Once i had a dream there was going to be a volcanic erruption and sesame
street was on the fault line. In my dream, there was nothing anyone could
do to evacuate. Big Bird and I were the only ones who knew we were all
doomed. I asked Big Bird if we should warn the others, but he said "NO. We
should let them die without fear." I was a kid when I had that one.

I was on Market Street, waiting for a bus. A trolley car came up and I hopped on the back. As I looked behind at the street, I saw Xin disguise, trying for the bus too. But he saw me on it and didn't catch it and instead wove through the crowd until he disappeared among them. The bus went on and I got off at some point, but I realized I was lost. It was industrial and I didn't recognize the street signs. I pulled out a map to find where I was and he walked up behind me. He slipped to the side and sat down a bit away from me, legs crossed reflecting in a pool of toxic waste. It was almost pretty but it was slimy green and there was trash just under the shallow surface.
I was hypnotized for a moment as I watched the wind catch his golden hair in the sun across his face and searched for a sparkle from his blue eyes underneath. But then I stopped and looked away. He came closer and sat beside where I was standing. We both knew he was not supposed to be near me, he seemed to ask of himself "Why then did I go away?" He beamed his child-like spritish smile and asked me to sit in his lap. I said no. He seemed to say he had seen the errors of his ways and had changed. I could not sit with him. He turned dark. I walked away.
I was trusted with the care of two girl babies, one needed to be changed, and I found that she had gotten her period.
i was in my grandmother's house, my entire extended family was there, my grandmother was alive still, but her house had been terribly neglected since she had been presumed dead for several years. i was helping to get things together, repair damage,etc. i also had several friends staying there and i had to integrate them into the family. i found many interesting things stored around the house, secret caches of old hankies and related items. it was like when we were sitting shivah for my grandmother and explored her house, but with even more treasures, and with her there to show the found objects to.
