What is with all the car/parking dreams, Sarah?

Huh! Now that is a very good question. That is not something high on my stress list, either.

My sister in law and I were having a conversation in a bedroom. She said, "There's a scene in the Sopranos." (hesitates) "I probably shouldn't tell you."
Me: Is it violent? I don't want to hear it.
Her: No, it's not violent. (pauses) Restaurants are trending toward a separate check for everyone at the table.
Me: That's good. I would like that.
Her: For my kids, they'll finally know how much we're spending on their dinners. [This is funny because her kids are very young.]

[Scout]

Lg, I meant that I couldn't make myself click on that link. Too terrible to think about. I'm a wimp. Separate checks sound good, though.

I only remember a snippet from last night's dream. I found myself swimming in a warm, well-lit pool behind a fine house on a hill.

Last night I dreamt that I was going to give my grandson a helicopter ride to school. He had some special project that would be highlighted by arriving by helicopter. My nephew arrived in his helicopter and took Ty. I followed in mine. When we got to the school, there were pilots with jet propelled ones that were doing stunts like going into a dive at blinding speed and straightening out just above ground.

Bet you'd be the coolest grandmother ever if that dream really happened.

I had a dream where Vladimir Putin was administering some chemistry or physics test. I hadn't studied and had no clue what the answers were and I ardently wished it was multiple choice so at least I could fill in a circle.

[Jim]

Oh, this is not good news, am I in the bookmark shebang? I've been ignoring the shebang threads.

[Jim]

::saunters over to the bookmark thread to see what he is supposed to be doing::

My apologies to everyone if I've messed things up.

[Félix]

Way to go, Jim.

[Jim]

Thanks Larry!

Thanks Barb!

I worked for some female political candidate. I was in a crowded staff meeting receiving my assignments: I was supposed to arrange for these two youngish black girls (18-20) to get drivers’ licenses. I asked why they needed licenses and was told because they were going to be driving the candidate around, which sounded totally fishy and not believable. Al Gore was sitting next to me and as he got up out of his chair, his butt was enormous and it brushed against my shoulder, knocking me a few degrees out of my chair. He was wearing chino/khaki pants.

I had a dream that I was in a museum, with Raskolnikov who was not a tortured murderer, but a tortured artist. This museum had a convex wall in the corner on which Raskolnikov had drawn a mountain in chalk... it was one of those ‘trick your eye’ chalk drawings that appeared to be 3-D. People kept walking by touching it and saying ‘magnificent’. Raskolnikov just sat there tearing his hear out and saying “it’s nothing, I’m nothing, it’s garbage”. Then Hugh Grant showed up and face twisted in anguish said to Roskolnikov “I wish I had the talent that you have in your baby finger alone”. The End.

I had a dream that was a perfect combination of everything I had watched in the hours before (Top Chef, the news, the Daily Show). We were opening a new restaurant, and for opening night we were making people put on blindfolds and eat amuse bouche.
Then Qaddafi showed up, and I knew I had to distract him, so I taught him how to play Tetris on my iPod.

[janine]

what was he wearing?

i keep forgetting my dreams. i know i've had a dream and i know that it was interesting, but i only remember details, like spiders in a toilet.

[Félix]

My dreams have been very vague lately, and not conducive to remembering. They are vivid when are going on, though. After I wake up, I can think of any words that would describe the dream.

[Sarah]

I can't remember. He actually looked more like Putin, but I knew who he was.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

I think I had a dream about Bo Derek's pubic hair but it was kind of vague, so I'm not 100% sure.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

Was she a natural blonde?

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

::ick::

I don't think so.

[janine]

along with a guy, his son, his wife, and a bunch of other people i had to escape from a stadium. the guy and his son were imprisoned there and we were helping them escape so we had to go too. in order to escape i had to bully an overweight girl. she became really angry and when i was climbing over a fence i was sure she caught up with me and would grab my leg. but it was someone else, a woman who told me in which direction to go. i followed her instructions and found the others in a light blue bedazzled ford mustang. i had to sit on two guys' laps because there were so many of us. then we drove off.

i was cooking and when i opened a jar a spider crawled in it. then a tiny little mouse went in and ate the spider. then a mean rat jumped in and i closed the jar. i went out to get it to the trash and the evil rat, having just eaten the mouse, glared at me with his huge black eyes. then the contents of the jar sponaneously combusted. i saw a calf lying on the ground, but in the next moment it had turned into a freakish little boy. he had all kinds of extra body parts lying around him. i asked someone about it and she told me this was a boy born with extra body parts. when he would walk the body parts would float around him. the boy stood up and the body parts floated in the air.

I think if I had a dream like your second one, Janine, I'd be feeling antsy all day.

I dreamt that I was going into people's offices and letting them know that there was water leaking in their rooms, as if they didn't notice it themselves.

"Antsy" *giggle*

janine, that is a scary, scary dream.

[janine]

for me it was actually a pretty tame dream :) more fascinating than scary.

My sister's name is Nancy and I would tease her with Nancy Antsy with the Fancy Pancy.

