Cranfest

Dreamt it was cranfest and very very busy in town. I spotted jq and slowly and awkwardly tried to watch him see where he's go so I could try to meet him. Lost him in the crowd but then saw gvf. They had their own booth that was set up like a bar. One of them was sitting at the bar facing towards the booth. I didn't stop or anything. Then I saw kv. Got excited. Decided I didn't want to meet him but did want to ogle. Followed a long distance away just to see him. Tried to be loud at one point to get his attention but not towards him or something. Woke up eventually.  

Before this I dreamt I was with a group of people (I think some I knew, like my sister and husband etc) and we were captured by some bad guys somewhere right in warrens at the park. Somehow we managed to escape and ran into the crowds of people at the festival. 

Gas Station

Dreamt I was with husband and we were at the warrens mall (gas station) set up like it was in the 90s/early 2000s. He and I were in the VHS area and I overheard someone saying an ex's last name. I had an inkling it was him, and when we left the VHS rental section, I saw my ex with his kids at the counter buying something. Husband and I were wandering and aisle so I was kind of ducking so I wouldn't be noticed. Woke up. 

Phone Call

Had a nightmare. First, I dreamt that my sister told me that she didn't like her neighbor anymore. Immediately I assumed the younger family because of political differences or because their dog nipped at the moment in the family a few weeks ago. Instead, Sarah tells me that it's the elderly lady that she doesn't like. I asked why and I can't remember what the reason was... Anyways, then I dreamt that my front top-right tooth broke in half or cracked. Almost like when a baby tooth is about to fall off; it's hanging on for dear life, except it was hanging on in the middle. I was terrified, and Devin had to go to work, so he couldn't take me right then and there to my dentist. I figured I'd just call and see when I could get in and worry about the how later. I tried calling my dentist but it wouldn't go through fully. It'd take me to an automated thing and talk about a second location in Appleton. I hung up.. but then a weird number called me that had 'mom' in the title. When I answered, it was a scary horror-movie-voice threat. I was confused but also starting to get worried for my mom. I was thinking that maybe the neighbor took my mom or her phone and was using it. 

Right before I woke up, I dreamt I was in Warrens again, at the gas station/'Warrens mall'. I was walking around the gas station, towards the post office. There was this kid that looked like a vampire that was selling a bunch of vampire-y objects. I grabbed a goosebumps book. That's all I remember. 

Tornadoes

Me, husband, my sister, aunt, mom, kids maybe, and husband's sister or mom are all at warrens mall. (A gas station). It seems so nice out. There's a school bus stopped off to the side near post office road. The kids and husband all get out and I'm watching my daughter wander through this crowd of children and it's hard to tell her apart because a LOT of the girls have tie dye pink and purple on similar to what my daughters wearing. I ask my sister in law if it's a common color for kids nowadays because I'm astounded I can't tell her apart.  Eventually I see her. Anyways now we're driving. I don't know if I have kids in car or if they stayed back at the gas station with husband, but he is definitely not in car. We are driving and get five miles out of town, going towards tomah, and I look out my window and see several long, skinny tornadoes off in the distance. I immediately tell everyone in car and try to call my husband. It doesn't go through. I tell my sister we also need to call Dad and warn him because he doesn't have a basement. Sister says she'll try to get a hold of Dad, so I try calling husband again. Finally I get a hold of him. I tell him frantically what's going on and that it's headed his way. As I'm telling him that I see we are passing ANOTHER tornado that looks even deadlier and honestly really, really close to us. We are just about to get into Tomah. We're all freaking out now. We hear a loud sound and see it's a red airplane coming down, and it's aimed straight for a building near our road, aimed to hit just as we're passing the building. We pass, it hits, explosions go off everywhere, and I wake up. 

Console TV

Don't remember much but what I do remember:

Tried to get the console TV at my old childhood home to work, kept trying to move around dials and check cords to get random shoes to play. Couldn't really seem to get anything to work. 

Another thing I remember is seeing Adam Sandler in a movie but he was like trying to lift a skirt of some lady to expose her butt/underwear. 

Aladdin

Miscellaneous stuff here happening and different settings but this is the gist. 

