I need to go look at yours again. I remember you were very good. Very impressive. I would like to become good at something like that.

Aw thanks. I'll still do those too I'm sure.

Been a while since I have had one of these...

Vampire Dream:


The beginning is fuzzy. I was with Buffy the Vampire Slayer and a few friends and we were trying to kill this group of vampires before they killed us.

The part I remember had us walking down this street at night. As we passed this little store on our right this very old powerful vampire suprised us and grabbed Buffy. He said he didn't want to kill us...only to make us vampires so we could join him. I didn't know what to do. I looked to Buffy who seemed helplessly in his grasp. She looked at me with a look that told me it was going to be okay. I had no idea how this was going to be okay. I watched in horror as he brought his mouth to her neck. I could see him bite her and start sucking her blood.

At this point I remember noticing what we were wearing. Buffy had on this little lacy white dress. And I was wearing this long lacy black skirt and a sheer white blouse. I wondered why we were wearing sexy outfits to go vampire hunting. I remember seeing myself as if in a mirror. We looked good. Our necks were so exposed...

After a short time he pulled Buffy back away from him and grinned at me. I knew I was next. But instead of biting me himself he told Buffy to bite me. I looked at her closely. She didn't seemed to be a crazed new vampire. She again gave me a reassuring look. But I still was not sure how becoming vampires was a good thing at all. But I trusted her and slowly bent my neck so she could get her mouth to it. I looked up and the old powerful vampire was just a few feet in front of me watching this with great interest. Was Buffy really going to bite me? Was I going to have to fake something? But no, I felt her teeth go into my neck. I grimaced and stiffened. This was more painful that I had expected. Yet it wasn't as horrible as it could have been. Maybe becoming a vampire wasn't going to be so bad after all. But would I become a killer? That was bad, right? I wasn't really sure of anything.

Buffy sucked at my neck for a few more moments and then finally pulled away. I could somehow see my neck again. I saw two bloody spots where her teeth had sunk into my flesh. The old vampire laughed and seemed very pleased with himself. He told us to bite the rest of our friends. He seemed so confident in what he had started here that he suddenly left us alone.

I turned to Buffy. What was going on? Were we vampires? She then grinned at me and pulled something out of her pocket. It was a little totem. I knew what is was, but I had no idea she had it. If you activated this totem, it would protect you from becoming a vampire even if you were bitten. So she had never become a vampire. And when she had bitten me she there was nothing to pass on. It was all okay. We could now get on with the vampire hunting.

I guess I need to make a goal to do better with writing my dreams down as soon as I wake up. I have been dreaming...but I forget the dreams almost immediately. Here is one that I have mostly forgotten:

I had a possible lucid dream on the night of Christmas Eve which I didn't write down in the morning because it was Christmas, so all the details are lost. I only remember feeling the satisfaction after I woke up. I just remember thinking something like, "Well, it's about time I had a dream about Markus. And to fly with him too--that was great!"

From 2 days ago:

Dream:

I was at my grandparents' house and I had several high school and college friends (all guys) visiting me. In retrospect I can only remember George and Robert. But I remember thinking about how all of them were very good musicians and wished they could play together. I also remember just hugging George and how it felt so good and not wanting to let go of him.

Then I remember looking out the front window and seeing a high school marching band coming up the road and stopping and playing in front of the house. I was suddenly overwhelmed with emotion. I wished that I had gone to high school here and how good it would have been for me. And how I wished I could be there playing in the band now. I was totally choked up over this. [I have no idea where this emotion came from here.]

Today's dreams:


Dream 1:

I was talking to my mom on the phone and asking her if she could make some more raw almond butter for me and send it ovrer with Carl later today. Then she was telling me about this cool trilobite fossil she had gotten. It was about three inches long and pink. Then she stopped talking to me and I thought we had been cut off. Then she got back on the line and sounded a little shaken up. She said she had been talking to me outside when the neighbors' goat had come into her yard and butted her, knocking her down. She said that this goat was known for butting people and that they usually kept him penned up.

Dream 2:

I was talked into eating a bite of hamburger. It had no flavor and I instantly regretted going off my raw vegan diet.

From a hike ealier this week.

Yesterday's dreams:

Dream 1:

Another Buffy inspired dream. Spike was tring to kill me, but everytime he found me he was so overwhelmed by my beauty and charisma that all he wanted to do was kiss me. Hahahah....




Dream 2:

I was at my grandparents house and looking out the front window at soe vultures that had landed and were quite near the house. I tried to find my camera so I could take a picture, but I never could find it.

Dream 3:

I was in a house that was supposed to be Mary's. I commmented on here new kitchen furature. She then made me a frozen dinner. After I had suppsoedly eaten it, I realized that it was turkey, mashed potoatos and stuffing....all things that I wasn't supposed to eat. I felt horrible that I hadn't rememebered. Missed BIG dream sign.

Dream 4:

I was out in mom's backyard and saw all this stuff growing by the back shed that no one had planted but that has come up on its own. There were turnips, a really big beet, wild flowers and other things that I don't remember.

Today's fragments:

Buford the horse, a burning house, colorful beetles.

Wow, I'll bet that would be amazing. I have never seen anyone hang glide in this area. I wonder why.



There is no way I can catch up on all my dreams. I have had a bunch of interesting ones lately, but I'm bad and didn't write them down, so I'll choose the two that I remember pretty well.

