Dream report.

.........................................

In real life, my kitchen window looks directly into the kitchen window of the Victorian next door, but the house has been under renovation for like over two years and I've been free to leave my shades up and do whatever I like. Over the weekend, a family apparently moved into the flat. So the dream was that strangely these people (in real life it's a couple with a baby who's about 10 months) were a couple with a baby and a single mom with a baby, and that the moms were sisters and they were my distant cousins. Except that my living room was transformed into my parent's living room and their cats were there and my cat was there and Michael's parents' cats were there (this is now 5 domestic cats) but they were all snuggled up to a cheetah and there was one jaguar on the other side of the room and another outside the sliding glass door on the deck (which again, is the layout of my parent's house) and there was the sense that there were more wild things outside. So, while I'm nervous that all these domestic cats that are dear to me are snuggled up to a goddamn cheetah, my dad says, "hey, that's your cousin, let's go say hi" and we do and he introduces me because these are distant cousins on his side and I've never even heard of them. So, now I'm in this flat, and it sort of reminds me of Michael's uncle's house except it's smaller and closer to the floorplan of the actual flat, and the single mom shares a room with the two babies who are in bunk beds even though they should both be in cribs or a mattress on the floor or something, and the couple has the other room. Except they also have a large glass door leading to their backyard but it is very small and muddy and in it is a sea lion and a crocodile, both completely buried in the mud and another jaguar in a fig tree. And the guy says "Yeah, we paid the rent for a backyard for the babies, but there's a crocodile in it." And then a train goes by and it's right on the other side of the fence and I'm thinking, no wonder the sea lion and crocodile have buried themselves in the mud.

The End.
