non-lucid

ANOTHER LUCID DREAM YAY!!!

I was on a trip and there were many people with me. I didn't know them, both in real life and in my dream, so I kept my distance. We were walking around in this small village, it was small and even a little poor. Then, we ran into this big, gorgeous house. They said it was Lea Michele's house and I was, of course, very interested.

I wondered if she was there, then I felt creepy for looking at her house for so long, so I turned around and walked away. As I was walking, I saw lots of the people who lived there. I was scared of them, even though they didn't do anything.

Suddenly, I saw kids shouting and falling on the floor in obvious pain. My dad called my name, I turned around and saw him. He said that all the kids there were going through the same thing. I instantly knew what it was: they were turning into werewolves.

My dad agreed with me and said he'd get some plants that might help them. I said I had to do something else and... ran to Lea's house. I got there and the house was different. It looked like nobody was there, but I rang the bell and shouted that it was an emergency.

Lea appeared at the balcony, asking me what was going on. I told her that it might sound crazy, but I was pretty sure her neighbours were turning into werewolves. She didn't hear me, so asked me to repeat. I felt stupid for saying that again, but I did.

For some reason (probably because she's flawless), she opened the gate for me. She got someone to go check the village, a woman, and then she looked very interested in me. I apologised for being so creepy, but she was very calm and seemed quite happy that I was there. She said she was making something to eat and invited me to help.

We went to the kitchen and the woman and my dad were there. They said five kids had died, and that meant that it couldn't be a werewolf thing, but we still had to be careful... as in maybe those kids' bodies had rejected the werewolf gene or whatever.

Lea told me to check the food stuff and I went over there and looked at the lots of food. She hugged me from behind and she kept touching my hands and my arms. Then, she took some cotton and started cleaning my ear (?), which was weird, but I let her do it since she's Lea. She was also kissing my neck sometimes, so who cares if that's her idea of foreplay?

Anyway, then she asked me to wash the salad while she cleaned my ear. I said okay, even though I didn't even know what to take. I took a small pot, brought it close to my face. I realised I wasn't wearing my glasses, and that's why I couldn't see well. Lea made fun of me by taking another little pot and putting it in front of my face. It was the water one.

I laughed and she laughed and it was magical. I took the little pot. I saw some cheese slices there, so I started throwing water on them and then washing them. It felt very stupid, but Lea was now just hugging me and kissing my neck.

HOLD ON A SEC! I'm at Lea Michele's house cause kids outside might be turning into werewolves, I'm washing cheese and she's totally into me. Hmmm... DREAM!!!

I stopped washing the cheese and looked at Lea. I told her I had to go cause I had tasks and it was the last night of the competition. She pouted a little and said she'd miss me. I kissed her on the lips and told her I'd REALLY miss her too.

I left the kitchen and saw a tiny table with a glass on it. I laughed, cause wow. My mind really wanted me to get things done. I told myself that my first task was to move something, so I raised my hand at the glass and made it float. It was super easy and I put it back on the table.

I walked a bit more and I was in the middle of the living room. Now I knew I had to summon DragonMaster21 for the pocket task. I shouted DRAGONMASTER a few times, but nothing happened. I focused on his avatar picture and I could see it. Still wasn't able to summon him.

Woke up.

Things I remember:
•Sitting in town playing on my laptop and everyone staring at me.
•I remember having 4 lessons of school then skipping the 5th and going home but there was two flats, we were on the bottom half but you had to go past the top floor to get to the bottom and the woman told me off
•We had a conservatory and I sat in there playing video games.

The next bit I remember is going to school and me and Beth were at my old school and it was the end of the day then Beth said "Steph, I swear that guy is staring at us... Look!" And I looked discreetly and he was staring at us it was really creepy but he was walking into the school! So we hid behind something and he came over to collect his son from school and I realised it was BriBry! Then he turned into a Mexican guy and started taking pictures and he took a pic where I was smiling then said I had a 'double barrel' or something which meant I go crossed eyed whenever I have a face on picture. That's all I remember from there.

