Lost My Kitty Dream...and Psycho Stabber?

Yesterday I dreamed that I was at my parents' house - except in the dream my parents lived in a grocery store. I remember going to the freezer case to grab a desert and then putting it back because it would "spoil my supper". I brought my one cat, Bella, and locked her up in the garage with my mom's cat. I decided to let them out to run around the house. What I didn't know was that when you open the door to the garage, the large garage door also opened up. When I did, both of the cats got out and I couldn't find them. I was so sad. It was woods right outside the door. I found a pen of kittens in the woods. I thought maybe she got in the pen with them. I saw one that looked just like her, but when I picked it up it was actually a stuffed animal with pink gem eyes. There was a baseball game going on and everyone heard me yelling "Bella!" and I hoped everyone would help me find my kitten.

Last night I dreamed about some guy named "Grossi". Not sure if it was a last name or a nickname. Anyway, he was crazy. He came into some public place where I and other people were with a large knife. He was going to come around and stab me in the back, but I turned around and backed up in time to avoid it. Then he threw the knife at someone else. I couldn't run. I felt like I was almost paralyzed or something - I could duck and move, but not do anything fast. I also remember trying to find someone's apartment with my husband, but I went up the wrong staircase and it came to a dead end. I've had at least three dreams where I was walking up a flight of steps that came to a dead end. It just went straight into a wall and you couldn't go anything further. I wonder what that means. I feel like repetitive dreams like that usually have some underlying meaning to them.

Creepy Rape Dream

This morning I woke up to a creepy dream that I got raped. I guess I was at some concert or bar listening to a band with my mom. There were these two guys hanging out in the same area as we were and they kept watching us. I got really drunk and someone showed me to my hotel room where I was to sleep alone. As soon as I fell asleep these two guys somehow got into the room and raped me. I didn't tell anyone for a week. When I finally told my parents and my husband, they didn't believe me. Actually, my dad was incredibly pissed at me because I got raped and my mom wouldn't believe me. I was crying and upset and couldn't understand why everyone was mad at me.

Dream about Cancun

Yesterday I dreamed that I was in Cancun (I think - somewhere in Mexico) with my parents at a hotel. I looked out the window and the hotel was surrounded by ocean. It was like it was built out in the ocean. The water was very dark blue and aqua. They had some kinds of lights on the ocean bed that projected images up through the water. They had spiders and a big sun images appearing on the ocean when I looked out. Then we went to the beach and some man was flying a kite. A lot bunch of celebration ballons were in the air (the foil ballons you give people for "Get Well" and so forth). They had a mind of there own apparently and all floated towards the kite like they had a mind of there own in my dream. It was like they were birds.

Dream about Someone in the House

I had one of those dreams I just hate last night - the paralysis dream. You have a feeling you're dreaming, but you can't wake up. I dreamed that someone was in the house while I was sleeping. It sounded like they were rifling through my silverware/knife drawer, and I heard their voices. I wanted to wake myself up to make sure I wasn't actually hearing that in reality, but couldn't do it - I was paralyzed. It seemed like forever before I was finally awake and realized it was just a dream and that nobody actually was in the house.

Dream about Style Show

Last nighted I dreamed my husband and I were in this huge auditorium with a ton of other people, or maybe it was a church. We were in the audience about to watch a fashion show. Just as it was starting, I realized that I was supposed to be IN the fashion show, not in the audience, so I jumped up to try to get backstage. (That part made sense because I am going to be in a fashion show this weekend.) I couldn't find backstage. I went up all of these staircases trying to find it, but when I got to the top, it just went straight into a wall. So I'd go back down and try a different set of stairs and they all went no where. I remember walking past a nurse's office - I felt like I was in the 50s or something - she had one of the old really huge weird hats that nurses used to wear. Somehow I finally found the backstage. Karen, the president of the board of directors at the symphony where I work, was there and all ready to put on my makeup. But instead of makeup, she was actually going to put a makeup mask on me - like the ones you wear just over your eyes for a costume party, except painted on with makeup. It was green and copper and black. Just as she was about to start, I woke up.

