Implements, Tools, & Other Such Devices

I was sitting in a beautiful loft apartment of someone I do know in person but shall remain nameless. In reality, this is not how his apartment looks like…just work with me. I'm not quite sure what I was doing there but we were enjoying a nice conversation. He handed me an envelope, which I proceeded to open. It was a beautifully hand-written letter from him. The contents of the note were irrelevant but he did make it a point to mention that he wrote the letter using a particular implement that was no longer available for purchase. I laughed, wondering what the point of that comment was. He did tell me the name of the website where he ordered said implement. So, at one point during my visit when he left the room, I checked out the site.

What I saw on the site definitely did to look like traditional pens, pencils, and other writing tools. They looked primitive, yet polished in some way. At first glance, I thought they were little figurines or knick knacks. They were interesting but definitely not worth replacing a good old-fashioned pen with.

He came back into the room and saw that I was looking at the site and started to tease me. I think he thought I didn't believe him when he said his particular writing tool was no longer available. I ignored him. He then he proceeded to pull out what he had used to write the letter. He bought two of them. He held them in from of his face, singing and dancing something ridiculous. All I could do was laugh as I walked away from him. But he continued while following me around.

I couldn't get away from him, laughing like an idiot. I some how found myself standing in front of his bed and I wondered if he planned it all to end this way or if some strange subconscious thought, within my dream, had crept into my mind, wanting something to happen between us. Nothing happened…or rather I forced myself to wake up before anything did happen.

Although I don't have as much detail about this dream as some of my other ones, it certainly has stuck with me. Thinking about this now, I can't even imaging why this scenario made its way into my dream. This person is someone that I have worked with on a couple of occasions and I have never thought of him in any sexual way so this dream was definitely a bit strange.
