My Former Classmate SB Working As An Artist And Now Looks A Bit Like Benedict Cumberbatch

I had several dreams last night but I forgot them all except for barely part of the end of my last dream, and I did not voice record any of my dreams from last night.

There was more that happened in the dream that I can not remember where I think that I traveled with my parents’ and/or several other people during the day to several fictional locations, and several other things happened that I can not remember.

At some point we went inside a building with maybe carpeted floors with various hallways and rooms where people could open small businesses/shops/et cetera, and we walked around exploring/shopping.

At some point we entered a room that possibly had one or more windows and maybe a door to an outdoor maybe courtyard-like area, and in this room we saw various paintings and other forms of art.

Standing in the room was a tall somewhat serious man dressed in painting-like clothes with maybe a painter’s hat to protect his hair who looked a bit like the actor Benedict Cumberbatch, he was the one who made all the art in the room and he was selling it, and we greeted him.

I quickly realized that he looked familiar, he recognized me, he said my name, he asked me if I remembered who he was, and I asked him if he really was my former classmate SB; and he said yes.

I was surprised how tall he was now, how serious he was now, how his voice was different now, and how he now looked a bit like the actor Benedict Cumberbatch playing a serious character/artist.

I told him that he looked like the actor Benedict Cumberbatch now and that if he slightly adjusted his outfit and hair and walked around the building that some people would think that he was him, and I somewhat jokingly told him that I heard that Mr. Cumberbatch is pretty popular with women/the ladies; and so he might get some extra attention.

He started adjusting his outfit, his hair, and his hat (he adjusted his hat to look a bit like the deerstalker hat of Mr. Cumberbatch’s character Sherlock Holmes from the BBC TV show Sherlock) and he asked me/us how he looked; and we helped him until he looked even more like Mr. Cumberbatch, and I remember smiling/laughing a bit because it was funny how he was actually following our advice as an experiment to see if people would really think that he was Mr. Cumberbatch because until this point he acted so serious.

We briefly talked about our lives and he told me that he was married and that he had a child now to my surprise, I looked at him and I sensed that his/their child was a boy, and I told him this and he said that I was correct/right; and I told him how I was surprised by this, except for the part about him having a son, because somehow it just seemed like he would have a son one day.

He showed me/us some of his art for sell and I noticed some portraits of people, and I asked him how much it would cost for his least expensive portrait to have a portrait painted of me/myself; and he told me $300 or $300-something.

I looked at him making it clear that I could not afford that, he looked back at me letting me know that he knew this, and we both looked at each other in agreement smiling a bit because it was a bit funny for some reason.

We said a few more things and I told him that I wanted to buy something but I could not afford to buy anything unfortunately, he said that he has more expensive prices because he needs to make a living for him and his family, and I told him that I know; and I told him that it was good to see him again, and I wish him well.

We said goodbye and I/we walked away to continue exploring the building as my former classmate SB stayed inside his art shop, but he was going to close soon for the day; and I felt that he would walk around the building a while to see if anyone thinks that he was Mr. Cumberbatch, but I woke up.

The end,

Zombies And Sherlock Holmes And Mycroft Holmes And Becoming Old

Source: Wikimedia Commons

I barely remember part of one dream from last night, the dream took place in either a fictional version of the city of D or in a fictional city with a slightly fictional area from the city of D, and the dream mostly took place in an area that looked somewhat like the downtown area of the city of D near where the BP Library should be; and the dream took place over the time period of many years.

It seemed that the city was somewhat messed up/abandoned and like most people were either dead and/or hiding and/or gone, my family and I were probably hiding at my parent’s house but I can not remember if that is correct or not, and there were zombies in the city; and at some point I think that I walked to the downtown area to look for food/water/supplies/a safer place to live/et cetera for my family and I.

I probably had some mêlée weapons with me and I remember sneaking around trying to avoid zombies, maybe I killed some zombies as well but I can not remember if that is correct or not, and at some point I came across Sherlock Holmes from the BBC TV show Sherlock who was also searching for food/water/supplies/a safer place to live/et cetera; and so we worked together to find those things, I remember us sneaking around gathering supplies, and sometimes we fought zombies.

At some point we decided to go inside a nice brick multi-story apartment/hotel-like building to gather supplies and to see if we could clear the zombies out to make it safe, I remember the building being somewhat dimly lit but nice looking inside with many hallways and rooms and floors, and we sneaked around fighting zombies; and it seemed that this building would be a nice safe/sturdy place to live once we cleared the zombies out.

At some point we were on an upper floor after killing most or all the zombies and to our surprise a man approached us, the man was Sherlock’s brother Mycroft Holmes from the BBC TV show Sherlock, and he greeted us; and he welcomed his brother Sherlock, and he showed us the other survivors living in the building.

