Menage a Trois Caught by God

Dream Seeker
No Comments »

Here are the main characters:

Mary – senior citizen
Jack – senior citizen
Carrie – young woman

I was helping Mary go shopping. We stopped at a small thrift store, where she ran into some ladies who knew her. The ladies mistakenly took me for Jack, her new boyfriend.

Before this, I was about to take an old supervisor to a Wal-Mart by the airport (we were in Queens, and I was referring to an old TSR (no-prize if anyone remembers that store) location — I have no idea if a Wal-Mart is over there or not). Not sure how the dream transitioned into the small thrift store.

Anyway, Carrie, some girl I dated in a previous life, showed up and started causing trouble. One thing led to another, and Mary, Jack, and Carrie, uh, ended up in a Menage a Trois. Thankfully, I was spared the gory details — they were in one of those huge beds with a canopy. There were lots of sheets.

This happened in some old castle-looking room. Next, I realized we were in a Catholic building.

Next thing I know, we’re in the middle of this huge Catholic church — maybe it was St. John’s the Divine in Manhattan.

The round panel windows flipped and turned blood red. A voice from on high called down and began to condemn Mary, Jack, and Carrie.

Carrie defiantly yelled back, stating basically that she specialized in wrecking people’s lives and causing turmoil.

God the Father came down from heaven and took a human form — an old white man with a short white beard and wavy hair. He wore a fedora and a sports jacket, polo shirt, and black slacks. He was thin. He was talking to someone up above him (Jesus?) about the consequences of coming down and to not hold anything against him.

He went over to talk to Mary and Jack about some deal that only makes sense in dreams. I guess he was trying to get them back on the right track, spiritually.

I don’t know what happened to Carrie after she mouthed off at God.

2010-01-24 Dream: Catholic, Islamic, Q10, Crossbay Theater

Dream Seeker
No Comments »

I had this awesome dream last night … unfortunately, I can only piece together random details:

- the setting was some kind of Catholic Church grounds, with a University

- There were members of the Islamic faith who were part of the church and lived there

- There was a murder; a father found out his son committed the crime; he knelt to the East as his son ran out of the room

- I was wheeling file boxes from one building to another, followed by midget priest

- Suddenly I was on Rockaway Blvd, catching a bus to Crossbay Theaters … I caught the wrong Q10 or whatever, and went in the wrong direction. The bus driver insinuated I may or may not be able to catch the right bus to come back. I asked if this bus will circle back around when the route completes; she said yes.

cellphone gun

Dream Seeker
No Comments »

I was watching a movie based in downtown Palm Beach. A guy had some elaborate scheme to murder an ex-girlfriend using elementary school students. The students each had cellphones that fired bullets when in camera mode.

When she walked down the hallway of the school, the guy fired at her with a cell phone. The bullet did not penetrate her skin, it was so small.

The guy tried to get the kids to fire, but they refused. He started grabbing cellphones and firing, but to no effect. He gave up, and they agreed to go eat dinner at their old favorite restaurant.

Transition: I’ m at work, just finishing up a graveyard shift. It was a huge Target with a data entry center attached to it in the back. I found some notes that I wanted to organize into an instruction manual. Howard Stern was there, keying away. He was down on his luck, apparently.

Beach house

I was watching an Andrew Lloyd Webber presentation on TV where they performed two of his plays simultaneously, and the music went together.

I was staying at a beach house. There was some argument about money, and who was allowed to stay there when.

Later, looking out a 2nd story bedroom window, I saw dark clouds and a wide water funnel in the distance. There appeared to be military jets flying out of the funnel.

marshland peanut farming

Dream Seeker
No Comments »

Brsd Pitt starred in a movie where he was wandering through some swamp land. He came across a peanut farm. The farmer let him cross, provided he did not steal anything.

Pitt ended up stealing something of value and getting chased into the swamp by hired hands.

Transition: Pitt is being interrogated by the farmer. The farmer is talking about his Jung rating.

“You mean the psychiatrist,” asked Pitt.

Transition: Pitt is hiding in the swamp water, swimming away quietly while the farm hands searched for him. Pitt made some alligator sounds to scare them off.

