Wow, your dreams sound just as convoluted as mine...lol.
I often dream that I left my wallet or purse somewhere and I can't do anything I want or need to do without it, so I'm sorta stranded in limbo. Then I spend most of my dream trying to get back to wherever I was when I lost it to see if I can find it. Sometimes I'm in a lost and found and there are many purses, but I can't find mine.
Same thing with my car. I can't remember where I parked it or sometimes I don't even know what I drove and I'm just wandering around parking lots & streets looking for it.
I dream about staying in a hotel and acquiring a large bill, then I leave for the weekend and check back in at the beginning of the week and they tell me I forgot to pay my bill.
Sometimes I'm at the hotel and I can't remember what room I'm in. Sometimes I remember the room but I don't have a key. Sometimes its both and I have to go to the lobby and explain to them that I don't have a key to a room that I can't remember the number of...sheesh.
I dream about picking my kids up from daycare. It's late and I'm trying to get there before they close, it's such a horrible feeling, I can't even describe it. I either don't have a car, or I can't remember how to get there, or I can't get there fast enough and I'm just totally freaking out because I can't get to them and feel so helpless and horrified.

The last few nights I've dreamed I was in some sort of race, not a sports kind of race, but a race where you had to accomplish one thing before you could continue on to the next. The first one was a women-themed race with like shopping & crap like that, but there was this temptation part that had all these desserts...lmao. I passed them up because I was more interested in finishing the race.
The one I had last night, you had to figure out where you were supposed to go as you were running the race. We all started out with no idea what direction we were supposed to start, nor where it finished. Some people were following each other and some people were trying to figure it out themselves. The last place I was before I woke up was some Catholic Church we were supposed to pass through on our way to wherever we were supposed to go next. It didn't look like a normal church and it had revolving doors. I remember thinking it was odd that they had us going through this church for part of the race, but I dipped my hand in the holy water, made the sign of the cross and went through the revolving door (I grew up Catholic until Jr. High). When I got inside, there were people sitting in the pews in the middle of mass, but they were not listening or paying attention, so most of the people just watched those who were in the race wander around trying to figure out the next place we were supposed to go to. I said loudly, "This isn't right!" because I felt that it was horribly disrespectful for us to be in there interrupting mass and everybody being so casual and not even caring that it was a place of worship. I decided that I didn't care about the race anymore if this is how it was going to be and I started to leave to go back outside because I didn't think it was right to be in there for that reason and then I woke up.

What does it mean when you dream about nakedness? And being self concious of it in your dream, but trying to play it off like everything's totally normal. But in the meantime, spending most of your dream trying to find something appropriate to wear.
Or not wearing the proper "upper management" underneath my shirt, and everybody can totally tell because that management is necessary to keep everything in line and packed snugly.
I've been reluctant to ask because I didn't want to sound like some freaky pervert.
I also frequently and regularly dream that I am able to fly. Like, I can willfully raise myself from the ground or I have some sort of "seat" that I use, like a snow disc thingy or something like that, that hovers and I can sit in and use to move about. Sometimes I get frustrated in my dream because I can't make myself go as fast as I want to or rise as high as I want/need to. Sometimes no matter how hard I try, I'm just stuck and feel heavy.
Much of the time I am trying to find my way back home, but I can't remember where I live or how to get there.
I am also the only person who can fly in my dreams and everybody wonders how I'm doing it. Sometimes they think I'm a douchebag though, like "Oh, here's the girl who flies everywhere again, even though everybody else walks like normal people."
Oh, and the people in the church in my other dream, didn't really want to be there. They were just in there out of habit, or something like that. They were all talking to each other or playing with their phone, the mass that was taking place was totally ignored.
The circumstances in my dream led me to feel like that particular race was not one I wanted to be running in the first place, that's why I finally spoke up and said that what we were doing was wrong. I felt like that race was way less important than having part of it go through a church in the middle of their worship ceremony. I felt like a total asshole for even being in there for such a stupid reason in the first place. I just wanted to get out, I felt like I had betrayed God for going ahead and following the rest of the people in there instead of listening to the hesitation I felt before deciding to go on through those revolving doors.

I was sitting here yesterday, and I had not come back to this thread, but I felt that what I had said about your dream was not right.
I waited to see what you said to see, because sometimes I will just fear I did wrong even if I didn't. But it's true, I did wrong. I wasn't patient enough.
It's simply that those people should have been thrown out. That was the point. The revolving doors is lukewarmness. But I interpreted the dream against you instead of in your favor. That wasn't right. I should have known better.

So I can tell you without shame that I have these in my favor:
