Hi everyone :D
I'm not really sure what to say about this one other than, hope you never find yourself in such a stressful situation. Enjoy!
*Old Dream - April 9, 2025
***
I was playing an online multiplayer video game and somehow started voice chatting with a guy that was on my team. We talked a bunch about the game and then I had to go do something else.
My husband was getting papers ready for a work presentation and needed copies made. He was holding a big stack of paper and looked really stressed so I said I'd help.
We quickly headed to a print shop where I found out the guy who worked there was the one I was chatting with. I don't know how I knew, but most likely by his voice and talking style. He was surprised too.
I told the guy about the big print job and he looked through the pages (since there were dividers and miscellaneous stuff too) and asked how many copies we needed. By that time, my husband got pulled into a group call somehow and he was getting upset. Thankfully he was able to reply that he needed 20 copies.
By the end of the call, my husband was even more stressed and decided to go to the office to prepare for the presentation and told me to bring the copies when finished
After the guy started the printing process I asked him how he ended up at the job -- like what he did before, etc. He said he just came upon it and wanted to try and that he used to do modelling for a bit. I asked if he had any photos from his modelling days and if yes, whether I can see them.
He said he did have some but was too shy to share. I was really curious so I tried asking again to see just one, but that didn't work either :(
Then my husband came back and was wondering where the copies were. Unfortunately they were still being printed -- literally just spitting out from the machine. My husband was getting stressed again, but there was nothing to do but wait.
I woke up around this time. I don't think the print job got finished before that :(

Thanks for reading! I can only imagine my husband must have been going through a rough patch with work or something really stressful for me to dream of this. Have you ever been through a day where nothing seems to go right? How did you get through it?
PS: This is the last dream from 2025, so I'll be posting something from 2026 next time. Yes, it'll be 2027 soon, but the backlog is finally starting to clear up :D
