Fluffy Spider

1. Singing in Pairs

Meat. Special class, Woli and I happen to be there. There is also a girl present that is with us. Something is done a lot. Difficult.

Outside. Students, everyone is pairing up, and in theory this happens from a distance, which means in advance of seeing each other.
I am alone. Mother is there. At the end mother is the victim of a practical joke. All this has to do with each other, the pairing up.
There is a lot of singing. People sing a lot. She (mother?) is being laid in water, under water. The song is called "from B to D" (which are the names of my uncle and aunt). I help her go under water, she falls, after that everyone makes fire, but I did not bring anything because I did not know. But Rome is there too and he wants something something, but he misswallows himself. Something something.

2. Neighour's Apartment

Something something, apartment, neighbours. (Can't read the rest of my notes at all).
(Can't read notes).
Toothpaste, night.

3. Poem of the Year 2000

Living room, food is being served. There is not a lot of space in the sofa. Maki stands next to me, we have a discussion about Dutch as a language. Can Dutch be closer something something. She sits so close to me that I sometimes wish she would move a little and then we would match perfectly and she would sit on my lap and it would fit perfectly, her body on my body. But there are too many other people around so I don't try anything, and she is innocent in her closeness.
Outside, coming home from somewhere. Something is broke that must be made. Seven times (?).
Someone comes up to me and says that she or he wants a poem that I wrote in 2000, the person is very specific.
Margriet Hermans. Mother wants to tell me something, but she does not have the courage. Something something, and then I am on the phone.
Food. Maybe a choir.

4. Stones

Maybe connected with previous dream. Living room, sofa, plates with food, box with stones, a woman plays with them to get some order. Something about the woman.

5. Two Cats in the Shop

Bale, shop, condoms, I have a plate in my hands. Queuing at the till. Large shop and I am a customer. Different sections, till is all the way in the back. I am in the middle section when I start queuing, before that I was looking around. Bale is in the neighbourhood, but both of us are not connected, though she knows this place better than me.
I noticed cats when I came in, two of them in specific, still young and playful, wanting attention, but not assertive enough to come up, so I leave them be.
When I am in the middle section, there is a chair and I sit there to do something. High stool. And suddenly I notice that both cats are under the stool with me, and on my left. I see them and they want attention. By now the cats are very distinct in colour, the one is like a lion and the other like a tiger (and they remind me of the cats that were present at the workshop Wednesday). So I stretch out my left hand and the lion cat takes it and sets its teeth in me, but playful, never bites for real, and grabs me with her paws, very gentle, but strong enough. And I like it. And Bale sees it, and she wonders if they don't hurt me. First I give attention to this cat only, then the other one too.
From the shop I don't take anything with me, but something to lock my bicycle.

6. Chocolate

Sit at table, time to eat, I got a package from someone, all is wrapped in aluminum and I open it, there are bars of chocolate.

7. Pink Spider

Much earlier dream. At home of parents. First bathroom. I am alone there, I prepare. I see a spider. The atmosphere is grey and white. And the spider does not move, is big, and has the same colours. In fact, the spider stands out because of the colours. The legs are very long and white. The body has two or three colours, first of all white, but also grey, and then in two places pink, a dark pink. And the spider has fluffy parts and looks very special. But I'm not sure I want to get closer. In the dream I remember what kind of spider it is and what it means, it is a rare kind.
When it comes closer or something else happens, for example when I leave the bathroom and get in the hall next to it, I am thinking that this kind of spider needs to get in my body to make new spiders. And yet I know I should make contact, because it would yield me a lot of positive things, yet I am a bit worried that it will lodge in my body, so I go away.
But when I enter the other room, hallway, I see another such spider. And this is weird enough, because there should be only one. But one of them is spinning already, and that is why it is dangerous for me now to stay, the spider makes a sort of cobweb that looks like a cotton candy, spun sugar. And it works like a cocoon, but if I stay here I will be caught in the thing, although now it is only in proportion to the spider, but it has the size of a real cotton candy, and the spider is maybe the size of my fist, legs longer.
