Dreaming...and sharing the details - Page 3

Sundae · 08-21-2006, 08:05 AM

I find that if I'm hungover and dreading getting up I dream I'm already doing it. It's so frustrating to get half way to work and wake up!

I have certain dream scenarios that make me think, "Am I dreaming?" which should be a giveaway in its own right as I never think that in my waking life. These include finding lots of coins - pounds and pounds in change - having to pull myself along rather than walk normally and everything I look at being too bright.

These are all early morning dreams when the light is already hitting my face.

I'm dreaming right now that I'm on the Cellar. It's weird, though, because I have more control over this dream than usual.

Now I'm going to go tell my boss what I think of him. This should be fun.

You go glatt! Let's hope you still have a job when you wake up

The most annoying kind of dream is dreaming that you know you have some sort of ability- flying, telekenesis, whatever, and not being able to use it for some weird reason.

I used to be good at the lucid dreaming stuff. I could fly around and land at will. Thing is, I had to have one of those little handheld, battery-powered fans in my hand. If I pushed the button and pointed it at the ground, up I'd go. Turning the fan too far away from the ground caused a stomach-flopping loss of altitude, and if you didn't time it right, you landed HARD.

For some reason, it only worked in my back yard.

I did go off the edge of a cliff on a motorcycle once. While I was falling, the bike went away and I drifted down into the middle of a picnic where my family was.

I lucid dream a lot, actually... and I also have a LOT of that whole incorporating sounds and stuff around you into the dream thing, too. I sleep with music on every night, and the end effect is one of having a dream soundtrack, prettymuch. I've always got music playing in my dreams.

You don't need the music playing to have a soundtrack to your dreams. You've got plenty of music in your head.

Ibby · 09-04-2006, 09:04 PM

Yes, and to be honest I DO always have some kind of music boppin' around in there, whether I'm listening to it or not, but my point was that when I sleep listening to music, I can still hear it.

Sure, haven't you seen the ads for learning a foreign language while you sleep, by listening to recordings?

Well I know I know the words to just about every song on my computer, and seeing how I have over 4250 songs, thats a lot of lyrics.