Mycroft and the other survivors had lived on the upper floors where it was safer but now all or most of the building was safe thanks to Sherlock and I, we were introduced to the other survivors and thanked, and they showed us around and explained how they had survived so far; and they invited our families/friends/et cetera and us to come live in the building as well, and so after checking the building again to make sure that it was safe I left to bring my family to the building and a family of survivors who(m) I met/saved earlier in the dream.

Sherlock, my family, the family of survivors I saved/met earlier in the dream, and I moved into the building and there was a jump in time in the dream showing us over the years as we all became a great help to everyone at the building and we turned the building and the entire area around it into a safe zone for other survivors; and some of the members of the family that I saved got married to some of the people who had already lived at the building and they had children, and those children grew up over the years during the dream until they were adults.

So at the end of the dream Sherlock, Mycroft, my parent’s, and I were much older and you could see that we had aged but we were still important members of the community helping keep the community safe/going; and I remember us standing outside having a good time joking around before splitting up to do security patrols and to search for food/water/supplies/et cetera, and the area was pretty safe because we cleared the area of zombies every day until there were little to no zombies left in this part of the city but I woke up.

Sherlock Holmes Versus Sherlock Holmes

Source: Wikimedia Commons

I had several detailed dreams last night but I forgot most of them and my memory of the few that I remember is fading fast, and so I will try to type what I remember.

Dream 1

One dream involved me going on vacation and/or trying to find a job/a place to live/et cetera, my family might have went separately with me as well but I am not sure, and the dream took place in several fictional cities with one of the cities being like L & one city being like LC but I can not remember the other cities.

In the dream I went around various cities job searching by asking people/looking around/et cetera & probably applying for jobs, I probably stayed at several hotels/motels, I probably ate/drank at several restaurants, and I probably tried to have some fun around each city, and maybe I spent some time with my family; but I can not remember most of the dream, but I know that it was long & detailed.

During one part of the dream I went to a small fictional city/town that was in a past dream where I stood in line outside of a chemical-like plant with other people who were looking for a job there, in this dream I got to see a few other areas in the city, and I stopped at a store to ask people about job openings in the area; and I came across a thin man with whitish colored skin with a blue & white colored baseball cap/hat who had been in that past dream looking for a job as well, and he said that he remembered seeing me outside the chemical-like plant because he was there looking for a job as well.

He said that there were no job openings at the chemical-like plant, we talked about jobs and some of our past experiences, but that is all that I can remember of this dream.

Dream 2

The next dream that I can remember involved me seeing a fictional TV show called Sherlock Versus Sherlock, it was a TV show about Sherlock Holmes from the BBC TV show Sherlock played by the actor Benedict Cumberbatch competing with & being joined by another Sherlock Holmes from a fictional American copy of the BBC Sherlock TV show called Sherlock US, and I think that the first episode might have taken place in D at some point.

As I watched this new fictional TV show I still liked the BBC Sherlock Holmes played by Mr. Cumberbatch better than the fictional US Sherlock Holmes, as expected, and they both had different personalities/accents/styles/strengths as expected; and the BBC Sherlock Holmes was like he is on the BBC TV show Sherlock, and so nothing changed there.

There was a lot of back & forth arguing/joking/sarcasm/insults/competition/et cetera between the two Sherlock Holmes, and so this helped make the TV show more interesting & funny wondering what clever things they would say to each other next; and the BBC Sherlock Holmes was better being clever/saying clever things than the US Sherlock Holmes.

As they both tried to solve cases they would use their various strengths as the camera & sound effects would adjust showing their various abilities, and they would compete to see who could find the most clues/et cetera; and during one of these cases they were outside my grandfather’s yard next to the street arguing/competing/investigating/et cetera a crime scene or case, but I can not remember the rest of the dream.

Dream 3

I had another dream that took place during the day in D, my aunt DE came over to my parent’s house, and I remember my family & my aunt DE & I leaving in two separate automobiles; and my aunt DE rode in my parent’s automobile, I remember saying a few things to my aunt DE before we left by the peach tree, but that is all that I can remember.

Dream 4

I think that I had another dream that involved a school, I remember talking to a woman & a man who both had whitish colored skin in a classroom near a window & the dream took place during the day, and I think that the woman angrily said something negative about dreams to/toward me like:

“You and your dreams, you need to forget them because they do not matter, reality is what matters; and so you are just wasting your time!”.

The man tried to get her to calm down and the woman & I had a debate / conversation about dreams, but it did not go well because she got very angry like she hated dreams for some reason; but that is all that I can remember, and I woke up at some point.

The end,
