08d dial dream

In my earlier morning dream, I was going to the TPE airport seeking to pay parking. They took only TWD but I only had USD.
Someone told me to dial 800 for help.
I looked at my (old style dial-only non-smart) phone and saw (the number/text) 08d.
I asked that person what this was, and they said it was for the 800 help line.
I then gradually woke up, feeling leg cramps and tightness.

Depicting the (often very vivid) dreams I have is one way to hone creative processes and measure the advances of related technologies.

This is a dream that I had on May 2 2025 during which I saw my baby niece happily and agilely climbing the kitchen cabinet to get some snacks.

During a dream on Oct 10 2023 morning I saw a guy with a hair that can flip open from the back like a carpet to reveal his scalp.

This is the second dream I had (or remembered) after 4:40 am and I already forgot the first one.
Found myself sweating and heart pumping fast both times.

Chairs-and-tables puzzle dream

I dreamed about this math/algorithm puzzle earlier this morning.

There are N tables and M chairs on an infinite plane for a class, which consists of group discussions and individual works.
During the group discussions, each student can move his/her chair towards a table.
When the discussions are over, each student will need to move his/her chair to an individual table without sharing with other students.
What is the optimal transport for this transition from a given group discussion configuration to an individual work arrangement?

While driving on 101 south-bound at 2021-09-05 17:26:02 and listening to Shostakovich piano concerto 2 in the radio, I imagined being engulfed by sticky black liquid, and reproduced the visual effect afterwards via Adobe Ae.

It felt very fun and liberating to hide inside a recycle bin and ride away with a garbage truck (at least in that dream).

This dream is probably a reflection of my use of eye-protection programs (e.g., eyes guard).
