lately (ok, the past year, really) half of my dreams have been about death. I hope there isn't anything prophetic going on here :-/

i dreamt someone called and left a message for me saying they wanted to offer me a job in minnesota (it was a written message and it said MN). when i returned the call it turned out there was a mistake and the job was in wisconsin so i turned it down. i think it means that in my dreams wisconsin and minnesota are really different.

I dreamt I went to the mall to rent a tuxedo. as I walked by an Italian food kiosk, a short guy in a toque, red-and-white checkered apron, and handlebar mustache approached me & asked if I wanted a free sample of pasagna. "what's pasagna?" I asked. he said it was a brand new combination of pasta and lasagna*. I said yes I would be honored to try your pasagna, but first I have to rent a tux for my sister's wedding. but by the time I got back from the tux shop, the pasagna kiosk was closed & I cursed my rotten luck.

*okay, I know all u pedants are itching to point out how redundant & illogical this is. but this is MY dream so shush.

ohioans are the most disgusting etc.

ravioli lasagna is one of the yummiest Italian meals I've had, but I am a disgusting ¼ Italian New Englander, so don't trust my judgment.

i dreamt that there was a college reunion and i was excited (dunno why, hated college) and showed up and everyone was mean and no one wanted me to go and instead i was watching some page about the reunion get updated online while everyone else enjoyed themselves but all the updates were making fun of me :(

you feel conflicted because your social life is increasingly dependent upon telecommunications media (smoke signals, telegraph, internet, etc.). on the one hand, the constant mediation buffers you from the meanness and pettiness of the real world ― noone can punch you or spit on you over the phone, amirite? but on the other hand you're always one step removed from direct experience ― you can't feel the pleasant spring rain on your face because the internet is feeling it for you in a drizzle of ones and zeroes. you're excited about facing pleasure directly but afraid to face pain directly. in the end, the healthiest choice is to put yourself in the middle of the action ― good or bad ― and work out each issue as it comes. unplug your router, go to that college reunion, and show those jerks how to have a good time!

also you are deeply distraught by the disappearance of peepoop patel.

I dreamed I cut off the left hands of Wanda Jackson and Guy Clark. What I did with their bodies I don't know. Fuzzy details, as usual, recall passively pulling Guy's out of the waste basket and comparing his mitt to mine.

Hmm.

dreamed about running in my hometown. it was really hard. i have dreamed about running on that street before, but always going in the opposite direction. what does my dream mean?

tehresa, Saturday, 10 April 2010 16:56 (fourteen years ago) link

i don't know!

dreamt that a man was being executed by having a mine strapped to him and detonated. This was happening in Cuba. What this means, i suspect: remembering case of anti-treaty prisoners being executed in this fashion in the Irish Civil War + reading in El País about Cuban hunger strikers. Was a really horrible dream :(

I dreamt I was a grizzly bear. my doggy friend had been drafted into the army, so I boarded a passenger train to set out and rescue him. as the train chugged across the plains, I spotted a column of doggy soldiers doing drills in the distance. I begged the engineer to stop the train, but he just ignored me. so I located the train's thermostat and turned the temperature up as high as it would go. pretty soon the train stopped and all the passengers rushed out to escape the heat. I rushed out behind them and (long story short) forcefully freed my friend from the clutches of the doggy army.

i had started to read this thread all over again but it's way too long. i had some great dreams! i like unregistered's, especially this one:

I had a pedicure. The toenail polish was so heavy I could barely walk out of the shop. Was too embarrassed to ask for my money back.

WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS CONFUSING FREAM

156, Friday, 18 June 2010 05:06 (thirteen years ago) link

I haven't had enough cute pedicure dreams lately. this one's kinda cute though:

I dreamt I was one of the judges at a dog show. all the poodles danced and pranced and somersaulted like it was the Cirque du Soleil, so I gave them all a 10 out of 10. all the other dogs foamed at the mouth and ran howling out of the ring, so I gave them all a 0 out of 10. just as we were about to announce the winner(s), the referee stepped up and announced that I showed traces of poodle DNA. he removed me from the bench due to conflict of interest. in the end, some lumbering Newfie won the competition, fuck.

lol!

