First Dream:
I am somewhere, maybe Europe, I am staying in an overcrowded house. There are some people I know well and some not at all. We are all there for some sort of festival. On the day of the festival my friends Brian and Felicity and I travel by my car to the meadow where it is all at. We get separated almost immediately, the two of them off on their own and me by myself. I am walking the parameter of the festival which is delineated by the orange plastic fencing, that in many places has been trampled down into the mud by the visitors. I finally find a trampled place and enter. There are Dalian puppets on motorbikes and Victorian porcelain women masquerading around, there is a gazebo up on the slope with a band playing music that I can only hear parts of. Everything feels film grain and sepia toned, though it's not. Overlooking the meadow of the festival is a marble mansion. Now I am witness to the events, but do not feel as though I am there. There is a bounty hunter tracking a magical woman, while protecting a worldly one. The woman being tracked, she appears suddenly, though the tracker seemed to know where she was going to be. The woman being protected is moved into the thick of the festival disappearing into the motorbike puppets and stilt walkers.
It is getting dark and I have a sudden urgency that I must be getting along to work, and Brian has to drive me back to where we are staying so I can clean up. I finally find the two of them and get Brian to drive me home, though Felicity stays behind, which Brian does not like. In the car I ask him if he likes her, if he wants to sleep with her, and he says yes. I am upset by this, though I come across as more demanding then angry. I tell him I don't want him to sleep with her, and he contests that we're not together, so he can do as he chooses, and I tell him that he knows sleeping with my good friend isn't cool, and that I showed him the respect not to sleep with his friend. We get to where we are going and I am sitting in the living room getting ready to shower when the bounty hunter and her charge enter. They close the door behind them, and then the door starts to pulse forward. I can see this intense energy coming into the living room through the door and it just hovers in front of the bounty hunter. I am unaltered by all this and casually watch the encounter until it is time to go into the bathroom. There are two showers inside claw foot bath tubs. I am getting ready to get into one when these two guys come in and start to shower oblivious that I was there first. So I sit in the steam and think about Felicity and Brian. I am jealous of her because I feel that she is better than me, smarter, sexier, more accomplished and I know why Brian would want to be with her. Finally one of the guys finishes and I take my shower, get out, get dressed and head out to work. As I am walking down the stairs I see Felicity and I ask her not to sleep with Brian, out of respect for me. She is aloof about the request and dismisses me by off handedly saying that she's not interested in him like that, though I am not convinced.
Another Dream:
I am younger and living with my father in a rural-esque area. I go to school by walking down an orchard path. Things are very idyllic. I come home and do homework on a computer, and we go food shopping at a farmer's market and we talk about the ways of the world, and ideals and what to have for breakfast.
