Definitely another odd one.
I found myself on a faux sailboat (it had an engine and we weren't really using the sails), except I wasn't on water. Me, Nat, and a couple other people that I can't fully remember were running this little raft around a large field. The boat had wheels and the engine was motor in the back like most boats. It was good fun sailing around this field. The field reminded me of the field near Bala Cynwyd Middle School-- the one down the street on the opposite side. There were fences along the perimeter and a roads on all four sides, though you couldn't easily tell since it was so big and there were so many trees in the distance.
Eventually we sailed into a street and down a big hill (still on the street). The pavement was smooth and damp. It had probably just rained, since the sky was overcast as well. I don't remember seeing any houses around, just neatly trimmed grass, and trees-- all a lush green from the dampness. We rolled down the sloped street through an intersection and then turned right into a long driveway. The driveway actually led to Nat's parents' house, where we parked the boat in the garage.
There was another wheeled-boat in the garage, and Nat's mom tried to get us to fix it. We tried to but were unsuccessful. We started rolling out of the garage and down the driveway again on the original landboat and that's when I woke up.

Pantsless Tennis
One of the weirder ones...
I found myself in a large gym with a tennis net set up in the middle. There were large cubbies for clothes and equipment behind me and I was not wearing any pants, or any underwear for that matter (but I was wearing a t-shirt). Nat was on the other side and wanted me to play tennis with her, but I had to get to French class, which was apparently my first period high school class. I grabbed a white tennis racket that was in my assigned cubby, as well as a pair of boxer briefs an a pair of socks. I attempted to hit a tennis ball that I found on the floor back and forth with Nat as I tried to put on my underwear and socks-- it was nothing short of difficult.
Eventually I did get my underwear and socks on and told Nat I had to get to class. I found myself jogging down a hallway of a high school, presumably still in just my underwear. The whole time I was thinking about how to explain to the French teacher why I was late, or if I should even try to explain myself and just resign to bowing my head and making no excuse. I eventually reached a stairwell that was placed where two hallways met. By this time I was pretty warm, but I felt good from the jogging.

Devin's Inspiration in High School
A silly dream, short but sweet.
I remember Devin talking to me, documentary interview style, about how much MegaMan helped and inspired him in high school chemistry. He even had a poster showing many characters and referred to it. Something about plasma shields and the concepts behind that...

Fancy Restaurant, Giant Cathedral Robot, and Puppies
After some dead time I finally had a dream that I can sort of remember!
It starts in a large building that must have been a hotel with a restaurant attachment. The inside was ornate, some rooms had beautiful red and brown patterned carpeting and others had wood floors. None of it was well-lit, as restaurants tend to be. It was daytime outside, and I saw natural sunlight spill through the many windows-- some were greenhouse style and extended beyond the shade of the main structure. The walls were combination lacquered wooden panels and fancy wallpaper. Ornate wall lamps were distributed evenly so that corners unaffected by sunlight still had a warm incandescent glow.
Waiters and hosts in suits and fancy hotel uniforms bustled about, bringing food and drink to the patrons and taking away empty plates and glasses. The patrons were dressed up as well, most of them looked older. I remember my parents were with me, as well as Mr. Arden. My parents said something but I can't remember what. Mr. Arden was angry because we had played a wedding there a while back and the person that was supposed to pay us still had not done so. He strutted off in a huff to find the person responsible for our pay.
...
Just around the corner from this building was a field. By around the corner, I don't mean a street, or other buildings. The world outside seemed to have "edges" and "separators"-- big, somewhat pixelated, unnatural walls reminiscent of the world boundaries in Zelda: Ocarina of Time. The restaurant/hotel that I was in was in a corner made by these boundaries, although with enough space that there were small, flat fields of grass in all directions. Around the corner made by these partitions, however, was a path to a large, uneven field and sloped upwards a bit at places, to the point where you could not really see over it.
I found myself driving an old-timey automobile (small, flat, two-pane windscreen, thin wheels and tires, and I think it was a crank engine) onto this field. The whole area was quite muddy and the car slipped around as I drove. Mickey and Jin were in the car with me, as well as one other person that I can't seem to remember. We slipped around as we drove along, and as we got farther up the hill, we were able to see to our left the most beautiful waterfalls I've ever seen, complete with color saturation and lens flare. There were at least four or five different waterfalls, on two different tiers, and amazing, quasi-futuristic structures on either sides of the river and falls. The waterfalls were deep and colorful, shimmering green and blue in the sunlight. The hill we were driving on ended along the waterfall mostly as a sheer cliff. We drove towards a big, cathedral-like structure that was red with black detailing. It was almost gothic, but had a modern feel to it. A big, pointy steeple pointed towards the sky. Directly below that was the facade of the building, with a big circular ornate window. It reminded me of Notre Dame. Below that, just in front of the entrance, there was a huge platform, at least 20 square yards. A lone pedestal protruded ominously out of this platform, right in the center. I swung the car around and drove back towards the restaurant/hotel. As we drove along the uneven ground, the car began to slip towards the cliff. For a few moments, I felt sheer terror as I tried my best to maneuver the car. Despite lots of slipping and a very close call, I was able to drive us back to safety.
...
After driving back to safety, I found myself back at the cathedral-like structure again, standing in front of the pedestal on the platform. My sister's voice rang in my head: "Did you remember to bring the key? Did you remember to bring the key?" I did remember to bring the key, and the key looked something like large beer bottle cap, except about the size of a pringles can top. The sawtooth edges were sharp and the entirety of it was a bronze color, with designs I can no longer remember on the top. I placed the key on the pedestal in an opening that fit the key exactly and turned it three full rotations. The pedestal was apparently a complex piece of machinery and I could see and hear gears whirring underneath me. The key then turned into a button, which I pressed and held down. The circular area around the pedestal dropped into the ground like an elevator, and began moving back up and down rather quickly, causing me to almost lose my balance as I continued to hold the key button down. I then realized that this movement was to adjust for the entire building transforming into some sort of giant robotic machine on four legs. The transformation was exhilarating, and having control of this behemoth was pretty much the most awesome thing I've ever experienced. The building/robot/machine turned out to be so big I had to focus on piloting it to avoid crushing the buildings along the waterfalls and rivers. I rode the giant machine all the way down river past the restaurant and realized that I was suddenly in a small European city. I tried my best to avoid the cute little houses but ended up demolishing quite a few anyway. I felt bad, and then I realized there were people around, too, and started trying to avoid stepping on them.

I found myself in a closed room, like a small foyer or side room in a country house, with four puppies that were actually quite large. They were skinny, short hair dogs with a long slender snout. They were all mixed colors, brown, black, and white. I was demonstrating to Nat how I could tame them by looking into their eyes directly and getting closer to them. The puppies started whining and acting scared, backing away from me gradually. Nat then got upset so I showed her that this was not doing any harm, and as soon as I stopped they jumped all over me, licking my face. I rolled around and played with them, laughing the whole time.
