Default Dreams

I was just in the "End of the World" topic, where they were talking about Fish's dream about the world ending, and I realized that we need a good dream discussion topic.

I love talking about/examining dreams, basically because they are so mysterious and have a certain "unknown" factor. Please feel free to post some of your most vivid dreams, long or short, in this topic.

I *rarely* have a dream that I can remember, let alone one that is so vivid that I can't forget it. I've never had a reacurring dream, nor have I had any bad nightmares. the "nightmares" I've had always seem like my mind's pathetic attempt at drawing on the emotions that are used the least, specifically fear. I don't usually let myself get caught up in situations where fear is a factor, so i guess that might be why.

Anyways, here is the most vivid nightmare I've ever had, and it happened when I was only about 4 or 5 years old:

I walked into my livingroom, and, to my surprise, my 1st dog, Tanner, had turned into a real-life cartoon. Tanner was a golden retriever, and this cartoon looked nothing like him (except for color). It was a goofy-looking dog with a big red nose and a large red spike collar. I think it might have had a spot or two, and its eyes were only black ovals. It was multiplying--everytime I truned around, there were more of them. Anyways, somehow I knew that, if the cartoon licked you, you would turn into one. Stacey, my babysitter that night (and nextdoor neighbor) was up on a chair in the livingroom avoiding the dogs. I yelled to her and told her not to let them lick her, but when she heard that, she suddenly decided to pet the dogs. You can guess what happened next--she turned into one. I then ran down the hall, squeasing my way through this croud of malevolent cartoon dogs to my little brother's door. I ran in, grabbed him, and practically chucked him into my room, where I slammed the door and put myself against it...

Yes, it is silly and bizzar, but I was really young. Like I said, I can't remember any good ones, but I like to tell that one for a laugh. (*expects high-heat flaming*)

i almost never have dreams, so to balance my mind out (i guess...) when i do dream they are extra crazy. One thing that almost always pops up is me being in love with someone else in the dream. It's a different person every time (just to make things complicated) but i dont think we ever get to express that. Other than that my dreams are like a bad acid trip. People beating whalesharks into large cubes, art galleries run by Winn-Dixie people, crazy underground bunkers with window views. maybe i should seek help. unless someone out there can help me interpret my dreams.

Mine always involve me being in random places at random times with random people, doing really stupid stuff that makes no sense(like walking into a bar in a houseboat on the water with singing alligators for entertainment, and a giant pink disco ball that talks and has cool shades, etc). Either that or I'm a guy with cool powers defending my friends or loved ones or the world 8)

One of my dreams that I remember the most...

I was in a room with a girl that sorta looked like Alice from DDR. Then all of the sudden a big guy that had three heads, was wearing a Jason mask on each one, and had a broken baseball bat walked in the room. We escaped through the window and saw thousounds of Jasons and all of my friends in battle armor fighting them. I was just running through the warzone when I see my weird friend Chris fighting a Jason on the ground. He said something like, "You have a gentle touch." Then the Jason killed itself.

I have very weird dreams.

This talk about dreams reminds me of the very little that I know about Freud. I just borrowed a book about Freud from the library today, and I know that he has proposed many ideas about analyzing dreams. I'll have to look into that more, but I do know a little bit of his process.

Tank101, has anyone ever said that to you before? If so, when, where, and why? Was there something going on at the time of the statement that affected you emotionally? Does this statement remind you of any feelings or desires that you had during that time?

I don't mean to pry into personal space, but I believe that this is similar to the method Freud used to analyze the dreams of his patients.
