Last Wednesday night I dreamed strangely of a trip to France. Flann O'Brien was in France. So was a town called 'BOLTON'. I had to get there. I was in a circular railway station much like, for instance, Leicester Square tube station.

Then I learned that I had to go to Ireland. It was unavoidable. But I was sad because I thought that Irish people I know were coming over here, and I would not see them.

I woke up before I went, or did not go.

The other night I dreamed that I was in some kind of Big-Brother / game show type situation. I was the last one to be left in a cellar, to await the arrival of a visitor. It turned out to be Charltonlido. He told me that he was writing a thesis on luxury and leisure in America, possibly in the interwar period. I pointed him to a book on the subject, which was just behind him, for we were now in what was once my local branch of WH Smith. He said he would not be buying it at the price of £19.95.

Then I was out on the high street, yes, that old high street, with Amanda Wright. It was terribly windy. She was after chips, I think.

Last night I dreamed that I was at a house with a garden, at some kind of party. I knew the hostess. She talked of the book she was working on. It was about... o, I cannot quite remember. Feminism and something else. She was due to finish it by August. But she had been working on it for 4 years or so.

She said other things, some I can't remember, some I can't repeat.

Recently on Nickalicious dreams...

(from last Friday night)
I was leaving a vague someone's apartment, I knew it was very late at night, almost sunrise, and my son was with me, and he was still awake. I realized we needed to get home immediately, so we leave. As I drive towards our house through the 'hood, I have to maneuver through strange gangs of children who are throwing fireworks or explosives or something. The whole thing is very vaguely sinister; after all, it is right before sun-up. Then something explodes near my car and Luk4s and I get out and walk. As we're walking an IRL acquaintance (whom I at one point or another have had a massive crush on) appears out of the strange throng gathered at my door, but no real involvement in the dream-plot yet. Anyway, my house is full of cops who show me all these strange drugs they've found in my house, drugs that I definitely AM NOT down with: heroin, crack, meth, etc. Then they handcuff me and drag me away from Luk4s, who is yelling "DADDY! DADDY!". As I'm dragged out the door, away from my son, random crush/acquaintance watches, points, and laughs.

Oh that's a harsh one.

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Wednesday, 19 November 2003 14:39 (twenty years ago) link

I know! And then I had to see her that night! It made me feel really weird.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Wednesday, 19 November 2003 14:40 (twenty years ago) link

No ILXors involved but I had a freaky nuclear war nightmare last night, the first in years upon years. Most upsetting.

I dreamt that Nate Patrin and Jody Beth Rosen were sent out to assassinate me.

I'm touched.

yeah, let's plz keep in mind that ILX dreams = dreams with ilxors in them not just any old dream

― fiddo centington (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 19 November 2003 17:20 (twenty years ago) link

a dream which "i" am not in is being dreamt by another who may indeed not be ilxor

Last night I dreamed Fiddo was a dream Nazi and told what I could or couldn't dreamed about and I cried. He had a cigar.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 19 November 2003 17:24 (twenty years ago) link

sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, ned.

Last ngith I dreamt that there was a shortage of train carriages and in order to combat this Great Western had started attaching rails and wheels to the undersides of peoples' houses (this involved plucking the houses and their gardens out of the ground, cartoon-style) and then using them as carriages and they were using my house and all these people were coming into my house in order to get to work and my house was stuck with another train carriage in front and a house behind, I think it might have been a house from Teignmouth and then I fell asleep in my dream and woke up and my family and I were having a meal at a restaurant and it was rubbish and ym gran was there and she kept putting salt on my meal, which was rubbish, so I threw the plate at her head and then my actual real alarm went off and I woke up and nearly cried because I was confused because it was a weird fucking dream.

What, Jon Spencer isn't an ILXor?

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Wednesday, 19 November 2003 17:58 (twenty years ago) link

That would be awesome.

After watching a French short film consisting of two teenage lesbians eating chocolate and strawberries I realized the inherent Republicanness of Dr. Zhivago.

Last night, I had a nightmare that I was fucking up the electric slide for a clubful of black people. I just couldn't get into the right rhythm!

I dreamed I bumped into Mary and Gareth outside of Mary's apartment. Mary was dressed as a #2 pencil and Gareth was dressed as an enormous egg. They told me they'd just been sitting around the apartment bored when they decided to have a parade. I wanted to join them but I didn't have anything good to wear.

― Arthur (Arthur), Wednesday, 19 November 2003 20:04 (twenty years ago) link

Are you sure this didn't actually happen?

― El Diablo Robotico (Nicole), Wednesday, 19 November 2003 20:05 (twenty years ago) link

I'm glad people aren't sticking to jess's 'rule', as some of us like hearing about people's dreams regardless of the are ilx-related or not.

