2/17/05 - Peanut Butter
Dream 1: peanut butter & vanilla melted on a stove and poured over chocolate cake. [I remember having a dream about my cousin, Lisa, making this. For some reason it just sounded so good that I just had to write it down when I woke up.]
Dream 2: mike & I had some discount tickets for the movies we had picked up from the box office. as we stood in line for the movie, a nearby movie employee pointed out there may be a problem with the expiration date on our tickets. I looked close at the tickets and they appeared to be fine, but the employee still insisted they wouldn't work. all of a sudden the boy next to us in line was pinning his ticket to the sleeve of my shirt for some reason, and we were let into the movies. we walked across the front of an auditorium filled with people, then we trotted up the stairs on the left side. on our way to the top I noticed Elder Mounteer from my mission starting to sit down. there wasn't time to talk and for some reason he was shirtless at this point. Mike was ahead of me at that point but I know he would save me a seat. At the top of the auditorium I went through a door to our theater (the movie we were seeing was Gladiator) and it turned out to be a small bedroom. There were a few beds (all filled with strangers except Mike on one end) and some mattresses strewn on the floor. I sat on one of the mattresses and tried to make myself comfortable.
date w/girl B in strange house, she leads me hurriedly up some stairs & into a corner so we can kiss. shortly, Justin from work & a friend come tromping up the stairs. I can tell girl is upset so I say, "Do you wanna get out of here?" and we go back down the steps. We come out into a very white, clean, modern-looking building, and I recognize it as an airport. There are 2 steel, slanting doors with handles at the bottom & girl gets through one. The doors seem to want to stay shut, but I manage to get one open & step inside a small room. There are some older ladies in there, too, and the place is steel & sloped, too. Very slippery. And I know it as an elevator or a transport of some kind - like a wonkavator. It starts to move & it's so fast we get to sliding around & against each other. The room will take us wherever we want to go, so I yell out "Florida!" and everyone around me seems to think that's a good idea too. Girl yells out some teen popstar's name, and her music starts to play.
We find ourselves in a large grassy yard with a medium-sized home not far away. We're all lying in the grass. A man in the yard has a baby pig on a leash, and approaches us. I know something's supposed to happen when one of our group touches the pig (like we're supposed to be whisked away again), but as Girl touches the pig, nothing does. They play for a minute. The pig wanders to the fence lining the yard & seems to freeze, then startle & start snorting. It runs back to the man. I notice a similar snort, but one coming from the direction of the front of the house. I turn to look, and see something move out of sight in the front of the yard. I lay down so I can see some of the front yard & inch my way toward the fence. Against the front of the house are Santa's reindeer, lying down. At this point things seem CG, like the movie Polar Express. There's a group of people gathered around. I walk up to them and somehow realize what's going on. One of the reindeer is sick & needs an operation, and the group leader has a list of people in the group & their monetary contribution towards saving the animal. By some people's name there's just written the word "s ly"[I started writing this word but couldn't quite remember it]. They're about $17,000 short of the needed funds. Santa turns around, reaches into the top drawer of a dresser, and pulls out the cash for the difference. I get a little angry because I know santa will require they (the group) pay him back for his "loan".
