Dream Fragments 1

First Fragment: My sister M. was telling J. (her friend), R. (our sister) and me about a band that she discovered from our sister, D., when D. was in college. D. had seen them one night and drunkenly told M. about them. M. was skeptical, but when she heard their album, she fell in love. She played an old cassette on the stereo she had as teenager: an "all-in-one" contraption that had a turntable, cassette player, 8-track player and radio. The band sounded sort of like the Flaming Lips.

Second Fragment: I was in a romantic comedy that was about a love triangle. One of the men in the movie was Gary Numan, of all people.

Dream 5

In the dream, I was getting married. Or rather, I was preparing to get married. I had no idea who the groom was, as he was not in the dream. I was shopping for wedding clothes and instead of a traditional white dress, I picked out a pale blue satin dress with spaghetti straps. In this dream, I was thin, probably my ideal weight and I was surprised at how pretty I looked and felt. In the dream, I was shopping in an underground, almost cavernous shopping mall that was labyrinthine and filled with hundreds of shops. I visited a shop where my sister C.worked (only in the dream, not in real life) and she helped me pick out accessories, like chunky jewelry, to wear with my dress.
