8/30 – Flying school bus

For some reason I’m at a Best Buy type electronics store in DC. I quickly peruse all the useless gadgets there and decide there’s nothing worth purchasing. I leave the store and get onto a bus to get to the metro, but the bus is a school bus and takes off with its airplane wings and jet engines. I find nothing wrong with this because it seems pretty cool that I’m on a flying school bus. I ask where the bus is headed and someone say Stranton, MD in northern Montgomery county, and once again having never heard of Stranton, MD and me living in Arlington, VA didn’t bother me because I’m in a flying school bus.

The bus stops somewhere and everyone’s herded into an office building where we’re sitting in a circle and a guy in a suiting starts talking to us. I think he’s trying to sell time share or something. Obviously I’m bored, so I look around the people in the circle and start some sort of graph-theory type plan in my head on who’s most likely to go pair off and start having sex. The time share guy takes a break and everyone goes to get coffee or something, and I naturally gravitate towards a window. When I look out the windows and see large fissures opening on the ground below and millions of imp demon monsters pour out of them. The imp monsters start killing people so I tell everyone we need to block the doors, and then I wake up.

8/24 – Capital One the Chinese restaurant

I still work at Capital One but instead of a credit card company it’s a Chinese restaurant. We have two stone crates shaped like Styrofoam coolers outside for the people that want the buffet. One of the crates has vegetarian food in it, I think it was bok choy, and the other had some sort of chicken with brown sauce. Before dinner time starts, I empty the buffet crates into containers to be stored. Somehow I discover the vegetarian crate had smoked sausages at the bottom. My real co-worker Ran comes out and I ask if I should clean the crates, but he says we never clean them. I thought that was disgusting so I do clean them.

Later another real co-worker Onkar comes out and tells me to put menus in the crates, so I had to run a Polaris NPV model with the appropriate risk factors to produce the menus. He then tells me what defines a jr. and sr. analyst is how experienced he is with our models, and I tell him all the models do is produce the food menus.

When dinner time is about to start, Ran, Onkar, and I are sitting on an outside patio table and a gay man and his almost human sized gay dog comes to the restaurant. He asks if he can wrestle with his dog inside the restaurant. My co-workers and I just looked at each other because we all thought that was pretty weird. I was going to tell him yes because I really didn’t care what he wanted to do. A manager comes out and tells the guy that we’re kind of a family establishment and the man agrees to not wrestle and goes with his dog to the bar and starts sipping on cosmopolitans, that how I concluded they must be gay.

8/20 – The bee with the flickering bluish white LED style tail light

The one where I'm somewhere I've never been before. I join an academic decathlon type school organization and somehow become boyfriend girlfriend with a hot indie chick. The decathlon organizer is a crazy middle aged lady that would scream at me and tell me to go kill myself whenever I answered a question. I then find out that it’s because my green cloth woven bracelet was broken when I pull it out of my pocket. Until mid-way through the dream I think she’s the antagonist, but some secret underground organization comes around and kills her.

After she’s gone, things still don’t feel right. I end up in the library where I’m talking to a librarian like in that movie Behind the Mask-something-something-Leslie Vernon. The librarian says it’s my girlfriend who has some sort of evil spirit within her. Next thing I know she pops out of nowhere and I grab her by both feet and start swinging her by her feet like a baseball bat into the library cabinets and shelves. After doing that for a couple minute, which I assume if this were real life the girl would be dead, a bee with a flickering bluish white LED looking tail light appears and the librarian says that’s the evil spirit. I somehow find a flip-flop and try to kill the bee, but after hitting it several times it doesn’t die. That's when I wake up.
