Dreams.

[Keiichi]

Come here to share any recent dreams you have had, or just crazy ones you can remember.

I had a dream last night where I could create things by writing it down. It was a pretty cool dream.

now lets start analyze your dream...

Ick, used to have pretty bad nights in my earlier years. Weird frightening environments where nothing was trustable, and I always ended up dying in gruesome fashions, as being eviscerated through the back by wraith-like wailing monstrosities while still being "alive" enough to feel pain. Not made any better by having no real safe point when waking in cold sweat either, ending up trying to stay awake as long as possible before unevitably being pulled back into yet another nightmare.

That tendency ended long ago, luckily enough, but I still dont even try to remember most of what I dream anymore, seeing how I know its just pointlessly surrealistic when least horrifying.

At least I got to be a a genetically enchanced test monkey clumsily trying to escape a secret government laboratory in chaos from a released zombie virus once, bashing down security guards with unnatural strength as I went, and clumsily picking up and shooting down their friends with their own firearms. That dream ended when I escaped the facility and charged a helicopter taking scientists to safety, and as the guards on the helicopter opened automatic fire on me, the burning pain didnt matter as much as the rapidly blurring vision and numbing thoughts replacing my own. Acting on pure frenzied instics, instead of using the human-like intellect I expressed earlier, only further supporting the retrospective view on what was going on in the lab earlier. I was after all a test subject for the virus which ravaged the lab and allowed my escape at all. Wasnt as much horror as surprise to find that I wasnt quite human to begin with in that dream.

Sounds like a B zombie movie.

I dreamed that this girl in my church was working at the clothing store I work at during the day.  She also only had one arm in the dream.  I remember concluding that her other arm, which I knew I had seen in the past, must have been prosthetic.

In reality, she still has two arms. And she doesn't work there.

That was a weird dream.

I drown a lot in my dreams, but realize I'm dreaming, and just go with it. Most of my dreams are at least semi-lucid. While others I am fully aware I am dreaming and have control over my actions. Last one of those was about a month ago, so they are not too frequent. Most the time I simply know I am dreaming, not sure why in some I have free reign to do what I want.

One of my more memorable dreams was where I died in a subway accident and my body was full of jagged shards of glass. I didn't feel any pain (at least not from the glass) and despite being dead still moved around.

I woke up when I was trying to think of a useful way to exploit my newfound glass embedded immortality

Butterflies and rainbows.

In my dreams, I usually have at least partial control of myself, and often complete. All my dreams are extremely detailed and fairly realistic, but with some things that just don't make sense. Like a 1950s convertible that's a boat. Or half-mile-high machinery in the middle of a desert that is just a huge conveyor belt for rocks. Or going to work and coming back that evening to find that I'm married, have a two-year old son, and my wife is pregnant, as well as my house being completely remodeled. (Now THAT was a weird dream.) It's also interesting because in my dreams, I can often pull weapons out of nowhere. However, what's strange is that often, the guns are empty or near-empty, so I just toss them aside and pull out another one. However, most of my dreams are fairly complex, as well, so it's hard to just summarize them.

Take zinc tablets before going to bed. You should then experience heightened dream states. I do. So should you

My dreams are either mundane or bizarre.  I'm quite happy not to remember them.  For me, sleep is just this brief lapse in memory.  I'm lying in bed at night, relaxing.  Next thing I know, it's morning.  I like it that way.

How wonderful of a topic, especially after recent events in my sleep-life

I recently had my first ever double-layered dream. As in, I dreamed I woke up from sleeping, but really didn't and it was just another dream. I had thought that this was impossible, something that only happened in cheesy horror-movies and episodes of Doug but apparently not.

I dreamed I boarded a school bus, and the driver had clown facepaint on. The bus was occupied by old, hobo-looking wino people. I sat down without talking to anyone, and the bus drove down the highway.

As I was riding I picked up a newspaper from a seat next to me and read the headline, telling of a fatal bus crash.

I immediately knew that it was the bus I was on, and it was about to crash. It suddenly struck me that the driver with the clownface was really some kind of supernatural entity (probably an incarnation of death, though I didn't have that thought in the dream).

Instead of being scared or upset I was sad for the driver, that he'd have to kill us. I went up to the front and told him "It's okay, I don't blame you. Nobody blames you". After this the driver started to cry, and I kinda cradled his head in my arms and he kept driving, and eventually we reached my house again and he let me off.

And it seemed to me that by reaching out to the driver, who had before only been hated for his role of causing fatal accidents, I had changed the fate of the bus.

I went upstairs and slept, and then dreamed that my friend Harrison came into my room and woke me up (not an unusual thing to happen, he lets himself in my house whenever he feel like it and usually sleep late). He told me that we should get something to eat and we went downstairs.

Standing by my backdoor was my Grandmother's neighbor Ed, who I hardly know. He was looking out through the glass into my yard. I didn't talk to him, but just got out a pot to boil some rice.


And then I woke up for real when my alarm clock went off.

I had this dream where I was in a cartoon version of a cereal factory full of Trix cereal.  And some people came in, a scientist and two kids.  Then they went away.  Then I saw the Trix bunny up in the rafters.  He swung down on  a rope and grabbed a box of cereal.  Then he started eating it, and the scientist and the kids started for him in slow motion, making that screaming "No!" motion that you might see in a bad action movie.

Needless to say, it is a weird dream.

I once dreamed I was something like a killer or a mercenary.
My weapon of choice?
Liquid nitrogen

I froze my enemies, and then they'd bread into little pieces.

It was a very interesting dream.

I once dreamed that I was running on top of a river. I didn't sink, and velociraptors were running at both sides of me. Jungle hissed loudly and I ran. Then came a waterfall, but I kept running, eventually I began to fly. Then I flied over my school ina a ballistic arch and the last memory was that I had a real close-up to a fir-tree's trunk.
