I have been having some weird dreams lately. I normally don't talk about dreams but these ones are odd. First of all, I had a series of dreams where I always ended up naked, and unable to remember why I took off my clothes, or where I put them, even though they were in obvious places. For example, I would go into a bathroom and come out naked. Where were my clothes? I dunno. So I would walk around a little bit trying to "blend in" and then decide to try the bathroom again. Thing is, I never actually took off my clthes, they would just disappear, and then reappear when I realized I was naked and needed clothes. Everyone who saw me naked seemed used to it. "Oh, there's JP again. Naked as usual." I was in an ersatz Brockville much of the time, as if that makes any difference.
I was also involved with youth somehow. I remember trying to brainstorm with them as to what kind of fundraising event or show we could put on. I was in a classroom at night. I remember the look and feel of this classroom. 80s modern, with grays and fluorescence everywhere. A place where I felt extremely comfortable. I really used to love school. But when I wasn't with them, I was Mr. Forgetmyclothes, bumbling around like an idiot.
Another series of dreams felt like I was part of a sitcom, and Two and a Half Men sounds like the closest one to my dream. Some key things:
| Compare | Contrast |
|---|---|
| Yes, there was an estranged mother. I think Alan wants to get back with her, not sure. | I wanted nothing more than to avoid this woman for the rest of my life. She scared me. I don't know how much of a contrast this is, because I have only seen the show twice. |
| They had issues such as "Does Jake love his father?" or "Will that crazy neighbour ever leave Charlie alone?" | My main problem was finding work (hmm...) and hiding the crack and/or cocaine habit from my ex-wife. |
| Jake's problems also included homework and a dorky father. | Not a crack and/or cocaine problem of his own, the only real bonding time he had with his father (or was I the boy's uncle? Uncle Dad?). We'd trade tips about how to avoid the bitch's suspicion. Good family times. |
I wouldn't even know where to begin on analysing these dreams. Want to take a shot at it?