Then next I remember going to school like halfway in the day and talking to Beth, she told me one of my friends had been flirting with my crush as usual Omg I was so annoyed I was like "Beth why did you have to say that seriously..." And she said sorry then we went to the hall to have some photos taken with the whole year group, I was crying and trying to cover my face cause I didn't want my crush to see but he did argh he was sitting at the back and I went and sat at the front next to Laura Churchyard but the teachers moved us onto the window ledge. After everyone was in place they handed out paper plates and we had to put fake blood on them cause it was a Halloween shoot. We all held them up and went "raagh!" At the same time it was pretty cool though I probably looked a mess since I was crying. Anyways after that this little African boy came up to me and because he needed money he was selling grape juice. He asked me to at least try it and said "Do you want ham or lettuce?" And there was actually those two flavours it was grape and lettuce that I chose because I thought maybe you couldn't really taste the lettuce and I was right! It tasted like Ribena and I drank the whole cup then my mum arrived and gave him £7 for the juice lol. Well that's all I remember so bye :3

(Part 1/2)

0500 - Some other friends and I are riding trains through three countries. The last country is Italy, and one of the others may have been France. It was probably a weekend, because as we were traveling, T mentioned how I wasn't going to be able to finish my homework. I thought of Mr H and how I didn't have him anymore for history. The thought of homework filled me with that "ugh" feeling, though, so I stopped thinking about it.

In the second country or so, I was on the platform with several other friends. We were trying to get on the train, but we were on different platforms. I leaped from one to the middle platform and thought how much easier it was now that I was older and bigger/taller. But then I tried to leap to the last platform and fell/got hit by a train. It seemed like I "respawned" in the same area, at pretty much the same time. We eventually succeeded in hopping around and getting on the train.

After the second station/country, before me and T got to Italy, a taxi came and most of the group left in it, leaving me and T behind because we couldn't fit. I motioned with the thumb-and-pinky finger gesture (the one that means "call me") that they should give me a phone number so we could stay in contact, but they didn't understand me and just left. Me and T ended up taking another train to Italy, because we didn't know where they were going.

The trains are occasionally filled with homeless and smelly people lying down on the seats covered with blueish blankets. In one of the trains in Italy - a sleek and gray thing, sort of similar to NYC's trains - there were several cars just filled with the homeless. We wandered around two of these cars before leaving (I apparently was expecting one of the homeless people to tell me if the seats across from him were dirty. Nearby was a guy dressed in a suit) and finding out that the train was part of the 'ghost network' (as labeled on a map nearby on the platform), which meant the trains were made of souls/ghosts coalescing into a semi solid material (how I knew that, I have no idea).

The alternative, which was for normal humans, was near the front of the platform, and looked like it was underneath a guillotine/chopper like object, which were horizontal supports on the ceiling. The train itself was not a train, but several metal platforms chained together into a line, with little to no handholds/barriers. We didn't want to get on, because it seemed highly suspicious and would probably end up killing the passengers, but we had to move for some reason. I led the way, jumping past the train and onto the beams near the top of the entrance, past which were stone stairs leading down to a wide space (a station-like area?). We jumped to the rafters or the stone/metal supports that made up the top of the hall - for a moment it felt like I was going to fall or crash into the supports painfully - jumping and running and jumping. I was continually casting powerups, etc. One point, T nearly slipped and fell, but I grabbed her by the leg and hauled her back up.

We took off our shoes and continued running along just in socks. On the wall there were screens showing facebook-like posts and comments, one of which involved doing badly on tests and LH. Next to my replies, it showed what I really typed then erased and sent. That part involved some text like "CLACK CLACK CLACK CLACK S H E", the clacks standing for backspace, with your original message without edits underneath. It also said "you're seeing this because you typed this."

Near this part, T and I backed up against a wall/slanted support so that T was bracing against the support and I was somehow pushing off of her. (I think my position looked like the one you use in swimming when you're pushing off the wall.) I had wings, so after I pushed off, I swooped around with my wings some more, until they timed out and I started dropping. I'm not sure what I did when that started happening, but I woke up afterwards.

So the dream started off normal and very ordinary. I was originally at what seemed to be a lecture hall of sorts filled with about fifty people or so. I was here with one of my convention friends, he and I simply sitting there chatting about non-important things.

Suddenly the situation begins to escalate quickly. Another girl that I vaguely knew suddenly came into the room and grabbed the hand of my friend, quickly muttering something about "needing to get out now." Not explaining anything to me, she and the other occupants of the room began exiting in a chaos almost, leaving me as the last to exit.

When I left the room the environment was absolutely different from what I expected. It suddenly appeared as a very old country town, with the majority of the homes being made of logs and old, antique wood. The first person I came across had a very demonic aura to her, and was not a face that I could fathom or recognize. Coming quickly up to me she tried grabbing at me with clawed fingers but I ran away screaming from her.