Dream 1:

I was feeling a little depressed about my raw diet. I hadn't been feeling good one night and let myself eat some warm soup (yes, that was in real life) and was feeling down about it thinking that I had totally blown everything. So I found Markus Rothkranz (wish I had remembered I needed to go flying with him again.) I sat down with him and started to tell him my tragic story about giving in and eating the soup. I went on and on and he was a wonderful listener. But before I could get any feedback from him Jillian Michaels comes in and pulls me away and asks me to talk to her about how I was doing on my diet. So I began my sad story again to her. But I was able to tell her that I thought that the reason I wasn't feeling well the night of the "soup incident" was that I had been really working hard doing her workouts every morning and that I thought that maybe that had triggered a detox.

I woke up before either Markus or Jillian could talk to me, but I feel that this dream was good because I got to put my feelings into words and share and get it off my chest.




Dream 2:

I was in a store or place where Tom Delonge was. Most people had already gotten autographs and left. I finally went up to him and asked if I could take a picture with him. But when I tried I found that my camera just wasn't taking pictures. But I knew that if I switched it to video mode that it would work, so I did that and got some clips of him being goofy. The dream went on and i can't remember all the details. We were hanging out doing something. And he started flirting with me and told me I had a nice butt. And then he kept trying to touch it.





I know....I know....Famous people = Dreaming. Especially famous people trying to touch my butt.

Just not catching it.

Deserts tend to have turbulent air, but if you stay out in the open, it's fine.

And damn TS, where's the RC when you're camera doesn't work?

I know...I know. Famous people touching my butt...aaaand a broken camera. Does it get more obvious than that?

I'm beginning to think it's me that's broken.

It just hasn't been on my mind that much. That's the problem.

Dream 1:

I was a police officer, and I was really worried because I wasn't sure what I was doing. So I just drove around in my car praying nothing would happen.


Dream 2:

I was looking at all these different sized bowls in this very large coffee table. In the bowls were little frogs and fish in water. I though it was amazing There were so many different colored frogs. There were also jars with bamboo around the frogs. It looked like a little jungle.

I looked on the floor and saw a dried out frog that had gotten out of one of the bowls. I picked it up and found that it was still alive. I put it back in the water hoping it would recover. I also saw a goldfish on the floor that was also dried up. I couldn't tell if it was alive, but I put it into the water anyway.

I haven't done a very good job lately at writing down my dreams when I wake up. And in not doing so, I really just lose my dreams.

See, all that's left from my multiple dreams from last night is an image of something having to do with playing in the marching band and something with water and kayaking underground. Sad sad.

So to make up for it I will post a very entertaining and nostaglic video I made as a tribute to my favorite band from when I was young and in LA.

Dang...another night were I know I've dreamed. And I can still 'feel" the dreams. But yet there is not enough to put any actual images into my head. You know that feeling?

But anyway, here is a picture to fill in my empty spot.

Dream:

I was playing World of Warcraft with my Mom. She was one quest behind me and I was waiting for her to catch up so we could quest together. We were discussing how with the newest patch they had added in a lot with touch screen. The series of quests I had just finished and my mom was working on had you touching a place on the screen. I don't remember details except that a bar would fill where your finger was. It was some sort of machine in Gnomeregon.

I'm posting from Phoenix AZ today.

And it's going to be a beautiful warm sunny 75 degrees. Mmmmm...

Long long long dream about being in a new high school. I kept forgetting where any of my classes were, so I had to return to the office at least five times to pick up my schedule again. And even then I could never figure out where the rooms where or how the times worked. Everything was so confusing. Seriously, this dream went on for days....until I was so far behind in my classes that I knew I would never be able to catch up.

I had a lucid dream last night, with an odd ending. I have never had something like this happen before.

I will get to writing this up later when I get the chance. For now, this is just my commitment that I will write it down here.

I think I'll try to post my lucid dream from a few weeks ago. I have it written some where, but I can't find the paper. SO I'll have to do my best.

I remember getting lucid. I no longer remember how. [Shoot. I really wish I had my notes, because I really don't remember much of it now. And let this be a lesson to me about doing a better job at writing down my dream when they are fresh...and not on a loose sheet of paper that I am bound to misplace.]

I remember the second thing I decided to do was to find a guy to kiss. I think I remembered trying to go to the Moon, but I just plain felt lazy. Finding a guy to kiss was much much easier.

I flew down to a guy that I thought was good looking. Next thing I remember is that we are in a car making out. He was a good kisser. I pulled back at one point and took a good look at him. He reminded me of Robert Patterson. I remember thinking how I never found Robert Pattersom that good looking, but today he looked really sexy to me.

And that's all that's left in my memory of this dream.

I just remembered that the above LD was triggered by my dream sign of my camera not working. Yay me. I refuse to have another dream where my camera is not working and not get lucid.

There.

Dream within a Dream:

I don't remember a lot of the details here. I was starting college. Jeff and I were roommates. I went to sleep and started dreaming about Buffy the Vampire slayer and Angel. It was a sad dream and I started to cry. Jeff heard my crying and woke me up. I was embarrassed and didn't want to tell him what I was crying about. I then noticed my cat. I had no idea how she had gotten here. I knew that there was a rule about no pets here in the dorms. I wondered how I could hide her. I was suddenly so afraid that I would lose her somehow. It was very upsetting.

Dream:

I was at my grandparents' house. I has trying to hide from a big Godzilla-type monster that was roaming the city. I ran to the basement and discovered a hidden room that I had never known about. I was excited to see that on a table was a pile of board games including the one called Pop Dog that was our favorite game as kids and that disappeared later in life. "It's been down here in this hidden room the whole time." I said. My sister, who was suddenly with me grabs the game, apparently as thrilled as I am to see it again after all these years.

I also see a fridge. I'm nervous to open it. My grandparents have both been dead for quite a few years now. What if they left food in it that they never cleaned out before they died? No one else would have known about this room to find it and clean it. But when I open the fridge it is all empty and clean.

The only other thing I remember seeing in this room are piles of old fancy dishware.

Dream notes:
