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.

    It started out in a Lion King setting, and 3 of my lion friends went over to the Elephant Graveyard. They ran across the nice green grass then came back over the pretty little pond, commenting that something was weird about that place. Then mom lion appeared and we went across the street to watch a gymnastics show. Around this time we became human again, and I think my friends disappeared. The show was in front of a big building, and the gymnasts were attached by some almost invisible ropes to something way up there (presumably the top of the building, though that doesn't make sense considering that they were IN FRONT of the building). There were posters that changed on the front of the building. Several acts went by, both single and double acrobats ( I remember them being called gymnasts, but they were really more like acrobats, doing flips and such with help from the ropes). At some point I was no longer an audience member but was talking with the acrobats as the show went on (I don't remember when this happened, just like when I changed into a lion). A gymnast named Slussio was going and the gymnast next to me commented on how Slussio won many awards and was considered the best, but that she personally didn't think she was that great. Then Lucas Connelly was getting ready to go after Slussio, and he announcer said, “The Slussio performance will be cut short so we have time for the following performances”. All of the sudden, I realized that I was supposed to do doubles with Lucas. He went up and then I went up and grabbed his hands and we went flying to one side. I had no idea what I was supposed to be doing so I made it up as I went along. He made some movement, so I flipped him over. I knew immediately that this wasn't the right thing to do – guys are supposed to flip girls, not the other way around. He made the movement again, and I flipped him again since I didn't know what to do. The third time I did some weird spinning thing. Then we were flying over to the other side and he hesitated by a poster with a yellow spinning triangle on it, but I didn't do anything. Somehow he managed to tell me to do something involving spinning, so when we got to the next poster, he pushed me into a cartwheel/handspring type thing. I was elated because I'd never been able to do that. That's about all I can remember of our routine. Next I was standing on a podium, but I felt like I was watching myself from 3rd person, like on TV or something. I was thinking “No way, I couldn't have got a medal, I've never done gymnastics in my life,” but there I was standing on the platform for the bronze with Slussio and the other girl, or so I thought. Then I was presented with the silver medal. Then Slussio was given the gold. Then the girl who had been insulting Slussio when I was talking to her earlier was given the bronze and she was in tears. After that there was something about me being at my grandparents house (Gull Point), except they had this cornfield instead of a front yard and I wanted to try some gymnastics in it to see if I could still do it. But grandpa started the tractor and it confused me and I don't remember anything else.
