I dream I am in a glass elevator in the tallest building in Beijing. It terrifies me to go up to the top. Nevertheless, I stay in the elevator and go to the top repeatedly. I am working as some kind of celebrity support staff and I am in the elevator with a columnist who has diamond encrusted eyeballs.

I dream I am in an elevator at school and a young tough who is pretending to be oblivious blocks the elevator door and keeps it from closing. I ask him, “Would you please move?” He pretends not to hear me. I ask him again and I see him smile mischievously. I scream out, “Security!” and fortunately a security person comes towards us. The young tough leaves and the elevator moves. I wonder what I’ll do when the young tough comes back for retribution. I decide on a large ball bearing as a weapon.

I dream I am in a bus in NYC, and I spot through a second floor window a busy shelf with magic equipment on it. I get out of the bus. On my way over, I meet a man who informs me that I won’t be allowed in there unless I prove to them that I am a real magician. I am not concerned. When I go into the building they let me right in. I climb up onto a desk in a shallow elevator that looks like a flat office. When I get to the second floor, I see that it’s not only magic stuff, but it’s all weird and rare. A saleswoman shows me a collection of lighting gels with the names of different magicians on them. She also shows me lengths of rope that were used by various magicians and celebrities. I am impressed by the Ethel Merman rope.
