dream fragment

I, along with three of my friends, am fighting a guy. Though I don't remember clearly seeing a face, emotionally I recognize this guy as the current romantic interest of an ex-girlfriend. We are wearing mechanized suits, a la Iron Man. Being that it's 3-on-1, we are beating him up pretty badly. I notice that the appearance of our target is changing; he first transforms into my friend Armand, then my friend Bradley.

I'm walking down an alley. To my right are four arcade machines. One was definitely Metal Slug, one was a shooting game, and I think one may have been Puzzle Bobble. The set-up reminds me of the arcade room at a pizza place in my hometown.

Two dream fragments:
- Myself and a few other guys were fighting our friend Carl, who is an OL in NFL. We fought in a wrestling ring surrounded by a steel cage. Carl beat us without much effort; after the match he was talking smack with a cool, calm, and confident demeanor.
- I'm backstage at what feels like some sort of contest/competition. I see some of the other competitors and start hamming it up, doing wacky dances and pointing at everyone as I enter the room. I eventually start doing some breakdance moves in an effort to impress one of the girls who I found particularly cute. I'm spinning on the ground and eventually find that I'm sliding around on the ground as if there were absolutely no friction. I end up sliding through some doors and around a pillar, shouting "Still going!" the entire time.

I'm in the family room of my parents' house. It's dark in the room, though I can't tell if it's night time. I'm trying to ward off some wild animals that have made their way into the house. Two of the three animals don't look familiar, while the other is a raccoon. I shoo them out the back door multiple times, only to have them scurry back in each time.

Recollections of two dreams from last night:
- In the first dream I found myself in Virginia, at some type of campus. I had flown there to visit my friend Ryan. I remember that once I got there I realized Ryan was still working in China. Around the campus I see a lot of people who I went to high school with.
- In the second dream I found myself outside of some sort of guesthouse/hostel/etc., hanging out with a group of people. We were drinking beer and smoking pot when a group of authority figures, none of whom I recognized, asked us if we were sober. I pay little attention to the them because I'm nervously searching for a plane ticket, for I have forgotten when my flight home leaves. I realize that my friends Ann and Alex are among the group of people I'm with. A few yards away I hear a group of people having a rather animated conversation. They are chastising Clancie, a girl I went to high school with, for introducing herself to a guy with a fake name in hopes of hooking up with him later.
