I am at a glamorous party that is part of a big festival weekend. There is dancing and a man embraces me in a waltz. He is showing off and we start to spin. We hold both of our hands together and as we spin our arms stretch until we are as far apart as we can be without hitting the furniture pushed up against the walls in the large room. We are spinning so fast that he is able to leap off the ground and up as high as the ceiling as I spin him. He dips down almost touching the ground before I lift him back up again. Once he is on his feet again, I try to leap and dip towards the ground, but I end up with a mouth full of carpet.
After the party, it's time to head back to my hotel room. I know I don't have any food in there, so I run to the grocery store to pick up some snacky stuff. As I walk around, I realize that I don't know much about what's going on. I'm in Ireland, but why isn't my husband here? How long will I be here? Who will take care of the animals?
I see the food that I want and it's underneath some raw chicken cutlets. I pick up a pair of tongs and a serving fork from a nearby shelf and use it to move the chicken, but I see that everything is contaminated now. I don't know what to do with these tongs and fork. They belong to the store and they need to be washed, but there's no "dish return" area.
I find a corner of the store where there is a trash can. I think I'll abandon the items there on the floor, and the cleaners will see them there and wash them. As soon as I set them down, a voice comes across the intercom, "I literally can't believe we have to say this, but don't leave items on the floor!"
I am so embarrassed! I pick them up immediately with an apologetic expression, ready to beg forgiveness from any employee I see. I start hunting for a sink so I can was the items myself. I open one door and behind it is a church congregation sitting down in a church basement having a "fellowship" meal. Shit! I hope I didn't interrupt them praying! I open another door and it leads to a high school hallway full of more doors. Two teenagers walk through the door behind me and I realize that the door is about to lock behind me. I grab the bottom edge of the door and keep it from shutting all the way. That door now goes to a big gymnasium. In the gym I find a girls' bathroom. The toilets have sinks built in to the tanks. I sit frontways on a toilet and wash the dishes I have. I leave them on the bathroom counter.
I walk outside and see the festival being cleaned up. It looks to be in a large city, but I understand it to be a nearby small town. They are taking down Christmas light displays. The man I was dancing with earlier has a garden hose. He has it on the jet setting but is only allowing enough water to pass that it comes out with low pressure about the diameter of a drinking straw. He is holding the hose at hip height and spraying the water on a light display below a balcony. I realize that he is pretending that the hose is his penis and that he is urinating on the lights. The other men around are laughing, I think they are being childish and disgusting.
