My Man, My Hero

I was on a road trip with an unknown female companion. Everything was going pretty good until we stopped at a convenience store. My friend needed to buy gas and I really needed to use the restroom. 

The store was pretty crowded. While on my way to the restroom, some big man was trying to talk to/flirt with me. I barely acknowledged him as I made my way to the restroom. It was pretty big, but had no doors or barriers for stalls. I was the only person in there and since I had to use it so badly, I did my business as quick as I could before anybody else came in. As soon as I finished, I heard the voice of the big man outside the restroom. He made his way inside the women's restroom talkin ish

"What the f*** are you doing in here?!" I asked, looking to see if anybody was going to come in and make him leave. 

"Ain't nobody out there. They can't hear you. It's just me and you, baby," he said, chuckling as he walked towards me. 

"You'd better not touch me!"

"What you go'n do, huh?"

Then for some reason, I decided to yell for LaMar (who wasn't even supposed to be in this dream because I'm miles away from him on this road trip) because I knew he of all people would've been able to protect and defend me.

I yelled as loud as I could, "LaMar!! LAMAR!!!!!"

Lo and behold, LaMar appeared at the entrance of the restroom ready to kick this man's ass!

"What's up, p***y?!" he asked the big man, sizing him up. 

Unfortunately, I woke up before the fight happened 😞


Back on the Block


My family and I were back at the house on Darby. I guess we were living there again. The house was in hoarder condition. One night, I woke up and saw this little boy climb in the house from the master bedroom window. 

"Young man, what do you think you're doing?" I asked. He was so startled, he couldn't respond. 

"I'm gonna do you a favor this time and not call the police. We work too hard to get what we have only to have somebody come and take it from us. So go tell your friends what I said. And if I catch you or any of them trying to break in here again, I'll make it so that it'll be the last time you try to rob somebody again. Understand?"

He nodded his head, then I helped him climb back down from the window. 

The next morning I told the family what happened overnight. Nobody was really trippin' over it. Tiffany was excited about going to a Marvin Gaye concert and was holding an old CD of his. (I guess he was alive in this dream!) Not sure where everybody else was doing. Kim was her usual moody self and arguing with Momma. 

I Keep Forgettin'...


I was at the bowling alley with Teddy, Marla & Kimberly. Warren was there. He just bowled a strike. I was about to ask what lane PawPaw was on, but remembered he had passed away months ago. I told my sibs what I had almost asked them. They just shook their heads, then ignored me. Then a few bowling monitors merged together and formed one huge screen. An announcement was gonna be made. Everybody gathered to watch, but I woke up before anything was said.

Death in the Hood

I was with LaMar at his house. A man a couple of streets over from him just died. He was about PawPaw's age and was a drug dealer. I went to the house to offer my condolences and his daughter (or maybe she was his granddaughter) wanted to know if I would be interested in taking over his business or doing business with them. I told them I wasn't interested and couldn't understand why they asked me that.  As I got ready to leave their home, I was about to cry thinking about how much I missed PawPaw. Then I saw my cousin Olivia.
