Three Buildings
Background: Many of my dreams involve labyrinthine buildings, often hosting conventions. These buildings are very changeable, so I can not again find the same areas I'd been through. I am usually trying to find a way out, which is never easy, and once I am out I try finding my car, but can almost never find it.
This morning I woke up at about 3:25am. I was able to get back to sleep fairly quickly, but woke up a couple more time, enabling me to set dreams to memory.
Begin: This building was a large hotel-like structure with elevators and a scattering of people. There were no convention halls, at least not that I saw. I was in a basement area and got into a freight elevator. the outside doors closed, and then I realized I'd left my cart with my belongings in the basement area. I tried to send the elevator back to the basement, but couldn't find a way to do it. The controls weren't well marked, kept changing, and eventually disappeared.
I tried a couple of other elevators, but none would go to the basement.
One was rather odd. I was in it with several other people. It had no
inside doors on either side so you could see the walls and rooms go by.

Begin: This building was more like a mall and there were a lot of people, and possibly a convention, but I didn't actually see one. I was in a pharmacy or medical reception room. There was a counter between the waiting room and the interior. I was waiting to get the attention of the pharmacist (or medical person) but was being totally ignored. Other people came in and were attended to immediately.
I had backed away from the counter and was near the door. The (pharmacist?) came out with a bin full of small objects. He spoke to a person sitting to my left, then went back behind the counter leaving his bin behind on a table. I picked up the bin and threw it across the room, spilling its contents all over the room. I then turned and left.
This building was only a couple stories high and elongated. It was easy for me to find the way out through the lobby at the middle on the higher side of the slope. There were streets all around it. I started looking for my car. I walked all the way around the building but saw no place where it could have been parked.
Then I took a little side trip, a few yards into a small, steep, stream cut
valley with steep sides. It was across the road from the upslope side of
the building. There was a very small building to my right, and in front was
the rocky stream bed, all dried up. A little ways up the stream bed was a
small brown animal, 10 pounds at most, covered with medium brown fur. It had
long sharp claws and sharp teeth, but was very tame. It walked up to me and
let me pet it. I don't know whether this was an animal that exists in the
waking world or not.

Begin: I was in the elevator lobby of a building. There was
a young girl wearing a red and white dress, waiting for an elevator. She was
probably about 6 years old.
