FryingMan

I recalled several dream/fragments but only one survived a cursory review, the final one:

+ I'm in the seating area of a concert hall. I "remember" that normally I'm not on the ground floor here but now I am. I'm walking a row of seats and there is someone seated there reading a book(?). I turn and look towards the stage, I choose this spot so that I could see the performers, it is going to be some sort of chamber concerto (several instruments). The view is not straight-on but someone to the side. There is a glass wall [DREAM SIGN] placed in front of the soloist' podium on the stage.

+(f) There is a team of people working in a large corner of an (abandoned lot? Public park?). There is a large pile of sand/earth there. They are hiding themselves and their equipment under sand-colored tarps?

+ Miniature golf: it is a timed game I'm playing simultaneously against some guy. The final move is to take a can of (refried beans?) and to slam it down across the finish line. I'm rushing like crazy but manage to finish first.

+ I'm looking out over a lake scene, lake Tahoe. It is pretty choppy and there are large waves, like in the afternoon. I'm telling someone how my favorite time there is in the morning when the lake is completely calm. I see that the wave has washed over the side of my canoe at the water's edge and a container full of potatoes is starting to float away. There is another container of something also floating away and I need to choose which one to save first. At the water's edge I see things moving in the water. I look down and see some small crayfish. There is a huge boulder here where they are hiding. I look more and see more and more crayfish [DREAM SIGN]. I mention that there are some really large ones here, the size of lobsters. As I turn away I catch a glimpse of something on top of the boulder and someone exclaims "It's a grizzly bear!" I look back and see the bear tussing with my wife. I'm trying to extricate her from the bear's clutches (the bear is about the size of a medium-sized dog), and I notice the bear is doing some really strange gestures like compulsively wiping its eye.

+(f) room, group, some spilled water on the floor

+(f) tall statue, see it up close, construction, I think there must be metal internal frame to hold all that concrete. I'm floating around it and observing it, my dad(?) is there? My kids as they were small are running around. I see a photo of them. It needs to be printed out

+ I'm approaching an escalator with a bunch of people. Large crowd. Some sort of official presentation. There is a large chalkboard. I'm trying to move through the crowds of people, there is an official at the top of the escalator (down escalator) registering people(?). Cameras, things on my (his?) belt getting in the way. Someone is finishing a presentation, then people need to put their names on the board to form a line for making individual presentations. Everyone crowds the board. [For purposes of DJ, assume my name is Joe Dreamer]. There are a lot of people writing my name (Joe) on the board. There is not a lot of room left to put my name when I get up so I put it a little bit to the left. I say "there are too many Joe's here!" Then I see someone else write "Joe" on the board. So I decide to add my last initial, "D" after "Joe". Then another guy comes up and writes "Joe D" on the board, and I say "there are too many Joe D's here!"

+ I enter a house -- standard suburban ranch-style. The owner/occupant is a man lying on a couch in the living room. We exchange some words, he has some advice for me? In his house is a large collection of red-felt covered billiard/pool tables. They are mostly odd sized, far smaller than regulation. Some are stacked on on top of the others. I'm looking for a more or less regulation sized tabled, but don't see one. We're sitting at a counter and talking and I notice through the glass walls/windows [DREAM SIGN] that the next door neighbor's yard is completely flooded. It's a medium-sized rectangular yard and there is about a foot or more of standing water there. I point this out to the billiard table guy.

+ driving around looking for an open taco place, but it's only 9am, I'll probably have to wait until at lest noon before one opens. I'm looking in through the front from the parking lot but I don't see any lights on.

+ at F&D G's house, there's a kid playing video games on the couch. I go and sit with them and look at the controller he's using.

+ birthday party envelope over the wire this was the second time more involve than the first: S2?

+ warehouse tons of stuff left going out of business? bowling the bottles broken glass everywhere alcohol walking the lower flow, pick up and stare at a 3-4 inch crystal ball, browsing the mugs

+ singing the coke song older people are doing it (kiosk where guy hides?)

+ bidding against FG [WalFiPal] for a large potato omlet he bids $190 I say forget it, I see DD, CL, NI faces.

+ guy chasing another guy because he messed up his phone? car gets in way, chase on sidewalk, shooting shotguns. hide in a kiosk Big fat dude with a butthole drawing on the outside of his pants a girl mimics shoving her arm up there on the outside of his pants and he reaches down and gives her a gift, it's a play-act like she's pulling it out of his butt. He raises his shirt as I walk by and see his stomach is covered in tattoos, line art style

+ picking up kids from house, guy likes to lay his clothing out on the bed ahead of time, there is a check involved in leaving his place of business, but I don't have compensation for my tools [waking memory], he says pick up the kids at 2am and I'm incredulous, that will never work, I'll just take all the kids home now.

I find myself sitting in the front passenger seat of a car looking out the left side windows. We're on a high road/bridge high above a large body of water to the left. I'm looking at it amazed at its beauty and clarity, the sun reflecting off the ripples in the water. I quickly conclude I'm dreaming because I do not recall continuity of location or how I got here. (I think I do a quick nose pinch to confirm but I'm already sure). I continue looking at the water, amazed at the detail, the vivid high definition of it all. There are some dark shapes in the water but I don't consider it further.
Looking ahead, I realize that son S1 is driving the car and son S2 is in the back seat. I ask them "so what do you want to do? Have a Star Wars adventure? Go after some girls?" I see girls around the car and decide not to get distracted by that. I tell son S2 "hand me a piece of pizza" and reach back my hand over my shoulder and expect to feel the piece, I feel it and bring it around and take a bite (not much recollection of taste). Then I say "hand me a beer" and I reach back and feel a cold can pressed into my hand. I bring it in front of my eyes and look, it is a tall can with dark brown-orange coloring and a few large words in black. I pop the top and take a drink. At this point I'm sitting in a room with son S1 across from me and son S2 in a room behind me to my left (position like he was in in the car). S2 says "S1 is jealous of the beer!" I want to hand S2 a beer too, so I reach down around my feet and expect to feel a cold can, and after a second I do, and bring it up and hand it to S2. I tell S1 that successfully summoning items is all about expectation. Suddenly, my wife comes home and I
lose lucidity. She immediately comments frustration on the mess all around the place after having left us alone for so long and I and the boys spring into action to tidy up. I see she is in the kitchen [unknown location/house] and has bought a bunch of food and fancy cakes which are sitting in cardboard containers on the counter.

+ I'm walking down a hallway and up ahead through some glass doors [DREAMSIGN] I see EB. We are meeting at a big concert, and I realize she got here quite early. She is nearly at the very front of a very very long line, I'm impressed she managed such a good spot. I see her car parked in the lot right behind her, I'm also amazed she managed such a good spot. I move to join her in the line and people start crowding around us taking our spots and pushing us back farther in the line.