Dream about Karaoke

Last night I had a dream that I was in some type of performance with the rest of the calendar girls (in real life, I am a calendar girl, along with 11 other girls, for a local radio station). We all were at a bar or something and had to either sing karaoke or lip sync. Well, I thought lip-syncing would be totally cheesy, so I wanted to karaoke. I was the second girl up. The first girl went out and sang a Fiona Apple song, which was the song I was going to sing, so I was really pissed. I remember that the girls were bitchy and I felt like I was in high school or on The Bachelor or something.

Shopping Dream

Had another dream last night, which was wierd because I went to bed drunk off my ass and I usually don't dream on those nights. I remember shopping at some very expensive clothing store with my husband. He wanted to buy some shoes. I was looking at the Clearance stuff. The clearance stuff was marked down to like $7. I remember all of the different clothes I looked at. My brain made up some pretty weird-looking blouses and so forth. It was all very flashy. And the I got neat hair clips and hair pins and created this awesome hairdo (well, in my dream it was awesome). I had ribbons and pom-poms all through my hair. So weird. In my dream I just loved it. In reality, my head looked like a Christmas tree.

Stupid Dream During My Nap Today

This one is really dumb, but I'll put it in here anyway. I just dreamed that I was at some old couple's house. They had this peach and yellow afghan that I crocheted, except it was really weird because it wasn't completely sewn together - it was sort of half done. Anyway, they loved it in the dream. They wanted a new one or something - they were trying to describe what they wanted to me but I couldn't understand what they were saying. It was like that were retarded or foreign or 'low talkers' (like on Seinfeld). I remember the old guy's name was Mr. Azhall (pronounced almost like Asshole).

More cop/partying dreams...

It's so wierd to have another 'cop busting my party' dream so soon - considering I just had one last week. But anyway, there was me and some unidentified girl in the dream that was my friend, I guess. It's so crazy that your mind can create this new person in your dream and you can remember exactly how they looked, but it's someone you've never seen. It really blows my mind. Anyway, she was about my size and had long brown hair. She lived in a trailer park - a green and white trailer actually. We were going to join a group of other people to party. Just as we were stepping out onto the porch/balcony to leave, we saw guys running out of two houses next door (the houses we were going to party at!) with cops running after them and clubbing them down Rodney-King-style. I remember there were also shots fired. My friend and I just looked at each other and turned right around and went back inside as if to silenty say, "OK - change of plans - let's not go over there and party". Well, a couple of our friends from next store snuck away from the cops. They came over through the window of the house we were in with a bag of reefer. I could swear the one guy was Bret Michaels of Poison, which is totally fucked up - I mean I just had a dream with CC Deville in it a couple of nights ago and it's not like I think about Poison all that often (at least not since I was 12). So fucked up how the mind works. ANYWAY, we proceeded to smoke this gigantic bud out of some wierd plastic bottle. The other guy with "Bret" was an old stoner I used to go to high school with (and actually my ex-boyfriend my 6th grade, Mark). It was such a wierd dream. But aren't they all? My mind is always blown away when I wake up with a lucid dream in my head. It's amazing to me that your mind can be at its absolute peak of creativity when you're asleep. That's why I started keeping this blog to record my dreams. So many interesting dreams have been so lucid upon waking up and then within a few days they're completely slipped through my fingers.

Cellist Dream and C.C. Deville?

On Saturday, during a nap, I had a dream that my husband insisted I was having an affair with the principal cellist at the symphony where I work. I insisted that I wasn't. However, I don't know if in the dream I was or wasn't. Hmmm...I never actually met the guy.

Last night I also dreamed that I met CC Deville of Poison at a bar. No details to report - I can't remember anything else except that I met him.
