Michelle: Volataris

<The beginning of this dream makes me laugh because it was definitely influenced by what I said directly before bed. I had just cleaned my bathroom and my bf, Michael, asked me if he could use my toilet (his was gross and dirty) and I said to him "Okay, but if you make a mess you have to clean it up!" I guess this concern followed me into the dream world!>


I am at my apartment and walk into my bathroom to find Michael has pooped all over everything (the toilet, the toilet brush, the floor, my bathmat-EVERYTHING!). I'm astounded that he made such a mess and tell him to help me gather everything up so we can clean. We walk outside (holding the poopy items in our arms) and walk to my grandparents' house. I tell him we can rinse everything off with the hose outside, but I tell him to be quick so that they don't see us using their stuff. I notice a security guard walk toward us, so I get nervous that he is going to kick us off the property. He happily exclaims to us that "the fair is this way!" and walks us away from the property to a fair that is going on down the street. I realize this is a fall carnival being put on by Ashland High School and the guard thinks we're students that got lost. I go along with it so that he doesn't get angry with us. I'm trying to mingle with the students while slowing backing away from the carnival and back to the house. A girl drags me to a small pond and tells me to jump in. While underwater, it looks like I am in the hallway of the house I grew up in. The floor is covered in layers of muddy sediment, and the water is somewhat green and murky. Although we are underwater, both the girl and I can still breath and talk. We see a dinosaur swimming in the water next to us. The girl looks alarmed, but I assure her it is just a "Volataris" which is an herbivorous dinosaur (I recognize it to be a dinosaur from an activity book that I had as a kid, the Placodus, which is an herbivorous dinosaur!). The Volataris swims around and eats vegetation on the bed of the lake, so I feel comforted that I was correct in my assessment of it. Suddenly, it becomes hostile and starts snapping at the girl and me. I start to dig myself into the sediment on the floor in an attempt to free up space around the basement door so I can escape. The girl swims away but the Volataris continues to snap at me. I continue to dig myself down into the sediment, trying to hide and find a way to open the basement door. I manage to dig so deep that I actually get below the door. I attempt to squeeze myself under the door while the Volataris snaps menacingly at my legs. Then I woke up!
