Uh....Oh. I had a dream about a lot of things... it was kind of weird...in a short period of time... I thought about...I had a dream about Channing Tatum cause I saw Magic Mike last weekend and then yesterday I watched Dear John because I just wanted to see Channing Tatum. So that was the last thing. I had a dream that I met him. And it was like a scene from Dear John he was surfing on a beach and it was raining and it was really sad but it was really awesome cause he was Channing Tatum so that was awesome. Then I had a dream, it was weird, I had a dream about president Obama, Uh...I had a dream that I met him in Indonesia, it was really cool. And then I...like became friends with his daughters and talked about life. They invited me to come over. They were like..."Oh can't you please come over" but it was like the white house. So that was awkward, but that was cool, that was a good dream. That was a good dream. And then... Umm oh what was my dream before? Uh...um....I was getting a little bit frustrated over something. But I don't remember. Um...I don't know I just remember feeling kind of frustrated, um.. don't remember the detail but um....kind of not in a good place with one of my best friends I know who's gonna come to dinner tomorrow at that ramen place. And then I just kind of started to think about that. We just haven't had very good communication and um.... she kind of expects me to make her a priority when that she doesn't make me her priority, so I think like she was one of the last people I was texting so I figured that's probably why I started thinking about it. Because I remember like shortly before you woke me up that I was feeling a little frustrated, like annoyed and disappointed kind of feeling, it was not a good feeling. But that's all I remember. That's it.
Source & context
A deidentified English report collected after a sleep awakening in the Zhang and Wamsley study. Some reports describe brief dreamlike imagery rather than a complete story; waking-only rows and no-experience reports are excluded. The complete source transcript is preserved except for explicitly documented bracketed privacy substitutions. This is a report, not a new community submission, a distinct-person count or a claim that every report is an independent dream episode. Celebrity/public-office names refer to public figures within the dream, not claims of actual meetings. Waking friendship commentary remains part of the transcript.