As it turns out, there was a group of these evil beings that seemed out to kill me. No matter how hard I kept hiding in different spots they kept showing up to claw at me and trying to murder me. Eventually I hid under a sort of gap between a porch and the ground, thinking I was safe. I hid here for an excruciatingly long time before another of those faces appeared before me. Realizing where I was the other creature/humanoids began circling the awning, keeping me trapped underneath. It seemed like what appeared to be a bulldozer of some sorts came up, crashing into the house and destroying the foundations. As the house started falling down upon me, I woke up from the dream.

Ms S, my English teacher, is the instructor. We are (re)learning how to use these giant spinning glass spheres. You go inside and you either use the controls (not sure if there were any) or you somehow use your body to move it. The spheres go around and rotate from one side of the tunnel to the other (like an upside-down U). The spheres spin as well.

In the beginning I had one arm hanging out of the sphere and I was going to fix that, which I did, because it was dangerous and I felt like my left arm could get cut off any moment. Somehow it slips out again and Ms S comes over to tell me that I can't have my arm like that. I say something along the lines of "yeah, I know, I was just going to fix it" and I do. T and possibly C are also there.

I explain stuff to newbies and some understand and Ms S says that I'm really good with kids because they understand me, and I'm like "well I have to understand the thing first, which is saying something..." T says that she used to be able to go faster (prob in the AP course or something, I used to take it too).

I have a dream that there are basically zombie ghost things trying to get into my house. Somewhat like Minecraft or Terraria, I keep building better houses to keep them out. My mom and brother are there. It's a nightmare, but it's goofy. Something busts through a window with its arm and is groping around, but it's a silly cartoony looking arm.

Then, I'm having an actual nightmare. The tone is just creepy and foreboding. Something about tunnels beneath the city, and scary things that might be in them... that kind of nightmare. There's a character who's investigating it. I don't recall his name. There's also a shrine that goes down into one such tunnel, but it's unattended and has fallen into decay.

I go semi-lucid. I realize I'm dreaming, but am not fully "there". I see the main character descending into a tunnel - I decide to follow him and use the darkness of the tunnel to do a scene change. I leap into the air and fly full speed into the tunnel after him.

Instead, as I descent into the tunnel, I hear a buzzing roar and ghostly voices. One voice in particular is very loud. It keeps saying "HELP ME, ALEX". It's so loud and sudden and insistent that it rattles my nerves and startles me into non-lucidity.

I'm buffeted around in the tunnel and the buzzing, ghostly voices continue. I continue flying though the tunnel. I regain lucidity again after a brief while, and hear the same voice yelling for help. I still have no idea who the hell Alex is, though.

When I realized I was not going to be able to regain control of the dream, I woke up, rolled over, and went back to sleep. I dreamed I was in my old city, riding the bus around to get to work, but I couldn't remember where I worked and I was getting very frustrated.

Had a (very short) lucid dream!

First dream:

I was in a bookstore/library with my cousin. He told me I had to get a book for him, and I told him I actually had a copy of it. I told him to follow me and we left the bookstore. When we left there, we were in a corridor full of classrooms. I got into one and showed him my copy. It was literally a photocopy of all the pages of the book. He got mad and told me he wanted the real book.

Then, a girl I know walked into our classroom and told me she missed me. I hugged her and started talking to her. My cousin got really pissed off and kept interrupting us at every other word. Finally, I had enough and asked her to wait while I'd get the book for him.

We left the classroom and walked back to the bookstore/library. He told I didn't have to pay for the book, I could use my PROCSOM (wtf is that? no idea) card. I agreed and went to the PROCSOM part of the place. I told the woman who worked there my name and she gave me some weird glasses. With the glasses, I could now have the book.

Since my cousin had the book, I left the bookstore/library and found myself an empty classroom. I tried to put the glasses on and it took me a while to understand how it worked, it was very weird. I got it right and started going back to the classroom my friend was. I opened the door and she was talking to two other people. I woke up.

Second dream:

I was in a subway station. There was a group with me and we were making sure we could live there, since outside was full of (surprise, surprise) zombies. We managed to find a tiny room with glass walls that we could stay. We could see everything on the subway station from inside, but people outside couldn't see us.

But it was too tiny and I decided to go looking for somewhere else. The people there followed me because... I dunno, because it was my dream, I guess. There was a little girl who was with us who started crying and she said she couldn't stay with us, she had to go and find her parents. We told her we didn't know if they were alive, but she just ran away.

