Dreams from the past half-week or so:

I found myself biking to work on a black mountain bike. I thought about this for a minute. It wasn't my green utility bike, and it wasn't my red road bike, what was this? A-ha, it's my old bike! I was excited to realize that I had it and didn't give much thought to having ever lost it or how I got it back.

Jesus appeared in California. I knew because there was an indicator sparkle on my mini-map when it happened. I was very excited because I was expecting him to lay the smack down (on all the jerks).

I was a crewmember on the TNG enterprise. I remember walking along some wide corridors, sort of like the ones along the sides of Space Ship in Junko. Mostly I was filling out forms. I think I had to join their union, too.

This morning I dreamt that I was running up and down hills along some highway between a couple of towns northish of Madison. I had already run between them in one direction and was now running back. At one point about halfway there was a really long, straight downward slope. Maybe I was biking at this point, because I remember thinking that this part would be very easy and relaxing. Closer to the more northeastern town I was driving a bus or a large truck, and one of my passengers was worried that there would be vertical drops where the road would actuall bend downward and back under itself a little bit. I imagined this and worried a bit, too, but then remembered that I had helped build this section of road, and we had done a very fine job, so there would be no such nonsense.

I ended up at a friend (maybe Andrea)'s house sort of out in the country. They may have been on a farm, but the house was in the middle of a woodsy yard (leaves overhead but mostly grass underneath, like a park). I was looking out and watching a deer in the front 'yard' when some guy, I was thinking he was my friend's cousin or brother, came driving out onto the lawn with an oversized pickup truck, trying to hit the deer. He then chased it around into to the other side of the house. I went running after him, not sure what I Was going to do when I caught up. I went between the house and the garage, and when I got to the other side I saw a car parked a few trees away from where I was standing and thought I'd go hide under it. The dream skipped ahead and I was being detained by the guy next to the parked car. He had to go inside for something and told me not to try to escape. As soon as he left I started looking at Google maps (apparently I had my laptop with me the whole time), trying to figure the shortest route back to the road. I knew I could outrun this guy and/or lose him in the forest. At first I search for 'Green Bay', then realize that's not where I was, and started searching for 'Dodgeville'. Actually I think I was more near Baraboo.

There was a black hole that I was working on a planet nearby. Some lady was working with me, but she was new and not as good at orbital maneuvers, so I told her to stay away from the black hole and let me deal with things near it.

Later we were in a room with a guy making a presentation about determining where you are in the galaxy based on the diffuse lighting on a bunch of spheres. I don't think anyone knew where Earth was.

I got onto a bus outside of Memorial on Gammon. We ended up getting out somewhere. There were steps that I was walking down, but they weren't quite even. Sometimes there'd be twice the drop as there should've been. I wanted to even them out, and needed a sledgehammer to break the blocks (the steps were made out of blocks, like in Minecraft). As I was searching for the hammer I overheard some kid getting yelled at because he was wearing a hat. I found the hammer in a locker and also a hat, which I put on, and then went to confront the guy who was yelling at the kid. He threatened me with a screwdriver. I threatened him back with the hammer.