― oops (Oops), Wednesday, 19 November 2003 20:09 (twenty years ago) link

There are other threads for that though...

― El Diablo Robotico (Nicole), Wednesday, 19 November 2003 20:10 (twenty years ago) link

There are other threads for complaining about stupid stuff too.

― NA (Nick A.), Wednesday, 19 November 2003 20:14 (twenty years ago) link

this is the dream thread and it's all about dreams
i dreamt i dreamt

I dreamt that I was walking to the gym naked, and contemplating that, while this was something I did on a regular basis, perhaps I should put a stop to it, for reasons of modesty.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 19 November 2003 20:28 (twenty years ago) link

It was quite an epiphany.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 19 November 2003 20:29 (twenty years ago) link

Arthur that was great. I am imagining it as soundtracked by Francois de Roubaix. (I wonder why I was a pencil?)

― Mary (Mary), Thursday, 20 November 2003 05:56 (twenty years ago) link

i think it should surely be soundtracked by the raudelunas marching vegetable band. it kind of reminds me of the university of alabamas homecoming parade in tuscaloosa, 1973 (i have a pic somewhere)

― charltonlido (gareth), Thursday, 20 November 2003 07:33 (twenty years ago) link

Lido, did you decide to buy that book on US interwar leisure in the end?

― the pinefox, Thursday, 20 November 2003 13:17 (twenty years ago) link

which book is that?

― charltonlido (gareth), Thursday, 20 November 2003 18:41 (twenty years ago) link

The one in my dream upthread.

a few weeks ago i dreamed jess harvell got a livejournal and his first post featured a cartoon robot with wings and the accompanying text: "The Leader is back!!! and i am more powerful than ever!!! ilx is a bunch of gaywads!!!" this changed into a dream that carrie brownstein beat me up. i have a lot of dreams about members of sleater-kinney being mean to me, what does it mean?

― The Lady Ms Lurex (lucylurex), Thursday, 20 November 2003 20:47 (twenty years ago) link

It means they're jealous of you.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 20 November 2003 20:51 (twenty years ago) link

hahahahahaha THEY'RE jealous of ME oh yeah thats it.

― The Lady Ms Lurex (lucylurex), Thursday, 20 November 2003 20:54 (twenty years ago) link

Yay strange ideas!

This is a not altogether unrealistic idea, but strongo would never use the word "gaywads".

not at £20 pinefox, no way

Last night I had a strange but sort of good dream about being in a strangely lit attic room with lots of twentysomethings. It was like a cross between a party and a seance. Alix was outside on the balcony with joss sticks, but that's not the weird part. As I approached the balcony door to talk to her, I saw a guy in white with his back to me. I stopped dead, and just studied him for a while. As I moved closer, I looked over his shoulder and saw he was holding a cuddly toy. That man, ladies and gentlemen, was Jess Harvell.

For some reason I dreamt of going skiing with Samantha last night at her cabin in the mountains.

― Ed (dali), Saturday, 22 November 2003 12:20 (twenty years ago) link

I dreamt lots about falling out of high buildings, so on, then Tracer Hand was driving me along in an old station wagon by the sea, too quickly, then the sea started coming up over the road, at first it was fun but then it came into the car, in big waves, the car got sucked into the sea but I was thrown out and was trying to get up the bank by the sea, but the sand kept crumbling back into the waves

okay, so the other night i had a dream that jay-z was sitting on a stoop in manhattan with me and bnw and playing us his new album and commenting on it. we were both bored but trying very hard to look interested. (i think he was onto us.) then we all went back to my mother's house in the country (there was a riot in nyc) and there was an ilx murder mystery, with zombies. latet in the dream, minna was my waitress, and we were passing secret notes back and forth to each other giving me advice. i didn't take her advice because i ended up making out with and fucking [DELETED] in hallway, despite the fact that i was still dating nancy.

― fiddo centington (dubplatestyle), Sunday, 30 November 2003 02:01 (twenty years ago) link

a sexy, scary dream with zombies and jay-z. that's just about perfect really.

i was on a tour bus riding through brooklyn with some ilxors and some other people -- in the dream brooklyn was completely new to me and i only had a vague idea of my bearings. the bus stopped in brighton beach and geeta and i went into a drugstore to buy soda. but i took too long to pick mine out and the bus left without us. we weren't sure how to catch up with the group, so we decided to make our way to the port authority to get a bus back home ("home" in the dream was not NYC). it was a holiday weekend and subway service was pathetically slow. thousands of people were trying to pour into this one station and it was so crowded and hot i thought i was going to faint. geeta was really mad at me.
