I dreamed that me and Karen were making fun of each others' girlfriend/boyfriend.

Then I said, "I used to date someone who was a supermodel; now she weighs over 195 lbs."

Then someone asked, "Did she gain weight after high-school?"

I said, "No, she gained weight in her 40's."

Then, I woke up laughing.

Family feud ends

I dreamed of a family feud where one family wronged the other family publicly. then one came to the other's party to apologise. They were giving speeches. The most moving speech was one where one who had been an actor said he'd never memorized the script..and, "People say it had all been scripted. This is not scripted," and the younger more forgiving people were moved to tears as he asked their forgiveness. another, it may have been me, said, "My mom used to say not to fight with your brothers and sisters; they'll be your best friends, someday. They know each others' weakness. We're better friends because we know what to avoid..."

new game?

I played this game with my mom in my dream. The game is basically like chess with nothing but rooks, and you try to capture other pieces. The only other differences are that there's lots of barriers/walls up so you can't just move right across the board except for in a few places. You also have a home that you try to get them to where you take the piece off the board if you get it to that spot and get a few points (2, I think). Also, you start in different varying positions where you're already intertwined with their pieces from the start to get the ball rolling. The game is set up for 2 to 4 players, and it only goes for a limited time-certain amount of turns so you don't end up going all the way till the pieces are gone. You get 1 point for each other player's piece you kill. I played with my mom and for some reason she really stressed me out trying to beat her which is ridiculous because we were only playing a game. Maybe that reflects my own life and my stress level right now..

Ivor

dream - Guy looking for lab job in a cardiovascular lab on the East coast that he can join for his PhD. Said he wants to harvest tissue from marine animals so can't be too far in. He also said he worked in Ivor Benjamin's lab during his undergraduate years, and so I caught onto that and teased him by saying:
me: Which school did you say you went to?
him: Oh, I went to the University of Utah
me: That's kind of far for you to come. I didn't think University of Utah graduates made it in college (refering to college as graduate school)
