Music Quiz, Leaving WorldPay, Tapas

I remember several fragments of this dream with varying degrees of clarity.

The vaguest memory is from the earliest part of the dream. I remember we had builders in doing work in the garden, and something about large metal boxes / very small sheds that the previous people had left behind. They seemed to slot together and half fill the side passage.

The next part of the dream was in some kind of venue. We were at an event that seemed like a stand-up comedy show, except the guy doing it wasn't a comedian, but some guy giving a presentation that seems to have quiz elements to it.

After we'd been at the 'show' for quite a while, the guy on the stage asks a question "In music, what is a <something>?" I instinctively think it's when you lower the pitch by a tone, and then he plays some music with it in as an example and I'm sure that I was right. Someone in the audience puts up their hand and says what I was thinking and they were right.

I turn to the others in my group and say that I want to leave early to avoid the rush of people leaving, and they are all asleep. They wake up and we discuss it, and they say they want to wait until the end, even though they were all sleeping. At that moment the show finishes and everyone gets up, and I'm annoyed that no one listened to me.

The final part of my dream was the clearest, especially when I'd just woken up.

I'm at WorldPay, and it's my final week there. I'm talking to a girl (I think the Bolivian girl) about wiki pages. She says

"Who will write the wiki pages when you're gone?"

I said that I wrote the wiki page, and I wrote the tool that the page is about. I said all of the software is written by half of the test team, and the other devs just do bug fixes.

We are walking outside now because it's the end of the day, and it is sunny outside. I realise that I've worked a full day by accident, when I'm only supposed to be working half days. This means that instead of having 4 half days left I only have 3.

I'm talking to Carlos as we walk, and I tell him about an interesting tapa that I've had in a restaurant (in England). It was half of a fried pear with crispy bacon on top. He says

"I've never heard of that before, it must be from somewhere in AndalucĂ­a."

Sex Education

I have moved house into some kind of shared housing and it is my first day there. I have been given a small room, and everyone else has learning disabilities. They have asked me to be in charge of things, and said I can have a bigger and better room if I do this, and have my own supply of food.

We all ate dinner together on the first night, and the next morning I decided to accept and be in charge.

It's morning now and we are having a cooked breakfast. I am looking for something to drink when I find a bottle of beer on the side. I open it and drink some, and it tastes like a cold can of Newcastle Brown Ale. It was fridge cold, even though it was not in the fridge.

Later we are having a group sex education lesson, which seems to have a drama element to it. We are all in a large common room with a small kitchen area, and game machines such as arcade games and table football all around the edges.

We are asked to do a series of exercises, and after each one the instructor asks some of us some questions. The first exercise was something simple, and the instructor asked one of the other house mates some questions but I wasn't really paying attention.

I remember seeing the Bolivian girl from my work (WorldPay) there, and thinking she is too normal to be there, and that she looked really pretty.

The next task is to act out a sexual fantasy that is on our mind. People are doing all sorts of crazy shit, and one guy has his erect penis poking out through his flies.

I think "this is really stupid" but I decide to play along and grab a Dyson vacuum cleaner and put it on my crotch.

After the exercise, the instructor is talking again and says that it is interesting to note that "every piece of equipment was used during the exercise." She says that 2 of us were actually sexual, and implies that I was one of them, which I think is stupid as I was just playing along. I now notice that I have an erection.

At some point during the exercise, one of the guys was just standing by the table football doing nothing, and asked me if he should get Windows Vista black edition of blue edition. I told him that I didn't care.

The dream had a strange emotion of being in a new, unfamiliar place, and reminded me of the start of university or a new job.
