Mydera

I only had three dreams that I can remember last night, but they were all fairly long, so I'm going to blame it on all the cold medicine making me sleep longer without waking up every couple hours or so, lol.

Dream One: My husband and I are at home hanging out with the oldest neighborhood kids. This should have been a glaring clue I was dreaming.We used to hang out with them a lot last year, then they got into drugs and smoking and I didn't want that around my little kids, so we purposely avoid going out side to play when they are around. The house was also different. It was still the same property, obviously, but the basement was gone, and the house was on stilts like you see that the beach. We were under the house leaning back against the columns as the little kids played in the front yard. I can't remember what we were chatting about. A girl walks up, and the oldest kid introduces her as his girl friend, and they all say they're going to go to the woods now that she's here. We say goodbye, have fun, and wave. Then we call our kids into the house telling them they need a nap before tonight, but don't specify what's going on at night. We go inside, and go upstairs, apparently we have just finished off the second level (in reality we're trying to finish off the basement and make it a living space) and our bedroom is on the second level. When we get upstairs and I am very unhappy to find the house wobbles on it's stilts. I spread my legs and lean from side to side and the house seems to lean from side to side with me. My husband assures me it's safe, that it's just caused by the stilts. I tell him I won't be able to sleep if it keeps moving, and he tells me that I should think of it as being rocked to sleep by the house. I lay down with my daughter and my husband lays down with our little boy trying to get them to nap. We're all in the same room, my kids are scared to have a room of their own, so their beds are in our bedroom. Shortly after we lay down, my daughter is asleep, so I stand up and walk over to the window to see how dark it is. I look out the window and it's bright and sunny still, but I see two sailor scouts, Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune, standing on the street looking up at the house. Normally these are my two favorite sailor moon characters, but in this dream seeing them gave me a bad feeling and I rushed to the bed and grabbed my daughter shouting to my husband the sailor scouts are here. He grabs my son, and suddenly the two scouts teleport into the room. Sailor Neptune stands in front of me, and Uranus in front of my husband. Neptune tells me to give her my daughter and there will be no fighting, I tell her hell no, and then I transform into a sailor scout. She attacks me with a water attack, and I absorb it because I am scout with water powers too. Beside me, Uranus is attacking my husband with a fire attack, but he's turned into sailor mars (which in hindsight is a HILARIOUS event!) and absorbed her fire as well. Neptune sneers, the teleports out as an escape with uranus copying her exactly. We don't pursue them, we're just glad that the kids are safe. I notice it's getting dark, so I tell the kids it's time to go trick or treat. They don't seem phased at all by the attack. Before we can leave, I get a phone call. I answer it and it's my Friend N telling me that she called about the empty room we had available, and she's really excited about moving in with us. She says the new house she found was great, but knowing that she'd be living with good friends with kids her daughters age for her to play with was even better. Then she tells me she's moving into room 208, and I look down the stairs at the room door and suddenly remember that only the even numbered rooms of the house are finished (My house rooms aren't numbered, this is just strange dream logic, lol) I tell her I can't wait for the move in, but I have to go because we were heading out to go trick or treating. She Says ok, and we hang up. I carry my daughter outside, she's apparently already in her costume, but my husband has to put my son in his. I get outside and think I forgot my costume! Then realize I don't have one! I run back inside scrambling to find something that could be a costume, and settle on a suede coat with a fuzzy collar and fuzzy stuff around the ends of the sleeves. My best friend A calls it my "Penny Lane" coat (from the movie Almost Famous) and so I grab some round pink sunglasses and look in the mirror. My hair is long, like past my shoulders long, so I really do resemble her and I am satisfied. I walk outside with my daughter again, and my husband and son are with us this time. The drive way is three times it's normal length , and my car is in the middle, so it takes us a moment to get to it. Then Sailor Neptune and Sailor Uranus appear on the road again. I think to myself why did I even bother with this costume when I could have transformed into a sailor scout for my costume?! I throw off the coat and transform anticipating another attack. Then I wake up.

Dream Two: I'm at the store with my grandma. She's looking at calendars. It's really strange, they're all already open and hanging from the shelf on the current month. She has her glasses on and she's getting up close to them to see better, with her hand on a buggy. I'm bored so I'm just kind of walking around the aisle looking at random stuff, when I nearly step on a kid. I apologize for not looking where I was going, but it turns out to be one of the neighbors kids (not one of the ones from the first dream though). He's saying he made some thank you cards for granny since she's been driving him to school, and I tell him she's busy looking at calendars but I'll give it to her. He thanks me, but follows me over to her. I hang the cards up on the store shelf for some dumb reason. He tells me that they're for granny, don't lose them. I told him I put them there so when she'd look up she'd see them and be surprised. He's happy with this answer. Then grandma looks up and sees them. She asks whats this, and I tell her the kid next door made them for her. She's happy, and wants to thank him, but I notice he's suddenly not there! We decide to check out and go home so she can thank him, but as soon as we get to the registers we can see out the stores big glass doors and there's a crazy storm going on out side. We decide to stay in the store rather than risk being blown away as we're seeing cars being blown in the parking lot! We walk to the side of the store, and there's another, smaller glass door. I see the neighbors other, younger, kid standing in a trailer door about ten feet from the glass door. The wind is blowing the door and his clothes and he looks scared. I open the glass door and yell at him to get back inside the trailer before he's blown away. He says he can't, he has to get inside the store where his mom and brother are. I curse under my breath, then decide I'm going to have to help the kid because if I don't he's stupid enough to try to make it through that storm and over here by himself. I start out in the wind, being pelted with cold rain and stung by the wind, then I wake up.