I was sad, she must've been about nine and I doubted she'd survive outside. We still kept exploring the subway station until we found a hidden floor that had hospital rooms (?) and a huge room with tables. We shut everything and decided to stay there.

We put two people in each room to sleep, cause if someone died, they'd turn into a zombie (The Walking Dead logic). That way, the person sleeping with them would hopefully realise the person had died BEFORE they turned. As I was walking on the corridor of the hospital rooms, it clicked how stupid our plan was and I decided to check on the pregnant woman's room to see if everything was right.

It was not. She had had the baby, but the baby was choking and dying. Someone walked inside and cut the baby right above its chest. A bunch of white stuff came out of it, I think it was supposed to be normal, but I put my hands above MY chest and realised that that had never happened to me. Somehow, I knew the baby was as good as dead.

Too disturbed by the baby dying, I left the room and went to the huge room with tables. There was a woman there and I had a thing for her. I told her to meet me in one of the hospital rooms so that we could get together. She said she'd try, but her husband might get suspicious. Her husband then appeared and started shouting at her. He was very abusive.

While they were arguing, I walked over one of the tables and found lots of letters there. One of them was from the little girl's father and I got even sadder. Then I noticed there were about five letters to the woman I had a crush on, plus one "secret" note.

Hold on. This is a dream! Unfortunately, I started feeling my real body. I was ready to give up, but I thought about the competition. I rubbed my hands together and it helped a little, I couldn't feel my body anymore, but I knew it was a matter of time. The woman walked to where I was and told me it was okay to wake up. I told her that I'd at least get the letters all organised to her and find the secret note that had disappeared while I was rubbing my hands before I woke up. She looked so miserable that I wanted to give her something to hold on before I left.

I put the letters in chronological order (there were dates on them), but I couldn't find the note. I handed her the letters, apologised for the note and wished her good luck with her abusive husband... and I woke up.

Dream recall from today's WBTB/naps.

Dream 1(fragments):

I was browsing DA and viewing dragon images, then there was some discussion about flying and somebody posted that he "Accidentally nom'd instructions".

Dream 2(fragments):

Something is going on at home and then i go to bed, but while standing(?) on bed i realize that i am dreaming, and also notice that bed is in wrong place. I leap towards window nearby but dream instantly fades.

Dream 3(fragments):

I was watching some video which was showing some game ab out gangsters and noticed that really unfitting for video touhou music is playing for some reason: Voyage 1970.

Dream 1(fragments):

I was going around some streets and i've had some kind of power.

Dream 2(fragments):

There were three cybord dudes infiltrating some building and at one point one of them started remembering the past where they were kids, still with semi-mech bodies and were playing around with them, then they went to some train station.

Dream 3(fragments):

There was some ancient city, covered in gold and some researcher arrived to find something of importance. There was a bit party that kinda distracted him as he was trying to decipher symbols on walls and then he was talking to mayor. Then something gone wrong with symbols and massive army of enemies attacked the city and started destroying everything. There was also ASCII Dwarf fortress-like view of the battle, the researcher tried to stealth out of battle but got caught, he then used some kind of time travel to return to before city got attacked. He started with symbols again and found some fake ones.

In this dream my husband and I had two small dogs, but no kids - at least none present in the dream. We took the two dogs to the park and they ran and got very muddy. I was worried because we were about to go somewhere and leave the dogs at a friends so would need to clean the dogs. I looked for them but could not find them, so asked my husband, where are the dogs? He said I should get them from next to the McDonalds. I thought that was weird that he left them there. I went to get the dogs. Only once I got there did I discover that there was a pet grooming service there. The dogs looked much cleaner but much less happy than when they were muddy. I didn't know how to pick the dogs up though because I had not expected to have to pay, and had left my money at home.

Contractors we work with in waking life came from the west coast to help us solve some issue. Then there was an important meeting scheduled - it seemed like more than a meeting - and we expected a female contractor from same organization to show up, but she did not. So we called her. Turned out she was planning to come in a week instead. We were not sure whether this was due to her lack of confidence in her coworkers ability to resolve the issue on time, which was a prerequisite for her part of the job; or whether she was always scheduled to come in a week, but we got confused because of the emergency scheduling of her coworkers visit; or whether she got confused and booked her flight for the wrong week. Note: in waking life, she is out on maternity leave. In this dream there was another coworker of hers supposedly, who was visiting, and he was in the room with me when we called her. She heard his voice, so she asked him as part of the conversation whether they had resolved the issue, and he said yes. His last name got mentioned, and if I remember right it was the name of a street I passed two days ago when I was heading to or from a meeting that did indeed in waking life include some coworkers of this woman who had come in from west coast for this meeting. However, none of them were like this nonexistent guy with the last name of the street.

