I had a dream the other night that Dan and I were going to look for a house to rent or buy. We found this perfect house with a huge yard. It was a Victorian. We went inside and I couldn't believe this would be in our price range. I asked Dan how much it was, he said $4300/month. I shook my head at him, but he said "we can swing it". His idea was to break the house into halves and rent out the other half. Except instead of having 2 separate units it would just be sharing the house with strangers. I was not happy about this idea.
We started touring the house and it was gorgeous until we got to the upper levels. The rooms got smaller and smaller with pitched ceilings. Literally crawling through hallways on our stomachs from room to room. I thought to myself, there is NO way I can live here. I am so claustrophobic. Dan didn't seem to mind and he is taller than me so I didn't say much, maybe I was being dramatic.
The people who owned the house were having a party outside, they invited us to enjoy some barbecue with them. Dan left and crawled through the doorway and down the hall. I tried to follow him but got stuck in the small hall. And I never did get any of that barbecue.

Orbit the Moon Once.
A few days ago I had a dream that I won a sweepstakes and a trip to orbit the moon once on a newly invented "rocket plane". It seated about 30 people, 2 seats on each side of the aisle. I told them I wanted to think about the trip because I was scared of flying and wanted Dan to come with me. The trip was also a month and I needed time to prepare. They told me the plane was leaving right now and I had no time to think about it. I got on and everyone else had someone with them. The seat next to me for my guest was empty. I called Dan and he told me how dangerous he thought it was and that I shouldn't go but it was too late. The plane took off into space, I could feel the force of the flight pushing me back in the seat. I was terrified and I knew it'd be at least a month til I could get home again. We got up to the moon, came around the far side on our return path. The lights went out, our engines failed. Oxygen masks came down but no air was flowing. We floated silently. I was sad because I knew I'd never see Dan again.
