apt-get's journal

We moved. It's a sort of big mansion with every room being rented to someone different. We had a baby penguin as a pet along with a brown otter. I seemed to prefer the latter until the very end of the dream, for some reason. Another penguin was chasing me too at some point.

I was very scared of dogs in other people's properties and when I intruded into one to ask someone a question, I was always scared of getting chased by a wary dog inside. I then went out and simply asked an old woman if the room numbers were written anywhere on the keys, since I couldn't remember mine as I had just moved. I realized right after this information was written right on them.

Once I entered my house, nobody was present: apparently, my mom went out at a trial because she had been using DMX (which was a drug rather than a rapper in this dream) with a friend at some point, leaving me in the house alone as a kid. The police knew but promised they'd keep it a secret, and the other woman apparently hired a "Japanese lawyer that would understand everything being said in the trial" so he could laugh his ass off at how they avoided the sentence.

Interestingly, I never had any trauma related to being left alone as a kid. It's kind of weird, but anything can happen in a dream, I guess.
