Morning of Thursday, December 13th

I dreamt that I was watching the pilot episode of I Love Lucy. It was in color and an hour long. There was a flat building roof with a low wall around the edge and I was rolling balls around on it. Back at my parents' house, I dug my hand down into the garbage disposal and pulled out all sorts of crap, including some fine sponges.

Morning of Friday, December 14th

I was rolling around downtown east on my inline skates. I think the idea was to circumnavigate the capitol a few blocks out, so that at one point I was where in real life a King Street would be, but in the dream there was a parking ramp that I was standing on top of and the road coming from the northeast passed under. While I was hanging out there Chase and some of her friends came by on that lower road, themselves on skates. At some point in time or along the continuum of alternate universes I found myself inside the structure I had been standing on, possibly attempting to repair my skates because a wheel had come off (as is the condition of my skates in real life). Chase and I ran into each other and we said a brief hello and something about the conditions of the roads. I was ready to leave it at that but then thought to myself, "you probably won't see her again anyway, so why not just up and ask if she'd like to go out with you again?", which I did, to which I'm pretty sure she replied "no", but by then I was already headed back out and did not care.

Morning of Saturday, December 15th

For some reason I was riding in the same car with Barack Obama. I kept staring at him. Someone pointed that out to me, but I already knew I was doing it. It was embarrassing.

Morning of Sunday, December 16th

There was this old, nonfunctional roller coaster at an amusement park (this amusement park also had newer ones that were working fine). Part of it ran along a road on top of a hill at one side of the park. The track was very different from modern coasters in that it was a flat floor with walls on the sides. I was telling someone who was with me and had some association with the park that I thought it'd be cool if they got that ride working, again. The track along the road was in really bad shape (it had been repurposed for various things) and there were other big parts of it that would obviously need to be completely rebuilt.

I jumped off a cliff into a small ocean inlet with all my clothes on. But I was wearing my wool sweater, and that made it okay. And the saltiness of the water made staying afloat easy. I swam across to a cave on the other side, where some friend(s) were. We had done some work on that part of the cave, so maybe there were lights and a door.

Morning of Tuesday, December 18th

Governor Christie was slicing up a cheesecake that somehow represented all the unionized workers in New Jersey. I was there with him and we were doing this ceremonious thing where we'd place a yardstick into a gap in the cake (I guess a piece would've been removed) pointing at the center and then name one union. I think there were muppets involved, and maybe some driving.

Towards the end of these dreams I was with Sarah and Hannah and we were talking about fat people (my notes don't say what we were talking about, but I think it was fat people) as we walked along an ithsmus. The vague body of water surrounding us became a swimming pool with a very high edge that people would dive off of. After I got to the top, some guy up there threw a radish into the water, and I dove in after it with all my clothes on. I was able to swim despite wearing my winter boots.

YC is visiting. Now that I finally got all these written down maybe I'll try to sleep again.
