Last night I dreamt that I was sitting in a minivan in my back yard in Abingdon. There were several people in the van, including EmilySarah. We heard this roaring sound overhead that sounded like a jet, but it was too loud to be a plane. We looked out the windows and saw that it was a space shuttle orbiting around the general vicinity of my house. Next door to my house (where the Smiths house is in real life), there was a fenced in parking lot. The rocket landed landed in the parking lot, but another car was in the rocket’s parking space. That car ended up getting towed so the rocket could park. I got out my cell phone to text Mary and ask, “What’s better, a rocket orbiting your house, or returning to your car to find that it has been towed to make room for a rocket?”
EmilySarah said that she was going to send Mary the same text, and that she was going to get it sent first. She pulled out a Blackberry and started typing the message. I knew EmilySarah was a faster texter than I was, so I gave it up and closed my phone. Just as EmilySarah was about the send the text, she accidentally pressed the wrong button and erased the message. We both decided we weren’t going to bother typing the message again. That’s all I remember.

I had another dream that I was watching the documentary segment from Rescue 911 where a man accidentally hangs himself. In the real-life version, the cameras roll up with the ambulance after the man has been taken down. In the dream, the cameras arrived while the man was still hanging, but they only showed from his forehead up while he was being taken down from the rope.

I can’t remember clearly how my last dream started off. I was looking out the window of a beach house in Hawaii, and was looking at the ocean. There was some kind of voiceover narration, saying something about how it was too late in the day and/or season to swim because of dangerous weather. Later, I was hiking to different swimming holes with a pretty girl who had reddish-brown hair. Every time we would get out of a swimming hole, she would turn away from me and she wouldn’t face me until she had put her makeup on. I told her I wanted to see what she looked like without makeup, but she refused. At the last swimming hole, I found out that this was because she was alien, and she had been putting on skin-colored face makeup so that I wouldn't notice how inhumanly pale she looked. Once I found this out, I finally saw her face (which looked basically the same, except white) as she ran off down the trail and then got sucked into a spaceship waiting overhead by a tractor beam. It was established that she had some sort of mission of mission while on Earth; she was supposed to either be spying on humans or seizing something/someone to be taken back to her ship for study purposes. That’s all I remember.
