I had just arrived home from somewhere (likely Rochester), and my mom was being incredibly annoying. She would tell me to do something, I would start doing it, then she would come over and start talking to me or asking me to do something else. I would react angrily, for which she would give me something else to do as punishment(“you should pray for more patience with me. You’re being a jerk”). I would start praying, then she’d come over and start talking to me again, and similar cycles would continue.

    I was skiing with my family somewhere.  Mom and I were together, I think because we wanted to do easier runs (blue and green). I seemed to be pretty bad at skiing. At the point where one of the blue runs intersected with the main drag (which we went down several times as a whole family before dad and Grant split off), there were three little jump things, which were labeled as double black diamond. They were apparently “extreme moguls”. Later we were going to a food court area. To get in you had to walk through this thing that was a combination of a carousel and a revolving door. It blocked the entrance like a revolving door, but it had no partitions, had fancy benches and poles to hold onto, and occasionally it would change its direction of rotation. When I first got on I could hardly keep my balance, but then there was a helpful announcement reminding me of physics, and that it would be more stable on the inside instead of the outside. Once inside the food court area, I set down my stuff (which happens to have been my laptop, my bible and my notebook) on a table. When I come back after getting food, Cait and someone else are sitting at the table. I take my laptop and stick it in my backpack and they don’t seem to notice, but as I reach for my bible, they question whether it’s really mine (someone else comes up to the table at this point, a potential alternative owner to the bible). I look back at the table, and there’s another bible sitting on it that looks almost identical to mine. I look at both, but its impossible to tell the difference between the two from the sermon notes, because it looks like my cursive handwriting (which is strange because I never write on the sermon notes, much less in cursive). Same thing happens for my notebook, but eventually I notice that one is strangely bound and doesn’t have as many pages. Looking at it more closely, I figure out that it’s a photocopy. I am then able to do the same thing with the bibles (the sermon notes are photocopied…no telling how they got the rest of the bible duplicated!). Apparently Cait and her friend thought it would be a good prank because they were drunk.

    After skiing we (my family) were driving and dad kept on looking for different landmarks in the nearby mountains, including the ski resort. This was slightly scary, since he was the driver, and we wanted to look for the things in the mountains as well, so we didn’t really want to look at the road for him.

    Later we are staying in a tent with a couple of random people with superpowers. We’re doing some sort of time travel, but one day we do it at the wrong time, which apparently screws things up. They say something about us “losing the first hour” and a baby is sitting outside of tent. It starts playing with animated toys, and the female person who is with us keeps on telling someone to “wake up” and I can’t tell if she’s talking to the baby or the small person that its playing with, or something entirely different. After a bit, it is apparently too late and we are transported somewhere else to fight some sort of boss person for doing time travel wrong. The female is very happy because we have 6 people instead of the normal two (she’s screwed up before) and because we’ll get multiplied and more powerful before we face the boss (it’s some sort of effort to make the battle more fair or something) then we’ll actually have a very good chance of beating him. The boss is a 2-D black and white shaman/priest looking dude, in the style of the people in Secret of Kells. We very quickly set up what he wants – we get stars to bow down to him and the moon to sing hallelujah for him. He seems awestruck, and then I wake up.

    Additional Comments:

    I had't noticed the vague Joseph-like reference in the end (stars and the moon bowing down) until now (3/23/12). Don't know if that was a recent memory, old memory, or just a coincidence at the time.

    I was in a movie, playing the part of some sort of heiress alongside Joel Prukahn.  There was this guy who was basically in charge of the racket – he was some sort of mafia boss or something and I was part of his deal (there was me and this other girl – I think the other girl was actually his daughter). Me, this other girl, and Joel all had access to this gym bag in a locker room. Somehow I think Joel was supposed to be part of the racket too, but the mob boss didn’t trust him. Anyway, while it was Joel’s turn to check out his stuff in the gym bag I was supposed to sort of spy on him. I pretty much just danced in circles around the locker bay, passing him quite often enough to see what he was putting in it – just a bunch of winter clothes. He caught me on one of my times around (duh, it was kind of obvious), and accused me of watching him with the bag. I think I actually hadn’t thought it was a big deal or something. Anyway, we pretty much didn’t think it mattered, especially since it was just winter clothes (and I had access to the bag anyway, so why would it matter???), and we went over to the other side of the locker bay to chat for a second. Then the mob boss came out and he was all angry. He accused me of consorting with Joel, who apparently must not be on our side (anymore). He pulled out a gun, as did Joel. Some person supposedly on Joel's side was told to go to some sort of jail or be a prisoner or something, and she left, perhaps with some of the guards. Joel was told to leave as well, but he sat there for a while. During this time, the mob boss wasn’t really paying attention to be so I used to dart gun to shoot him. He was temporarily disabled and I ran free. I feel like Joel ended up in the jail thing one way or another.

    I knew at this point that the jail thing would be considered to be too friendly of a punishment for me (they weren’t necessarily going to shoot me dead, but if I was held captive it wouldn’t be as nice as whatever Joel was going to). I ran around this big blue locker room for the rest of the dream. It was clearly a men’s locker room, and there were guys everywhere, but they were all wearing clothes. As I was running through the shower area, there was a platoon of soldiers doing drills with a sergeant in there. All the guys were soldiers, all of whom were on the side of the mob boss to some extent. And…that’s pretty much it.

    Additional Comments:

    I found it interesting that this was supposed to be a movie, but by the end I was running for my life like I was in real danger. Strange.

    I’d forgotten about it, but I’m pretty certain that this isn’t the first dream in which Joel is actually a relatively prominent actor – never a lead, but has been in a decent number of movies as a supporting actor. Weird. His personality is pretty far from "movie actor" in real life.
