now i've just begun re-remembering this dream so things might kind of come to me as i write, but i remember this:
i was with my family, and the dream started out in this very tiny house. the windows were all shut and there was hardly any light. and i was very hungry and we all were dressed in these really weird clothes. then i remember that the dream jumped to this big store. it was like a sam's club, because the floor was all that gross cement color and whatnot and the aisles were full of stuff. like completely stuffed with things. and everyone walking around was dressed really weird. like old fashioned, or in costumes. there were girls wearing big dresses and stuff like that. and there was a sign saying "no work clothes beyond this point". oh yeah, and the lights were dim here too. so i'm pretty sure my parents let me and my brothers wander off while they went shopping for other stuff and my brothers immediately ran off to one of the food aisles so i followed them and we were picking things up and saying how good these things sounded. and i remember i picked up these really good looking muffins and i was showing them to my brothers and we were talking about how good they sounded. oh they were blueberry muffins by the way, in case your wondering. smile anyhoo, then i looked at the price and the muffins were like $180! and i just stopped there and i asked them what was up with the price, and it was really weird how they were all clued in to this weird world but i wasnt, but they told me that it really wasnt all that much money because everyone had an insane amount, so really "back in the day" those muffins would equal only about four dollars. but the dollar bill had inflated or soemthing. soo..yeah, you figure that math out, but somehow it made sort of sense? this was a futuristic dream, just so you know. anyhow, i was still shocked over the crazy expensive muffins and started looking for other, cheaper food, because i figured that my brothers had lost it and there was no way in heck we could afford those muffins. but EVERYTHING i picked up had really really expensive prices. it was so weird! eventually, my dad came along, saying something about how we needed to buy new costumes. that made me kind of happy, because i was admiring some of the old fashioned dresses that the other women were wearing. but when we walked into this costume room place it was so dark. come to think of it, the costumes may have disappeared once we went in there. but we went in and then these huge doors shut behind us. and then the costume room was completely dark. and i was kind of freaking out, asking them why would the lights be gone? and they said that the weirdo government had put restrictions on pretty much everything, how we dress, how much food we can eat every week, and when we could see the sky or the light. isn't that crazy?! eventually my mom came into the dark room and then i helped her find some sort of food that we could manage to live off of for the week and then as they were checking out of the store i'm pretty sure i woke up then. it's hard to tell, because last night i woke up every hour. no, i'm not kidding, every hour i would wake up! it was pretty aggravating, but it didnt take me long to fall asleep like it usually does, so i just dealt with it.
so...wow. i just scrolled up to see how much space i used and wow. that took me a long time to write it. oh well, signing off for now,
