"I got home and a female friend was there. I expected her but no one else. I was talking with her and then another guy I know came out. I said we you later to ask him to leave so he did. Then another group of people came in ready to party. I told them all they have to leave. Then a group of drunk guys came up to the window and said they were there to party. I said the party is closed go away. One of them pulled on the window and broke it so I went out to fix it. I got in a bit of a fight with the guy who broke it and threw him down the stairs since he wouldn't leave or fix the window. When I got back to the house a bunch of people were there partying. I told them all they had to leave but the three hot girls mixed into the crowd could stay. My friend who was originally there approved. They all left but one of the girls came back. We were so hanging out and I put glow tape on us. Then we went for a drive in my original friend's van since there was a big party around town it seemed. We ended up driving through open large bay doors into a building and there was an auction going on and we were in the center of it. So we kept driving through and off the stage there was a crazy drop-off and I was like you can't go this way and she was like watch this and drove off. Turning at the same time and landed perfectly in the parking spot on the bottom. We got it and walked to a party going on outside there and there was a bunch of people smoking weed with a crazy vape. I couldn't figure out how to use it but it was heating up. When it was ready it forcefully shot weed smoke out into my lungs. The next person used it and it shot a stream of smoke across the room into another person's mouth in a tight stream. It was impressive. "

"I had this dream that I went to see this house that Dave had designed for me and built for me. It was a new home. It had a huge open area in the middle of it, a lot of rock walls, and then other rooms. It was very big and vast. I never actually saw Dave, my husband, who had passed away, but he had designed this house for me. I take that back. He was in the dream, just not prominent. I walked around the house a lot, and at one point my leg had surgery on it and I could hardly put weight on it, so I was kind of laying around in the house. People came and visited."
