stranger than fiction

so more weirdness in the dream sector.
The first one happened some time last night proper.

I don't remember a whole lot about it now, but it had something to do with being the head of state of some small spanish speaking country (a language I can only sort of follow in conversation, and cannot participate in verbally in any kind of meaningful way)
I tasked my immediate subordinate (who had been the head of state before me) with doing something (I don't remember what) and instead, he ordered an exceedingly high-priced stripper. I was furious, then, while the stripper was there (fully clothed, I might add) some kind of delegate arrived for an important conference.

For some reason, this was to take place in an office on the roof of a building near an airport. During this meeting, I saw a cat, and because I am always distracted by cats, I ran out to catch it and finally did.
It was a black cat with a white spot on his chest.
His mouth was missing most of its teeth (specifically, it had six teeth), and he had a metal ring that looked like a very bent coat hanger trapped in his throat.
I was scrambling to find somebody to help the cat, because (somehow we were in Los Angeles now) specifically from my friend and his girlfriend who live there. I seemed to be a low level functionary now, as opposed to the head of state I was before, and as such, had to ask permission to use phones and things, and did not know how to get an outside line.
further analysis of the cat's missing teeth and wounds seemed to indicate that it had been the victim of specifically human abuse, which angered me almost to a blind rage.
somebody suggested I call my ex-fiance' because she'd know what to do, but I told them "NO!, because she will steal this cat from me, too."

and then I woke up.

The second dream was more interesting and random, and a lot less stressful.

The stressfulness of the first dream, I don't think comes across well in the wording, but it was very stressful and intense and at times scary. I was very frightened for the cat's life.

The second dream happened this morning, some time between 9:30 when I initially woke up, and 11:30 when I had my alarm set for.

In the dream, I had gone down to Riviera Market, which is a corner store near my house. I go there fairly frequently when I have a craving for sweets of some kind, or have money to burn and want to treat myself. Since being back in SB, the former rather than the latter has been the case, as I am more broke than I care to admit.
Once at the store, I decided on some frozen doughnuts in a freezer case, marked at 2.75. (out of my available 5.00) having made my decision, I got in line. there were three or four people ahead of me, which was no big deal. An acquaintance of mine from Colorado (who needless to say lives nowhere near Southern California) came in, playing his PS-Vita, so I talked with him for a moment and followed him to the door because he had finished his purchase. when I turned to get back in line, there were like a dozen people ahead of me in line waiting. among them, two friends of mine from high school -twin brothers- so I talked with them while waiting for the line to drop down.
Eventually the line did, and because it was so crowded, there was confusion about change for my purchase. I ended up getting the correct change, and left.
I decided, upon leaving, to go walkabout for a while before going home.

The next thing I know, I'm walking around unfamiliar streets with vegetation that is slightly different than what grows here in SB.
I walk down the hill I am on, figuring eventually I will reach something like civilization. (now, bare in mind, what I mean is that I will hit something that is not residential, because it is super weird to stop in at somebody's house and ask where you are) or at least find some kind of landmark that will tell me where I am.
Eventually, i come upon a large field with fences like backstops and such, and people training with pole-vaults. I walk through what looks like a non-essential part of the field, where athletes are stretching and such, and make my way to the far side.
While on the way, i am blocked by fences that come together in a labyrinthine fashion, so I end up having to cross the track after some people go by. I make my way along the field to the far side where there is a gate. Through the gate is an elaborate wooden structure with ramps and gates and the like. through these, I run into some people I went to high school with, and work up the nerve to ask where I am.
"San Luis Obispo High School" and one of the people from high school tells me "you know, if you are going to come to afternoon practices now, you should call ahead of time, and I can give you rides to and fro."
I thank her, and head on my way back.

There are some kids picking at the dirt near by, so i go to check it out. turns out there is a huge (and I mean HUGE) network of stinkbugs under the dirt, and they are burrowing to the surface, their stink stuff coming up through the dirt in thick oily patches. I make note to avoid these and tell some of the high school people about it, and go on my way.

then I wake up.

weird stuff. thats really all.