In my dream fragment, I recall I dreamed that the fact that my older son's teacher had said that he is doing well in math (true in waking life) was actually hiding the fact that he is in a remedial math class, so he is doing well in the group of students who have trouble with math (not true in waking life).

(I am unsure how the dream started, so I will start from where I do remember.)

I'm walking down a road with a woman under my left arm (which I felt like was my wife/gf in the dream). We were going to a restaurant but I forget which one. As we continued on, we passed an Olive Garden and I asked the woman if she would rather eat there instead of where we were initially headed. She answered rather indifferently so I decided to go inside. Immediately after entering the Olive Garden, I realized I was dreaming and decided this was the best place to do some experiments involving my 5 senses.

First, I started touching my surroundings, however my sense of touch was much less sensitive than it usually is.
Then I started testing my sense of hearing by simply listening to the hustle-and-bustle of the restaurant, which I could hear faintly.
Satisfied, I started testing my sense of taste. This was difficult at first as I had nothing to eat, so I approached one of the tables and saw a woman eating chips and salsa. I reached over and took some (the woman gave me a look of approval, as if it was okay for me to take some). I believe I could taste the chips/salsa, however it was too faint to make a definitive answer.
Unfortunately that was all the testing I could get in before my dream ended, but I do plan to continue my tests in future lucid dreams. Hopefully dreams that are more vivid as well .

First dream:

I was watching a film with my dad, we were at the cinema and there were aliens trying to figure out the names of people involved in something (in the film). Then, my dad looked at me, said "we can't let them have the names!", got up and ran out of the cinema. I suddenly realised that, yes, we had to stop them, so I ran after him.

Once I left the cinema, I was at what seemed like a bar/diner. Caroline Forbes from The Vampire Diaries was there and she was also trying to stop the aliens. I was as fast and as strong as a vampire, so when somebody attacked her, I attacked them. Before I could see who they were, the person had already disappeared. Caroline thanked me and told me we had to keep going.

We left the bar/diner and the streets were full of zombies. We quickly got inside this building, it was old and looked like a bar from those cowboy films. It was empty, except for a computer. There was an alien there and it said it'd destroy the Earth if we didn't help it get the names. Caroline looked at me and said that there were lots of names. As long as we stalled, we could kill them.

I agreed and told the alien that I could get the names, but it'd take about 24 hours. I sat down and started using the computer. The alien said that it was not stupid, it knew I wouldn't give it any names. I then said a name that was on the computer. I asked if that was one of the names it was looking for. The alien said that yes, it was. So I replied that I could get the others, but it was all lost on the computer and it'd take a day to recover everything. The alien agreed and left the building, saying it'd be back later.

Caroline said she'd get some help and left. I got out of the building too and ran into my cousin. He said we had to stop the zombies and the aliens. The zombies were still out in the streets. I said that we had to and we started running. I told him I had to go to the bathroom first and we found a bathroom building (it was a whole place with bathroom stalls). He stayed outside while I went there. For some reason, I started thinking about something else. My cousin shouted that there were more zombies there and he wouldn't be able to wait much longer.

I got into a stall and started peeing. Then I felt like something was wrong. In real life, I always do a reality check when I'm peeing, cause I'm afraid of wetting my bed (yep, I really am afraid of that). I realised then that I hadn't done my reality check! I looked at my hands and... nope, all good, five fingers in each hand.

I finished peeing and went outside to find my cousin and LOTS of zombies. I woke up.

Second dream:

I was told that there was an art thing going on downstairs, at the mall. Since I had nothing better to do, I went there and, on the walls of the stairs, there were lots of Lea Michele pictures. I got excited. What if she was there!?

I got there and I saw Dianna Agron and Kevin McHale looking at this weird rock. They were talking about it, wondering what it was. I walked over there and read that it was a rock of the feet (...whatever that mean...) and told Dianna Agron that and it was not important at all. I put my hand on her shoulder for two seconds, just to tell her that there were more important stuff there and to not lose hope, but when I was leaving, she held my hand.

