Janice (jamasc) Interesting cat dreams!

I dreamt that I came home in the rain. When I got to my apartment, the sidewalks were dry out in the open, and wet under the canopy. When I opened the door to my apartment, the sink was overflowing with dishes and piles of laundry were waiting to be cleaned. I was appalled.

I started cleaning. I took my clothes down to a nearby laundramat. While I was there, my childhood friend asked me to watch her dog, Neetzie. (In real life, I remember going to visit her and hating her yappy chihuahua.) I was happy to say that I was too busy.

While I was doing the laundry, I realized that I didn't need to come to the laundramat since I had a washer and dryer in my suite.

Janice (jamasc) I suppose that labelling your belly button could be useful in case someone is in doubt about what it is. No?

Most of my dream is too odd to recount but it involved me pouring water slowly and carefully into a birdbath-type thing, in which a tiny woman swam; a woman I was with needed to go catch a helicopter at 1:55 p.m., the helicopter would be taking off at 2:06 p.m.; and after it had left, I went back to the building I'd come from and was joined by a man who was operating a spaceship with a remote control. We stood at a window and watched as the Starship Enterprise hove into view. We could see Spock at the controls. I had to pee but the only toilet was out in the open in a room, and two young enlisted military men in their casual clothes were coming and going. I peed anyway, as discreetly as possible.

Emily E (emily_e1) | 1032 comments I can't quite remember the beginning but I know there was some rain in the night. The next day the sun was shining and when I went outside our roof had been badly damaged. There were big gaping holes and ragged edges. Everyone seemed really calm about it except for me, I had to keep explaining it had to be fixed straight away in case it rained again.

Composer Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1958) wanted to hire me to do some job for him. I'm not sure what, but I was happy to do it. I spoke to him on the phone.

Wow, wild. I wonder why they were Muslim.


aPriL does feral sometimes  (cheshirescratch) I particular found interesting the 'when I kill' part. Looking forward to your posting more dreams.

I've never killed anyone or been killed.


aPriL does feral sometimes  (cheshirescratch) I've killed people in my dreams and have been killed. When I do it, it's usually accidental but JUSTIFIED! When I get killed, I feel like I'm having a heart attack and wake up very very very alert.

If we're talking real life, that's a different story. And I'm sure I will kill again.

But will you shoot a man in Reno just to watch him die?


message 1018: by Janice (new)

Janice (jamasc) I've had two dreams where I died. One, I was shot in the back in the parking lot of my high school. I learned that I was to be a guardian angel of a troubled girl with long dark hair. In the other, I drowned.

I don't think I've ever dreamed that I killed somebody.

I feel like that's a reference to something, but I have no idea what.

In my sister in law's house, I came across a horse smoking a pipe. Not a regular looking pipe, not a crackpipe, not a corncob pipe, although it did look vaguely homemade.

Mark Burns (TheFailedPhilosopher) | 441 comments I know I've never posted here before and that other peoples dreams are the next most boring thing after other peoples children when you don't have any but I had a dream a while back. Here are the few things I knew while in the dream or rather not as you'll know soon. 1)I was not me and none of the other people were anyone I knew, 2) I seemed to be Russian but we weren't in Russia but one of the ex-soviet countries, 3)This was the future and/or an alternate reality, 4) I was a scientist on my way to looking at something called the 'Babylon Codex' which was effectively a giant keyboard over seen by humanoid duplicates of living or dead people, 5) The machine behind the keys was a self-sustained AI and it was trying to rediscover an ancient and once universal language, 6)this included non verbal communication hence the duplicates, 7) Everything was white, 8) My scientist recognized one of the 'Duplicates' as a recently deceased ex although I had no inkling of who they were, and finally, 9) Something was going to go wrong with the machines AI. I woke up from this my one and only remembered dream with nothing but that last sense of foreboding and that odd machines smile imprinted in my brain. I still haven't dreamt again and certainly not of that. It was singularly odd.


message 1026: by Jammies (new)

Jammies That is very odd, Mark. And it's the only dream you've ever remembered in your life?

Mark Burns (TheFailedPhilosopher) | 441 comments There may have been one were I was on a trike which threw me off a curb at which point I started to fly but I was understandably quite a lot younger then.

Félix (habitseven) Now you're just making that up.

Mark Burns (TheFailedPhilosopher) | 441 comments You're right, I have absolutely no idea about the trike one.

Mark, you didn't happen to attend the Dublin International Piano Competition, did you?

Just curious. I noticed you are from Dublin. I listened to a couple of the live streams to see how good the pianists were.

I lived on the end of a row of rowhouses. A few doors down was the house where Etan Patz and his family had lived. It was being completely renovated or demolished, or something, and there was a big pile of debris in the back yard. On top of the pile was Etan's old toy from childhood, a sort of combination trike/wagon made of wood, painted, with handlebars and wheels. I thought that if we examined it for forensic evidence, and also dug through the pile of debris, maybe we could solve his disappearance.

My professor was sitting at a table. I went up to him to ask what was going to be on the exam. He went away and came back a few minutes later with a black sheet of paper (white type) that described the exam, the topic of which was Leo Strauss (the political philosopher). I thought I was kind of screwed, because I hadn't been to any of the classes.

Scout (goodreadscomscout) | 3594 comments A couple of nights ago, I dreamt that I smelled smoke. So real that I jumped out of bed and checked out all rooms in the house. Thankfully, no fire - but I couldn't go back to sleep.

I was trying to get to my brother's house, but I had no idea what town or city I was in. I was in a train station. A station agent told me the last train out for the night had just left. I wandered into an auditorium connected to the station, where a young Jewish guy (late 20s or early 30s) was about to give a talk. He turned out to be an associate justice on the Supreme Court. Another woman and I were sitting right under his nose, and she kept taking his notes away from him, and he kept reaching back to get them.

I was spending the night in a large, multilevel rich person’s house. I went up the staircase to bed. George Clooney was at the top. He bent some railings to allow me to step over them. The homeowner had put decorative centerpieces everywhere, containing candles, candy, and tchotchkes. I told George that if I got hungry during the night I would just get up and eat some candy from the centerpieces.

message 1040: by Cynthia (new)

Cynthia Paschen | 7333 comments I've had a series of dreams in recent years where I discover a room in my house.

This week I dreamed my two daughters were moving back home and we discovered two bedrooms and a sitting room that they hadn't used in about 18 years. We were trying to decided how to redecorate them. Daughter #2's old room was papered in a loud orange floral and a loud orange geometric print. She insisted she liked it.

The sitting room was furnished in gold and orange upholstered antiques, and had a small kitchen off to one side.

I don't know if I've ever seen a multilevel rich person.

Some people I knew were starting a clothing line, designing extremely simple clothes that could be constructed quickly. For example, dresses made of two rectangles sewn front to back. I said, "I guess Topshop will carry these, and maybe....Macy's." (I couldn't think of any more clothing stores at that point.) Jennifer Aniston was standing around, sort of half paying attention to our discussions of clothes.

My neighbor was using my oven to cook three large pizzas. She set off my smoke alarm.