Check

Dream Seeker
No Comments »

I was hanging out with some co-workers on the second story of a brick building in New York City. Someone shot an arrow threw the window, with an envelope attached. It was a check to me for $3,714 — I had forgotten to collect some rebate from a local auto dealership for purchasing a car. I was grateful and happy for the cash.

I ended up driving through Queens and Harlem, taking pictures. There was this extremely steep hill that you had to shift into 2nd gear and lean forward in order to keep from flipping backwards. I got to the top and made a left …

… transition — I’m out of the car and walking on top of the hill. I walked over to a slide — it was a white, plastic slide. There were sideshow carnival clowns at the bottom of the slide. I took a ladder down, and pointed out that the slide was broken.

Transition — I’m outside a golf-course in Tamarac, Florida with the co-workers. They want to play a round and then get drunk afterwards. They ask me if I can be the designated driver for the van they’re going to rent. I do not commit.

G. showed up, and we hung out.

Dream: Stop

Dream Seeker
No Comments »

My father’s driving the car. My mom’s in the backseat, and I’m in the passenger seat.

We’re driving up to an intersection. The light is red … then it turns off. There are dark clouds in the air, so I assume it has something to do with that.

“Okay, power went out,” I tell my dad. He keeps moving forward.

“Stop,” I say.

The lights come back on, and it’s red. “Okay,” I say to myself. He slows down.

The lights start flashing yellow. He picks up speed.

“Dad, stop,” I say.

He goes into the intersection. Three lanes of traffic, each way. These cars also have a flashing yellow, and they’re not stopping either.

“Okay, gun it,” I tell him.

We have enough time to get past the first two lanes, but there’s a car in the third lane that’s speeding up. We won’t make it.

My dad stops the car in the middle lane. My mom is yelling. I’m sitting there, watching the traffic rush towards us, looking for a solution.

Dream: Nuclear Hill

Dream Seeker
1 Comment »

I was at a military base with some friends, touring the site. Somehow, someone accidentally activated a countdown sequence for a nuclear weapon to explode.

We climbed the top of a grassy hill. The commander in charge looked at us and said, “This is where it is. It’s right below us.”

I went ahead and slid down the other side of the grassy hill. The commander was yelling at me when I got to the bottom: “Don’t stay there!”

A few of my friends followed suit. We started laying down, throwing sand on top of us.

Transition: we’re inside a room at the base of the hill. G. was there now. We hid under a blanket as the explosion went off.

Someone who looked like my friend M.D., but with longer hair, opened the door. There was nothing but bright light outside. I felt the radiation strike the left side of my body. Before he opened it wider, I yelled, “Close it!”

He did.

I looked at G. and said, “Well, we’ve all been irradiated now.” Shook my head.

***

A few minutes later, we were leaving the shelter. The commander had given us the all-clear. There was fine dust particles in the air — fallout?

G and I hopped in a dark green Jeep with a top and drove through the nearby forest.

The blast must have been a dud, since there was no scorching on the ground, and the trees were all standing.

Dream: Programmable Organic Robots

I dreamt about college students in a world similar to our own, except there were these voice-programmable organic robots. These robots assisted the students.

A football player wanted to sleep with this redhead robot, but his verbal commands caused her to just sleep.

An engineering student seduced another robot that looked like Scully from X-Files, and they ended up getting married.

Happy Birthday, Dad

Dream Seeker
1 Comment »

I saw my dad in a dream this morning. He looked a little different — his face was fuller, and he had a bigger build, ala Ronald Reagan. We talked in English and Portuguese. He was in a genuinely good mood. We met at some fictional apartment/house I was living at in New York, and then went out for a walk, then a drive. We discussed current events and work.

His birthday is this week.

***

A few weeks ago, Damian wrote about a dream which confirmed how he was in control of the outcome. The dream I had this morning reminded me of that — for whatever reason, I chose to see my father the way I saw him, AND I recognized him even though he looked slightly different.

I think, in future Dream Seeker tales, I may use this notion of seeing loved ones who have passed away in dreams … the person looks different, but is still recognizable. Instead of seeing their appearance, you see what they represent.