She said she was tired of the art place. I asked her if she wanted "to go upstairs at the mall or...?" and she said "or.", so I started guiding her to an exit door. I asked if she wanted "to have something to eat or...?" and she said "or." again. After that, It was very obvious to me she wanted to have sex with me. Don't ask me how I didn't realise it was a dream. I guess I was too busy thinking of sex with Dianna Agron?

Anyway, I confirmed with her that we wouldn't be able to go to her hotel room, since there were probably paparazzi there, and then I thought I couldn't take her to my house either, since my parents would be there. I quickly realised we had to go to another hotel. We went to this place where they rented cars and the machine was all weird.

Finally, a guy who worked there decided to help. He started telling all the good things about renting a car and I quickly made him stop. "Look, man, you don't have to sell the product here. I NEED a car for one day, NOW." He said okay and started pushing the buttons on the machine. Dianna Agron said "oh, that's great, we can finally go!" and I woke up.

Third dream:

There were terrorists attacking us (I have no idea who "us" were, though, I was in a big group) and we had to find this room at a hotel where some people with actual power could help us. We were very discouraged, though, since we didn't think they'd hear us.

Then, Lea Michele showed up and we were all super happy. We knew they'd hear us if we had Lea with us! We all welcomed her and started walking at the stairs of the hotel. A woman was going downstairs and she saw us. She hugged Lea and she said it was good to have her on our side. We kept going until Lea stopped in front of a door. She knocked and a guy opened it.

He was happy to see her and he barely remembered to invite us, the non-Lea members of the group, inside. Still, we all got in and he was gushing over her. Then, he finally remembered us and said he could help us. He said he'd get us an apartment and even a way of going from one place to another. He then opened a door and showed us something like this:



But with more seats and pink. He told us to leave and we did.

We found our apartment and I had a girlfriend. We were going to have sex but then everybody else arrived. She started getting depressed with us staying locked inside because of the terrorists and, by the time I woke up, she was thinking about suicide.

Dream recall from today's WBTB/naps. Apparently i keep having dreams about competition, haha.

Dream 1(fragments):

There was something about a professor researching HH in some lab.

Dream 2(fragments):

I was updating competition and noticed dream in which dragonmaster got dragon wings, then suddenly there were various dragon images in every post in thread.

Dream 3(fragment):

I was in bed and random bee was distracting me.

Dream 4(fragments):

There was some discussion about the cost of something.

Dream 1(fragments):

There was some story about some random dude who went to some party and was apparently a mayor. Then he at night went out of home and apparently got to time travel between a few random places and then go into some buildings and speak to few people, trying to find solution to get out of travel loop.

Dream 2(fragments):

I was playing some warcraft 3 level and i was controlling three heroes, one warrior one mage and one ogre. I had to fight through a few places to level them up and eventually reached some nether place. There were some items and forest of giant mushrooms and had to fight some giant wolves. Then discovered some kind of explosive switch which exploded something in the distance.

Dream 3(fragments):

There was some story(With some switches to first person at times) about some people discovering some kind of AI thing, which then transformed into spherical bot and they had to fight it. Then they went outside and there were zombies and spherical thing was larger and was flying around.

Dream 4(fragments):

I was playing hearthstone and was lacking taunt cards.

I went into a public bathroom in an unknown location. (I may have been at Long Shots, the local pool hall I go to, not sure.) I entered the men's bathroom, because I identify as, and appear to be a male. I was surprised to discover that the restroom was passably clean. It was also not the same bathroom I had been apparently used to- it had possibly been remodeled. The stalls were a gunmetal gray.
I walked into one of the middle stalls, undid my fly and sat down on the toilet to take care of my business. A couple minutes later I suppose, somebody enters the stall to my right. I look down to see a pair of black, gray, and yellow Adidas running shoes, all ragged and worn. I get all excited, because I know who that is. That's my best friend Robert. He must have realized that he was next to me as well, for when I threw a wad of toilet paper into his stall from underneath, I promptly received one in return. I duck my head under the partition between us, and am amused to find him doing the same, both of us leaning off the toilet to talk to each other."Eww, it's that guy," I say, grinning at him with one hand shielding my junk from his view, just in case he was trying to get a peek- yet, I was looking for his. "Thought those troll feet were yours," he says, and we both retract our heads back into our respective stalls to finish up our business. A little while later, while we are both still sitting on the toilet, I hear him say "We've gotta do this more often."
Then later, I'm in a public bathroom again, and my dad is in the neighboring stall. While sitting there, I proceed to tell him all about the meeting with Robert earlier in the bathroom.
