Throwing a Wrench in Things
#1
It seems none of the available browsers are allowing me to put in my dreams. So I hope this is the correct place to put them.
There are tons of dreams I need to put in, but I'll just start with the most recent - the one I had last night. Its really been eating at me for whatever reason:

In this dream I am standing somewhere looking at this HUGE clock tower. I feel like I am anxiously awaiting something, but I don't really know what. All I know is that it seems like I have been waiting FOREVER. I think to myself that the time must be really important, otherwise why would I even be standing in front of a clock tower? So I look up and I am shocked to see the face of the clock. The numbers are not 1-12, instead, I see 2001 -2012. I wonder what kind of strange clock this is that would count years instead of minutes and who would build something like this? And what would happen once the clock struck 2012? Whats more, I knew that 2012 had long since come and gone, so what was up with this clock? The dates on its face were somewhat recent... but the clock itself looked so very old.... and it had an old image on it. I've seen this image around ALOT, usually as some sort of home decor. The image of a circle where half of the circle was the sun and the other half was the moon. In the dream, it gave the clock a sort of medieval feeling... or at least to me it did.

Also, something else that seemed weird, the hand of the clock was wiggling, but not moving. It was stuck on 2011. For some reason this REALLY upset me. I just sort of cocked my head to one side as I watched the hand wiggle, hoping in my mind that it would straiten itself out. Maybe it was my OCD, but it seemed like everything about this was driving me nuts!

Then I looked down just in time to see some shady looking figures go into the base of the clock tower. I felt scared for a moment for some reason and paced back and forth for a bit until I decided that I wasn't scared, I was ANGRY. I got SO ANGRY that I could feel my cheeks burning, so I went into the base of the tower after them.

Once inside, it was very dark, but I could see many people in there fiddling with the clocks mechanical guts. Many of them were hunched over doing things that I couldn't quite see because they had hooded capes on that blocked my view, but then there were others dressed in very fancy clothes.

I watched one nicely dressed man in particular walk up several flights of stairs, and very calmly throw a great, big wrench into the gears that, I guess, moved the clock's hands. I wanted to scream at him from the top of my lungs...not out of fear, but out of anger. Just before I did, some guy grabbed my shoulder and shook his head. I complained that I was going to miss "The birthday party" because of these jerks, but he told me not to worry. I just needed to wait a bit longer because one of two things was going to happen. Either the wrench would snap in two and the clock would continue, or there would be a huge explosion and the guys messing with it would end up accidentally blowing themselves up . Either way, the clock would reach the end of its cycle. Until then, he said, I needed to go home and prepare for the party. I decided that he was probably right. It seemed like it was going to be an awesome party and when I took a second to observe myself, I saw that my clothes were a bit raggedy. I wanted to go home and find something nicer to wear, fix my hair and fix up my makeup... in fact, when I realized how horrible I looked, I felt a bit embarrassed to even be out of the house. I was sure that with a bit of work, I would be the life of the party, and got really excited thinking about it!

I left the clock tower with the man and decided to look back at it one last time before leaving. When I did, and saw the hand wiggling as if it were really struggling to hit 2012, I wondered what would happen after it did. Would it then reset to hit 2001? I was just about to ask the guy about it when I woke up from a good slap to the face from my new baby.