I remember Pauline W or Sheri W or maybe both were in my dream. Maybe hanging out with my look mom? Then husband and I were walking through what looked like cranfest. I see a few dresses of mine hanging up on a rack as I'm walking past and assume my mom took some of my clothes to sell there, so I stop and tell my husband. I think his mom is with us? I have a cart with a child in it and I find a dress I want to wear for a wedding, so I go to check out. I see my cousin Mel is the one selling stuff, so I chat with her a bit as she's ringing up the dress. There's a guy behind me waiting, so I awkwardly try to move my cart and myself out of his way so he can pay... Now the location changed. I'm at my childhood home. Suddenly I'm half naked (I think wearing just underwear and bra?) and my husband and his mom are there. I'm grabbing my dress I bought and quickly walk into the middle bedroom and try to shut the door, but it won't shut right and stays open. Someone is knocking on the house door, so husband and his mom are letting me know someone is here and I'm letting them know what I'm doing and will be out soon. I get the dress on and suddenly stuff changes again.tube  Now I'm in a desert. A Ghost song is playing and I'm wearing this dress and husband is wearing some Aladdin outfit and we're on some camel looking thing, but it's going really fast and even go in the air at some point. Finally we stop and I see the door to the bedroom just sitting in the sand. I can hear husband's mom and the visitor at my childhood home knocking/asking us if we're coming out, so we try to leave and go through the door but the door is suddenly a tight inflatable tube/floatie and my husband gets stuck. I think I was carrying MIL's dog Coal at this point, too.  I might have woken up as we're just about to get him out. Woke up to my heart racing. Been feeling really high anxiety since I woke up previous to this dream to let my dog out. Also in the dream but not sure where in it, I also dreamt I was looking at these homemade soaps in a box, but I wasn't sure who made them when my MIL asked, so I said it's probably either SIL that made them or my friend Heather who bought them from a friend's small business because that's something she'd do. Eventually I figured out it was a mix of both. 

Boxes

Dreamt I was at Warrens mall and my husband and I left a couple small boxes of papers and pictures and schoolwork of the kids' there. I ran in thinking it's probably closed because barely anyone was there and it was dark. Saw my cousin Mel and I told her we accidentally left the boxes and that my daughter's phone was in there. She found the phone in the boxes and I started to explain proof of how I know it's ours (messages etc), she opened the camera and saw photos of daughte or random ones of family etc, so she said she believed me. She handed it back over. That's all I remember of my dream! 

Dead Horses

Dreamt my daughter had gotten the start of her period. I had to find her a pad. We were at my dad's house, but I think it was my husband's and my house in the dream. Also dreamt that the house was kind of messy - this was just some weird house, nothing I know of. And I was trying to clean up and look for my water bucket for plants. Before this I remember now: my mom stopped by and told me they couldn't take care of their chicken (they don't really have one - they live in town) - Ifirst asked if Dad could watch it since he has some but they didn't listen and just started moving stuff around. Mom carried this huge cage that had two dead horses in it... So weird... I was thinking in my head why do we have to take care of your animal of we can't even remember to take care of our own? Okay so she plops the chicken down next to Dad's door (now my door) and I realize it's winter and this poor chicken will want to stay warm, so I grab these bulky warming lamp that was by the horses, and an even bulkier plug in for it. I try to plug it in but the adapter is soooooo weird and humongous and moves around like fricken transformers. I have to slide it around so it fits right into dad's plug in up above his door. Then I noticed my mom is also dropping off a huge, fancy, probably handmad table and chairs off. She tells me it's "the Allen's" and now that I'm out of my dream I realize that this is their neighbors, but inside the dream I had no idea who or where these Allen's were.. she had to get me to explain all the places/people dad ever took me to in the area and she kept saying no, not there. I dunno. Anyways I had to find a place for a bunch of these things she was getting rid of. End tables (I put the chicken cage on top and sat it next to the door) and a bunch of plants.) THIS is why I was searching for a watering can. I had to place them around the outside of the house so it looked nice. First though to get upstairs from the door I had to maneuver some things about the house around because of where the chicken was, so I moved things around like Legos to fit some stairs into the house. Unfortunately I realized later that I put the dumbest, hardest to crawl through kind of stairs/almost like a ventilation system as soon as you go through the front door, so I had to make note to fix that later. When I get up there to the second floor, my mom, aunt, and sister are up there and they give me a bah of old candy they didn't want anymore. After that, I realize I need the watering can to water the plants they gave me. The house was a mess and there was furniture everywhere. I remembered seeing the watering can under a desk but there are so many desks so I have to go through a bunch to find the right one. I'm kind of in my own house now set up-wise. I ended up finding it, and kind of picking up dishes along the way.. I think I woke up at this point. 

Vintage Car

Dreamt I was at my aunt Erin's old house. (Her house was on my dad's property, to explain the next part..) Some of my cousins on my dad's side of the family were there. My dad had gone somewhere and asked us all to feed his animals (he owns rabbits and chickens in waking life). My cousin Mike tells us he wants to look at his brother's vintage car he just bought. All of us start walking around the property looking for this car. At some point I remember wiping my face with my hand and getting peanut butter on my mouth. Suddenly my mouth felt numb and swollen, although it apparently looked fine.

