I pray the Lord my soul to keep;
And if I die before I wake,
I pray the Lord my soul to take.
Ah yes.... dreams. I love it when they come to me and they are wacky. This particular one I unfortunately forgot the ending to, but the middle parts are interesting as well.
--------------------------
Me and some friends are heading to an amusement park. It isn't Canada's Wonderland because as we arrive the layout is way different and there are different rides. I'm not sure what it is though, but there is a parking garage at this park instead of a large area parking lot. So we drive up in a spiral to find our spot, park and then head into the park.
As we get through the entrance, a sinister fellow grabs me and leads me away from my friends to an amusement that he runs. My friends just keep walking and don't notice I've been taken away. This particular amusement is very curious... basically I have to stand in a circle on a grassy knoll and swing a large model airplane on a chain and let it go so that it can hit a target on the ground ahead of me. The targets look like a children's hopscotch game, with numbers inside squares. So I agree to the game, but unfortunately the guy running it tells me it costs something extra (outside of the park entrance fee). Curiously, he doesn't tell me the exact price. I panic and fumble through my pockets, but all I can produce is a 5-dollar bill. The man is really upset and angry, and tells me it costs $30 to swing the large model airplanes into the targets. Just as he is doing all this, I remember I forgot my parents' dog in the car! The scene ends.
I am now standing in front of a parking garage stairwell entrance. As I enter it, I realize it isn't a stairwell after all. It is a small bathroom! But there is no toilet or sink, just a bathtub with a shower and curtain. My dog is in the bathroom as well, and instead of being a mixed-breed beagle like he is supposed to be, he has become a small black terrier dog! "Bandit!" I say to him, and pet him. I decide to take a shower, and I remember it takes me a long time to finish. But as I finish, I look down in horror to see a black furry splotch down at my feet... it seems the dog has melted in front of me while I was in the shower. I panic again and look around, yelling his name. I then notice out of the corner of my eye that he has run out of the bathroom and is running away in the parking garage.
I chase after him yelling his name but to no avail. Then I remember a trick that always makes him come to me. I yell, "Bandit, come eat it!". This make him run to me hoping for food, but as he gets close I grab him and throw him into the bathroom to lock him up. This is when something odd happens: suddenly my kid brother is standing in front of me. He says he wants to join me and my friends in the park. But I tell him no, you are too young, and I lock him up in the bathroom. As I turn around and leave I hear him yelling and banging on the door, begging me to take him with us. But I am stubborn and refuse to look back.
When I am with my friends again - I don't remember this part of my dream vividly - they question why I did such a cruel thing, and that him being 12 years old, he could have joined us no problems. I ponder what they said for a while, but soon ignore it as we have fun on the rides.
--------------------------
So that was my dream, well, what I can remember of it. I have no clue what th interpretation could be, but I'm sure it's something interesting. I really should start to have a notepad beside my bed so I can remember all the key details of my dreams, cause there is some wacky stuff that goes on in them. But sometimes I wonder why can't I just dream of beautiful women like normal guys do? Oh well that's life, can't control what I dream about. Hope everyone has a good Christmas break!
