Happened again last night. Another weird dream.

Much of it has now faded, but I remember that my mother, my father, and I were all living back in the house in which I grew up. I could see Mother clearly, and I remember her telling me that she and my father were getting a divorce ( :o My parents did not divorce; they were married 40 years when my mother died.). Then I went to meet my father at a big old Victorian house, where he had to meet someone to whom he owed money. There was a large room in the house where people were sitting around on folding chairs listening to a man and a woman play music on violins. I didn't want to disturb the concert, but I couldn't find my father. I went outside the house, to the front lawn, which had a large circular driveway, and I realized that my dad had left without me. I tried to call him on my cell phone, but I couldn't get him to answer his cell phone.

Tell you what, I had no weird dreams--no dreams at all that I remembered--the whole of the short time I was visiting OCD.  ???

Hmmm....that's interesting.

I occasionally I have dreams where I've lost my car, but I always find it in the end.

Well, this isn't a dream, but somehow it seems appropriate to me to post it here.

This morning on my way to work, I was standing at the bus stop, when I noticed a quarter lying in the street face up. I picked it up, and when I turned it over, it was a "Wyoming" quarter!  :D

An omen of some kind, and of what kind?

Oh, that's kinda cool!  Nice!  Take it as a good omen, and keep it aside.  ;D

From what you write, in this dream you are coming up to face your parents' failures in the past. And in other dreams, there were authority figures, bosses and the like, who you felt led you in circles or on a nowhere or wrong path. What the subcontext might be, if I read it correctly, is that you are realizing now that you need to set your own path and not rely on others.

I wonder if you would have liked to listen to the violin concert in the large Victorian house if you hadn't been preoccupied with reconnecting with your father?

Perhaps, if they were playing something Baroque.

Well, we've been talking about weird dreams, I had a most unusual one last night.

I dreamed that I was someone's prisoner, as was a large group of people.  In this group were some Brokies, but the rest were strangers.

We were all dressed up for a formal event, but prisoners.  We were escorted to a large swimming pool, and pushed in.  It was full of chili, and we were to be cooked and eaten with the chili.

I have no idea what this means, where it came from, and I swear, I didn't have anything spicy before bed.  :laugh:

I really don't know why your dream reminded me of that song, but it did. Especially the part that says, "I've been pushed down, I've been pushed round"... It seems in your dream that the people were all dressed up and made to believe that they would have a good time, but instead were herded up and dumped into a pot of chili to be eaten by giant monsters (zombies?)
