18. Not a nightmare but kind of strange

I've been having dreams where I realize that I'd forgotten something like a cell phone or laptop and have to go back and get it. However I'm always being delayed or sidetracked by completely irrelevant events and can never make it back. In my dream I know I have to get it or I'm not going to be able to do something so in my mind it's really important to get it quickly but I never make it back.

Even stranger this has been one of those dreams where if I wake up during the dream I'll get right back into it as soon as I'm asleep again.
