Kerri, that whale dream is hilarious!
I had a dream the other night that there was a random door in the house I was living in and it went straight to heaven. If we opened it, we could call all of the dogs we had growing up and they would come down and see us. I called down one dog we had when I was a kid, her name was Crow (blackie in Japanese), and she was wearing a sweater. I asked where in the heck she got it from as I know we didn't dress her up when we had her? My mom told me that it was some other dog's cousin that made it for her, and of course I was confused. My mom said she doesn't know how it works, but the other dog's cousin is human.
I had another dream that there was an optometrists office across the hall from where I was working (a huge hall that you could drive trucks through), and when I went over there, there was a gigantic killer snake with a human head that was in there and was really difficult to kill.
I've been having a TON of crazy dreams, those are only a couple of them. A large number of them I'm in some random maze like house, looking for a friend or relative, or trying to find a room, etc.