Dream Three: This was the longest dream, but hardest to remember since the kids woke me up and I didn't have a chance to "dwell" on it before I woke up. I was at an anime convention. I had just walked into the building from the third floor. Apparently it was a four story building, and the biggest convention I'd ever seen. There were lots of young adults and teens and even some tweens leaning on the walls and sitting in the floors doing various things (looking at pictures, playing video games, talking, eating, etc) I look around, and am nervous because I'm by myself and I don't know anyone. I'm a very shy person. I hear someone say this floor is the lounge floor for hanging out, the next floor down is the library where you can read manga and watch anime, and the bottom floor is the panel floor where you can participate in panels. I don't hear what the floor upstairs is. I decide to head down to the panel floor and find out what kind of panels there are. I spend a good five minutes trying to make my way through the halls and down the stairs. When I arrive on the panel floor, a girl with blond hair probably in her early teens grabs my arm and says, "You look like your here alone, mind doing and interview with me?" and I'm like, um sure, that's fine. Then I notice there's a really skinny guy around her age with super short dishwater blond hair with her. Apparently he's also doing the same interview. The girl walks in front of us and she's pointing to things and asking us our opinions. I feel silly and out of place because many of the questions she asks us I have no clue about. My answers are like, "Well I don't know, I've never played that game/seen that show/read that manga" I feel very uncomfortable, and suddenly a man who looks about my age with a buzz cut grabs the girls arm and says, "Hey kid! I told you to stop wandering around in the panel rooms with these stupid interviews. It's disruptive!" the girl hits the floor crying. The man tells me and the other kid to get lost. The girl disappears. I leave, but the other kid starts following me. I start to tell him to tail someone else, I don't really want to baby sit, when he starts crying that he can't believe it's his first convention and he's already in trouble. He flat out breaks down bawling. I tell him to relax, that the guy was just mad because the girl was interrupting his panel (it had been some sort of figure painting crafty panel) and the guys says, "Really? are you sure?!" and I'm like yeah, don't worry about it, your not in trouble! Unfortunately, comforting him makes him even more determined to follow me around. I'm annoyed, but figure there's nothing I can do now, so I just decide to try and see the upstairs floor since I hadn't seen it yet, and maybe I'd lose the kid in the crowd. The floor plan of the building keeps changing, but I don't recognize it as a dream, instead I get frustrated because I keep getting lost. On the plus side, I think I have lost the kid. Finally I make it to a room with lots of video games and arcade machines. This is the fourth floor! I'm happy to be on the fourth floor and see a convention staff member nearby. I ask him what there was to do on this floor besides video games, and he tells me there's a fort to climb and points to the right. I thank him, realizing he's the same guy who fussed earlier at the interviewer, but he was really nice so I was right he wasn't mad. I make my way to this fort and think, WOW! How cool! It'll be like being a kid again! Its made of climbing walls and ladders and cargo nets, and there's a room at the top with a slide. I make it halfway up and realize that the kid is following me again. Beyond that, he's actually climbing faster than me and if soon right beside me. He tells me I'm slower than I look, and I tell him it's because I'm ten years older than he is. He says I don't look that old, he thought he was older than me, and I glare at him (In waking life this is often a problem, people think I'm 14 and I'm actually in my mids 20s. I still get asked for my drivers license at some gas stations b/c they think I'm underage and stolen my parents car! At my husbands grandmothers funeral, several extended family thought I was my husbands daughter... we're only a couple years apart in age, so that was a trip!) Then the kid gets the idea that he's pissed me off and climbs up the net faster than me, and offers a hand down to help me up. I tell him I can do it myself and I really don't need a kid to help me, then go on to say he's annoying and I want him to just get lost already. He frowns like I hurt his feelings, but then the net slips and suddenly falls five feet. I hit the plastic slide beneath the net and freak out, "What happened?!" the kid apologizes saying he accidentally knocked it lose. I'm very super pissed and annoyed now. I tell him to fix it and he says he can't figure out how. I turn to go back down the way I'd climbed up, and a couple of girls are climbing up. I tell them the kid broke it and it's no use. They whine about how unfair it is, not helping my mood. Then my kids woke me up.