Scarlet and I

I dreamt I was walking through my childhood hometown. I don't remember much, but it seems like there was something big and scary up in the sky. Don't quote me on this, but the best mental image I can come up with is Godzilla-like. I don't remember for sure, though. I also don't remember much of what happened. I was with some people, and it seems like we were looking for others or some thing.


Scarlet woke up saying "I want to play a game, Daddy." I don't know if she dreamt this or if she just woke up fast, but she said it as she was opening her eyes, so I figured I'd write it down.

Blood Clot

Dreamt there was a pain in my left side, under my rib cage. The pain kept moving higher and higher. I was still living with my parents and was in the kitchen when I yelled for them to take me to the hospital. They slowly carried me to the hospital (in reality this hospital is a half hour drive away because my childhood home was metaphorically in Timbuktu, but they were carrying me the whole way on foot). At some point Devin takes place of them, and just like in my waking life, he stops and chats with people during important times. In this case, while I'm dying. Anyways, finally we get to my doctor and she ends up being the midwife that helped me deliver my daughter. While telling her what's wrong with me and begging her to get this clot out, she tells me that just getting it out won't work. She tells me she would have to put something in me (she calls it a 'lean-to' but I assume she's talking about a 'stent' or something.) I throw all of these kids' toys off of a table (similar toys of my daughter's, similar table I own), and lay onto it, begging her to hurry, because I am afraid I'm going to die any minute. Suddenly the left side of my face goes numb. I try to smile but can't on that side. Right before she puts me under, I ask her to give me a toy of my daughter's that was on the floor for good luck. I start to become half-asleep and think to myself that if I turn onto my back (or on my right side, I don't remember), then my arm and face, etc, will stop feeling so numb. Also while being worked on, my 'dream-within-a-dream' was of Stevie Nicks playing piano in a room that had a very '70s-'80s trailer vibe.

Oh good lord, someone give me better handwriting..

I can't read my own handwriting.. So this is a bit jumbled and confusing.


Dreamt Zig still alive. (He's my dog that we had to put down this past spring. Rough year..)

I'm at my Dad's and I head down the driveway with Ziggy to go get the mail. I tell my mom where I am headed and say something like "I wish that dumbass wouldn't have taken my dog." -- My mom assumes I'm talking about my ex, but for some reason I am talking about his brother. (Okay, I don't understand this part at all. No association between any of my animals to my ex or his brother. Anyways..)

Zig is good until a Winnebago comes around the curve of the road. I push him towards the driveway/house, and he runs back up. I grab the mail and apparently my mom followed, because she starts talking to the people in the Winnebago. I think maybe the person in the Winnebago is an old park manager where I used to work. She asks someone how "Karen" is. The mail I grabbed wasn't mail, mementos. I remember seeing a picture/card that says "If/when I die" and on the back is my handwriting in gold, written to my sister. There were also pictures of my mom and aunt when they were little, my great uncle Walt, etc..


Before all of this I dreamt I was back in high school. I was wearing this black dress that was too short. I was a new girl - again - lame. I am looking for a bathroom and find one in a locker room. The bathroom was humongous, had many stalls. I leave the bathroom and there is a long line forming, so I get in line to wait my turn. Because I'm a moron.


Also dreamt I was getting food at Hu Hot (the best restaurant ever), but it was set in a house.

Prom.

Dreamt I was still in school and there was a dance coming up that night. I was in Warrens searching for all the people I was to go there with. My aunt (apparently she was going) told me to meet her with everyone else at some ice cream shop in town. I couldn't find a few people and when I found my friend, she said she didn't want to go anymore because she didn't have a boyfriend. I told her I didn't either so it would be fine, but she still wouldn't go. I spent the rest of the night searching for everyone else. It was raining, getting darker. I was upset and pissed.

Before this I was playing with my daughter at my dad's by his pond. She had this doll house that was like little apartments. You could open small doors in the back and each apartment had something unique to play with. (A table, a bath tub, a couch, etc..) I was also hopping from one outdoor furniture to the next fearing any snakes that might be on the ground.

Lots Of Tongue

Okay, I might have been going through major sleep paralysis in the first bit of my dream. I know it was lightning and down-pouring, I remember looking out the window. (In my waking life, it was actually storming that night, so maybe it was projecting into my dreams..) I was in the process of awakening, but couldn't move. I remember trying to yell to Devin, who was beside me in bed, "Wake me up! Wake me up!" I felt like I couldn't do it myself, and I could only whisper through my lips. I could hear myself, in my dream, yelling, and myself, outside of my dream, whispering. It was eerie. Finally Devin rolls over, tells me I'm fine, and goes back to bed. Eventually I finally awake completely, but right beforehand I felt someone touch my left hand. I was freaking out thinking a ghost tapped my hand. I couldn't sleep for awhile after that, so I wrote down what happened.

