Fred's dreams

Bed

November 20, 2009
I dream I am living in a dorm with my roommate, Eric. Our room is a mess and there are several loose pretzels on his bed. Eric is inspired and suggests that we enhance our web site with snack-related features. I leave the room with my suitcase and stumble into a “happening” performed by students dressed as doctors. I am wearing my C-PAP mask and chin strap, so I look like a mummy. I try to sit in the bleachers, but the folks dressed as doctors insist I participate.

I dream I am renting a room from people who at the beginning of the dream are Asian and by the end of the dream are Greek. The house is a mess and various servants are encouraging me to clean up. As the day progresses, I see that the servants are removing furniture. I don’t know where they are putting everything. I turn on the shower and the nozzle is pointing out into the room–someone has used my shower to wash the room. And then I notice my bed is missing. I ask the landlord if she is planning to send me to a hotel, and she finds this very funny. “Yeah,” she says, “we’re going to send you to a hotel.”

I dream I’m at an underwear party in Jackie’s bedroom, in which five of us are feeding each other chocolate and giving each other massages. Suddenly we hear someone coming. Jackie and I stay seated on the bed while the three other people hide behind the door. Jackie’s mother enters. She doesn’t notice anything because our underwear is not all that revealing, and she starts to talk about the high price of the new Raspberry Devil Dogs. Then she notices the people behind the door and scolds us for having an underwear party. I try to diffuse the situation by agreeing that the price of the Raspberry Devil Dogs is outrageous.

“Fred’s Dreams” appears every Wednesday.
