      Can't type in a dream?

      I know I have wrote stuff down or typed thing in dreams before, and reading stuff has never been a problem. Today I had a lucid dream though, and I remebered I wanted to try a bunch of stuff on the computer. Well it went no where. I tried to type something but each key I hit would just make a random letter. Even when I hit the same key two or three times in a row, each time it would still give a different letter. I ended up giving up and doing something else but the dream did not last to long.

      I have no idea why that happened, anyone else seen that before?

      If I remember correctly, when you're sleeping the part of the brain that controls things like that is shut down. There's information around on that topic, but that's why looking at a digital watch or text is a common dreamsign because it typically changes. I've been able to read things in dreams, but I think that it may be because I'm typically a visual learner (or I just accept things how they are). It's normal.

      One time, in a dream, I tried playing a song on the piano which I know very well. Couldn't do it for the life of me...

      This is true. With absolute Lucid dream control things like this are possible. However for most of us the part of the brain that controls a lot of our cognitive functioning like math and other orderly functions do not coincide with the realm of the dream,