Finally I went back to sleep, and I dreamt that I was visiting my dad and he told me he read my dream blog, about some dream where I was kissing a Quin Twin with "lots of tongue". I was blushing in my dream, embarrassed that he read my blog, but in my waking life I have seriously never dreamt about kissing either twin with 'lots of tongue', or any tongue for that matter - god dammit. :( That was a weird dream, too. The next part I wrote down I don't remember the details, just that my dad's workplace was making a documentary. Then I'm walking to my childhood home. I get to the back porch, and enter the utility room. There are dog beds in the closet area of the utility room, and my dog Bear and Ziggy are there, along with two dogs, Wyatt and Tuffy, whom have passed away in my waking life. I remember my dog Bear kept wanting to bite Tuffy. Tuffy was a fat dachshund, so he was a small little guy compared to Bear's St. Bernard/Lab mix. I was really scared Bear would tear Tuffy to shreds, so I kept forcing myself between them to protect Tuffy. At some point, Bear quit bothering him, so I walked to the living room and looked out the door. It was raining really hard and then these fish the size of big northerns started falling to the ground along with the rain. I got scared and backed away from the door. Then I went back to the utility room and instead of the dogs there, my boyfriend's sister Cherish and her boyfriend Monte were there sitting on a couch (in the utility room, I don't know why). I decided to call Devin, my boyfriend, to see where he was and I heard a little kid's voice in the background. I joked about hearing a kid and tease him about cheating on me and having a family started with some other woman. He got quiet and really defensive then. I bawled, realizing it was true. Cherish gets mad at Devin for what he did, but I leave the house and hang up on him. I decided to walk into the woods, towards the road. I call my aunt Erin and tell her what happened. Then I hang up again and walk some more in the woods. I meet up with Sara Quin and strangely we seem to be in a relationship or something. It doesn't last for long, though. First, Devin's cousin Trevor starts chasing us in the woods. Then, I project out of my body and some woman is taking the place as Sara's girlfriend/the one getting chased. I'm just a third wheel trying to help them get to safety. Eventually we get to the road. It's autumn, cold, rainy. Leaves are falling from the painted-orange trees. A car pulls up and I look over at the other two and think "We're safe." They have the same look to them. Then a guy gets out and he looks like Taylor Handley (again, I had to look this guy up. I've only seen him in one thing, and it was Dawson's Creek a few years ago. It's strange how the brain stores hidden, insignificant information and visuals.) When I saw him exit the car and tell us to get in, I thought, "Great. Just like in the movies, he's supposed to be my knight in shining armor." I don't know why I thought that, but he smiled arrogantly, so it just got worse from there. The guy chasing us was closing in, and although I was thinking over whether I wanted to deal with this guy or the one chasing me, I eventually got in the car with Sara and her new girlfriend.

At some point in this dream, I actually remembered dreaming about the denim clothes that I wrote in this blog. I think writing these dreams down for so long is starting to make the memory of my waking life better.

Don't Fear The Reaper.

Dreamt I was on my parents' property just near the outskirts, close to the neighbor's cranberry marsh. My sister and I were being chased by this angry bear and we were running towards this truck. I see an asian woman on the other side of the truck and I yell to her about the bear. I see that her truck is smashed in through the windshield, so my sister and I crawl in that way and the asian woman follows. She takes her time getting around the car and as I try to pull her in through the windshield and the bear is getting closer, I appear next to my parents' house, so I don't know what happened to her. There was a guy that was standing near me and and he told me that Death has been watching me and following me. I kind of freaked out and ran into the house, thinking I was going to die or something. Then I freaked out even more when this other guy flew into the house. He had these black wings with purple smoke emitting off the wings and he was wearing all black.. I was terrified. I thought he was going to kill me and I asked him if I was going to die. He said, "Not if you'll let me help you." Then he pointed to my stomach and told me that a while ago I had a baby but lost it and that he needed to get rid of it because it was still inside of me and killing me. He took out this sack of seashells and put them in his hand. He told me to take it and it'll help with the pain. I asked him if I had to take one or the whole handful, and he laughed and told me to just take one. So I ate it and he laid me down on the floor and cut me open and pulled out my stomach and produced these tiny things that looked like Jelly Bellies. When I saw the jelly bellies I knew there was always something wrong with my digestion, and seeing this confirmed it. Then my sister Sarah came in and I told her what was going on and I showed her the incision, though I wasn't looking, and she freaked out and told me I was losing a lot of blood. Then all I see is her in the room, narrating the whole thing and showing pictures of our childhood and how much of a good sister I was to her. As if I died.

Stray Cats

Dreamt I was editing a video that was in black and white. Then I was walking around in the town I grew up in (Warrens) and I ran into an old crush. He ended up giving me a kiss on the cheek and I felt that I was cheating on Devin by him kissing my cheek, so I hid from Devin in Wal-Mart. I was crouching down behind racks ofclothes and everything.. Then somehow I get to "the upstairs" in Wal-Mart (I never saw a Wal-Mart with an upstairs, but ooookay ) and climbed out a window and saw "my husband's" car. Suddenly I'm married? I don't know. I watched the movie My Cousin Vinny that morning, so the car was the burgundy one and the "husband" was a young Joe Pesci. I walked across the roof of Wal-Mart and into another window and ended up in an apartment. It was christmas. There was a tree up, ornaments, presents, stockings, even a fireplace. It felt homey. I looked out the window again and it was pouring outside (rain, not snow) and there were stray cats all over the place trying to get into the house any way they could.

Deja Vu

These are two old dreams that I remembered suddenly when I was in bed. I had to write them down in case I hadn't written them down before, so here are some very brief dreams:


The first one I remember was being at Cranfest, a festival in the town I grew up in, and I was with a bunch of other women. We were wearing old-time clothes and looking at all kinds of gowns. I remember I found this cute pair of shoes..



The second one I remember being with my family and we were in this desert/dirt mound. Rock cliffs keeping us from being able to go anywhere. I remember a queen or princess had an important part in the dream. We were all trying to save her or something.

Hand Holding.

Dreamt I was with my aunt Erin and we were in this golf cart-like car. We are driving down a road and we see my cousin Mark. Erin yells at him and he drives closer towards us so he can hear what Erin is yelling at him about. The cars are so strange. They are both opened up. With Mark in front of us, but really close, I was able to pet the dog he had in his car while Erin and Mark had a conversation.


Then I'm in the field where they do the fireworks in Warrens and it's Cranfest season. There are tents all over the place. I'm holding this little boy's hand and I have a carving knife in my other hand. The little boy is holding a flashlight. A bunch of people are with us and we all have kids holding our hands and we're trying to find their parents. This kid and I are looking for his parents but also trying to hide from this killer nearby. I see a couple that my boyfriend doesn't get along with and notice the guy isn't holding any kids' hands. I yell at another couple, who look just like them, that he isn't watching any kids. He gets in trouble.

10/4/10 - Oh, I Thought You Meant Age.

I dreamt I was in the car with Anna in the passenger seat. She tells me matter-of-factly that she knows what "age" I was when we became friends. So I ask her what age I was, and she responds, "8:00". I get confused for a second, and then I brush it off by saying, "Oh, I thought you meant AGE."

I also dreamt I was at the Warrens Mall and I bought these purple/green checkered suspenders and I was looking for a mug to get my dad for christmas.


Woke up wishing I could have been able to actually own those suspenders.

3/24/10 - The Caterpillar Neighbor.

Posted 24 March 2010 - 11:34 PM

Woke up with my dream forgotten. Here's an older one I posted in a message board sometime in the beginning of this year (actually, it was the day before I saw Tegan and Sara in concert. Yep :) ):


This morning I dreamt that I was at my parent's old house (my grandma, when she was alive, was our neighbor) and I was in the driveway (it's a long, winding, dirt road). Anyways, I was with my grandma and we were both standing (which is really amazing, because her legs were amputated before I was born) and our hands were on our hips and we were just looking around the place. All of a sudden I look over and see this long wall-hedge thing that we never had in real life, and beyond that was another house. All of a sudden, and I shit you not, a man that resembled a human-size caterpillar (he was green) and he was mowing his lawn! (I'm sure this had to do with watching the awesomely bad movie Slither - I love that movie - a few days ago). Anyways, weirder yet, for some reason I knew he was of mexican decent, and I don't believe we have any mexicans in our family that I know of, but I could see his face really well and it wasn't caterpillar-like, it was a human face. It was almost as if the man was wearing a costume, because surrounding his face, like a hood, was the top part of the caterpillar. Anyways, I asked her, "Isn't that your cousin?" or something like that, and she said "Yep." All matter-of-factly.


It was so weird.

Caterpillar

• To see a caterpillar in your dream, signifies a stage in your own personal growth and development where you are on your way, but have not yet reached your goal.

Neighbor

• To dream of having a good neighbor, signifies enjoyment and tranquility at home.
