List #450: Elements from my dreams last night

List #450: Elements from my dreams last night

1: Dream one

• My comic shop added some big screen TVs and a huge heroclix display, but were out of all of my comics and had a clueless new worker

2. Next Dream

• I was making cookies for a recipe that was my friend Tom's
• His picture was on the back of the torn open tortilla chip bag, as was the recipe itself
• There was enough melted butter and eggs in the recipe to fill a large metal bowl with a yell0w-orange soup of fat and cholestrerol
• I was not sure if I had enough flour and other dry goods

3. The Final Dream

• I was one of my students (who is on Mock Trial)
• I had committed some sort of crime and had been arrested (which was a part of the dream now lost to all but Morpheus)
• I was being transported in a helicopter to prison
• Other prisoners made a fuss and the helicopter had to stop in mid air
• I had a piece of rope like the ones we used to practice tying climbing knots
• I used the rope to dangle down from the helicopter and escape while the guard was busy
• I landed right in front of my old house in the West End
• The radio said it was going to be a big storm, I ran into Lincoln Park and the trees were all whipping around.
• I kept running through the neighborhoods and passed a seemingly empty machine shop, but it wasn't empty and the guy in there yelled at me so I kept running
• I ducked down an alley and ran through the "West Hillside Women's Athletics Museum." It had a green logo.
• There was a gated wall on the south west side. My land lord came through. I knew the jig was up as he told me to turn my self in
• The police surrounded me. They told me that they could let me give my roommate a hug for being the only person to ever be nice to me, but that they weren't going to
• Then I cried because I was going to be locked up for ever
• Then I woke up

List #108: Recurring dreams that I have had

List #108: Recurring dreams (or thematic elements in dreams) that I have had.

1. Tiger walking down stairs of old house while I read a book on the floor
1b. said Tiger lured into ketchen and trapped in a box
1c. Lion walking down the stairs of old house while I read a book on the floor

2. Dreams of being trapped in the Mall of America, but it's labyrinthine, dark and represents hell (there are also occasionally also Mafiosi trying to kill me). There are no exits, and it is not crowded. There is a parking lot.

3. Being able to jump and hover (not fly, just glide and hover a foot or so off of the ground). (probably the most common)

4. Driving a car without a license or knowledge of how to drive and desperately wanting to not be driving but then the police come (and then I wake up). This one I'm often in my underwear as well.

5. Skiing and hitting a jump and flying upward out of control far higher than I should (and usually waking up just after beginning to come back down (this is my equivalent of a "falling" dream... I just "fall" upward)).

6. Another recurring theme that won't be mentioned here

7. Large aquatic creatures (orca, kraken/squid) attacking family members.

8. Teeth loosening and falling out, often filling my mouth and spilling out uncontrollably (sometimes with a lot of blood)
