Things We Lost In The Fire.

The last night or two I've been having dreams about water. Strangely, I can remember them. I searched for the meaning of water in dreams, but a lot of the sites that came up seem like complete bullshit. I don't trust much on the internet. These seemed to make sense though: overwhelming emotional stress/difficulties in emotional situations.

First dream:
I’m at a festival, and it’s been raining the whole time. For some reason, I’m being driven around in a vehicle. I don’t really know what it is only that I’m looking out of a window as I slowly progress past various places. We stop at a Go-Kart track, which is completely submerged, but there are people who are somehow driving around the track, through the water. I decide to try my hand at driving, but end up sinking underwater and not going anywhere. Someone buys a sausage in bread and gives half to me, half to someone else.

Second dream:
I’m in a phone box, and it’s raining. The water is rising around us, and we can’t get out. Inside is fine, but outside the water is rising up the clear glass walls. We decide to have sex, but I’m too ashamed that someone might see. After a while, we do it anyway.

Third dream:
I’m working in an office block, or more specifically just one floor space which is raised above a mass of water. All around the walls are made of glass, and I can see that we are surrounded by water. There is no door leading outside. There is a big office at the end of the room – that’s where my boss is. There are a few other smaller offices that are walled off, but everything is made of glass, so I can see into them. I can also see into my boss’s office. I’m working in one of the smaller offices when my boss calls me into her office. She yells at me because I’m doing something wrong. I go back to my office and try again. She calls me back in and yells at me again. I return to my office and look out at the water. There’s a crack in my window.

I think I'd like to remember more dreams.
