Dreams as I understand it are bits and pieces of thoughts, feelings, and memories blended into single narratives. Those narratives may be lucid or vague, and can be coherent or not. I never believed that dreams are messages from the other side because I’ve never had them. To me, there are more like movies made up at random by my brain.

Last night I found out my phone service was barred from making outgoing calls and messages because I had forgotten to pay my bill. I called the service line of my phone company but the department that deals with accounts has closed.

I felt powerless.

Plus you all know how I’ve been “lacking it“.

So I had a dream last night and it revolved around those two things. And here’s how it went…


An ex-girlfriend has called me out for lunch out of the blue. I went to the restaurant and saw her colleagues. I asked them where she was and they said that they didn’t know. I instinctly reached for my phone to realise I don’t have it on me. “Never mind,” I thought. I’d just get her number from one of her colleagues and call from a payphone.

But, not a single one of them has her number. I wondered out loud how do they get in touch with her then. One of them then said, she lives in the hotel near their office, “Maybe you could try there.”

I then turn to the rest of them to say thanks and bye when one of them said to me, “Hurry she’s horny.” I smiled and got excited.

I ran to the hotel and to the front desk. I was just about to ask them to put me through to her room when it hit me: I don’t remember her name.

Then I woke up.


It kinda makes sense, doesn’t it? I feel incapacitated and vulnerable without my phone plus I’m sexually frustrated. I mean, in the dream I almost got to the end goal except I couldn’t remember her name and was therefore denied the reward. Now that’s frustration.
