Oh man, I'm stressed out. I had a weird dream this morning.

I dreamed that my husband and I were at this resort casino type hotel with his mom and aunt, and another female relative I didn't know. We were in an arcade, and we were all playing games. I started playing something, and then realized that everyone else had wandered off, leaving me alone. Then I saw that my husband left a whole pile of clothes near me, and I was immediately pissed that I had to carry his extra clothes around with me.

I looked around for him, all the while stopping here and there to play games, including one that had something to do with pushing quarters all over the place, and something to do with RC helicopters.

Finally, I see my husband, and he's playing a game surrounded by a huge crowd, with this redheaded chick hanging all over him. So I go up to him, and say, "Who the fuck is she?" And she says, "Who the fuck are you?" And I ask, "Didn't you tell her I'm your wife?" And she was like, "Your wife?" She was getting really pissed off, and I said, "I guess he didn't tell you he has three kids, either?" So she gets all pissed and storms off, and my husband and I get into a huge fight, which basically is me telling him to find his own hotel room.

So, I'm so pissed off, and I walk away, and I'm wandering around trying to find my hotel room, and I'm starving, and it's really late at night and I'm exhausted. I finally find an elevator, and there are dozens of people waiting to get on. When I finally get on, there's all this snack food in piles all over the elevator, and I realize this is part of the free buffet I remember seeing advertised.

Then I finally find another buffet, but everything just looks like disgustingly rich desserts. I mean there's blueberry muffins, but they're covered in Blueberry cream frosting, there's chocolate, and coffee cake, and all I want is some real food. I finally find the front desk and ask them if there is any real food to be had and they give me a number to call, and tell me to go call from my room. Then I remember I can't find my room, and I'm freaking out, and the sun was coming up, so I realized I'd been up all night wandering around.

January 30, 2012 Nap

So, I woke up from my nap laughing.

I had a dream that I worked in this office building that had no windows. I worked in an interior office with a few other people.

I knew I had to send my grandma a package, and I can't remember what one item I really needed to send her, but for some reason I packed it in a box full of sex toys.

Then, I was dreaming about moving, and having to take all my medication with me. I had all the bottles, but I opened each one, and they all had the wrong pills in them, and they were all mixed up. Then I found these pills that looked like thick blue flowers, and they looked like maybe they would fizz in water, so I thought maybe they were some sort of antacid, and then I realized they were clothes dye for the washing machine.

Then suddenly Fox's Pack N Play was in the office and he was in it, and all of my pills (and the clothes dye) were all spread around in the bottom of it, and I was freaking out that he was going to swallow them.

Then there was some sort of office function, and when we walked out of the office building, we were in the middle of a cheesy amusement park.

I walked around the amusement park for a while, and then decided to go back to work. As I was walking, I passed a ride that looked like the submarine ride at Disneyland, but it had boats floating on it, and I was shocked to see that one boat (which could have held like 50 people) only had 1 family in it, and the children were up running around like wild people, and I was afraid they'd fall in.

Then the next ride was also a kind of a boat ride, but each car was like 4 little one person cars attached to each other. Then I noticed there was a little girl in one of the cars, and the car was mostly submerged in water, and the little girl was spitting water out, as it hit her in the face.

I initially thought the ride was broken, but I kept walking, and saw the adults in the next car also submerged. I wondered aloud, "Why would anyone want to ride this ride?" and I didn't realize my boss was behind me and he was the owner of the amusement park and I didn't want to offend him, so I said, "I could see the attraction if it was a hot day, it would feel really good."

So, I get back to the office and I open the door, and there's this long sloping hallway I have to walk down and the lights are off, so I turn on the lights and I see my favorite waiter bending one of my co-workers over a desk, so I hurry around a corner, but then I peak back and see who it is, and I know in my dream that I've walked in on them before, so I apologize to them, and hurry to my office. I'm startled because one of my coworkers are in there, and he explains everyone left for the amusement park and turned off the lights, but he was still there working.

So, I tell him what I saw, and he tells me it's impossible because my friends Candace and some other chick I don't know, but I know in the dream, and I suddenly hear Candace talking, and I'm very confused.

Then the other chick comes in and starts talking to us, and it's like she's my friend, but I have no idea who she was.

I had some strange dreams last night about Vampires and Werewolves, and not the sparkly or sexy kind. These vampires were ruthless—like disemboweling ruthless.

