Dreams

[GSLeloo]

Gonna do a little dream journal type thing... just sort of bored and yeah...

So here was tonights dream!

I was at the mall trying to buy lip gloss. And so... we had to go up to the third floor of the mall. And the escalator was broken going up to the third level and I was scared to fall. Then my father saw an old friend of his who kind of looked like a dog of some sort.

Then I was at my house and instead of one ferret, we had two and the second looked like a kitten. Then my friend was there and she had a new dog and was hiding from her sister. And then... I woke up I think.

I had a weird dream last night that my best friend Kirsty and I went to do a sociological study of children in Iraq and we had to interview that dude Chemical Ali, we were in this big building with all these men in suits shouting at us and the building started shaking, I looked out the window and there were fires and bombs all over, there were kids screaming as they were on fire and Kirsty said to me "I know we're gonna die Vic, but its ok, we're together" and then I woke up, all scared and stuff. Those are the moments I thank God it was just a dream, really freaked me out though.

Let's see... I used to have this dream as a kid that I was in the basement and running up the stairs cause something was chasing me and I'd reach the platform and the door would be chained so it was only open a little bit and I'd be calling for my parents to unchain it and they'd just stand there and ignore me and then.. I'd wake up.

Seems like the only dreams I remember are the sexual ones, where I wake up aroused and I think that is what wakes me up.

[Skirmisher]

Yes, the really good ones (read mostly sexual) and really bad ones are about all that stick with me past the point of awakening.

[Staerin]

Well, if I ever really got much sleep anymore I'd tell you all about my dreams. As it is I can only tell you what movie I was watching while taking my daily naps

[Latrinsorm]

I dreamed about mountains in Philadelphia. Big ones, too, like Rockies-style. I'm pretty sure there aren't any, though. :(

Although I'm much happier dreaming about bizarro geography than kids on fire. :yes:

[Staerin]

Come on now, kids on fire are great to dream about! And I won't hear otherwise.

My dream last night was really odd... really vivid, too.

I don't remember how it started off, but it was set during the mid-1700s in either Scotland or Ireland... or possibly neither. If any of you have ever read "Outlander" by Diana Gabaldon, that's what it was like... in an old stone castle, surrounded by a beautiful countryside of hills and forests.

So there I am, dressed up like a noble's wife would have been, and my husband strolls in. Then it switches to us on a old-style ship, sailing from Ireland/Scotland to England(?).

Once we get to England, we all sit down around a round table that's set up as if we were going to have tea, and talk to a French lady who is dressed like Marie Antoinette.

Myself and another woman at the table excuse ourselves to go look at another woman's baby, and talk about how cute he is. At that point, the wet nurse comes in to feed the baby, so we leave.

We walk to another room that has a *huge* walk-in closet and start looking at gowns, and the lady remarks that they used to belong to my great-aunt Matilda. I look through the gowns, trying to find a few that I like, and once I do, I comment that I probably won't fit into them.

Then my husband arrives, and... I woke up.

I just had a dream that I was on a p lane or something.. and the landing was really really rough and some lady on board had like a heart attack. It was a small plane but when it landed everyone was fine and we carried this lady to a house where her brother was. It was out in the country or something and as soon as we gave her to her brother she like got up and started telling him what to do and seemed fine and perfectly happy. The brother listened and started making her food or something. Anyway... then I go to my friend Jeremy's house that happened to be not far away and... I can't remember the details... but something about his family was a circus family and they had a goat and a tiger...

Anyway... Then I'm in Jeremy's house and his girlfriend comes over and they leave together and everyone is all "I know what THEY'RE going to do" and I sit around and play a video game or something then I hear his mother talking about how she gave him a cocaine habit. Then I got upset and walked to where his mother was and asked why the hell she would do that to her son and she said it was something about teaching him a lesson.

At the end of the dream... the tiger had escaped and we had to get up onto this platform to escape it and the circus leader like broke her neck trying to get up to the platform and she died and one of her little circus servants freaks out then he somehow turns himself into a genie in a bottle and grants her a wish and makes her come to life and she's all HAHAHA I KNEW I COULD GET YOU TO BECOME TEH GENIE!!! and he's all sad/angry then I woke up.

Holy shit my dreams are weird.

[Mint]

I dreamed that I was in my bed but I opened my eyes and I was outside (still in my bed) and a large dog came along and started growling at me. I did the sensible thing and covered my head with the comforter. Then I woke up for real.

Don't usually remember any of my dreams.

Last Sunday I watched Dawn of the Dead so I had zombie dreams for two nights. Last night I watched the original Dawn of the Dead so once again I had more zombie dreams. I just borrowed the Evil Dead series from my brother so I'm sure more scary shit will be in my head over the next few days.

My dreams kick ass. Most of them are me doing something wicked cool and/or me keeping my pimp hand strong.

Tonight I'm totally going to dream about this girl at my grandfather's 80th birthday party. I was there for three hours and just stared at her the entire time.

So hot.

I dreamed I was in a bank and this group of really old overweight ladies (I'm talking blue hairs) were there and they moved as if they were one entity. (was probably 15 of them) They all wore flowered dresses and hats. So... they rob the bank. Then they get on the elevator to make their great escape and for some reason I end up on the first floor when the elevator comes down and they can't get out. It's like they were wedged into the elevator. The dream was sort of funny except that when they moved as one entity... that part was kind of spooky.

I have really strange dreams. That one is actually a very tame one.

Don't laugh, but...

Ever since I was little, like as in 2 or 3, I've had recurring dreams about being chased by dinosaurs and getting stomped to death. Land of the Lost came on when I was older than that, and it kind of freaked me out.. but I had a really tough time with the Jurassic Park movies.

It's always some variant of me running around frantically through thick foliage, getting all scratched and stuff, while this huge dinosaur is in hot pursuit, stomping closer and closer, until splat. I always wake up right after the splat with my heart pounding.

I've got another recurring one where I'm with a group of people that have been kidnapped by aliens -- it's not clear how we got there or what the aliens look like, but we're in different races. One is this weird plexiglas sort of thing, with like the supermarket refrigerator doors and hurdles, and they make us race through them against each other, and the loser keels over dead.

[Skirmisher]

Hrm...yeah i seem to get killed alot in my dreams too.

Aliens were exterminating everyone in one fun dream and i was in one of the last groups running in like sewers and the like. We came to the one exit we thought would get us out of the city and it was already blocked by some sort of energy field the aliens used. We just sort of leaned back as we heard them coming closer knowing there was no hope and then I woke up. The feelings of hopelessness stayed with me for a couple days.

Another time i was having a nightmare about zombies coming into the apt, i had hid and made it to the door when i saw the zombie going up the stairs to where my sister was asleep. I was literally frozen and so i tried to scream to warn her, but not even a scream could get out no matter how hard i tried..

My sister woke me up as then from my nap on the couch because i was making muted noises and kind of thrashing about. Yeesh was my heart pounding.

Been machinegunned, killed by a gorilla, and killed by men on horses with dogs on like a hunt,

Also been the one who killed my aunt by cutting her throat while she was trying to kill my family and robbed a bank while framing my good friend for my misdeeds.
