Lost in Boston
I am staying in Boston for a few days. I have some drinks, then I go for a long walk. I randomly run into three people I know from the symphony. They are visiting a friend and they invite me into the house. I walk through the house then say goodbye and walk back towards where I am staying. I realize that I was not paying attention earlier, so I don't know where I am. I try to guess the directions, but I definitely end up taking a different route. My phone is dead, and I can't remember the name of the address. I am worried. I become lucid for a while, but then I lapse back into the dream. I think that Boston looks somewhat like Winnipeg. I overhear some young kids discussing the U.S. Constitution.

Can't Quite Realize I Am Dreaming
I am at some sort of party. I continually "wake up" but every time I am still dreaming. I question several times whether I am dreaming but I never quite make the jump to being lucid. I have at least 6-7 false awakenings before finally waking up with my arm almost asleep.
Late For A Gig
I'm at home. Terreon is staying at my place while he's in town. I come home and he is sleeping on my bed when I turn the light on. I tell him he can stay there. He says I am much cooler than Curtis, who made him sleep on the couch. I am on my way to a gig and I am getting dressed. I have a lot of trouble getting my clothes on, but I finally do. I run out to the car, and things keep going wrong. It ends up being "7:83" according to my watch, and the gig started at 7, so I am 83 minutes late. The gig is at the Club Regent with Kirby, Jimmy Greene, and Curtis. I am panicking.

Curtis Gets Screwed
I am sitting at a gig with Curtis. We have just played and we had a couple of beers. The bartender didn't ask for any money. MD comes up to Curtis and tells him that the drinks weren't free but she paid for them. She says that he can make the check out to her. He agrees and gives her a check for $85. I tell her that I thought it was an open bar since I didn't see any sign and the bartender didn't ask for money. She insists that she is correct. Kirby tells Curtis that he just got screwed. I get very upset and get up to go over and grab the check from her to rip it up but I wake up before I get that far.

%10 Off Local Japanese Artists
I am getting a ride with a man. He goes into a shop at the Forks and gets in an argument with another man. He ends up accidentally killing the other man. He runs back to the car. A cop approaches the car. Somehow we escape, and we're driving around the city. I give him some driving advice to help us get away as quickly as possible. I suspect that he has been drinking. We pull into a gas station. Suddenly the man becomes Jesse Dietschi. The man at the pump tells us that if we buy some Japanese product it is %20 off. We go into the shop, which becomes a bookstore. There is a set of 2 volumes called something like "Fundamentals of Piano Technique." I decide I want to buy them, as they are supposed to be classics. Jesse asks me what other piano technique material I have read, and I tell him that the main one I've really checked out is "Great Pianists and Their Technique" but I don't use that title. I look at the price of these books and I am surprised by how cheap they are, as is Jesse. I go to purchase them and the salesman tells me they are %10 because they are written by a local Japanese artist. I am shocked that these classic piano texts are by a local guy I have never heard of. He tells me that he is very reclusive and nobody knows about him.
