The Dreams of Hannah

I dreamed I was at the RinkUnion. For some reason, Christy was there with me, as was Chris from choir. We had this big old mansion we were renting, and the only thing we did there all day was play hide and seek. So we hid in closets, under beds... somehow South Park was connected to all this, but that's kind of hazy.

Eventually it turned out that was all a movie, and we weren't really playing hide and seek at the RinkUnion at all, but now it was time to go home. We were all standing outside the airport, and Christy and daniel78 and I were about ready to get on the same plane to go home. Sam came up to me and said, "I don't know if you and Daniel are together or anything, but I think you would make a really charming couple." Which kind of weirded me out. And then Daniel and I didn't even end up flying home on the same plane after all.

There's also a moment somewhere in here where Caitlin's home from New Zealand, and my stalker from last semester and I are taking her out to dinner. The only way to the restaurant is down this incredibly steep rocky path, but my stalker tells us it's faster to walk directly ON the rocks and not on the path. I discover this is true, because the rocks are covered with "heather" and I discover I can skate down the heather and get to the bottom faster.

Next thing I know, I'm going to the Sauk play again. I buy two student tickets, planning to take my sister, but somehow she gets left behind when I leave the house, so now I've got an extra ticket. Christy's wandering around there, so I try to take her with me. Rina from kids' lit is running the tickets, but she's doing a really sloppy job with the whole thing. Christy and I go in, sit down, and halfway through the play I have to leave, so I get up and leave.

The next night I feel bad that I didn't get to see the whole thing, so I go back and buy two MORE student tickets (only now they're red because they're a different price). I actually end up cheating Rina as she's sorting her money and tell her that I've already given her my money, when really I haven't given her anything at all. So she gives me the tickets, and I realize I was going to ask Staci from drama to come to the play with me, but I forgot her at home, too. She's wandering around and I try to get her to come see it, but she's already got her own tickets with her own friends.

As I get ready to go inside the theater, Jason is standing outside the theater giving a lecture to those going in - almost like a tour guide thing, actually - about a man named Gavin Gmail (yeah, like the email service) who had to use his cell phone in the middle of the play. "His grandmother was dying," Jason says. "Of course, that gives him no excuse, but still, it was nice of him to tell me." Then he ushers us on in, but once again I have to leave in the middle of the show, with a very sad realization that I will probably never see the end again.

I dreamed Caitlin came over to my house for a movie night, but she brought Anna W with her. Okay, cool, I thought to myself. But Anna immediately started in on me and called me all sorts of nasty things. I tried to be polite back to her. Finally she said she had to leave, she didn't want to stay for this stupid party anyway. Caitlin seemed completely oblivious to this whole thing. Bethany was downstairs and as Anna was leaving, Bethany whispered to me, "Boy, aren't you glad she's gone!"

I dreamed there was a very large, very creepy windstorm outside. Both Mom and Dad had been killed. For a short time Norbert was in our house, but then he was killed, too. As I was washing dishes, I noticed his cell phone sitting on the kitchen counter. I opened it up and really it worked like an Ipod. It had four songs on it, three of which were dark, scary, chanting music. The fourth was "Shiksa Goddess". I was really relieved that I had something cheery to listen to if I needed it.

A bit later Caitlin, Annie, and Laura all showed up. Caitlin and Annie showed up at my house to surprise me on their way home from Mexico, and Laura was just sitting at my computer playing Petz 3.

Suddenly I discovered I'd deleted "Shiksa Goddess", and this fact distressed me more than all the deaths.

I had a long dream that at first involved Campus Crusade. We were in the old youth room, and it was me, Caitlin, Terin from my French class, and Jasmine H. I opened in prayer and I ended up praying for like half an hour. Heh.

Then the L.'s decided to go to Ohio instead of New York. I went camping with them for 10 days in Ohio and then went on to New York for like three days. It made me very sad that our vacation changed like that. Hmm.

I dreamed I was in Creative Writing and Caitlin was there but didn't have any of her stuff done, so she said, "Maybe if I scribble all over it, she won't notice!"

Then Amanda V., the class instructor, showed up, but instead of sitting in a chair for the class she decided to sit on a filing cabinet. She was also eating yogurt. I was talking about something and somehow I accidentally said that I wanted to marry a word. (Erm... yeah. *shrug*) Amanda just gave me a look and said, "Well, er, good luck with the word wedding." I tried to explain what I meant but everything just got more and more confused.

I dreamed that Caitlin, Jen M., and I went to Cornerstone. It was a long complicated dream but I'll try to write down what I remember about it.

The festival took place in this giant, white, very sterile-looking building. Each floor had two rooms in it, and each room had a band in it. I was looking for ApologetiX, but they were on like the very, very top floor. So Caitlin and Jen and I wandered up there looking for them and on the way we found Jenni D. and Tiffany and some other girl I didn't know. Jenni was being very loud and obnoxious, however, and Caitlin kept going, "Are you SURE you know this girl?"

We saw the stairs that would lead us right up to the ApologetiX room, and we started toward them. We passed a table with a blue tablecloth on it. A woman was standing in front of it, and she came toward us and snapped at us, "I'm responsible to make sure none of you get lost. I'm your group's sponsor." There was a plate of cookies on the table behind us, and she suddenly yelled, "EAT A COOKIE!" Jenni and Tiffany and the girl I didn't know began chatting with her, and I sneaked upstairs to see ApologetiX.

The concert was apparently in progress, but it was about the lamest concert ever. There were couches everywhere on the stage and each of the guys was lying down on a couch with a guitar (whoo... five guitars and nothing else) sorta lazily playing it and not doing much else.

I went back downstairs, where Caitlin and Jen were waiting for me. Well, not really waiting, as they had found two pianos right next to each other and were busily leafing through songbooks to find something for the two of them to play. They were all songbooks of Russian and Ukranian folk songs, though. I said something like, "Oh, I wish I was talented enough to play an instrument!" Jen said, "You sing, though, right?" I said, "Er, well, yeah..." and they both started begging me to sing something from the songbooks with them. However, as I don't speak/read Russian or Ukranian, I had to decline.
