Dreams

I had a rather strange dream last night.

I dreamt I was back at Carroll, playing with the Wind Symphony. What was most unusual about it, though, aside from the fact that for some reason we weren't on stage, was that the musicians consisted not only of students, but of non students as well. There were classmates from highschool that didn't even go to Carroll, and there were adults, as well. We were playing some piece that was supposed to sound Oriental, but it just wasn't working, and I remember thinking to myself, "The brass is too loud." All I had to do was strike a gong at the right time. Luckily for me we kept playing the same passage over and over again, and I kept getting to strike the gong.

As rehearsal wound down all I thought about was, "I wish this was over so I could play with some LEGOs." As rehearsal wrapped up some people gathered outside the auditorium, opening the doors and listening to us. When everything was done and I sat down to play with those LEGOs, right there in the auditorium, some of the people came in. Shortly after I started building something with the LEGOs, someone sat down next to me and started talking to me. It turned out to be Marie, and she started talking to me the way she did when we spent a lot of time together. After one good look at her face I tried not to look at it again, instead concentrating on the LEGOs. Every so often, though, I tried to look at her hands to see if she was wearing a wedding ring.

Like I said, it was very odd.
