Dreams anyone?

[Lucius Baxter]

Hullo, Does anyone have curious dreams? Can anyone hear your screams? Do they come to you in the night or in the day?  Do you wake up in a bad way?
Are you so filled with dread that you wake up on the other side of the bed?

For instance, last night I had a dream that I could play the BBC Sherlock theme without a hitch on my violin... ah well.

Like I said in the appropriate OOC thread, I recently had a dream that one of the forum RP's was real, only Bailey was a woman

I envy people who remember their dreams. I can never remember mine, or even having them at all. To me, it seems like I put my head down to sleep, and suddenly I'm waking up and a few hours have passed. There's nothing in between; it's almost like I don't dream at all.

Although, back when I was married I scared the heck out of my wife a couple of times by growling in my sleep. Bothered her badly enough the first time that she spent the rest of the night on the couch.

I had an extremely vivid dream,a few weeks ago,in which I was a fantasy creature.....

I'm the same.  I used to dream a lot as a child and then at some point it just stopped.  I have always been a bit of a daydreamer though so maybe I just do it all while I am awake   I can sometimes lucid dream too if I have a lie in after I wake up and go almost back to sleep.  Always make me think of the quote by Lawrence of Arabia:

“All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible.”

Wow I thought some of my dreams were odd. I don't tend to remember too many of them, but one I can vividly remember inovlef me trying to assassinate the then French president, in a none too subtle way.

hi five to a fellow fiddler.

anyway as a musician and writer i get most of my best ideas from dreams. last night for example i had a dream in which i was playing an original blues number on the electric bass. unfortunately as  i was sleeping at my ladies house i had to leave a voicemail on my own phone of me humming it whilst i was still in that state to remember it.

I started mastering lucid dreaming in order to enter my wife's dreams and fight the demons that attack her every night. She remembers her dreams every night. They are awful.

I lucid dream too but I haven't been able to get into someone else's dreams yet.
I hope you manage to fight those demons.

I used to have nightmares, but then I also mastered Lucid Dreaming and projected them away to Lady Cubinoid. I sleep much better now.

     I often have extremely violent and terrifying dreams, usually with the violence directed at me or occasionally someone else that I care about. I tend to wake up from these very abruptly, still in a state of shock and confusion. Sometimes I realize I'm in a dream and try to wake myself up, only to transition from one nightmare to another.

[SeVeNeVeS]

I have vivid dreams every night, some of which I remember, some I dont. Now and then, not so often these days, I get the night terrors, waking in a sweat sodden bed with that feeling of, ummmm, terror 

A few weeks ago I had a strange one and a first even for me.

All I can remember is being in a deeeeep well and below me was a satanic, horned beast in the far distance below rushing up the tunnel toward me. As he reached me, an incredible force, powerful shockwave hit my body and the only way I can describe it was a full body, head to toe (not sexual) orgasm. I woke at that moment and was still experiencing the feeling, after what seemed like a minute, the only word I could mutter was FFF****CCCKKKK!!

The strangest, yet most pleasurable tingle I have ever had, If I could bottle that I would make a fortune.

OK, bring in the men in white coats to take me away now

Hmmm... this is very interesting. Notice all the people from Britain. That in itself is VERY interesting.

[citizen_erased]

Every now and then I remember dreams, sometimes I even remember them for years on end.

One very odd dream from last year included me being in the top of a big, convention hall like building. I got there through a big hall with small gardens separated by big black plastic curtains. I had to step over small rocks to get to the door, and when I got there there was a really beautiful building but I had to go down to the exit because something was happening. At one level there were MP`s coming towards the doors (of which I was at the other side), in full armour and everything (with their shields raised and in organised step, like an army of sorts), so I ran further down the stairs (I couldn`t use the elevators because there were flames and smoke coming from them), and then I went into the basement, but all the lights were off there and there was barbed wire and there were lights from police helicopters shining in from the window, and when I went down into the barbed wire-part suddenly a face filled with blood and barbed wire came from out of the barbed wire so I was shocked and turned around, and by then the police was coming down as well with guns and flashlights and lots of screaming, because apparantly a group of rebels was down there, and the lady officer leading the police force was all "you have to leave NOW".

