Weather Dreams: A Chance of Squirt and Twinkies
First of all, I am a prolific dreamer. I dream almost every night and my dreams are complicated, crazy, wonderful, sometimes scary and occasionally bizarre.
The other night I had a dream that I was sitting on a bench at UofH when I heard a loud scream. I turned and saw a man holding a baby. He was dripping wet and looking up at the sky. I looked up to see what might have fallen on him and that's when I saw this yellow can heading right toward me! I jumped out of the way and the can hit the ground and exploded, sending a gush of liquid all over the place. Then more cans started to fall. People started running and screaming! That's when I noticed these were cans of Squirt soda falling from the sky. And not the new Squirt; the label had the old yellow and green logo. Then suddenly, Twinkies started falling from the sky...with the Squirt! Someone next to me picked up a Twinkie and started to eat it. He seemed to enjoy it but I noticed the end of the Twinkie was gray and the freshness date was sometime in 2004. That's when I woke up.
What does it mean!??! Post your comments below.


















Ok, so here's my two cents... hmmm... :)
(How did you feel about what was happening?)
UH is a place of Higher Education - to learn something?
A man holding a baby - a baby might represent something new (many times in a Christian's dreams it represents a new ministry or anointing), so this could be a man who's stepping up to the plate, or is caring for or taking responsibility for something new - a new phase in life, a new task, gift, etc?
The man dripping wet (from a can of squirt?) but no mention of him being hurt (Did the man who was hit run away or scream?)- something potentially harmful fell from the sky and got the man wet, but did not hurt him. In your dream you stepped aside because you were afraid when it hit you that you would be hurt, even though the other man and baby had not been. Aparently so was everyone else because they were running and screaming. Good news is... you weren't hurt anyway.
Old Squirt and Old Twinkies (Botulism?)- If they are attacks, they've probably been planned for awhile, probably pretty carefully.
Man eating old Twinkie - People starting to believe in or take part in something that could harm them? The twinkie hitting you on the head wouldn't even phase you, but the old and partially moldy/bacteria filled twinkie willingly ingested can do a lot of damage. It's kind of interesting that the poison was given in such an innocent and appealing form. I'm sure the man would later regret not paying any heed to the facts printed on the label. At least you noticed. :)
Conclusion:
Either
1. You were given a message
or
2. It was a pizza dream and I'm just very imaginative. :)

Wow! Are you sure you weren't eating any Twinkies or drinking Squirt before you went to bed? Or maybe you thought about those before going to bed? It could just be that your mind just started bringing stuff up in the past that you used to eat and drink, and so it all came about in a dream?!

From an online "dream dictionary":
To see a can in your dream indicates that there is something in your past that you need to hold on to and preserve. The dream may also be a pun on how you 'can' do something. Don't underestimate your abilities and talents.
To see a cake in your dream indicates that you need to learn to share and allocate your workload instead of trying to do everything yourself. Cakes also symbolize selfishness or the feeling of not getting your fair share. More positively, the dream may represent your accomplishments and achievements. Consider also the metaphor 'a piece of cake' or some situation that is easy. Also, to see a partially eaten cake in your dream signifies missed and lost opportunities.
Best I could find! :D

But Squirt doesn't even go with Twinkies. The sour and sweet would taste awful!

I think raining Moon Pies and RC Cola would be better.

I'm going to talk to management about some time off for you.