I had a dream about trying to get out of a parking structure, while the vampires were killing most of the other people in there, and we made it to some sort of convenience store, where the clerk was able to somehow manage to save us, by convincing a vampire that he wouldn't want to hurt us. Then we found out she was a werewolf, so I couldn't figure out why the vampire didn't kill her, because they were mortal enemies.

I don't remember much more, except for a lot of running, and really graphic, violent death.

I had some weird dreams last night. There was a lot about working in an office, and being worried I was going to be late for something.

There was the awesome mall food court that I dream of regularly that has tons of amazing pastries and all sorts of different foods.

Last night it was something specific, but I can't remember what now, but we were going between two different kiosks to compare the product.

Then we went to a beach to listen to one of our friends do a reading. It was the Indian doctor from Heroes, but in my dream he was a Muslim, and he was giving this long talk, and we were all a little afraid that crazy conservative Christians would try to assassinate him.

Sticking out of the water was the head of a whale, and it appeared dead.

As we all turned to leave the beach, you could see this giant whale tail, and I realized that it was the tail belonging to the head in the water.

Then I looked down, and realized I was walking over bones, and it was a huge whale skeleton.

That's the last thing I remember.

So I had some weird dreams last night.

First I dreamed that we bought this amazingly beautiful Victorian house with a huge front yard.

For some reason there was like an old cart out in the front, and the mailbox was on it, and an old 1960s metal office chair and some boxes. We were talking about doing something specific with the space, but I can't remember what, and we were talking about moving the mailbox somewhere else. Then we looked out across the street, and noticed our neighbor's mailbox was at the street. Then we noticed there was a mailbox in front of our house, and we realized the mailbox on the cart was just junk, and we were talking about throwing everything on the cart away, when 3 cats and 2 dogs came crawling out of the boxes and junk.

Then we found a weird locket in the house, and we were suddenly in an episode of CSI where the locket was the calling card of a serial killer, and we found out he had killed the family that had lived in the house before us, and he'd never been caught. I started trying to lock all the windows and doors, but some of the doors wouldn't latch, and then there was a room into the foyer that didn't have a door, and I kept trying to latch the front door, but it swung both in and out, and I couldn't get the lock lined up to the door.

Then I had a tween daughter who was playing dress up with her friends, and they decided to go up into a turret that happened to be part of the house, and they were dressed as princesses.

Then I was in a room, that I think was supposed to be a dining room, and the floor was crazy. There was like a rectangle of about 6 x 12 of linoleum, and that was ringed with green shag carpeting, and then there was another square of wooden floors, also with a border of carpet, and then there was another space of wood floors, different from the other, also with a carpet border.

It was a strange and stressful dream.

Had some very weird disjointed dreams last night.

I was in a big house with this girl Kristin I used to know. There was something weird going on. We had a dog and a coyote, but somehow I knew they were actually people in disguise.

I followed Kirstin as she was walking to the bathroom, and I hid outside the door and watched her step on a scale. She then put a stool on the scale with her for some reason, like she was trying to make her weight higher than it was. Then she broke into all sorts of weird ballet/gymnastic moves on the scale.

Then we were downstairs and there were a ton of people there, and we had all these designer clothes we were trying on. And there were this man and woman, and they were some sort of agents, and we were supposed to do whatever they told us, and I was demanding to speak to their boss.

The coyote and the dog tried to get into the house, and that was weird, too. My son Fox was there, but they wouldn't let me take care of him. He was crying and I knew he was hungry, and I was screaming for someone to feed him. I was really, really upset.

Then they told me I could speak to the guy in charge, and it was Dr. Drew Pinsky, and I had to go down to the radio station to talk to him.

I woke up while I was trying to find parking at the radio station.

I had some confusing dreams that had to do with traffic, and there was snow or something.

Then I had a dream I was home with Eric, and we were in my old apartment in Fremont.

There were two old Christmas presents on top of the fridge. There weren't tags on them, but I knew I had bought them for someone, but obviously did give them out. I suggested we open them. Eric seemed reluctant, but finally relented. I swear it smelled of chocolate, and I was hoping for a gift basket filled with food, but when I opened it, it was this weird purse filled with little, obviously used toys.

Somehow this sparked a discussion between Eric and I about decorating the kids room. He told me he wanted to decorate Ian's room in Toy Story 3, but I've already bought new decorations for Ian's room, and this started a huge fight.

I woke up to Eric waking me, and I was apparently thrashing about in my sleep.
