Last Night's Dream

Last night's dream was very vivid. I’ve been thinking about it all day (finally wrote it down at 3:19 p.m.) trying to understand what it was about.



Setting:
It took place at my graduation from somewhere.

I had a fancy ball (prom) dress on underneath the graduation gown.  The front bow stuck out and annoyed me.
I had stood in line to purchase 2 sets of four tickets to have enough for the ceremony.

The dream:
I was very upset because I found out no one was coming.
I asked BC (specific person from church) about who I should pass the tickets onto.
She didn’t seem to care until she saw I had numbers 9-12…which were great seats on the floor. She grabbed the four good tickets.

While I was waiting in the room with all other grads, my grand ma, pa and uncle Tom show up to tell me that they need the tickets. I tell them that Mom said no one was coming. Mom was already sitting in the other area with people. I thought it odd that she sent the old people to come tell me that while she was sitting.

I went out onto the floor to try and get the tickets back. I told the lady who was doing the raffle what happened. That all we needed to do was find BC to verify so I could get the tickets for my relatives. She didn’t help. She said I had to talk to the guy in charge. I told him but he gave me the run around too.

I then went looking for mom. Found her in the section she was in and it was half empty. I didn’t understand why she sent my grandparents for me. It was mom, Aunt Sara and someone else (can’t recall – think it was Uncle Henry) My older relatives hadn’t followed me. I was asked if I was sure I had talked to the person in charge. I was annoyed at mom for asking if I had found the right person after she was the one who caused the problem by saying no one was coming. I would have held onto the tickets. Then a busload of people showed up and filled in the section Mom was in (upper balcony far from stage).

Don’t remember much else.

Impressions/After thoughts:
Everyone but U. Tom (he is Aunt Sara’s widower & my oldest living relative) has passed away.
Dad and Nana (mom’s mom) weren’t in the dream
I was very sad that no one was coming to see me…especially after all the effort I went to getting tickets.
I was very annoyed that mom’s not telling me the truth caused the issue and me having to run around to fix things.
Never thought about the fact that I had taken all tickets and mom had them (dream magic)
Also annoyed she sent “the old people” out to find me to get the problem fixed.

Interpretation:
I think, in part, I carry some anger with Mom for messing things up with all the siblings and the fighting. But odd they weren’t in the dream. Maybe sending old people to do physical task is being annoyed for picking Lynda to take care of stuff she isn’t capable of. I’m not sure why everyone in the dream were my dead relatives (U.Tom who I haven’t seen since A.Sara passed away).

Just a very odd dream all around. Wonder if it is indicative of the fact that I am very bored and annoyed with my life right now.
