DREAM: Turquoise Interior

Stan and I were in an older, established residential neighborhood that was younger than ours, houses maybe built in the 20s-40s. We were looking at one brown/dark tan brick two story with a somewhat acutely sloping roofline that had a sign in front of it that said "2 bedroom for rent". We figured it might be a duplex because the house looked larger than a two bedroom. We went to view the house--either the present owners or tenants or landlords were showing it around. Inside it was rather dimly lit with turquoise colored decor from the mid-century. In the living room was this weird area on the floor. It looked like they had some kind of plastic mat on the floor, like they were using the room as a swimming pool. I saw this weird glowing haze that had a bunch of bugs in it, floating above the floor. It freaked me out a bit. Eventually the flies dispersed. We went upstairs; there were in fact two bedrooms up there, but downstairs there were more rooms than they had showed us. I walked around the first floor and found at least two more bedrooms, one that had a bunch of kittens in it. We started talking to the people in the house as far as what we needed to know to rent it. For some reason Stan was avoiding the issue of price. I knew that the house was going to be beyond our means because despite the weird flies in the living room swimming pool thing, it was a really nice house. I didn't bring up the subject of price because I was afraid Stan would get mad at me as he must have been keeping hush on the subject for a reason.

Of course in dreams like this I never logically think, "why would I need a house? I already have one!" Logic and rational sometimes seems to be absent in dreams. Watching a video clip of the tornados in Iowa the other day made me remember some reocurring dreams I'd have where I see a tornado outside and I run in the house but the tornado chases me inside, and all around the house. I have lots of tornado dreams, dreams where I look out every window of the house and there is a tornado to be seen, dreams where I can practically touch the tornado and it appears to be made out of black fishing line or brillo pads. Sometimes I forget my tornado dreams and don't remember to write them down. Just like the dreams I have about driving around the non-existent Fort Collins (I think I had one of those just recently, driving on the southwest side in the country), they're almost too common to stand out to remember the following morning. They're like an underlying subtext, or a bassline or drumbeat--my dreamtime's rhythm section as opposed to distinct melodies.

I like the music analogy in terms of structures in dreams that come back over and over. I think the dreams that happen in a rythum section form are important because they must be reflecting something deep in our personalities - perhaps anyway.

Thank you for not bringing up price because I was surely planning to offer much less than the asking price. After all the real estate bubble is breaking fast.

I figured there was a reason you were ignoring the most obvious thing! ;-) It's weird that despite how illogical dreams can be, and that these irrationalities don't set off any red flags, like "wait a minute, that doesn't make any sense, we already have a house," we can still use some sorts of forethought and planning in our dreams.

Posted by Ann @ 11:15:2005:06:08 PM CST

I think your dreams demand some forthought and planning because they frequently seem to be prepairing us for the future. We are all connected to the spirit world somehow.

Posted by Stan @ 11:15:2005:06:12 PM CST

I hope this one doesn't have anything to do about the future, that's all I can say. I don't want to move!

Posted by Ann @ 11:15:2005:06:17 PM CST

I don't want to move only because moving is so difficult, but I am open to the possibility. No matter how you look at it is really unlikely that we could afford to live right where we are for the rest of our lives. Well, considering the average life span.

Posted by Stan @ 11:15:2005:06:20 PM CST

Stuff like this is very depressing.

Posted by Ann @ 11:15:2005:06:22 PM CST

Sorry - I love you.

Posted by Stan @ 11:15:2005:06:23 PM CST

Your mother and I have hired a motovational speaker to try and help you with your attitude. See you mom and I are worried that your not listening to your parents anymore and so we thought this speaker might get through to you somehow...

It seems that you are spending too much time working on your computer and not watching TV with the rest of us.

It really bugs me that I can't remember the name of that Chris Farley character. All I know is that he based it on some childhood friend who later became a priest or something.

You know, sometimes I can be so dumb when the obvious is staring me in the face.

Google is your answer to everything: chris farley motivational speaker:

The answer is Matt Foley.
