There was a thread about lucid dreams not too long ago in Miscellaneous Discussion.

I went through a period of time many months ago where I kept having lucid dreams. I haven't had any in quite a while, and I miss it.

I'm sure majority of my dreams are quite strange, although, one of my favorite dreams involved a giant talking Domo-kun. He only spoke in Japanese, but I understood him. He also seemed to enjoy annoying people that I went to visit. It was fun. ;D

Hmmm... I've had a couple of really strange dreams.

1. Being chased by prehistoric crabs.
2. Having all my teeth just randomly start falling out and disintegrating.
3. Being chased across the street by a shadowy figure that got out of my neighbours swimming pool.

Um, let's see.
I'm in a car. The car goes on a roller coaster track. Drives through reception area. I see a gift shop. Get out of car. See plant I recognize somehow as deadly nightshade. Dream ends.

I had a really strange dream about half a year ago.

(In the dream) I was at home and then this person came to visit us. She said she was our cousin and her name was Water Lily. We went down to my basement and played video games, and then after a while I went to bed, but didn't fall asleep. I heard some sounds and I peeked in Water Lily's room and she was removing my sister's barbie heads. Then suddenly we were in this supermarket place, and we were buying something and then Water Lily says, "I'm not Water Lily, I'm Yiu Yiu! And she starts chasing me. And then I'm running and then my uncle just jumps in front of me and Yiu Yiu or Water Lily or whoever just killed him. :|

Last night I had a dream my brother was a giant pomeranian dog. He was only in the body of the dog though, and wished to be called Jimmy Hendrix. He was telling me all about his hat :roll: . When I told him I didn't want to hear about it, he started yelling about how I should respect him because he's the king of Pomerania.
Strange thing is, today I heard a very distinct fan talking about her new dog, which was a pomeranian whcih she named Jimmy.

I don't know whether I've said this before or not, but...
Back when I lived on a farm, we had turkeys and chickens. One night I had a dream and there was a turkey leg laying outside, no feathers or anything, looked like it was ready to eat. That was about 11 years ago, so I don't remember what I was doing or anything.
Next day I told my dad about it early in the morning, because it had seemed really real. Later in the morning, he came up to me and asked where I had seen a turkey leg. I told him it was a dream, but it actually had happened. I won't go into detail about how this happened, but out dog had pulled a turkey into the dog kennel, and in order for it to fit, the leg had popped off.

That is 100% true.

Heyhey. O do I have a wierd one for you! I posted this a few months back, but it's probably the wierdest one I've ever recorded (heck, it's the only one I've ever recorded).

Note: When I say "captain" throughout most of this, I mean "Magistrate".






[[First there were the unidentifiable bits at start of a dream, and then-]]
Captain: Have we not lived together, in relative peace? And this is how you repay us.
Murron: *Is me for some reason?*
Captain: *Slits her throat*
Murron: *Thankfully isn't me anymore... dies*
William Wallace: *is for some reason watching, trembles*


[[And THEN everything goes amok. Instead of the Scots massacring the English, it goes the other way round! Captain for some reason isn't there anymore? English leave only women and children alive- how considerate. yes, Wallace was killed too. Now THERE'S an interesting twist.]]
Guy who suddenly appeared: *starts listing names of people left alive, telling them where they'll go now... one goes to work for Jabba the Hutt? They go off to work for random characters from random books and movies, and then-*
Guy who suddenly appeared: Ok, next... you, in the black!
Me, who happens to be wearing a black dress: *Thinks he means someone else.*
Guy: You!
Me: *gestures to myself questioningly*
Guy: Yeah, you! Er- Who are you?
Me: *Is Eowyn*
Me: *walks up in very Eowynish manner* Eowyn I am, daughter of Eomund. [[Good lord, I even quote Pelennor in my dreams!]]
Guy: Uh, yeah... you work with... hm, the Captain.
Me: *Senses opportunity for revenge and/or escape back to Rohan, hops on big black horse from one of my RPs and rides to wherever the Captain is- apparently, it's not England.*


