A Death in the Family, Dreamed 4/8/10

These dreams felt like a series of dreams with a reoccurring theme...

A very close friend's dad committed suicide by driving a heavy piece of machinery into the side of their house (which didn't look like their real house). Throughout the entire dream(s) I was very distraught by the news. The family had a gathering to mourn the loss. The house had a large beach ball colored igloo attached to the garage. My friend and I walked through the garage and was greeted by some other family members. A man came up to us to show my friend how to plant a plant using a bag of frozen stir fry vegetables.

[I think this is where the next dreams starts since throughout the rest of the dreams I couldn't figure out if the suicide actually occurred or if it was something I dreamed about]

In the beach ball igloo Marylin Manson and his henchman were printing documents. The henchman held up the printer like he was using it to worship something. There just happened to be a thunderstorm going on during this and I was afraid that he was going to get hit by lightning while holding up the printer.

Another friend (male) was supposed to pick me up from my house. Instead of pulling up into the driveway he wanted me to walk, at night, in the rain, down the highway to a heavily trafficed intersection 2 miles away so he could pick me up there. When he got to my actual house he pulled up in a HUGE van. I ran to my room to get my chapstick with one shoe on and the other 1/2 way on. I was also wearing sweatpants. When I got into the car it was actually another (female) friend driving. I told her about the suicide, after mentally checking that it happened and wasn't a dream, while crying my eyes out.

I was at a store in the mall when I found 2 coupons. I gave one to the girl I was with (not the same person driving the van). My coupon was good for a free container of medication that would prevent depression but wouldn't make me feel all loopy. The other coupon was for a $700 purse at the cost of $200. After we left the store she was really mad that she didn't get anything for free. She ended up going back into the store, returned the first purse and bought a cheaper one.

When I woke I had to remind myself that the suicide never actually happened.

(It was an unusual and very sad suicide since the family involve are a wonderful, happy, loving family and this seemed WAY out of character)