I had a dream: my abusive ex knocked on the door and opened it then started moving his stuff into my room. I kept telling him he couldn't do this and he told me," I never listened to you before. Why do you think I'll listen to you now?" woke up all sweaty and panicky.

[janine]

realistic dreams like that are the worst.

I was trying to put together a jigsaw puzzle. The puzzle was upside down, so everything was white. I was on sand, and a tide kept coming in and messing up the puzzle. Each time it did I would move further away. When I got as far from the water as I could (ran up against a fireplace hearth), the next wave came in and a body-surfing cat was at the front of it. He splayed across my puzzle.

[Félix]

Cats.

I had the WEIRDEST DREAM.

Okay, so Kevin and I were making ice cream popsicles. I wanted one with Dark chocolate coating, regular chocolate on the inside. So made it, and like, Kevin had these cool funky glasses with wide red rims, or whatever. So I tasted the popsicle, and I was like, "Hmmm, let's get Phil to taste this." So we did, and Phil liked it.

Then, for some reason, I was in Egypt, and I was looking over the cliff of a cave. And like, there was military fighting going on, like shooting and stuff. And this one guy found Saddam Hussein, like living undergound, but he was half naked, sprawled with just a sheet. And then the guy who found him was like, "Wait, didn't we hang you?" And Saddam started reaching for his gun, so the guy just slaughtered him, and then he noticed I was there. I ran away, and some how I Was on this couch, looking at my laptop screen, like that was a dream. But it wasn't, and it was still happening.

So somehow I'm back in Egypt, and I'm running away from people because I saw Suddam get killed "again," and that was like, not something people are supposed to know about. So I'm with a friend, and the loudmouth gets us in trouble with some people in Egypt, and we have to show them were Saddam was killed again, and then they get shot, and we're on the run again.

somehow I make it back to America in this HUGE mall, and I'm running around looking for help, and I see Kevin again, and apparently he has some connections with the CIA or whatever, and I get to fly this like, friendly monster aircraft back to Egypt to whoop some ass. BUT I come into contact this with this planet that's shooting fire moon beams at me, and most of my friendly monster aircraft dies, and that's when I woke up for real.

[Phil]

Britt, can I have another popsicle? :)

That does sound good, doesn't it?

I was dating a woman with whom I used to be friends years ago, although we were never romantically involved in real life. In the dream, we were deeply in love. It was a few weeks into the affair and everything felt intense and perfect.

We took a trip to Innsbruck, Austria, to see the 1976 Winter Olympics. We weren’t the ages that we would have been in 1976 but rather around 25 or 30 years old. One evening at twilight, we were walking along the rooftop terrace of Ambras Castle, only it wasn’t really Ambras Castle but a strange series of interconnected stone towers with steep slate roofs. There were skaters in a courtyard below and a calliope was playing. She held my hand and leaned over the parapet to see, but she slipped and fell onto the roof. I lost my grip on her hand and watched, horrified, as she slid down the roof in the snow. The snow was heavy enough that it seemed to slow her descent a little, and she was able to grab onto the edge of the roof, but at the last moment she fell screaming onto a second roof below, where I could no longer see her. Someone else told me that he could see her, though, and that everything was all right. A man had caught her when she fell.

I raced to the stairs so that I could find out. The stairway was a towering circular staircase made of iron or steel with no landings, just endless steps, like something out of a Piranesi drawing. As I ran down the steps, suddenly my father was there, following me, talking about the luge competition: if Germany defeated Norway in the current round, they would advance to face Denmark, but if Norway won, then the next matchup would be much harder to determine. I told him that I didn’t care. Then I woke up.

[janine]

you clearly have father issues.

[Phil]

Jonathan used both "parapet" and "calliope" in a single paragraph. That's talent.

[Jackie "the Librarian"]

Have you been watching old Hitchcock movies, Jonathan?

[Jonathan]

I think my unconscious mind is mostly old Hitchcock movies, Jackie, with maybe a few episodes of F Troop mixed in for variety.

[Jackie "the Librarian"]

Hee, F Troop!

And sports, don't forget the sports, Jonathan. Clearly, luge is important to your unconscious mind, if not to YOU. :)

[Jim]

As is synchronized swim.

I dreamed that Jonathan was doing research in the Columbia U library. I was there too, working at a slanted wooden desk. Suddenly I remembered I had a flight to catch and I started saying to anyone who would listen, "I've got to get to LaGuardia. I've got to get there right now!" Naturally I didn't know what time my flight was, couldn't find my ticket, wasn't wearing a watch. I found my sister in a basement area. She had just laundered all my clothes, which made me angry, because folding and packing them was going to make me even later to LaGuardia.

[Jonathan]

Having washers and dryers in the basement of the library would be a good idea. Students could do their laundry while roaming the stacks.

[Cynthia]

I wish I had a sister to launder my clothes for me. Is your sister always so helpful, LG?

[Félix]

Is there a bias toward slants?

[Phil]

Racist.

[Jammies]

Larry! Ficus! *points*

[Félix]

I honestly did not mean it that way. I was merely playing with words. Should I delete?

[Jammies]

lol, no, I was about to say "Bigot!" when I refreshed and saw Phil's post. I just figured you needed some beer and Barcalounger time. ;)
