Alley Oop in Dreamland

In my dream, I was at a conference with 500 people. The person in charge adjourned the group at 11, telling them to have lunch and when they came back, Jan Wilberg would lead them in a group discussion. He added that Jan had been working on the discussion questions for months. I was astonished. I had no questions. So, I left in my truck to drive around and think up questions. Then I took many wrong turns and ended up in alleys with a lot of cardboard boxes. When I got back, lunch was over and the only thing available to eat was pizza which I bought and then folded up and put in my briefcase.

When I told my husband about this dream after I’d brought us both coffee, I asked him if it was an anxiety dream. He said, “Probably.”

Then I told him that one of the cardboard boxes was flat and I’d used it to cover up a car battery that I’d found in an alley and loaded into the truck. Then, he opened the Sports page of the Sunday paper and started reading about a giant sturgeon caught in Lake Winnebago.

That was pretty much the end of the analysis.

  1. Probably smart that you didn’t attempt to go any deeper into any of that… also maybe avoid alleys for awhile.
