The weird dream thread

The worst thing about the dreams I've had in the past few months is that they are so vivid that I wake up exhausted from all the activity I do in the dream -- usually frustrating work back at college or walking/jogging home from work miles away because I forgot that I drove to work.

Ahhh.... the familiar "forget" dreams... I have similar dreams: forgetting that I was enrolled in a class in college, forgetting my way to work... apparently they mean that there is something in our lives that we're putting off, something we dread facing.

I haven't had one of those since the weird dream thread was started on the CW Lounge, but I have frequently had dreams where I had a test in college or high school I hadn't studied for, or hadn't read the book for which a report was due soon, or whatever.

Many, many times, I have dreams about having to repeat all of high school because I missed one course. I never can remember the combination to my locker and usually can't even find my locker. I was never sent my class schedule, so I try to follow others around that I think are in the same classes as I am. Usually, I recall that there is some class I might have gone to once that I have missed all year and will without doubt fail. I also know that I have never received any of my grades so I don't know how I am doing in my classes or if I will be allowed to advance a grade the next year. Despite having taken all the classes before, I do worse the second time around. I often realize that I am still wearing my pajamas while in class.

I remember something about a house where part of the roof was missing and another part of the roof had been moved so that it was away from the house, not on top of anything.

This is about several nights worth of dreams. And I had some really vivid and strange ones that I didn't remember in time to write them down, except for these details:

My father was moving furniture along the walkway on the side of a bridge over railroad tracks, in the rain. It was all right to leave the furniture there because it's designed to be stored when it rains

My father was in my bed when I woke up.

There was a school where people in the auditorium were selling stuff at booths.

I had a dream I was going to a job interview and was wearing a red dress shirt. But somehow it kept turning into a black shirt and attracting cat hair. :/

I had a really weird dream last night but I don't remember much about it I just remember seeing my dad a lot in it!

[KyleEl]

I thought I'd remember a dream from last night but I didn't.

I do remember on another night a rich family where the daughter and her friends were skinny dipping in a pool and the daughter was worried her father would find out. I don't know how I was connected.

in my dream i had last night i was back in high school and i was pregnant and it was the last day of school i was a senior and i along with a few other students were doing our last retake of a history final, each student had already previously failed and if we failed this time we couldnt graduate, and my teacher was my actual history teacher i had in school and i knew he failed me the first time because he was mad that i wasnt with a former boyfriend of mine that he was really good friends with, so i was very nervous about taking this test and hoping maybe he wouldnt fail me again as i desperatley wanted to graduate soon as each student finished their test they were free to go and i watched a few of them leave making me extra nervous and so i finished mine soon and got up and left as i was walking away from the school to go home i watched a few others walk home too a few of them were joking and laughing and teasing eachother and i felt envious that for them they were so sure they had passed and didnt have all the worry that i did but as i watched it was as if some of the students seem to fade until they werent there at all it was very odd so i kept walking as i walked further and further suddenly i was walking through a department store and tons of other students were walking in there too on their way home and i needed to hurry so i saw this group of students that i knew and they had this tan bike and they were distracted and talking in a very fast excited tone to eachother and in so doing they left the bike unattended so i hurried and grabbed the bike and rolled it along very fast so they wouldnt catch me i wasnt riding it i walked swiftly so the many crowds of students would envelope me and block me from their view and they wouldnt know i had taken the bike soon i began to ride it and then i guessed they had someone searching for it so i ditched the bike and found another close by so i rode that one instead soon someone was after me and i had run into my friend from high school and she walked with me and we veered off into this huge changing room with clothes lining the walls. we spoke only a few words to eachother in the dressing room then we hurried out and ran towards the registers and the lines to leave but on the way we got distracted and i started choosing things to buy and i remember they were great sales like 97 cents for a jacket and it was cute too and so i had a huge cart of things and then i said why am i picking things out i dont have any money on me someone else had my money and somehwere along in my dream i had heard the guys that i stole the bike from saying who took it why would they take that its so and so's going away present and in real life the person they had named committed suicide

I had a very strange dream last night:

It was winter time and this guy who lives around the corner from me was trying to let his dogs poop in our yard, i ran to the spare bedroom which was my dad's room and opened up the window which turned into a sliding glass door and yelled at him to get his stinky dogs out of our yard. The next thing I noticed was that it was summertime and my dad walks up to the house and is wearing a white t-shirt and a pair of what looks like blue jeans and he isn't wearing his glasses like he normally did and he is smiling and happy, I yell at him "Daddy Daddy hi it's me Alysia" but he can't hear me and meanwhile it feels like the middle of the winter in the house. I try to jump out of the window to get him to notice me but he still doesn't respond, I then woke up sad because my dad always answered me when I called out his name, I feel like crying now, wait take that back i am crying, I want my daddy!

[KyleEl]

I've had so many weird dreams and I was so sure I'd remember a lot of details, but now I can't.

[avp60685]

this last one really stuck in my mind because i hadn't dreamed about my dad in quite some time

Last night's dream was really weird...

I was at a college, attending classes and whatnot. The college was as big as Hogwarts but it wasn't Hogwarts. It was like many different tiny colleges in one place. You could learn anything you could ever dream of... and then a crime was done, I can't remember if it was a murder or what, but I was framed. So, I had to solve the crime with a couple of my friends. And I almost died twice, but eventually solved the crime. I was a reporter, detective, and computer hacker. Then I was back to class then I was woken up. It was... interesting.