Scene Two: In the backround and having Nothing to do with the rest of the dream
Willam Wallace, who appears to be alive again: *cries*
William Wallace: *something about replanting the tree Murron was murdered on, even though it was a pole*
Hamish: Dude, it's a pole. You can't plant a pole.[[Yes, I actually dreamed this bit.]]
*end scene*


Scene Three: In the lair of the Captain, who suddenly looks like the Usurper from A City in Winter
Me: *Arrives*
Captain: Ah... the new arrival. And... you are?
Me: Eowyn am I, daughter of Eomund. [[Stop saying that!]]
Captain: I see... now, what exactly are you here for?
Me: *Starts decieving him in a very Murrieto-from-Mask Of Zorro-esque manner* I have come for a week to inspect the current state of your kingdom, Captain. *Low bow*
Captain: Ah... well, let me show you to your room....

Scene Four: In which the Captain shoots people.
Captain: *Shoots people for no particular reason*
Me: *Acts decievingly pleased... when alone pukes*

Scene five: Little schoolboys, and I'll note this also has nothing to do with anything
Little schoolboy: *leans out of school bus window*
Bus driver: *Goes around closing windows and warning that he'll do so, closes window on little schoolboy who can't understand a word he's saying, speaking only spanish*
Little schoolboy: *falls onto pavement, v. injured*
Captain: *shoves little schoolboy aside*
Little schoolboy: *rolls under bus in pain- bus rolls over him with more pain, and death.*
Me: Well what did you shove him to his death for?
Captain: Oh... erm, I didn't see him... yeah...
Me: Well for crying out loud, he fell out of a school bus window!
Captain: And that was his own fault for not paying attention!
Me: He couldn't speak english! It was your fault for not regulating the education system! [[Note: The captain seems to be king of his little country thing]]
Captain: *is angry* What did you say
Me: Never mind... erm... *pats Captain on back* Very fine job you've done... that there was the only unsatisfactory thing I've seen all week!