I watched The Hurt Locker before bed on Tues and dreamed that I was in Germany when war broke out. Instead of going to the airport to catch my flight back home to the US, I was trying to hide from sniper's bullets in a flimsy house, so I got into the bathtub and kept my head down. Eventually fell asleep on bathroom floor, worrying about missing my flight.

Was woken up by two real-life friends who despite not being warlike or survivalist AT ALL were able to safely reach my house to ask why I hadn't gone to the airport. BOY did I feel silly to be caught hiding in the bath! I mean we've all been there, right?

I took my parents to this diner in Watts that I like and they were really insulting and racist about it.

Kiitën (admrl), Thursday, 24 June 2010 17:21 (thirteen years ago) link

haha Laurel, it took me a few seconds to realize that you didn't sleepwalk and crawl into the bath irl while dreaming about dodging bullets, only to be discovered there irl by your confused friends. now that would really be an appropriate time to feel silly.

Oh, apparently I sleepwalk too. A few months ago, I opened a sliding glass door and went out onto a 6th floor roof deck in my sleep, in bare feet and nightgown (luckily), and then went back to bed. The only evidence of my perambulation was a slightly open sliding door and some asphalt dust on my feet. Very weird in the morning when someone else says, "HEY, who left the door open IN MARCH??"

i dreamt my uncle was in charge of hiring someone for a job and he wanted me to fax his written decision to other people. it turned out he was hiring me! i promised not to read it but i could see through the cover sheet. the writing referred to "the queen" but i knew they meant me.

i dreamt i was outside with my sister late at night in front of my parents' house and a guy was walking by. he started to walk up the driveway because he wanted to commit armed robbery against someone, either me or someone else. i told him he had to leave the property. he began to retreat but as he did he shot at me 5 times. somehow i knew none of the shots would hit me so i was just like "meh." i didn't call the police. the next day i was sitting in a room with some people, possibly at a school where the other people were students. i was reading an old newspaper. i saw an article with a large picture of the guy. i then looked up and he was sitting on a chair nearby, minding his own business. i said "HEY! IT'S YOU!!!" and he kind of shrugged. i told him i didn't believe in calling the police so i wasn't going to get him in trouble but i said it wasn't right to come onto someone's property and shoot at them, and he should consider not doing things like that anymore because other people might have guns and shoot him back.

you want someone to give you an erotic massage, but you're unsure whether it should be in the traditional style or "siam" style.

I went out back to this trash compactor. I had a big mail bin. I pulled a lever and held the bin beneath the trash compactor. A bunch of mail and post cards came raining down into the bin. I went through the bin and some of the envelopes were sticky but there were 4 or 5 that were pretty thick and one post card that was cool so I snatched it. The thick letters were from 6 or 7 years ago, from my friend Scot to his mom who lived in Miami (IRL she died when he was 10). I opened one of the letters and it was like a little diary he kept for her to let her know how he was doing. I felt bad about opening that one and decided to mail them all back to him, but I couldn't remember where he lived.

I wish I had the self-control not to do this, but...

some of the ********s were sticky but there were 4 or 5 that were pretty thick and one p*** c*** that was cool so I snatched it

poignant dream though. maybe you're curious about the inner life of people who've been through tragedy because you'd like to learn how to cope with traumatic events in your own life. but you feel that it's improper and a little exploitative to seek out and study their feelings of loss for your own personal gain, so that's why you mailed the letter back to him.

ASK DOCTOR FREUD HAS HAD A BRAEKTHROUGH

johnny crunch, Friday, 2 July 2010 23:12 (thirteen years ago) link

dreamt

  • i was about to start school. all classes took place at a dinner table! with food! boring american food. i forgot to get one of my books, though. i had to go around the corner to get it at the bookstore. the professor had written the book. the course was economics. it seemed he was making his own illegal copies but his copy machine was like some kind of stove. turned out he was teaching some kind of right-wing dumb economics so i dropped the class after i looked at the book.
  • at the class/dinner table a girl had ordered whiskey. it came in a snapple bottle. i asked for some and implied she wouldn't be drinking all of that and she became irate
  • i had written and published an article about economics & homelessness
  • i gave legal advice to a domestic violence victim and omar little was there. he had an afro with syringes sticking out of it. i hugged him.

* You have a secret crush on someone much older.
* You're bicurious but are hesitant to act on it.
* You wish you could organize your everyday life better.
* You need a hug.
