dreams,

i had the oddest dream last night.. which thinking about now, brings me to tears.

i had a dream that i was driving in my car, my red 325 bmw, and i stop at an old friend’s house to hang out. i park illegally and a cop ends up showing up and gives me a ticket. he tells me, “if you ran out here a little faster, i would have stopped writing the ticket and let you park properly. go find a new parking spot anyways.” in tears (in my dream) i get into my car with my ticket clinched in my right hand and drive off, leaving my date at my friend’s house. it’s dark outside and i am driving around val vista lakes, which is pretty scary sometimes, regardless if it’s in the middle of gilbert. i see something walking in the middle of the road and it’s a little puppy. for some reason, i speed up and the pup goes underneath my car as i drive past. not having gotten harmed, the pup jumps onto the sidewalk and i pull over to the side of the road and open up my passenger door. i make a little noise to get the pup’s attention and tell him to get in and he does. and he sits on my lap. i drive off and eventually find a parking spot, which ends up being like two miles away from my friend’s house. i get out and start walking. it’s still really dark, like pitch black and i’m holding the pup in my arms. all of a sudden, a man walks out of the trees/bush and starts walking beside me. i kind of panic and look at his face and i feel like my heart drops. it’s my uncle, who passed away in September of 2001. He was really young when he died but in my dream he was an old man. As I was about to ask him if it was really him, it’s like he read my mind and told me not to ask. So I started crying and he told me not to cry. He walked me all the way back to my friend’s house and then disappear. And then I woke up.

it was the craziest dream ever.. to see my uncle again, i cannot even describe how that feels. i don’t even know how to describe how i’m feeling now.
