I had more dreams that I remembered, but I forgot most of them after not recording them; which is a shame because one of the dreams was probably interesting, and was remembered clear enough to record until I went back to sleep.
Dream 1
This dream was forgotten, but a few flashes of memory just came back to me.
All that I can remember of this dream is that part of the dream involved sleeping in the side position / side sleeping / side sleepers.
Another part of the dream took place during the day outside in the city of D near the traffic lights by the NF Gas Station, and there was a woman standing in the road under the traffic lights.
A young man waited at a red light started talking to or flirting with her, but that is all that I can remember of this dream.
All that I can remember of this dream is that I was at work at The BP Library, except a fictional, larger version that was maybe in a building at a shopping center.
The entrance was at the end of a covered walkway (catwalk) with the left side of the building blocking your visibility of the rest of the shopping center and parking lot.
This dream took place at a fictional version of The BP Library that had a narrow cafeteria that staff and patrons could use, and I was there at work.
I met several of my coworkers in the dream like maybe Mr. JM, maybe my female coworker MH, maybe my coworker Ms. SG, my female coworker KE, my coworker Ms. CM, and maybe one or two others.
Sleep Paralysis And/Or Dream 1
The first dream/experience took place about thirty minutes after I went to sleep or was almost sleep last night, I am not sure if I was dreaming or awake or if it was both, either way I remember laying in bed in a dark room; and my brother GC was on the left side of the room sleeping on his bed.
I was laying in bed about to go to sleep, then maybe I went to sleep but woke up a few minutes later still in bed, and I was experiencing sleep paralysis where I could not move and I could not talk; and I realized that this was sleep paralysis so I was pretty calm, and then I saw a hallucination of a mostly orangish colored cat with maybe a bit of small whitish colored stripes/patterns/whatever that was on the edge of my brother GC’s bed.
I thought that this was funny and cute and I felt positive, I reminded myself that this was probably a hallucination because I was having sleep paralysis, and so I decided to enjoy watching this hallucination as the cat moved around on the edge of my brother GC’s bed; and I thought that this was interesting/cool, but then things became scary/freaky and negative.
The cat changed into a freaky/scary/strange bald small naked (it was possibly shedding skin after transforming so it did not look naked in the normal sense, and it probably did not have a penis or vagina) humanoid creäture with pale maybe grayish colored skin with a wrinkled neck like it was covered in foreskin or like its skin was still shedding from transforming; and its body was shaped strangely almost like the shape of the cat combined with a humanoid, no tail or paws or fur or anything like that but a strange body shape, and it was walking/crawling on all fours.
Things were no longer positive and I became afraid like during normal sleep paralysis, I tried to move and yell to warn my brother GC but I could not move and I could only barely mumble, and the humanoid was looking at me smiling with an evil grin like it was trying to scare me; and it slowly crawled/walked/climbed on all fours next to my face staring at me smiling with an evil grin as I struggled to try to move or yell.
My brother GC was still sleep in his bed, I was panicking and I reminded myself that this was probably sleep paralysis and a hallucination that was not real, and so I closed my eyes telling myself this and I took a deep breath to relax; and then in a few seconds when I relaxed a bit I quickly opened my eyes and I tried to jump up in bed, hoping to be able to move and grab the humanoid, but when I opened my eyes my body only shook like I was scared awake.
I was still in my bed and I could move now, the humanoid was gone, and my brother GC was still sleep in his bed; and so I was not sure if I had a dream of having sleep paralysis and hallucinations or if this happened in the real world or if this happened in the real world and in a dream.
Dream 2
I think that the second dream was maybe inspired by the films The Hunger Games and Divergent and/or something like that, I think that the dream possibly involved being poor and oppressed by a government maybe, but that is all that I can remember of this dream.
Dream 3
All that I can remember of my third/last dream is that it took place at a probably windowless fictional elementary school that possibly was supposed to be P Elementary School or at least inspired by it, I was possibly a student there but I am not sure if I was younger or not, and some of my former classmates were there like my former male classmate WT.
I think that our teacher was a woman and that the school was a large one-story building with large open halls/areas, our classroom was on the left side near the center of the building near a large open area at the center of the building, and the dream was normal at first with us having class; and me talking with my former classmates, and maybe we talked about old memories.
I can not remember most of the dream but at some point in the dream things got strange and something strange was happening that I think involved light/good/et cetera versus dark/evil/et cetera, and maybe we were going to have to pick a side; but first we were going to experience each side, starting with light/good, and so we went on a mission for light/good.
A few of my classmates wanted to join dark/evil, some wanted to join light/good, and some of the others and I wanted to see what both sides were like/about/believed/behaved/et cetera; and even then some of us possibly would not want to choose a side.
Our test mission for light/good is unclear but it involved something about Santa Claus, I guess we were playing the role of Santa Claus who had to go to the side where the dark/evil was to retrieve something (maybe gifts) and then maybe deliver them to people, but I can not remember what the mission was about exactly.
This mission would allow us to see the dark/evil side while also having an idea of something that the light/good side normally does, we walked across the school either to the right side of the school or another building connected to the school, and there was a dark/evil entity who controlled this area.
The walls of this area had a strange substance on the walls with maybe egg-like things like the lair of an insect-like alien, some people were probably trapped in one of the rooms where the main dark/evil entity lived, and we probably got attacked by various creatures as we tried to collect objects (maybe gifts) and maybe help save people who were trapped/imprisoned; and the main dark/evil entity attacked us as well but I can not remember what he looked like exactly, and that is all that I can remember of this dream.

I would like to apologize to Ms. Swinton, anyone reading this, and myself for even typing this dream fragment, but I felt that my dream recall/memory would possibly be negatively effected/affected if I did not type it. (If I do not record my dreams, then I usually start having a harder time remembering my dreams and/or feeling like recording my dreams)
Unfortunately and/or fortunately I can not remember 99% of my dreams from last night due to various factors such as: not being in my bed, not having my pillow that my grandmother made for me when/before I was born (yes I sleep with an ancient pillow that is a bit older than me 😀 ), being in an unfamiliar place (an undisclosed location), waking up several times (to use the bathroom), et cetera.
All that I can remember, which does not make sense since/because I can not remember the rest of the dream, is I remember being inside a dark and/or dimly lit room sitting on the edge of a bed with the actress Tilda Swinton (without blond hair, it was an orangish & brownish color) I think?
We were sitting side-by-side and I think that I was talking to Ms. Swinton about something involving us, but she kept licking my arm for some strange unknown reason(s).
I think that I was trying to distract her from licking my arm, I do not remember anything romantic about it/the dream/that, and even in the dream I found it strange/uncomfortable/nasty/annoying/et cetera that she was licking my arm; and so I do not remember this dream being sexual from my side/point-of-view.
I think that my distracting her was not just for my sake but that it was also to prevent someone or several other people from seeing her do that, even though I do not think anyone else was in the room at the time, but I can not remember anything else about the dream exactly except that maybe we had a relationship of some kind; but I am not sure what kind of relationship we had, if any.
If I could remember more of the dream then maybe what I do remember would make more sense because what I do remember, which I just typed, makes no sense to me; and what I do remember of the dream is strange and it is a bit nasty.
I do know that there was more that happened in this dream before that point and after, but I can not remember any of those parts of the dream; and so this dream lacks important parts that would give it some context if I could remember those parts of the dream.