The end of that dream was really weird though: it turned out the elevators weren`t on fire, but some teenage girls were smoking marihuana in there. And near the exit was a fireplace, where some male Japanese tv hosts were waiting in pink dresses and wanted to interview me. And then the dream just stopped.

Fun fact: my mom thought this dream was about the different levels of heaven.... I have no clue where on earth she got that idea from.

I also once dreamt there was a zombie apocalypse, and me and some friends were in a big warehouse that consisted of a lot of smaller rooms, and we were wearing these really cool outfits. We were all in different parts of the building though, but we kept in touch through those portable radio phone things, and I was shoving sofa`s in front of doors and was generally just being really creative in thinking up ways to stop the zombies so I could run away, and I was leading our group and organising the entire escape attempt.

I actually dream about zombie attacks quite often...... I don`t mind, those dreams are often really epic and awesome. (Once I was stuck in a type of small supermarket, and on one side there was a zombie attack, and on the other side were these 60`s style gangster youths with their leather jackets and cans of beer and hair slicked back, and we had to avoid both sides because both the zombies and the gangster youths were Evil)

Sometimes I have really weird and childish dreams though, with scenes that could literally be from a cartoon. Oh well.

[Drew P]

There used to be a thread for this started a wee little time ago...or did I dream that?

[Tito Alba]

No sooner have I written this post saying I don't remember my dreams than I wake up remembering a dream.  It was pretty mundane though.  I seemed to have spent most of my time in some sort rock pub crossed with a shop where I was rooting around for exact change for a few items of groceries including some stuyvesant ciigarettes for someone else (who has never even smoked in real life).  They didn't have in packets but only had a single loose one left.  When I found the exact change the lady at the bar/counter had finished her shift and told me to give it to the other member of staff.  Any budding Freuds out there want to tell me what that is supposed to mean?

Seems to be a theme of my dreams when I do recall them: pretty ordinary at the time but when I wake up and start to question what actually happened there is usually details that doesn't make any sense.

I remember once when I was at school dreaming a full day that never happened and then packing my bag for the day after and turning up with all the wrong books

[Corroded Alloy]

I used to dream sometimes that I woke up in the morning, got up (for me this is the hardest part of the day) and did a mornings work only to wake up for real and have to do it all again. It's enough to put one in a bad mood all day.

Last night I watched day of the triffids and then I dreamed that I had a small field and it was densely packed with these strange plants. They were all about 7 feet tall. On closer inspection they turned out to be broccoli that had gone to seed.

[Lady Toadflinger]

OH, NO!!!!! Not Broccoli!!!!!! That would be a nightmare for me. I HATE Broccoli! EEEEWWWW.
Actually this post is about a dream one of my daughters had after we visited the Jelly Belly (jelly beans) factory.  She had jelly bellies flying at her and biting her with very sharp teeth... Hmmmm. Perhaps this is due to the fact that we bought some "belly flops" (large bags of mixed beans that are poorly shaped or colored-cheap!), and were flinging the icky flavors out of the car window...

I remember reading somewhere that if you want to remember your dreams to take B Vitamins(B-6 specifically), but perhaps you don't want to remember them. I, myself, frequently have lucid dreams and do tend to remember them. Although I also have narcolepsy, which I find to be more of an inconvenience than a real problem.

[Jedediah Solomon]

Ever have the feeling that you have experienced the same de-ja-vu some other time? I have,,... in a dream.

[Lucius Baxter]

Oh course Mr. Solomon... all the time. Also, Miss Citizen, I had a dream about a zombie apocalypse- Horrible! There wasaoliceman with an Autorifle and he got ripped up something awful. But a few days ago I drempt that I was in Debenhams following Inspector Morse around and I lost TWO of my hats under benches.... 

[von Corax]

A few nights ago I dreamt I was fishing down between the window sash and the outer frame for a piece that had come off, and I stumbled onto the room between the walls where the builders were storing their supplies…
