I had a dream I was driving late at night with my dad. We were going to a hotel, but first we were going to stop at the house (the house where i grew up, not my current home). while we drove, my dad was trying to tie his shoe; the car door was open, and he was half way in and out of the car. the car was moving; but he was still standing, which was somehow fine. it was surreal. anyway, we were heading down the main road in town, looking for the turn onto our street. I saw two armed army officers, in fatigues, holding machine guns, at the side of the road. they were manning a checkpoint or roadblock; but they didn't flinch as we enetered the intersection. it seemd as though they had just opened up, but were still standing around keeping watch. we saw what looked like a street fair or parade taking place on our street, in the process of dispersing. we couldn't get through, and we were still two blocks from my house...
