Weird Dream of the Week

[dps]

So, I had a dream that I was living in an apartment that was just one very, very large room.  I mean, there was a kitchen, and a large living room, and a really big rec room, and several bedrooms, but there were no actual walls or even partitions separating them.  There were closets that had regular walls around them and doors to them;  I'm not actually sure any bathroom(s).  Anyway, I had a wargame (I think it was Fire in the East) set up in the rec room part, but all the light bulbs in the apartment started burning out, and I didn't have any light bulbs on hand to replace them.  Fairly quickly I was down to just one tiny lamp with a 40-watt bulb to light this huge living space, but I found a candle to light.  Well, one little emergency candle didn't help much, and then just a few moments after I lit it, it turned into a snake.  Somehow I knew that it was a very poisonous snake, and I was terrified of it even though it was only about 4 inches long.  But I knew I could freeze it and then safely dispose of it if I sprayed it with a fire extinguisher, so I started looking through the closets for fire extinguishers.  Why fire extinguishers would be kept in the closets, I don't know.  Interestingly, I even questioned that within the dream.

I had a dream that a Russian girl I dated in DC was now working for the KGB and had been assigned to seduce me.  She seduced me by making me feel sorry for how fat she was now. Then her boss Vladimir Putin, who looked just like Rick Perry, asked to borrow some of my neckties.

This is interesting in light of recent events.

Raz, how frequently do you read through 5 year old posts.

He has a database I think

I don't know.  A KGB honeypot seducing Yi into a pity-fuck on behalf of Rick Perry is something worthy of being remembered.

Damage Per Second bumped the thread.  I looked at the beginning of the thread to see if there was any weird dreams I remember.

You know what kind of dreams can go get fucked? Getting lost. I get these eevry couple of weeks or months or so:

It usually starts in an environment that - in the dream - I should know, or at least feel familiar with. A small town of some sort, mostly, though the context can change (private, work related etc.). In the dream I find that I have a good "mental map" of the place and know it by heart. I go wandering a bit, but when it's time to return (to get on with a journey, to meet an appointment or whatever) I end up not quite finding the way. I feel I get close, but not really, and end up wandering around like a moron.

I don't panic, bust mostly get annoyed with myself. Additionally, I refuse to ask for directions and instead insist on finding he way on my own, "because I know how to get there" and want to figure this out for myself.

Last night I actually had a dream where I might have gotten lost, but I used a navigation app and found my way.

Derspiess actually.

Last night I had a dream I was hastily assigned to teach a 100-level college Math class. I was totally unprepared, so on the first day of class I borrowed a syllabus from a buddy of mine who is an English prof. Nobody seemed to notice.

Weird dream woke me up last night.

I dreamt that my body dissolved into thoughts, and each thought was an ant. The ants were building a nest on my pillow out of garbage they found lying around, in the shape of a giant ant head. Meanwhile, my wife was trying to catch the ants in a jar, to force them to combine into me again.

You fear married life is dissolving your personality?

Isn't it the opposite, Mr. Freud?

You have been having unpure thoughts about a women not your wife and your subconscious is warning you about what would happen if you no longer had your wife around.  The good news is she would still try to save you.  So, worth a shot?

I had a dream last night in which I boxed Donald Trump.  It took place in a ranch home.  Most of the dream was preamble, him gaming me and trying to distract me, but eventually we got laced up and squared off.  Then the gloves magically disappeared.  In the dream he was cut up, nice sixpack, and was considerably taller than me (though I'm 6'1") and had a reach advantage.  Still managed to get some good head shots in and he didn't touch me.  He might not have taken a swing.  After about six of my punches we both fell on the floor exhausted.  Then we shook hands and congratulated each other on a good fight.

I had a dream last night I was in some Palestinian Authority area with my son and we stopped to eat at some halal food truck that served non-alcoholic craft beer (IPA, Amber, and "German lager") and what turned out to be some really tasty paninis.  My son's panini had ham in it but neither of us dared say anything.  The beer definitely tasted like it had alcohol in it, and the people working there got really nervous when I told them so.
