Stephen Colbert had written a new book. It was about his animal friends, but I do not think it was directed at children. The cover was bright yellow with a raccoon on it.

Don't mock me.

The impression I get now is that I was reading a very vivid book because I am only in parts of the dream and those parts involve preparing for a trip to my grandmother's house. The book seems to be written in first person from the point of the separated man because I remember the last part of it being from his perspective, but I don't remember the rest of his words. I will split this into "Parts I am not in" and "Parts I am in". Also, someone just commented that my descriptions are getting less detailed. Take THAT! Lastly, some

parts of this (namely the store in parts-I-am-not-in and the general setting.) are very familiar. I think I have had parts of this dream

before. Not all of it, though, because I know I haven't dreamed about Star

Trek or Spring Awakening people before, least of all in the same dream.

Parts I Am Not In:

There is a Ferengi (This is the nerdiest dream I have ever had. Hence the title of this post. Just wait, it doesn't even stay Star Trek.) talking to what I suppose is his crew. As a human captain and his crew approach he says something like, "I'd kill anyone if I had the chance, but a Klingon, I would chase until death to kill!" The captain announces he and his men are supposed to join the Ferengi crew. Cap'n Ferengi tells him to get his horses and meet him at the top of the cliff (Did I mention this exchange is taking place on a bridge going across a lake? Basically, it's a broken bowl of water. Cliff on three sides, water all over except very near the cliff walls and the side there is no cliff. It's very pretty.).

The humans go get their horses. Instead of crossing the bridge, they swim the horses across the lake (It's not very deep. I don't think they ever actually have to swim.) to climb the cliff. All of the horses succeed, except one, who slips at the very top of the cliff. In essence, the horse disappears. I guess my subconscious didn't want to kill it off. Its rider is now dangling by a rope of some sort. He can hear everyone else yelling at him to hurry up, they're all waiting, does he think he's being funny, but they can't hear him when he yells back. His rope slides and he is now face-to-face with a waterfall, behind which is the crew. Crew and separated continue to yell, but the crew seems to be deaf to his pleas.

Suddenly one of them, the only girl, thinks she hears him. From her side of the waterfall, there is glowing from the other side. Not like light, but like a thermal imaging camera. He is glowing light blue, not red/yellow/orange/whatever (very cold). She can hear him more clearly now. She tells him to touch the waterfall. He pokes his hand through. It does not appear on her side. She concludes that he is no longer alive, but a spirit. She tells him to let go. He does. The "book" ends with him waking up in Gideon Glick's arms (NOT like that. Like Glick is his guardian angel or something cheesy like that.). They seem to be in just a big white nothingness (Except there is a floor, also white), wearing white clothes. Everything glows a little bit. It's a very typical "heaven".

Parts I Am In:

In my mother's car with her, my brother, his girlfriend, and lots of luggage. We are going to visit my grandmother (My only remaining grandmother is my father's mother). Brother and I are not excited. We stop at a store that seems to sell everything nerdy, from D&D stuff to POKEMON DEODORANT. The store is located in the side of the cliff from the parts I am not in. On the way inside, I trip and end up rolling like a spy movie hero. Nobody sees me, because the floor is empty. Brother's girlfriend comes up from the lower level on the floor, says hello to me and leaves the store. I look around for a few minutes, then follow suit, only to discover that a search party has been assembled. I ask my brother who it is for. It is for me. They disperse. We get into the car and drive off.
