(I wrote the following in the middle of the night, the first night we arrived here in Fort Myers.)
I went to get some paper from the notebook I carried in and there were no blank pages left. The quiz was only two questions. I saw Chris, the guy next to me handed his quiz in and left. He was a guy I worked with several years ago. I then realized the quiz was only two questions, the first one was simple, the second one was about politics. I really wanted to answer the questions and kept asking around for anyone with extra paper.
Then instead of missing paper, I was missing a pencil. While I was scrounging around for the pencil, the teacher told me not to bother. That Chris was the only one who turned in a paper, so she wasn't counting the quiz anyway.
But I really wanted to complete the quiz, since I'm a political junky.
Then, instead of it being a class, I realized I was at my job. For some strange reason I had to go into work at 9:30 at night but it had been tough trying to figure out where to park because I didn't know where the classroom was in this big university.
It was supposed to be a quick trip into work, but before I knew it, it was 12:30 a.m. I saw the company President leaving. Which was a guy I worked with last year. I ended up working until 1:30 and he was already coming back into work. I found this odd since he barely worked an eight hour day in real life.
I was heading out of the building trying to find the right exit, when I was talking to a couple girls and they were looking out at the roof of another building at one of our better looking coworkers. It seemed to have been an enjoyable pastime.
As I was trying to figure my way back to wherever it was I parked the car, I was wheeling a cart, much like the one we used to carry in our suitcases in the hotel Saturday night. I was going to use the cart to step up into our SUV. Two male coworkers that I didn't recognize got into the elevator with me and for some strange reason they made me a bit nervous. they didn't want me to have the cart and I felt like I was going to need it for protection against them. They told me I could use their small step stool to get in my car and they wheeled the cart off the elevator. I worried I wouldn't be able to use the step stool to throw at them if I needed to.
I told them I needed the step stool for the truck because I had back surgery. I have never had back surgery, but Bob did last year.
I didn't end up using the cart, either for protection or for stepping up into the car. When I got in the passenger seat, I was trying to figure out how Bob knew what time to pick me up since I hadn't called him to tell him I was ready. Nothing came to mind that I had driven myself to work, so why would he be picking me up.
We were driving through a small town between our house and the grocery I like to go through when I realized that we had Bob's ex-wife in the car with us.
I woke up to the sound of the sprinklers going off outside our bedroom window which we left open last night.
My dreams never make any sense at all.

Every night is a questionable fracas of old jobs, old husband, new husband, kittens needing saved and alligators rising out of the sidewalks. Meanwhile, I'm running.
I literally fight to stay awake until around 2am. These dreams are nightly. Or maybe it's just Florida?
Maybe you should cut the tab of acid in half next time..
