I went to NYC fo the weekend. I can't remember why I had to go. Perhaps to meet someone (eg a crush) I thought was going to be in the city at the same time. I booked a room at a Bed and Breakfast, but planned to stay with a friend that night. I though the room was only mine for the day and I couldn't sleep there. Later, I realize it's fine but I've go to get to work the next morning anyway so i take the bus back. it's a doubledecker bus with the top open like a tourists bus and the crowd is really ghetto. the bus is driving on a highway that has hardly any cars but is at least a dozen lanes wide.

At somepoint I get off the bus at arrive at the Cosmo magazine Arcade. It's a bunch of old-timy games like pinball with female-targeted themes. A popular one is the Britney Shooting Game. apparently britney spears took a gun to her dashboard and shot at the check engine light. For this game you sit in a car seat. Instead of a pistol you get a stick with a marble in it and if you press the button it will hit the dashboard. The sign says 70% of all women hit the target. I try it once and hit the mark. The second time, it hits the rim and bounces back. The marble just brushes my eye, likely damaging it

    It's Boston, because I feel like I'm in a city that's home, but it looks completely unfamiliar. I'm on a section of town on top of a tall hill, and steps everywhere can lead you back to the main city. It's like Montmartre, but airier, like Italy. The weather is clear. It's all pedestrians and very populated. I walk under an underpass, a white stucco elegant building, that leads me into an outdoor section that's near pitch dark. I walk through another white stucco underpass into a large city square that is entirely illuminated by the chandeliers and candles inside an enormous restaurant made of glass. It's fancy in there, romantic. I look in and immediately see that guy I am not so sure about. Do I like him? Do I just want him to like me? He's there on a date with precisely the sort of woman I despise: a bleached blond Ann Taylor-wearing administrative assistant type. I am hurt and I walk through another underpass. Outside it it is bright and clear, a sunny afternoon. It's just the restaurant had special effects that made it look night during the day. This part of the city, is compact and crowded with people. There is an L-shaped canal that is right near me with a sort of mossy section around it where people dock. On the other side of the L is where you get tickets, and dozens of people are riding their boats on the outer edge of the city. I think I should rent one to get my mind off him. But as I head toward the rental station, my feet get caught in the moss by the dock. I tried to get back up, but instead I fall into the water

    Lots of crowds in the dream, and in a tiny space. It felt like a cross between Montmartre, Venice, Madrid, and Fairytale kingdom theme parks I went to as a kid. Very much a post-valentine dream.
