Last week, I had two dreams. Unfortunately I've waited too long to write them up, so they aren't nearly as detailed as they should be.
In the first dream, I was in some sort of classroom.* I think that the class was going to have some sort of holiday party or something, because people were being assigned food to bring in. Somehow it ended up that James and I were responsible for bringing banana muffins. Now, normally I make them from scratch, but in the dream, they were being made from box-mixes. Also, we each had to make/bring ONLY six. This resulted in a giant argument, because that meant that we'd both have to buy a box, and use half an egg, and why couldn't James come over so we could use one box and make all 12 at the same time? But there's dream-logic for you. Each had to use half a box and toss the extra. Couldn't even make a dozen and keep half for myself.
There was some more stuff that happened after that, but I don't remember it.
Second dream:
I was attending Penn State* and trying to find someplace to live. My aunt and uncle lived like 15-20 minutes away and were thinking of moving, so I was going to buy their house and live there. (IRL, they do not live anywhere near Penn State.) Anyway, they were out of the house (shopping? on vacation?) and I was visiting, just kind of checking it out and seeing what kind of changes (paint) I'd want to make when I moved in. All their stuff was still there. All of a sudden, I hear someone knocking on the door, so I went downstairs, and it was a real estate agent with a couple who wanted to look at the house. I was just like, um, no, go away, I'm buying this house, so you don't need to look at it. But at that moment, a random girl shows up, and said that she could show them around, it'd be no problem! Apparently she was renting a room that I hadn't gotten around to looking in yet, and knew that the house was going to get sold, but she just figured she'd keep renting her room from the new owner. Lots of mis-communication going on. Eventually things got sorted, and I bought the house and the girl kept renting her room. Kind of a boring dream.
Then, earlier this week, I had the following dream, which kind of ruined my day. Just some background info- I've been trying to find a job, and keep getting turned down, and am waiting to hear back from the company that stars in this dream.
I got a call from the hiring manager, saying that they wanted to offer me the job, and could I start on Monday? I of course, accepted the offer, and went to work. The company kind of turned out (in the dream) to be kind of a weird oil-services kind of company. I got a tour of the office area from a girl, and then she took me out to see the other buildings. One that we went to was knee-deep with a really thick mud. The workers in the building were collecting something (water? thats what it kind of looked like) from pipes that came down from the ceiling, and everyone was really muddy. But they were all happy and enjoyed their jobs. Now, the workers were all dressed for this, but I was wearing nice pants and flats... so I'm pretty sure I lost the flats in the mud.
That's really all I remember of that one because I just got pissed when I woke up that I didn't actually have the job. :(
*Why so many dreams about school? I'm graduated!

Two in one!
Last nigh I had two dreams! The first was weird, the second was kind of exciting.
First dream: It was like I was actually in a minecraft world. I was in some tunnel/cave exploring and putting candles down and opening all the chests I found in there. Then all of a sudden I was like, ow, my stomach hurt. So I dug my way out of the left wall to the outside (only one block to go through, and somehow I knew that). So I get out, and my sister is there. Yup, in the dream I had a sister. She was pretty awesome. And so I told her my stomach hurt, and she was like, "Oh! Maybe you're pregnant too!" And I'm just like "Um... what? No." And it turns out that she had unprotected sex with her boyfriend and two days later got an IUD and then missed her period and found out she was pregnant. And I was like, "Wait, don't you have an IUD? How are you preggers?" But it was the sex before it got put in that made her pregnant, and in her own words: "I got grandfathered in!" (Because it happened before the IUD.)
So anyway, weird dream where I had a sister who was pregnant. >.>
Second dream: I was in someone's house, maybe my mom's house in the future, or some other relative's imaginary house. They had like zero food, and I was hungry, so I went down to the basement to look for food down there. I found a box that had like two tins of tuna*, so I brought the box upstairs to make the tuna. Then I noticed that there was a book in the bottom of the box, so I took it out.
It was a Disney book from the 40's with glass and tissue paper pages. Like, there'd be glass, and on either side would be tissue paper pages with the words and pictures on it. Because apparently, before books were made out of paper, they were made out of sheets of glass (covers were like the covers on golden books). So then I get all excited about how I found this old book in perfect condition, when I notice there is a photograph in the bottom of the box also. It looks like it was taken at Christmas. It had my grandpa sitting in a chair, and then my uncle is on the floor. There is another person in the picture who was the same uncle, but that doesn't make sense. My uncle is wearing pretty neat looking glasses (titanium across the top, and then the rest are plastic... I know, that description is horrible, but they looked super cool in the dream), and the other guy who looks like he is also my uncle, but older and with a huge bushy grey beard, is wearing those giant hipster glasses. But since my uncle can't be in the same photo twice, we're just gonna assume the guy with the beard is a stranger.
So then it's time for me to go to a park with my parents, my brother, his best friend, his best friend's parents and siblings, and one of my friends (not sure who). We are at the park, because the parents have to meet a contractor to do work on both houses, and for some reason they had to drag all the kids along.
My friend and I are sitting off to the side, and she asks me about my brother's best friend's family and why they have so many kids. I tell her that the parents had seven kids, and then they had to adopt two more because those kids' parents died in a car crash and the parents had been friends. Then I showed her the stuff I found in the tuna box, and she was kind of intrigued, but apparently was not as interested in a glass book from the 40's as I was.
*The tuna was also from the 40's, so it was probably a good thing there was the book and photo to distract me. 60+ year old tuna does not sound tasty.
