I'm getting N's sister to teach a workshop on my behalf. I've done this before. She's barely literate. I ask her if she's up to rewriting the details on the promotional material and she's not, so I do it.

I'm in class, one of the last classes of the semester and I've forgotten all my students' names. I ask them to say their names so I can take the roll and they start being really disruptive and rude. I consult with a colleague who's in the class and he says it's because I forgot their names.

I'm driving with N's family down into a valley. It used to be so quiet and secluded here but since they put the new road in there's heavy traffic, even though it's still green, with many large trees. The van is full of students, large boys, kind of hostile to me. At some point I realise no one is driving the van - I'm in the passenger seat. I want one of them to climb over from the back as I'm blocked by luggage - we're still in motion - but they won't so I start to climb over myself. There are a couple of very tall young men walking out of the woods towards the van - they are bullies and I have to turn the van around and get out of there. I seem to pull off this quite extreme driving manoeuvre. There are bullies in the van too though.
