Thread: Andysmee's Dream Journal

Dreams last night


a. I need to ask for a day off work as my gf has pre-arranged something, but I know that work won't let me as we have too much on...

b. I'm travelling along the south coast (of England I presume). I go into a town (probably on foot) and it has lots of aquaduct-like channels made of grey marble with roman inscriptions. The aqauducts are like drainage channels with junctions in the main sqaure. On investigating a duct I get splashed with water (clean water)...then I am met by a guide (there's loads of tourists visiting the town to see the aquaducting) she informs me that I need to leave by 5.35pm as the water then arrives...so I am in a minivan (white astravan) with two mates and we decide to leave the town square, it's 5.38 so we need to hurry. my mate is driving and we drive down the slope (directed by the guide) and the road drops round in a spiral as if travelling along a harbour wall, towards the bottom of the circle the road drops off ledges - 10 ft, 20 ft and maybe 30 ft drops, I can't see how the van will survive the last drop (like driving off a harbour wall in to the sea) but we simply drive off each ledge and land without any noise or shock (dreamsign!!&#33...a policeman stops us and I get out of the passenger side holding three darning needles (one end to end against the others) and put them down on the roof of the car, I reach for some id or something (the others in the car also rummage for them)...then I am trying to photograph one of my mates or the policeman but every time I raise the camera to take a photo I can't get them in the frame (dreamsign!!&#33, I try a few times and then give up, the policeman gets back in to his bus (which is a police coach in full livery&#33, I point out to my mate that he wasn't a policeman and briefly suggest we follow the coach but think better of it...



c. I need to postpone something until a later time...

Dreams last night

a. I am on a track day with my car but it won't go at normal speed. I am on the grass at times and it is muddy, I end up pushing it round by hand...I only recall having to force myself around, it is very difficult

b. I am at home at my parents and we wake up to find the cars are stolen, well, one of them, the Cavalier. Then we find some evidence of how they stole it, a piece of electronics which shows how they cracked the Audi security by plugging in the ecu and reading it

c. We are in a chalet where we are being served food at a long table with about 10 seats but I am being invited to stay for food...the next day the same thing happens...then on the third repeat I decline to stay saying that they should "just say no" instead of letting me impose. I help get out a bowl so that I can eat the first course, probably pasta, the bowl is a deep ceremic bowl with a red glazed interior and light exterior...we are outside in the snow in a ski resort [not lillehammer, where we may be going in a few weeks] there are chairlifts but they are not running and we are looking for somewhere to snowboard from where we are standing. There is a drag lift running with skiers on it and a slope dropping down to the left, but because the chairlifts aren't running we decide not to risk boarding. I think about what I should do about tracking which lifts are running from one day to the next, should I cross through the lift on the piste map, no, I'll just put a question mark through them in case they are running tomorrow



d. I'm in the terminal of an airport and it is busy (like a students' union bar) I am talking to a group of women who are clearly stewardesses for an irish airline given that they are wearing smocks in green and black with shamrock (or clover) patterns all over them. Two of them are holding hands and hugging or something, and one in front of them is talking to me. There are a couple more of them in the group, all too close to be comfortable. One of them tells me the other two are lesbians, and then flashes me (no more details available here&#33 and explains she is seeing a guy "over there" who is a doctor (student) [woke up]

No particular dream signs in these, as if my subconscious knows not to do anything unrealistic in case I notice! Only possible one is that the chairlifts weren't running in spite of good snow conditions but that's not unheard of

So, catch up time...

A few nights back I tried the affirmation that I would wake up after every dream and it worked, but I woke up with absolutely no recollection of having been dreaming and no recollection of any dreams, so now I have reverted to my previous method of telling myself that I will remember my dreams and hey presto, I remember about three or four a night when I wake up in the morning...

Without further ado, the night before the night before last went something like this [backwards]...

a. I am visiting somewhere like Australia or something [very vague this one] and there are killer spiders [I was watching a documentary abour killer bees before going to sleep!] flying around me [yes, flying], one lands on my thumb and bites and draws a drop of blood. I suck my thumb whilst my friend starts chewing the inside of the pocket of his jeans which he thinks is impregnated with dried in antidote, but in fact he soon realises that it is poison and will hurt him...I am chewing a biro, with the sole intention of..eating it. Then I taste the blue ink and have to rinse out my mouth with water.

b. I female friend of mine is in front of me and I give her a hug

Then the night before last gave me this gem...

c. My car won't start. It is blocking a tunnel (like a short railway bridge), after a while I move it to one side.

Last night...

a. I am going on a day out. I walk to meet my parents at a restaurant. I walk through an alley to a roundabout, the restaurant is down the road which has KFC on the corner. When I get there I get told off for having driven without my gf and her friend, as they will now have to drive which is a waste of a car. There I meet my brother [who I've been meaning to ring back] and chat...later I re-run the dream and as I approach the restaurant I realise that another friend of mine is following me (or at least going the same way) but she is pushing a bright blue coffin on a trolley - metallic blue like car paint on a 50's style chrome rimmed coffin...

b. I am kicking flattened rusty tin cans out of the way of a path. I am then in a open top car standing on the seat driving along following a woman running...

a. I am on the bridge of an ocean going liner, but because it has just been built by the french [don't ask me why I dreamt this, I don't have anything against the french!!!] it is struggling to get out of the harbour, it has several tugs and even some planes towing it! (including the lifeguard helicopter and some boat planes (flying)) So as it moves towards the open sea its path is interrupted by a seacat ferry which I wave to go in front of us (I am not steering it would seem) although I think better of giving instructions as the captain should do that but I am on the very front of the boat so they can see me. Then I hear a call from an officer that "it's a very big one" and as I look to my left there is a whirlpool (like someone unplugged the bath) so I start to steer the ship away from the hole, by now the tugs have all but left, the planes have certainly gone, in any case I can't see them from where I am. The ship does manage to steer away but progress is slow...what will become of the ship? [woke up]

b. [I am having a typical anxiety dream] I am trying to work out which road to take just south of the M4 near Windsor to make it to work [eventually I woke up and had to talk myself into just sleeping until the alarm since there was nothing to "work out" - I always repeatedly solve problems in my sleep when I am stressed, over and over and over probably not sleeping at the time]