Scene six: Jealous- is handmaiden or lady-in-waiting the right term?s- Poison, and something I'll just have to hint at.
Captain: *hints at something*
Me: *slaps him*
Captain: *is angry*
Handmaiden: *for some reason thinks I'm an old lady in disguise?*
All sense in the plot: *goes on lunch break*
Captain: *hints again*
Me: *kicks him* Leave me alone, snake!
Captain: *is very angry, gives chase*
Me: *Runs in a very Eowynly manner*
Handmaiden: I'll reveal your ugliness, old lady in disguise! Bwahahaha!
Me: *just then remembers I wanted revenge for Murron*
Lady serving drinks in the hallways of the manner: *sings a sad, mournful tune for Murron*
Captain: *shoots lady serving drinks*
Me: *trips over chair in attempt to escape, lays sprawled on the floor and unable to move*
Handmaiden: *trips over other chair in attempt to catch me and prove I'm an old lady, lays sprawled on the floor and unable to move*
Captain: *evil laugh*
All sense in the plot: *comes back from lunch* Woah- what happened here? Better make it come full circle!
Captain: *pants, catches up with us*
Kind old lady: *walks up to me, as Handmaiden gets up. Flips me onto my back and gasps.* She'll need an ambulance... it looks like she got hurt falling down those stairs! [[I think I forgot to mention falling down stairs in an effort to escape.]]
Captain: *snorts* No, it's not that... I'll have you know I poisoned her earlier today!
Me: *is shocked*
Me: W... why?
Captain: Because, my poor little puffed-up popinjay, did it not occur to you that your guise could be easily popped? I know you are no envoy from Scotland inspecting my kingdom! You move, you speak, like royalty! You are something else. A princess? I must learn your true purpose, before you escape as you nearly did!
Me: *mouth and throat feel suddenly dry*
Captain: *in mocking tone* Are you thirsty?
Me: *nods, gasping, feeling the poison slowly work its way*
Captain: Good. Then the poison is starting to work... if you answer all my questions honestly, I may give you the antidote!
[[Note: Originally at this point Eomer appeared, and they had a discussion of how the poison is this crappy salt from Minas Tirith which deprives the body of water, but it made less sense than even this, because Eomer suddenly dissapeared... so I'm taking Eomer out.]]
Captain: *hears a bell* Ah... it's dinner!
Handmaiden: *drags me into a seat at dinner, and whispers all sorts of threats under her breath at me about what she'll do to me if she draws back the veil- yeah, I'm wearing a black veil, for Theodred- and discovers I'm some old lady*
Me:*confused*
Me: Why... did you poison me... so soon?
Captain: I knew you would be suspicious of a toast to me, on the final meal of the final day of your stay... so I chucked the salt in your lunch.
Me: *has to admit he's pretty darn smart.*
Dinner: *is over*
Me: *suddenly collapses*
Captain: Good...
Captain's dinner guests: *used to Captain murdering people, go about their buisiness*
Handmaiden and Captain: *drag me to the guest room I've been in*
Handmaiden: *draws back veil*
Me: *looks ready for a nice vambrace. Also happens to be beautiful.*
Captain: Aha... now... are you or are you not a princess?
Tolkien: *Was never too clear on that matter*
Theoden: *wasn't either*
Me: *decides I'm not.* No...
Captain: You lie. [[STOP! I keep stealing LOTR lines in my dreams! Hey wait... is the Captain Wormtongue as well as Captain from Braveheart, Captain Love from Mask of Zorro, the Usurper from A City in Winter, and Maarl from my roleplay 1673?]]
Captain: Where do you come from?
Me: *start to lose eyesight as well as tell truth* Rohan! *gasps in pain as water drained from body by crappy Minas Tirith salt*
Captain: Good...now we're getting some answers! Tell me now... why have you come?
Me: *lies again, finding memory of Murron both too painful and too prone to get her shot* I... I was captured! (well... it's sort of true)
Captain: *Seems content with my story, truly isn't* Now... can you see?
Me: N..no... am... am I dying?
Captain: You will be soon... heh.... place your hands on this and I will belive you are telling the truth.
Me: *has no idea what he's talking about... places hands on rounded, cold surface*
Captain: *dribbles antidote down my throat*
Me: *sight comes back... and is holding....

MURRON'S HEAD!*
Me: *Fights urge to kill Captain, not having the strength at the time, fights urge to puke, sheets too nice, fights urge to reveal why is really here, would leave her killed and therefore unable to fulfill purpose, [[Remember, it was to avenge Murron]] and fights urge to scream.*
Me: *Silent for a while...* You have a very sick mind, Captain.
Captain: *smirks, puts head back in bag, and warns me if he ever finds out I was lying then horrible things will happen*

Scene Seven: I Wake Up
Me: *is out of there as fast as can, back to Edoras...*
Me: *is followed*
Someone: *Calls me "my lady"
Captain: *Thinks he has proof I'm a princess*
Dream: *ends, will surely be continued*
Me: *Wasn't even able to avenge Murron!*

I have two new weeeiiiird dreams. Not sure if they top that Zero one, but they come pret-ty close!

1: It's a game of Jeopardy. Two old ladies from the 1920's are on the left, Alex Trebec (the Jeopardy guy) and an old lady are in the middle, and a dancing midget I know and a giant waffle are on the right... XD I think I woke up before I got to know who won.

2: I'm at school at night, and I walk into the science room. I'm talking to the teacher about something, and when I come out, I have an extra finger on my left hand. After a while it falls off, but then later on it grows back. There was also this weird little red moth I had to catch or else I'd get a bad grade on my science fair project...

Zero in my bed, giant waffles in Jeopardy, and extra fingers with moths... One can only wonder what my odd mind will think of next! ^___^

Tue Oct 19, 2004 7:09 am

I've had too many weird dreams... I could probably write a short book on all of the oddball dreams I've had..

I'll list 2 for now though.. these are ones that I'll never forget (for the most part)...

1:
I dreamt that I was outside and this big muscular guy in a loin cloth with sabertooth like teeth came and wanted to pick a fight with me.
So to get away from him I transformed myself into a little ant.
But suddenly the guy turns himself into an ant and starts chasing me.
So.. I turn myself into a bird and try to fly away, but of course he does the same.
So.. I turn myself into a griffon which he also turns himself into.
He's pursuing me and suddenly we're in this movie theater flying towards the screen but not actually moving towards it.
And then all of a sudden this evil sorta typical looking 3-D wizard appears on the screen and starts shooting lazers at us. I avoid them but the sabertooth guy gets hit... and yeah.. I ended up waking up.
It was a very neat dream though b/c I half knew I was dreaming and that's why I could change myself into those animals.

2:
This is by far one of the scariest dream I've ever had. I'll explain a little before I get into the dream.
When I was little... if I was having a nightmare, in the dream I would shut my eyes really tight and for some reason it would always wake me up.
So now.. onto the dream!
I dreamt that I was being chased by some random monster I can't remember right now (me be sleepy).
So what did I do? I did my old technique of shutting my eyes tight to wake myself up.
BUT when I did shut my eyes.. it transported me into another nightmare where I was cornered in an alleyway with this demonic zombie clown trying to kill me, with the police in the background trying to save me.
In THAT dream.. I'd open my eyes and it would just take me right back to the nightmare I was in before.
I tryed a few more times with shutting my eyes but it just kept switching me until finally it did work and I woke up.

Now.. it's very neat to think about it, but boy did it scare me then.

I had a dream a few days ago. There was this guy who kept killing all our friends, neighbors and almost my dog. He walked into our house with a mace...all of us were near our back door, and swung the mace near me. I quickly grabbed the handle, and swung it into my room. I remember my quote: "I think it hit my TV. Hey, dude with the beard! You're paying for it. Your mace, your money."

Then, of course, there's the dream when I met Whitley from A Different World and we danced with Chaka Khan. Just kidding! I wish I had a dream like that. But I only recently started watching ADW again.

I have a lot of dreams about my teeth falling out or becoming crooked. It's really quite horrible. I always get very panicked in those dreams. I heard somewhere that dreaming about that means you're really concerned with your appearance.

I have dreams about my teeth rotting/falling out as well.
I don't ever remember reading that it means you're concerned about your appearance though. *shrugs*
Who knows..

A few weeks ago I dreamed that my boyfriend was a lionfish who talked with his ghost brother who was killed by hitmen. Yeah, there was a lot more to the dream, but I don't really remember it all.

Sat Oct 23, 2004 2:35 am

The one I have most often:
I'm in the back seat of a car, one of my aunts is usually driving it, and all of the sudden there is this big rollor-coaster like track in front of us. And I keep yelling and screaming and telling her to stop the car, I don't want to drive over the track, but she yells at me for being afraid. When the car drives over it, we get shot up to the top of the track, and then I wake up.

The one that freaked me out :

I was, once again, in the back seat of a car, but this time it was being driven by my dad. My brother was in the passenger seat. Worst of all, I could see in the rear-view mirror, I had turned into a clown. I kept asking my brother and dad, "Is this a dream?" and they kept saying "no, no, of COURSE not". Finally I gave up on that and started yelling that all I wanted to do was wake up. I kept doing everything I could to wake up, blinking hard and pinching myslef, just wanting to wake up so badly. Finally, it happened.

The one that I had while I started hyperventilating in my sleep:

In this dream I was just lying in bed. Then all of the sudden, I was being attacked by (this is what happens when you play Neopets too much) Island Wockies (and some other species of Island pets) and Health Shrooms. They just kept pouncing on me...When I finally woke up, I felt odd, and my breathing was off...

Ditto on that. I can remember what several recent dreams were about though...

- Simple Plan concert that involved me standing on stage with them as they performed.
- A horribly evil yet amusing dream involving a variety of different scenes, places, and people I know [friends, even real life annoying people who played as the "annoying character"] throughout the course of my dream.
- A dream involving Lulu from FF X being my friend.
