What does it say about David Bowie?

Another "on the stage" dream.  I suddenly found myself a cast member of an ostensibly Tennessee Williams play--except it resembled Thornton Wilder's Our Town, as done by Samuel Beckett. My character was "Rose," one of two whose role was to set the stage and comment to the audience on the daily lives of the 8 characters in the town.  Except I had stumbled into the 30 minutes before the second performance of that evening, without having played Rose for years. I had forgotten all of my lines, and was desperately searching for a hard copy of the play so I could at least recall the timing of Rose's comments, if I couldn't remember the exact words.  I found about 6 copies, all of them the wrong editions, and most being used by the other actors playing the main characters, who were critiquing their previous performance and audience response.  I then watched a re-enactment, behind the stage, of the central event that all the actors thought had galvanized the audience: a ritual signing of three overlapping legal documents from right to left. This maneuvre was known by its Irish term, and turned out to be a double-scam: the signer was defrauding the contract owner, who then intended to defraud the signer.  I realized the play was a mystery, intended to playfully deceive the audience.  When the curtains came up, I still had not remembered or found my lines.

I have been dreaming the same dream at least twice a week.  I have been being chased and attacked by really large spreadsheets of really small font numbers.  Ugh.

I had an erotic dream about the Dean of Science at my university.  Is that weird?

And of the sex opposite of what you are usually attracted to?

That's happened to me several times lately.

I was playing cards with Elizabeth I.  Which was odd, since I don't play cards in real life...

Background: IRL, I'm anticipating a delivery of some organic produce in the next week.

Dream: Deliverer of the organic produce order arrives at some vague location where folks are supposed to pick up their orders.  By the time I get to the bins, my order for garlic and beets is reduced to a single shriveled-up clove of garlic and a long, weirdly shaped beet that is, well, limp.

Interpretation:  Entirely up to you!

I was eating staples and they were rather tasty.  I only stopped because I was worried I might injure some internal organs....

A marathon two-dream morning.  In the first, I was in an operating theatre, about to participate in a surgery, but as a guest resident or an observer, I couldn't tell.  I started to scrub in, then kept having to leave the room, and scrub in again.  Other doctors walked in, and it was like a cast of celebrity MDs from the hospital coming to the Grammys--the glamourous, young, handsome MD came in, beaming, with his gorgeous MD wife on his arm, and nodded to me, though we didn't know each other. As more people entered, it turned into a luncheon around a table. I sat across from an older couple who didn't belong, and told me they lived in _____, in Ontario. He told me that you find it by drawing a diagonal line from Buffalo through Ontario at a 45-degree angle. I interrupted him and said, "I know where ________ is!  What lake are you on? Are you on _____ lake?" They looked at me like I was an idiot who really didn't know the area, so I said, "Fine: what bay are you on?"  Then she told me that their house moves around, so it's very difficult to pin its location down, and you can never find it from the landmarks.

In the second, I was in my childhood house, bringing in groceries to camp out, when I saw that it was infested with giant black ants that resembled the black Queen chess piece, on its side. There was one particular menacing black ant whose head was white from powdered insecticide, which had only made it stronger. We were locked in a standoff for 10 minutes, it glaring at me from the floor, waiting for me to make a move, and me frantically trying to figure out where to put my groceries so they would be safe from the ants. While standing there, I read a short summary that described the black ants from my childhood as "amateur" ants, compared to these super, pesticide-enhanced ants. I considered bringing in a pair of breeding rats to devour the ant population, but then realized I would have a bigger problem with a rat infestation. Finally, I made a move, but the giant black ant charged at me. I stomped on it as if it was a cockroach, and its carcass exploded with hundreds of mini black ants that swarmed the kitchen and left worms in their place.

Ok, no more late night snacks for you!

I dreamed the office of the chair of my department also had a bedroom attached so the poor guy could just live there all the time.  Gads!

I dreamed that I was in London, trying to catch a train to meet a friend in a bar across the city. While trying to get to the train station, I almost got run over by both the train and a whole lot of cars -- apparently I was trying to walk across a highway. One of the cars stopped and I got inside. My classmate was in the car with a random guy. He drove us to a different train station from the one I had been trying to get to, and after we got on the train I discovered a huge bag of weed in my bag (which wasn't mine!) and in order to not get caught with the weed we emptied the bag out of the train window. I did actually make it to meet my friend in the bar, but while we were there police came and tried to arrest me for disposing of the weed. I tried to explain how I had it, but they didn't believe me and arrested my friend instead, for some unknown reason. Later, while still in the bar, I met two new people and started talking to them about the fora. One of them said he was a forumite and threatened to out me.

I should probably refrain from late night snacks as well.

I often have dreams about the current stressors in my life, and that I have forgotten something critical. For example, when I was an undergrad, I had frequent dreams that I was enrolled in a class that I forgot about, never attended, and failed. I still have similar dreams that I have to teach a class in a completely different discipline or that I wasn't told I would be teaching.

Last night I had a flying dream. I love those.
