were some construction workers building something in the gullies across the road. We were sitting on the porch watching them. They ordered something from Dominoes, and the man that delivered it came in a huge white van, which we found odd. He handed off their order and then drove away. Now, somehow we knew that this man did not work for Dominoes and was delivering an explosive device in the delivery box he'd handed them. We saw him pull out a long gun as he was driving away, and then he went and parked at the top of the hill so he could shoot everyone from the neighborhood as they tried to escape after the explosion. Somehow the explosive device got transferred from the construction site to my neighbor's house. We realized we had to get out of there fast, because we didn't know how big the explosion would be. So we ran in and woke Jaron's parents, who were taking a nap, and tried to convince them that we had to run away into the gullies. Then we heard the explosion, and I ran outside ahead of everyone else. My neighbor's house was on fire, and I knew that because of their crazy sleep schedule, they might have been downstairs asleep in their basement and now unable to get out save through the small basement windows. I had to run to the house to help them out the window if I could. To get to the house, I had to cross a patch of open lawn without any trees, and I knew that the criminal in the Dominoes truck could see that patch of lawn from where he was parked, and probably had his gun trained on the area. But I ran across anyway, and luckily nothing happened. I went to help my neighbors out, but when I turned around I saw Jaron and his family running towards me, and they were just about to cross the open patch of lawn. They had no idea the van driver could see them from there. So I ran back towards them screaming for them to stop, but everyone was so confused and there was so much going on that Jaron didn't hear me and kept coming. Luckily neither of us got shot; I reached him and pushed us both out of the sights of the guy in the van. Then we had to decide how to get out of the neighborhood without the guy shooting us, since our only road exit was blocked. I was considering which direction through the gullies would provide the most cover while still getting us out QUICKLY, but then I woke up. 0 Interpretations/Comments | Leave an Interpretation/Comment |
