I was at work and one of the guys I worked with was in a glass office with his boss who was giving him a quarterly review. I looked over and gestured to give some moral support to my coworker. I had a feeling it was going to be a bad meeting because this boss was reknowned as an infamous jerk around the office.

A little later, as I was getting ready to leave for the afternoon, I grabbed a notebook and looked over again to wave goodbye and noticed the boss pacing, and yelling at my coworker who was standing casually by a window, arms folded. I made another surreptitious gesture of support and solidarity and became very angry when I suddenly noticed the boss - who had a big mustache like in the 80s - was smoking furiously.

Then, in my own self-righteous indignation, I looked down and noticed a flaming cigarette in my own hand! I looked up and saw a sign that said "No fumar" with a picture of a cigarette and a circle with a line through it. This was odd only because I'm not Spanish so upon awakening I wondered why I'm suddenly dreaming in a language I don't speak very well.

Anyway, so I ran to the stairwell where fumar was apparently allowed, lol, and finished my cigarette. Then I went to my friend's house because there were two dirty square glass vases in the kitchen sink and I really wanted to wash them. They had sticky notes on them and one of the sticky notes said "Tommy." I don't know anyone named Tommy, so whatever.

Then I left and went to borrow the same friend's boat which was actually a bathtub - like one of those claw foot types. I got in the boat and took it out in the ocean. It was going very fast but didn't have a motor and I passed some people who looked familiar - I recognized one from my sangha - who were in their own boats.

Then my notebook and something else fell out of the boat. I wanted to look over the tall sides of the tub, but when I did it almost tipped over. I remember being very terrified at that time and I said to myself, "Smiling, you are on the ocean and you will die if you don't get serious about driving this bathtub."

I noticed a drain plug where a drain plug would normally be located in an old tub. I also vaguely remember thinking to myself what would happen if I pulled it out.

My seriousness overcame my fear and and I became hyper focused on piloting the vessel, but then the phone rang and woke me up and it was my friend whose vases I had washed in the dream calling. I recounted the dream and we both laughed so hard.

It was kind of a fun dream - it felt like I was in a cartoon - even though it wasn't animated and it was really scary at that one point where I stared my impending death in the face, lol.
