change of habitation leads to dreaming

i had my new apartment dream last night. i always have a nightmare about my old apartment when i move to a new apartment. i am sure that i had one when i was living in baltimore and i moved out of g-------'s house to my own place, but i was too stoned all the time back then to remember it now. anyway living in his slobbish house with his dog was nightmare enough, although he is a good drinking buddy.

and when i moved to sunset park i had a nightmare in which i dreampt that i had in fact moved out of that newly renovated, high ceilinged new york apartment TO the low ceilinged, funky, ramshackle baltimore apartment (that was nevertheless larger and half the price, even though it didn't have a bathroom sink)--and i stumbled around in the mess and dust holding my head and saying "what have i done, why did i do that".

so last night i dreampt that instead of moving to my nicer park slope apartment i had in fact moved to a similar apartment with a roommate, who was John that lived next to me in River dorm senior year. now john isn't a bad guy but i can't stand roommates and having to sleep in the same room as someone every day is so horrible, but in the dream i had just put down a large broker's fee to get this apartment and, apparently, share it with him. our beds were sparated by a low wall.

i was looking over his shoulder as he was showing me a computer game and then suddenly i thought that i wanted to jerk off, so i went to the other side of the wall and realised that it was only a low wall and not a separate room and that there was no way i could jerk off there with him right on the other side. so i went to the bathroom but it was a public bathroom. so i went and stood by the window and held my head and said "what have i done, i'll have to move and waste so much money"

and when i woke up i was really relieved that none of it was true.
