President

Oh my god.

I dreamed that Prince was the projected winner in the upcoming presidential election, and I was extremely concerned because in my dream he was still going by the symbol instead of his name, and I was super anxious because...

What the hell are we going to call him? President...what?

living

i was driving. there was someone else in the car. suddenly we were ambushed and several men came out behind a fence with guns and started firing. i looked down to see my belly had been shot several times. i was outside of the car at that point. my hands clutching the metal wire fence. and i thought to myself "this is it. the end of my life. i hope everyone knows how much i love them." and i kept repeating it to myself "i love them i love them i love them" over and over until i felt myself die.
i am a living example that you can, in fact, die in your dream and still live.

Real Close

I dreamed I was backing away from something and I backed straight into a man. I looked up and realized it was Ice Cube.

"Sorry, Ice Cube," I said to him. Then I wondered... "Are you sure this is Ice Cube and not Ice-T?"

No, I wasn't sure...

And so I cuddled up with him, real close.

Dad's Dream about Vampires

While talking to my mother this evening she mentioned that my father was up half the night because he had a nightmare about vampires. Naturally I was intrigued. So Mom passed the phone off to Dad and he filled me in. So this is the dream that my dad had, told in the first person as in he's talking. I typed parts of this while he was telling me, so you should probably imagine an accent as you read this.

I was in Vampire Land and I was surrounded. At first the vampires were nice but then they were terrible and were doing horrible things and were changing shapes. And I had so many people to protect. But you know what I did? You know how I defeated them? The power of the mind. I just focused and the vampires would be so frustrated and then I would chop their heads off. I was the next vampire slayer.

But finally I had to get up and go to the bathroom and I was awake and I made myself stay awake because I had enough of this stupid dream. But I was exhausted from focusing so hard and killing all the vampires. So I laid awake until I was so tired and then I fell asleep again.

You know what's so interesting? The power of the mind. And how you can just focus and control others and beat the hell out of them.

jockeys

I have a recurring dream in which I'm in high school and there either it's the first day or it's the last day and I haven't been to class all semester. Bored!

So alls I remember from my dream last night was that I got my class schedule on my first day of high school and I had all these ridiculous classes listed. Also, the last two periods were free periods, which meant I'd be done with school early. As I left school (early, I guess), I noticed two "jockeys" walking by me. That's what they were called in my head. "Jockeys." One was about 4'6" or so, and the other had to be about 3 feet tall. They both had pointy features, brown pointy beards, red jackets with goldish decorations and emblems, and hard riding hats. 

Jockeys?

If you're not sure who sharkie is, look at this wonderful video:



I was playing with him but then got nervous that I'd break him, so I gave him back to my sister. That's it!

Rats, Braless, Barack

Lori's dream about rats reminded me that I had a similar dream where there were rats everywhere - but they were more like cute animated rats, likely because I watched Ratatouille the night before.

For some reason I'm only remembering snippets of dreams this week:

- at some point of a much more involved dream, I realized that all of a sudden my bra was gone. My shirt was still on, but the girls were free and I remember folding my arms over my chest and scampering away. Yes, scampering.

- I was at a counter where this saleswoman was trying to get me to sign up for a new credit card. She was listing all the perks that come with it, tickets to shows, hotel discounts but also you get to train with Michael Jordan and live with Barack Obama.

RATS!

What is going on lately? So last night I was snuggled up in a stranger's bed. Not a complete stranger but pretty much. See, I'm dog sitting for this girl and her 8 dogs, 4 snakes, and slew of lizards. Yes I said 8 dogs and yes it IS a wonder I get any sleep at all. Oh, and really 3 dogs are hers and 5 are up for adoption . So, she and the hubby needed a vacation and I am dogsitting for them. I can't remember who all is allowed on the bed and who isn't so i let it be a free for all. So, back on topic, I was sound asleep. Or sound-ish asleep and having crazy horrible dreams about rats on me. They were slinky and scurrying on me. I awoke with a start and Hannah was squirming under the covers down by my feet and tickling my legs with her tail. HORRIFYING to wake up from a rat dream and have a critter at your feet. Hannah is awesome though so you should take her home. Winter is coming and she'll help you out with spastic snuggling!

It Got Him!

So for some reason I have a lot of extremely violent and gory dreams. More violent than any scarry movie I've seen or any TV show I've watched. Often people are getting killed. I don't know where these dreams come from as I can rarely make connections between them and to real life. They usually play like a movie. I am rarely in them, rather I am watching what is happening. This is one that I had last night, it's not as bad as some I have had.

It was night time and a man was running around outside of a house frantically. Two men were inside the house talking about how there is something in the town that is "getting" people. They see the man outside running around. They go outside in the yard to see what is wrong with him. He starts coughing and collapses on the ground. The two men walk over to him to see that he is convulsing on the ground and something is eating away at his body. Like parts of his body are melting away. They say "it got him!" they bend down to try to ask him questions. He smells so bad they have to plug their noses. "Did you see what it was?" The man who's body is decomposing in front of them shakes his head. One of the men says "I know you can't tell us his name, but what did he look like?" The man just convulses and eventually stops moving. The two men look at each other in horror.

Over in another part of the town a large group of people are coming out of a bar or building. There are two men walking ahead of everyone else in the group. They are all talking and laughing loudly when all of a sudden there is a loud noise and the two men that were ahead of everyone can't be seen. The group of people all stop and look frightened. They are looking around for them and calling out their names. All of a sudden they smell an awful smell and all start plugging their noses while they look around.

They finally come up to the two men who are laying on the ground in a pool of blood. The group of people start screaming and looking around. Out of the bushes comes a giant figure. A huge shadow covers them. They look up and see that it is a giant clown! A huge, maybe 30 ft tall, clown is standing over them in a red suit with white polka dots. He has a white face with red hair. He smiles at them showing he has huge sharp teeth that are all bloody. They look down and there is a trail of blood from where they are standing that leads off to the street where a huge clown car is parked. The clown car looks just like the giant clown's head, where the ears are the doors. They look back at the clown looking down at them . . . .

and then I don't remember the rest!!! I think my alarm went off! These dreams are usually really long and detailed and usually end with me waking up in the middle of the night.

it will just take a second

I had a dream that I was at work and I had to use the bathroom. the bathrooms at work are shared public bathrooms because I work in city building. So I go across the hall and I have to pee really bad. I decide to use the handicapped bathroom which is its own separate room with a locking door. I walk in and I see that the Janitors cleaning cart is in there but I decided that since I just have to pee I will just lock the door go quickly and the janitor will not be inconvenienced. So I lock the door and turn around to pee and all of a sudden the door is being banged on and the janitor is yelling that she needs to get in there to clean. I yell back I just need to use the bathroom I will be out soon. the janitor unlocks the door and behind her are all of these people gawking at the commotion. the Janitor is standing there and with all the gawkers behind her and I yell

"LOOOK I just need to pee then I will leave, I don't need the entire FUCKING CAST OF ROSEANNE watching me while I pee ok, close the door."

because as we all know calling people "the cast of roseanne" is really insulting.
