also, boy was it a weird dream, I remembered the first part but now I forgot it

there was a part where we entered a building that belonged to our neighbours and it was really weird inside, there was some small tunnel I wanted to explore but at the same time I didn't, and more weird crap

there was a lot to this dream but I only remember a few parts (as usual)



one part happens in the court in front of our house, the gate is open, there's some kind of carnaval/party happening in the streets with people throwing flour and eggs and whatnot (there was a lot of flour, the street looks like it's covered in it, or just foggy, dunno)

eventually people from a weird car throw eggs at me, I try to dodge them with moderate success

apparently I manage to catch some and later try to throw them at a car passing in the street, they land on the windshield but leave almost no trace



another part is me on my bed, trying to fix my phone (what I plan to do... once I get the needed parts)

I have started taking it apart, the motherboard is exposed, but it's still running with battery inserted, and I mess with it

at some point, I separate the screen from the rest and turn it on, which is where shit goes haywire

it turns on but it's weird, the background is a yellowish white instead of the normal blue background, then all of a sudden the display turns into a pattern of corrupted crap (a grid of weird black dots on a white background) along with a weird loud sound

I think I must have shorted something, immediate reaction is "turn it off" although I try doing so with the power button instead of, uh, removing the battery; I don't have much time to do anything either way because I promptly wake up

the sound stuck out like a sore thumb because the dream was mostly silent, and it scared the shit out of me, waking me up

moar dreams

I remember a few details, like wandering around in a pretty nice vacation hotel that we own (we don't own a hotel, but uh, whatever)

another part involves a bunch of computers on a table, there's a guy on the left using one, and I try to do things, the computers are pretty old

I want to hook my laptop to one of the monitors, it's a CRT and not even VGA (it's some older thing that goes through connectors similar to the headset connectors)

there's a similarly ancient computer with weird interfaces, it's in a weird slim tower format and rumbles when running

there's a more recent computer, looking like those Dell desktops from circa 2005, it runs Windows XP, it has the default XP background and theme and a bunch of weird software installed (the desktop is like 55% full of icons)

one of my latest dreams involved me being in Fort Boyard, near the "Salle du Trésor"

the tigers where there too, and due to whatever mistake, they were able to get to me, one of them started attacking me

at that point I apparently decided that nope, I don't want to be torn apart by a tiger, and woke up

but amusingly this wasn't a nightmare like the previous phone-related dream, I just woke up normally and the dream didn't feel dire at all

I remember the end of this dream


Walking in the streets at evening, I want to enter a bank for whatever reason, but it's closing and the guards tell me to move away.

I cross the street, get to a place that is fucking crowded, the people are excited. At first, it looks like another bank, and they really want in for whatever reason. But it turns out it's much more than that.

People are excited to board onto some giant platform thing that moves up (flying?) and gives them an awesome trip. I see it take off...

Then it's our turn (turns out that now I'm accompanied by my sister(?) and a small guy). The guy tells us to hurry up. We get onto the thing on time for some of the last seats. I'm facing the guy and my sister is on my left.

Seats, well... that's a weird security device. You're supposed to place your calves in two holes in some sort of box while sitting down. The holes are small, my calves barely fit in that shit. We get seated anyway and the thing starts moving...

It moves over the street then straight up. It's amazing.

Then, what the fuck. It's somehow flying in one of the rooms of my house. That room had some repairs to its walls, there were cracks and parts broken off so it was all fixed using... dirt. Or maybe some weird cement thing that looks like dirt.

Then weirder shit happens...

There was another interesting dream that I remembered before this one, but now I forgot about it.


So, the last one.

We're in the car, heading back home. Road is unusual though. Dad talks about issues he has at work with certain people.

On the way, a house is on fire. Firemen are trying to put it out. Dad gets worried about it because the people who own that house are related to his issues at work, and they could think that the fire was his fault.

We get to home. Sure enough, weird people are in front of the garage doors, waiting for us. We lock ourselves in the big garage, I have some trouble closing the door but it's closed in time, the weird guys aren't fast anyway. I worry about the wall separating the big garage from the small one (that wall has a notch where it's like 2m high, which is also present in the dream), the small garage was left open and the weird guys are in it too (yet, the other side of the wall is completely dark).

The weird guys don't try anything to get us... they're just there. Weird that noone considers calling the cops, either.

At some point the big garage has another wall and an old hardwood floor connected to it (which don't exist), Dad goes there and it's completely dark. I worry about the floor but it seems strong enough (some of those floors in this house were rotten, so eh).

fulla weird shit...


at some point I'm in a bus with schoolmates, we're chatting and joking about things and generally having fun, the bus is the kind with many comfy seats, dunno where we're going

I also read a small instruction sheet destined to bus drivers, that describes how to operate a bus transmission (instructions like "tap R and tap 1-6 to reverse" and some more involved shit). It doesn't seem to apply to the specific bus I'm in, though, as it sounds like this one has a manual transmission.


at another point I'm in my grandparents' living room and (urgl) I bought a Mac. Seems to be a Macbook Air. The password to it is the same that I use on my laptops. I don't know much of what the interface is like, I mostly use it to browse the web. It has a bunch of special keys/buttons for things like "iTouch" (Mac with touchscreen??).

I think that one of the advantages is that it autoconnects to the wifi (my grandparents don't have internet and even less a wifi, but ok whatever). But wait, the PC does that too. (said PC is close to me and is my old laptop)

eventually, sure enough, I get a bit annoyed by the Mac's chpechial hipster keyboard while trying to type things.
