Strange Dream I Had (warning: long post)

I had a strange set of dreams last night. They were also very vivid and felt so real; beyond what I can describe here. A ton of detail is left out.

At first, I was on a ledge somewhere dark. In the dream we were in space but there was air and gravity. More like it was the ledge, wall behind me and a dark void. We were slightly recessed so I had a little, 6 or 7 inch high wall I remember pressing my feet hard into with my back against this wall. I was nervous and I could hear somebody in the distance saying something our way.

I was with to women about my age and I shared some ice cream with them and we tried to distract ourselves. It was us, that voice and dark. I don't remember what all we talked about. I broke apart a red parcel of some sort and told the one next to me something to the tune of now, half is hers.

Later, I was outside at my parents house with this pet dog I once had while he was still alive. He couldn't get enough of my attention but I was trying to work on something on the house.

After that, I was in a college dorm sitting next to this guy I found attractive when suddenly he reaches around my back and grabs my right hand and just holds it. Literally, at that part, I woke up. Fell back asleep, was in that same dorm room but this time, I simply went outside, walked around the city during afternoon and there was some lady I never saw but could hear protesting something.

I went back to the room, looked at my watch and it read 7:12am and I exlaimed "oh shit", then went into another dream wherein I woke up from that one, started getting ready for work, went back to bed with my work clothes in hand then I woke up for real and saw I had a good 40 minutes to get ready for work. Then my boss called and said I can have the day off; store's over-staffed.

I wonder what to make of it.

Dreams are just your head defragmenting, compressing old files, purging buffers, essential maintainance. My dreams are very weird indeed, I've never wanted to write them down like this.
What to make of it? That everything upstairs is in good working order, simple as that.

All segments of the dream, I can immediately recall specific incidents in my life that were very similar. The ledge dream reminds me of this time in 2009 when I was sitting on the roof of a friends house. It was at night and I was nervous as hell but I also didn't want to go anywhere because I just loved being around him so much. We were sharing a joint together.

When I eventually woke up, I knew the feeling I had would be a rare one and I hope to have it again.

Just like with that one, the other two draw complete parallels to moments in my life during which I was uncomfortable, maybe even scared and yet, said moments qualified as some of the best of my life.

Something strange in my dreams is the fact that whenever they feature my house, it's always either one of 5 different ones. Neither of them resemble my real house or any house I have actually been in. They are in different areas where I live and the size varies, one has a crazy amount of rooms. But the detail in those 5 houses remain the same whenever they show up in a dream. I often wonder from where my mind is getting the info to generate them so perfectly. And for the most part, In the dreams I only live in that one house (1 of the 5). But in a few I am aware that I actually live in another, and one time I had a dream, where during the course of the dream, I wondered why I haven't been to another house for a long time. So I drove to it and spent the rest of the dream cleaning the house and sorting through a big pile of mail that aculated on a kitchen table.

My dreams are vary detailed but I usually forget them when I wake up. The things that the mind can create always fascinate me.
