last night's dream (in part)

Part of last night's dream involved trying to wrap up two pieces of white bread. In real (waking) life, I sometimes get two pieces of white bread from the cafeteria at work and take them to my cubicle to put peanut butter on them. Often I spend so much time in the cafeteria chatting with coworkers that by the time I get back to my desk, the bread has gotten all dried out and icky. In the dream I was trying to wrap the bread in a napkin to prevent this. But it didn't work, and the bread got dry and icky anyway, and I asked my mom what to do, and she said the only solution was to remove the crusts, so that's what I did.

Oh, that reminds me, I have to write about my dream of a few nights ago where I was Buffy. Sort of. I'll make that a separate entry.

my buffy dream

I dreamt that I was on a large island somewhere in Wales. I knew I was in Wales because all the people and places had those Welsh-style names full of consonants. There was some sort of fair or festival going on, with lots of kids running around, live music, food, etc. Although it was a fairground type of area, there were a lot of very tall trees, spaced widely apart. And it was dark -- overcast and cloudy, I think.

Some of the kids were climbing trees so I decided to climb one too. I was climbing to the top of a tree and looking down on the kids running around. At the top of the tree there were bookshelves with mostly kids' books. I was looking at the books but I'm not sure if I was looking for something specific or just looking. I think it was one of those "I'll know what I'm looking for when I find it" things.

There was an older man talking to me. I'm not sure how he managed that since I was at the top of the tree, but he was there beside me (but not in the tree). He was my childhood friend Jessie's dad, Bob. But he was also either Angel or Giles, and I was me but I was also Buffy, and I knew that I had to tell him about my relationship with Spike, but I was worried about how he would react. I also knew that Spike was somewhere down on the ground running around with the little kids and waiting for me.

Then I started to climb down the tree again, and all along the trunk of the tree closer to the ground (where there weren't any branches) it was like a medicine cabinet with lots of vials and jars of various drugs, herbs, powders, etc. All in varying sizes but most with very old labels. I was going along the rows of them looking at each one, and it was starting to strain my eyes because most of the labels were written in very small print. Bob/Angel/Giles was still talking to me too. Again there was the same sense that I was looking for a specific drug or medicine and would know it when I found it.

At that point I either woke up or the dream morphed into a totally different dream. I forget.
