This is my second entry from one of the many vivid dreams I remember from my child hood. These are short, but I will try to write descriptively.

At this time, I was around 9. Before falling asleep that night, I saw my mom cleaning the oven and scrubbing away. I remember the awful sound her scrubbing made, and as I watched her, she seemed like she could almost crawl inside and keep scrubbing. I don't think I really knew how deep the oven was and maybe somehow got the idea that it was very deep.

---- Dream: Octopus

Like my Planets dream, I once again woke in my dream to a sound coming from the kitchen. Things were more illuminated this time around in my dream, the kitchen lights were on and the glow from that made it's way into the hallway and in my room. When I emerged from my room, the sound was faint sounds of metal being banged. Cautiously making my way down the stairs I looked into the kitchen to try and find the source. The sounds stopped and everything seemed fine.
In the middle of the kitchen there was a metal trolley with all sorts of monitors and boxes, there was keyboard and a mouse. There was wires everywhere and tubes coming out and into things. It looked complex, and from the trolley were these pipes that came off and fed into the oven. I looked at one of the monitors and didn't see anything that was useful. A bunch of numbers. Suddenly one beeped. I looked too it and on the screen was a very pixelated illustration of an octopus, and it's tentacles were moving.
The sounds started again, the source seemed to be the oven. I paused and looked at the oven waiting for something to emerge. The sounds echoed and, approaching the oven, I leaned my head to the side to look inside... There was no back on the oven, and it seemed to go on forever like a long tunnel. Now the sounds are getting clearer, and I can feel almost feel the booming. My heart sped up and I knew that it was coming fast! RUN! I remember thinking, I turned around as fast as I could and everything got slow. Like there was tar on the ground I could hardly move.
I managed to make it past the trolley before I felt the presence of something behind me, I turned and saw nothing. Then suddenly, out shoots a thin gray, oily looking tentacle, followed by the other 7. They all pulled on the sides of the oven pulling out this blob of a head. It caught sight of me and started to get within reach. I yelled and screamed and my running got quicker.
I got a look at the octopus, and it was very large and seemed to be growing. I ran around a wall and came from the other side. The octopus knew what I was doing and waiting for me.
A random cupboard was on an adjacent wall, and under it was a vacuum box that I used as a stool. It felt like the octopus was right behind me, smelling me. I hurried into the cupboard and began to cry as one of my legs couldn't fit and the doors wouldn't shut. "He's RIGHT THERE" I thought, "he's going to get me!" My foot slipped inside and one of the doors I closed. Except the other one had no handle on the inside. I didn't know how to close it and the tentacles were trying to get it.
Things began to get dark, faded, and blurry. Things evaporated away, and once again, there I was in my bed.

I just joined today, so my first entry will be about one of the many vivid dreams I remember from my child hood. These are short, but I will try to write descriptively.

I was around 7 or 8 yrs old. My comforter was dotted with space ships, planets, satellites, and stars; if you looked at the whole blanket, there was details of you being inside of a space ship, looking out into space.
Before I fell asleep, I had a small dim lamp lighting my room while I studied the blanket marveling at the planets and details in the satellites. It was a summer night and I after turning off my lamp I fell asleep to the smell of lawn freshly cut that night~

---- Dream: Planets

I dreamt that I had woke up to a sound coming from down stairs in the kitchen. My room was completely dark except for the hallway outside my room, which was barely lit from the hallway night light. I trotted down stairs and investigated what might have made what ever sound it was that I heard. Standing at the base of the staircase, I peered into the darkness and saw nothing.
Giving up on the sound, I wandering into the living room and looked out the big picture windows we had with a couch butted up against them. As I waddled up the couch and gazed into the sky, Jupiter was RIGHT there! HUGE. Bigger than a pizza pie! About 10 times bigger than the moon. Behind it I saw Saturn and its rings. They moved about each other, coming nearer and further away from Earth.
Soon Uranus and Neptune slide into view, Venus and Mars close behind. Pluto was like the Moon, but look a bit bigger and greyer. At this time I am kneeling on the couch and pressing my face up against the glass to see it all better. Mercury was there as well, but like Pluto, was nothing to interesting to look at.
The harder I looked at the planets the more detail I saw in the planets, just like my blanket. The red dot on Jupiter swirled around and around, blackness being mixed in with reds and oranges. I fixed my eyes upon the rings of Saturn and remembered my brother; he saw them through his telescope and it was his favorite planet. I studied as hard as I could so I can tell him about it, but just then things were starting to fade. The planets I wanted to look at got smaller and started to zip away. Three big trees got in the way and suddenly I found my self laying in my bed wrapped up in my space ship blanket.
