I still have that dream quite frequently. Gotta love the capriciousness of the subconscious.

Sep. 11th, 2007 12:29 pmI've been suffering from a strange pattern of dreams lately. It's almost comically stereotypical. I'm having the "it's the day before an exam, and you haven't studied!"
It's pretty annoying, to be honest. The dreams make me wake up in a very stressed and anxious state, which I get enough of at work/home. Feh.

Odd day in TBG's dreamscape. Well, sequence of days. All last night, but it seemed to go on forever.
It was an oddly mixed dream last night that seemed to go on fairly coherently. It had two plots or threads or tracks or whatever they have. The first one was me and the woman who messed me up apparently meeting for lunch on a fairly regular basis in what looked like an idealized Paris, with cobblestone streets and narrow alleys. The other was that I was investigating some kind of organized crime family (you knew they were criminals because Tony Soprano was there) who disposed of informants by freezing them, wrapping them in plastic wrap, and cutting their heads off with an axe.
So. Messed up old romances going on like nothing's the matter, and mobsters cutting apart frozen corpses with an axe. I guess I was really messed up by last night's Survivor finale.

Oneupmanship

Feb. 12th, 2007 11:45 amMessed up dreams? This should count.
Okay, I was visiting![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
anidada and nottheterritory at their place, only it was located on the other side of Yonge, and it was on Bloor st, but it was the same house. I was on my way out and they were ordering a pizza, and pizza always cost $4.99 because Brian Mulroney had ordered it be so. Anyway, as I was heading out, I remind A&N that it would be a good idea if they put their guns away, as there were several holdstered handguns scattered around the house.
And that's why I hate sleeping deep enough to dream.

A dream or WTF?
Feb. 20th, 2005 10:57 amDreamed last night I was moving around Ottawa, getting my stuff together to go to Carleton, but I was doing it NOW. In the meantime, I was skipping classes and fearing I was going to fail them.
Jesus, I went through that ONCE already, not again! The classes were English, Military History/Law, and something else, possibly economics. People I've known over the past 15 years kept wandering in and offstage. Snra was there, as were the cats.
The problem was I kept waking up, and the dreams would start again. What the FUCK?
In addition, I slept in so I missed the Smart Parade. Fuck!
edit: Perhaps overindulgence at Lobstercon last night may have contributed. I cannot say for certain.

Odd dreams
Feb. 16th, 2005 11:28 amHad a strange dream last night (apparently I was shouting during it) where I bought an old house in Napanee (near my parents house, where there are NO old houses). It bore a resemblance to nothing so much as the Addams Family mansion.
As I was cleaning up the place, I noticed voices. I got closer to a vent, and saw a speaker lodged in it. But the speaker wasn't plugged into anything!
Anyway, as it progressed, it turned out the house was haunted by the spirits of a couple dozen schoolgirls.
Yes, it sounds just a little like a Derwin Mak story, but what are you gonna do?
It was a weird dream, but not a nightmare. So that's good.

Last night, I dreamed I was somewhere in the southern US, on a business trip. I came to a diner, where I found that Pauly Shore was projecting his new film, Pauly Shore is Dead (okay, not THAT new, but it hardly had a wide release, did it?) on the side of a barn next door, while people watched from inside the diner.
I believe at one point I confessed that I did, indeed, enjoy Son in Law.
Really, I don't think there's any shame in that. SIL was an enjoyable film, at the very least. Sure, I didn't love it as much as most of the Feelm Gohds out there hate pretty much everything, but I enjoyed watching it. The beer helped.
And, you know, Lane Smith makes everything better.
I think the fact I never had to see Shore outside of anything other than SIL and 8 minutes of Encino Man helped me retain a sense of perspective. I will continue saying that until the day I die.
Please alertmr_weasel to this fact.

mr_weasel to this fact.The general context of the dream is vague, and lost to me.
One specific remains: Bao Dur, a character from Knights of the Old Republic 2, joined the crew of the Red Dwarf. His artificial limb (which is an upper arm prosthesis and a hand connected by a force field, and looks spiffy in game, and makes you wonder why prosthetics devolved so in the period between Old Republic and the movies) was represented by a large, inflatable piece of clear plastic.
Inside was the actor's arm, with two flourescent bulbs strapped to it. He occasionally had to stop to re-inflate the arm. This was most annoying during the song and dance numbers.
Too much red pepper flakes on my spaghetti last night, I suspect.

I had a dream
Mar. 30th, 2003 11:58 amOkay, it's relatively mundane, but here you go.
etherlad was working on one or another of his White Wolf fan projects, with the assistance of film star Crispin Glover(aka the creepy one).
I suspect that may be because of the sheer volume of temporary brain space he's been getting because of his Willard film.
Anyway, there was a scene where I was in Kingston andetherlad had posted something about Trinity authors.
Flash.
I'm in Kingston with KHG, and he starts talking about Smees, the old game shop that went under. And I listen to him for a couple minutes and then grab him by his lapels, hurl him against a building and say "No! Don't you understand? Smees went out of business in late 1999! THE NEXT YEAR, Michael Wibberly opened The Kingston Gaming Nexus! What this means is..."
And at THAT moment, before my subconsciousness could hurl some horrifying bit of knowledge of wisdom at me, the cat broke a plate upstairs and woke me up.
The end.

Feb. 14th, 2003 02:41 pmAnother fucking sick day. I've got mucus in every head hole.
On the plus side, I picked up Astro City Local Heroes today. Damn fine book. I"m gonna buy Kurt a beer next time I see him.
Heh. Bumped into Kurt Busiek at San Diego Comic Con a few years ago. It was a bit of a thrill, since he was the reason I started reading comics again (Astro City & his run on Avengers). I caught him as he was leaving hte booth and gave him the standard "you're the reason I've gotten back into reading comics." I figure he gets that all the time.
Got GI Joe 14, which is slowly dropping off of my pull list. The nostalgia isn't worth $10 a month (especially for the less than thrilling art in the Hama book, or his nicer than nice attempt to play "those firemen, they're the real heroes".
Generations 3 is interesting; they're flashing forward a century at a time; Earth just got destroyed at the end of #2.
Byrne's original series' were interesting, and I hope he can keep it up for 12 issues of this. Can't wait to get to the Legion (we got Saturn Girl in issue #1, and it looks fairly standard silver age Legion).
Interesting dream last night. Don't remember anything, but I know I was talking to Cindy in it and she said SOMETHING, and I replied "why do you say that?"
Now, the interesting thing is I'd woken up because of my cold, and while it was the Dream Cindy who'd said something, I asked it of the actual wife.
Yes, odd.
Now, I go upstairs, drink Neo Citran, and sleep on couch until wife calls.

A Conversation in a Dream
Feb. 9th, 2002 01:28 amI had a dream too. I was talking over stuff with Gene Hackman. I mentioned how much I liked the Superman movies (the first two, anyway).
He snapped at me "you don't have to tell ME about the fucking Superman movies". Guy's got issues.
