I posted the whole dream in my journal, but here is the snippet that is bothering me.

They all ordered, and as the food started to arrive, I realised that my plate that I had brought with me was not there. I looked around for it and then I noticed that Clair was eating a sausage. She hadn't ordered any food. I stood up and looked at her plate. Sure enough, it was my dinner.

I was really upset. She had publicly and blatantly stolen my food, and none of the others would believe me. Not only that but when she was eating the sausages she was making comments about how bad they tasted.

I ended up getting on the table, walking over and taking the plate from her myself. Everybody's faces showed that they clearly thought that I was the one in the wrong. [/b]
It was a very intense feeling, and normally that's enought for me to intereperet my own dreams. Forexample, I had to give a presentation yesterday, and the dream I had beforehand was fast moving, broken and generally anxious feeling.

I also understand the rest of the dream, like cooking sausages is something I was getting very impatient over when I was doing it yesterday, and I recently made a painting of my freind Maxwell, so the picture was kind of stuck in my head. And so on and so forth.

But the feeling of somebody stealing my dinner... it's completely irrelevant to the way I've been feeling!
It was something I felt waay back in junior school, when people would temporarily take things from you to tease you and them act like you were making much ado about nothing.

Thoughts?
