I didn't sleep much last night, but when I did...

[unknownfate]

I dreamed I was asleep in a bed between two fictional characters I tend to be fangirly about. There was nothing sexual about it. We were asleep. Then the one on the edge of the bed towards the room raised up on an elbow and shook me awake to point to the closet where there was a ghost materializing. He had been telling me about it earlier in a scene not shown, and knew I wanted to see it.

So I woke up enough to watch and the ghost took the form of my Grandma. She just stood there in my closet, shimmering and smiling, and I remember thinking 'I didn't even know she had died!', but she looked so sweet and happy, I wasn't upset.

I went back to sleep, and there was a dream-jump where my Mom called to tell me, and I told her I already knew and she asked how, and I said that I had just seen her ghost in the closet. … Or maybe I dreamed that conversation while sleeping in the original dream … I better check to see if the top is still spinning or something.

Anyway, I've been cruising the online dream dictionary to find out what it means, and wishing I knew where my actual dream dictionary was. My bet is on it being in the craft's hut back home, probably in a tupperware container. It won't be long before I can find out.

I just had one yesterday where I was flirting with Christopher Lloyd. :D

No shame in that. He's a cutie.

My dream dictionary says that dreams of being asleep often signify a feeling of vulnerability. Ghosts represent something that is gone but not forgotten, and ghosts of dead relatives may signify unresolved issues.

(Idk how useful this is to you; dream dictionaries are fun but I usually just end up with a handful of symbols and fitting them together is a chore. And there are obvs more symbols in your dream but I won't type out entire entries at you.)

Nosey question you don't have to answer: Where is home you're going back to? Are you leaving Alaska?

I distinctly remember replying to this before, but there is no message now, so I do it again.

I kinda have to leave AK. My contract isn't renewed and I have district housing so that puts me out of job and house by the end of the month. The cost of living is so high up here that it would eat through my savings in no time if I tried to stay, and I already had a ticket to WV to visit the folks this summer, so that's where I'm heading.
