It was a big deal. It was a huge event. Everyone was going, and I do mean everyone. My entire family was going. Essner, Spaeth, Droid, all my IRL friends were going. Most of my internet-style friends were flying in to go. This was a huge event!<\/p>\n<p>I wasn&#8217;t going.<\/p>\n<p>I started out okay with this, but soon, as I watched everyone gathering on the front lawn with all their stuff, I realized that kind of sucked. Soon, someone from work relinquished their spot. I could take it! I could go!<\/p>\n<p>I told my mother the good news.<br \/>\n&#8220;You can&#8217;t go. You have class.&#8221;<br \/>\nThis started a huge argument about how totally unfair that was, especially seeing as everyone else was going to miss class for this trip. Meanwhile, I knew the clock was ticking. Everyone was going to leave soon. I was arguing with my mother while she finished packing to go. I also realized that there are people waiting that I had never seen in person. Even if I failed to get to go, I needed to get out there and see Brer, and Cris, and Ecks, and all my good friends I&#8217;ve never seen in person before. But I was stuck in this argument. My mother kept seeming like she would give, but wouldn&#8217;t. I couldn&#8217;t figure out if it was futile to keep arguing or now.<\/p>\n<p>I woke up with all of this unresolved, and feeling very actually frustrated.<\/p>\n<p>I guess one could really analyze this dream. Something about how both my mother and school feel like they are keeping me away from fun and the people that I love. There&#8217;s probably some level of truth to that. Not an infinite amount, but some level. Either way, it was an extremely clear dream. I remember all kind of details. There was some sort of huge valve in the basement that Mom was shutting off to prepare for the trip, for example.<br \/>\nMan, I don&#8217;t know. I rarely have such serious dreams. I felt like sharing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yeah, this is a post about a dream. Last night, I dreamed that there was a huge trip going on. It was a big deal.
