The first dream I remember only vaguely. Wherever it took place was very run-down and slummish, almost post-apocalyptically so. My dad may have been in it, though I am not sure. I remember a run-down house with a sun room filled up with junk. It transitioned into the second dream relatively seamlessly, as I was looking for a person from the first dream during the second one. I suspected that, as he was homeless, he had been sent to jail again, as that was apparently common. Nobody knew where he'd gone, though. My boyfriend was in this dream. I bought a Russian car with somebody's name carved into the cloth in the back seat, and I asked him if it was a good deal before I bought it. I drove to a convenience store in which the clerk had gone nuts and trashed the place and tried blaming it on a black customer. It was a disturbing scene, and I left without buying anything. I smoked, which was wonderful because I miss smoking, and it was nice to have a cigarette. I remember that it was a city where I've been in my dreams before, about equivalent to a really ghetto-fied Houston with a lot fewer people in it. Then my boyfriend challenged me to a race on the open highway in his Mustang, which I lost but not by as much as I'd have expected from my early '90s Soviet car.

The third dream was entirely separate from the other two. I was in a Target shopping for pants. I found several pairs of pants I liked, but I sat them down to look at scarves and the replenishment guy, who turned out to be my ex-coworker Dustin, picked them up and put them back in their correct places, which was bad because I had no idea which brand they were as I'd found them in the wrong place to begin with. Dustin helped me look for them, but we didn't find them. He seemed to feel bad about it, so I hugged him and told him it was cool and I appreciated that he'd tried to help me and that it was good seeing him outside of Pizza Hut. Also, the clothes had really weird brand names, like Jurassic Park and Coconut Rum and Crackrock Bay.

Then I woke up and dozed a few times and tried to get back into the shopping dream, but to no avail.