Now that I think about it, there were even people I knew in that dream... at least a few: Avp, Timmy, Moon, and another sister/friend that I've known since the sixth grade. Avp and the other sister/friend were my best friends, Moon was a professor, and Timmy was a librarian. Moon and Timmy helped me solved the mystery as well. It was one of the strangest dreams I've ever had.

that is strange sis!

I had a dream about something in a classroom last night, but I can't remember now what it was. All I know is it shouldn't have been taking place in a classroom.

[KyleEl]

I can't stand it when I wake up remembering so many details and then the next morning, nothing.

[KyleEl]

Same deal today. I know there was something relating to a school ...

Peter Jennings was doing the 6:30 network newscast but everything, including him, looked red. I was in the basement of a very large building sort of like the old people's home where my grandmother lived. As they went to a commercial Brad Pitt was shown entering a room, so we knew it was time for the nightly celebrity interview. All of the Big Three broadcast networks did this. There was an evacuation but I was one of those who couldn't leave, but I think it was just a drill. Morgansiren of the WB and CW message boards was doing some news program live and her nine-year-old daughter Izzy was getting on everyone's nerves. And her mother was bothered by the fact that Izzy liked Van Halen (which seems backwards--Morgan should like Van Halen and Izzy should be too young).

I went back to sleep and remember something involving one of my Facebook friends who I went to high school with.

[KyleEl]

There was chicken on my plate which turned purple when I tried to eat it. It was actually a person who had turned into a chicken.

Another night there were three downtown restaurants. One had a sign outside that said $3.71. Another said $3.69. It was very surprising when one said $3.61.

[troubledpenguin]

I had a dream one of my favorite bands was playing a concert in my living room. Only I couldn't get any of my friends to come over and see them. It was just me and my mom and one of my sisters. They were like "Wow. This is sad."

[avp60685]

I dreamed that my neighbor who I have been helping out a lot had died and that her son and granddaughters were busy cleaning out stuff from her house and whatnot and yet the inside of her house looked like nothing like it does in real life. Also for some reason because she was dead I could still see my neighbor hanging around the house, she didn't look like a ghost, she looked still alive!

I was in a community where robots were enforcing unreasonable rules. I think I was one of the robots, but I'm not sure. A woman I had never seen before but somehow knew was a member of my church was threatened for breaking the rules, but she relied on her faith to save her from the dire consequences. Somehow I ended up going back in time and witnessed the evolution of this evil society. At some point in the dream I realized I was at the beach.

[KyleEl]

All I remember since I was here last is washing my sheets and sitting on the couch hoping I could fall asleep during the time it took to wash the sheets because I felt really, really lousy. I think I did fall asleep because I remember a giant light bulb that looked like my uncle. That had to be a dream, and I'm pretty sure it was after I put the sheets in to wash.

[KyleEl]

I've had at least one dream that I got up and turned off the clock radio.

I wrote this down on another occasion since going to this site carrries risks if I don't actually have the time to spend here. I was downtown in a town that didn't exist and there were three restaurants. One had a sign saying 3.68. One had a sign saying 3.67. Another I saw later had a sign saying 3.61. Given the price of gas, I would say that dream was several weeks ago.

[troubledpenguin]

I had a dream my professor's wife was trying to kill all his students. We went and reported it to the Dean, but he was like "Oh, just ignore her, she's crazy."

[KyleEl]

I've had such vivid and interesting dreams. The problem is that's all I remember about them by the time I wake up.

[Watchtower]

I had a dream where Richard Castle was real, or was I in an episode of Castle? Castle was busy trying to find Beckett because she was missing. I was Nikki Heat from his books (you'd have to watch Castle to fully know what I was talking about). I needed to protect Alexis and Martha (Castle's daughter and mother) and there was an evil genius and clones involved. Martha died (Sorry Castle!) and I had to send Alexis to her father in order to protect her. That's when I woke up.

(Castle's mother just happens to have the same name as the iconic Martha Kent).

[KyleEl]

I woke up around 4 Friday morning. I was in a world taken over by Nazis or some evil group and a lot of stuff was getting blown up. I was afraid to go back to sleep. And in fact, I didn't until around 6. Once I got over the idea that I'd start dreaming about that again, I couldn't get relaxed because I was simply restless. I went out and walked three times, even though it was raining. Then I had the realization that I could be restless and do whatever was concerning me in my dream, which is what happened after I went back to sleep.

On another night I was in a world where characters from a CW show were real. I don't know what show. It wasn't an actual show but in my dream it was.

So....like they said in that movie...you know it is a dream if you cannot remember the exact point in which you arrived.

A town appears.
It is a fairly basic sub/downtown...mixed...with no real center.

It consists of a basic grid... North/South...East/West...streets with no name that extend unto infinity.

The streets are populated with all manner of memories...translated into shops, Bars, Diners...etc........from your life.

An unending Maze of big smiles and happy places.

The sky is always that of twilight.....the magic time that signals events are about to unfold.

As you travel the streets, you encounter all manner of old friends, family, passers-by and mentors....alll encompassed within this infinte grid.....as if it were a cosmic version of This Is Your Life.

[glow=red,2,300]And then...[/glow]

[KyleEl]

I've had at least one dream where I woke up to the clock radio.

Then a few hours later it happens for real.

I've had a lot of weird dreams lately but just can't remember them for posting here.
