Zombie-Alien Dream in a Dream

Notes: So usually my boyfriend wants to have nothing to do with my dreams. Last time I told him one of them, he declared me insane and told me to stop telling him my crazy dreams. Well, last night, I guess he wanted to test out the Bleu Cheese dream theory (as in, he heard bleu cheese makes for crazy dreams). I happily obliged! And I dunno if he had any crazy ones, but here's mine. Also, this dream "felt" really intense and in the dream I felt scared - especially at the beginning, but my dreams don't actually scare me anymore. Foods Eaten: Buffalo Wings with lots of Bleu Cheese Dream Location: Boyfriend's House... elsewhere The Dream: I was in my boyfriend's basement, with him and someone else (no clue who it was) . My boyfriend and I were curled up together on his couch, watching X-files. It was an episode about aliens living on earth, and the government's conspiracy theory to destroy them. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, it shocked all o...

Birthday Pool Party at a Lake with Danishes on Top

Notes: Pretty sure Mac n' Cheese is the cause of some of my weirdest and longest dreams. And if your curious about why I dream so specifically of Pomeranian dogs, I really want one, but parents nor boyfriend will let me keep one at their house right now... I clearly enjoy dreaming about them though. Foods Eaten: Mac n' Cheese Dream Location: At a hotel or apartment complex that was right on a very large lake. (The place seemed familiar... but I can't identify it) The Dream: I was in either an upscale hotel room or an apartment/condo. All the furniture was very fancy, there was a balcony outside, and the outer most walls were lined with windows and elegant white curtains. The carpet was a plush white, and my cat, Cinnamon, plus a Pomeranian puppy were sitting on it, along with two other dogs (that I now can't identify in my awake state) . The puppy was calm at first, but then bounced up and bolted into the other room. I called, "Pom Pom!" and it came r...

Milkshakes

Notes: Don't remember a lot of this one, just some random bits and pieces. Foods Eaten: Orange Chicken Dream Location: Coworker's house, Inside a Car The Dream: I was inside my coworker, Dan's, house (I've never actually been there) . I was sneaking around the downstairs rooms, when I ran straight into Dan. My sister was also standing with him. I don't remember if we exchanged any words, I just remember getting into a car with Dan driving and my sister in the back seat. We went to get milkshakes from a drive-thru... Yeah... that was a vague one.

Cycling through a Post Office: Destination Mexican Food

Notes: A bit of this dream was merger with reality, as my boyfriend did get a bunch of text messages from work last night, and kept having to get out of bed and deal with them. (He is a network admin, so if any of our servers goes down, he gets a text message telling him to go fix it.) My boyfriend also said he wanted Mexican food last night... and he and I usually do go out to eat with our coworker. Foods Eaten: Orange Chicken Dream Location: Boyfriend's Bedroom, Post Office, Mexican Restaurant The Dream: I was laying in bed with my boyfriend. He kept getting text messages from work, having to get out of bed and fix the servers. While he was in his office fixing the servers, I dropped my phone between the crack where the headboard and the mattress meet. No idea why. My boyfriend came back to bed, but I guess I decided I had some errands to run. I grabbed my phone from under the mattress, stuck it in my purse, and left. My transportation method of choice was a bicycle. I ...

Log Cabin in the Snow

Notes: ... Foods Eaten: Pizza! Dream Location: Log Cabin somewhere in the cold? The Dream: I was in a house, it seemed very log cabin like. I was hanging out with someone, but they kept changing images. The person started as my boyfriend, but then turned into my old friend, Christian, then back to my boyfriend. Whatever the case, my mom was making fajitas in the kitchen. The person I was with sat down at a small, square, wooden table in the kitchen while we waited for my mom to finish cooking. When she did, she brought us each a plate, and we started eating. I distinctly remember the person being my boyfriend at that moment, and he looked up and exclaimed, "Mine are better!" (He was referring to his fajitas... and he does make some damn good fajitas...). We finished eating, then walked outside onto a porch, that had stairs leading down to a walkway. Snow covered the ground. We grabbed the lid of a trash can and started repeatedly sliding down the snow covered stai...

Hostage

Notes: I meant to write this one down the other day, but forgot to. Now, as usual, I don't remember the minor details. Foods Eaten: Don't Remember Dream Location: Inside a house The Dream: I was inside a house, not sure who's. I noticed a white poster on the wall, it was a wanted poster... just as I am absorbing all the information on the poster and trying to recall the face, I heard a scream from another room in the house. I ran in the direction of the scream and ended up in the kitchen, where the wanted man on the poster had grabbed a woman in the house. His hand was cupped over her mouth, preventing her from speaking, and he had a knife held at her stomach. I don't remember anything else, but I remember the dream feeling pretty intense when I woke up.

Joaquin Phoenix in Egypt?

Notes: I'm guesstimating the date, for some reason I recall it being around early October, but this is the only spot where I see a decent size gap in my dream log, so I'm dating it as this. This memory got triggered by another half-assed memory of the dream I had last night. Foods Eaten: No clue. Dream Location: A cave maze? The Dream: I was watching Joaquin Phoenix in his Gladiator character form fighting someone else. It was in a very sandstone like cave, but there were strange Egyptian sculptures around, for some reason I remember seeing the Sphinx.

Warning: Cute Overload!

Notes: I wasn't feeling very good this morning, so I went back to sleep for another couple hours. I got an overload of cute in the dream I had! Foods Eaten: Fried Rice, Crab Rangoons (last night, nothing for breakfast before I went back to sleep) Dream Location: Lake Type House? The Dream: My family was in our house... everything was normal, except there were five kittens! Somehow we knew that my cat was the dad (even though he is neutered) , but we had no idea where the mother of the kittens was, or how they got in our house. I distinctly remember a description of three of them, but not sure about the others... There was an all black one with white paws and a star on his chest, long haired. Light gray one with dark gray stripes, white chest and legs, short haired. Silverish one with dark gray stripes, white chest and legs, long haired. This one was my favorite, and looked exactly like my cat, except silver instead of orange. The kittens were very playful, but kind of ...

Christmas Trees and Exploding Planes

Notes: Dream memory is sporadic this morning... wish I remembered more. Foods Eaten: Fried Rice, Crab Rangoons Dream Location: Not sure The Dream: I was outside a building, maybe a school. I saw a girl I knew from college, Lacie. I'm not sure how the conversation between us started, but I remember her asking how I could be so popular and so nice at the same time. I explained to her that it was because of how I was in high school. I wrapped my arm over her shoulder, and we walked together down a sidewalk. Complete transition. I was in a bedroom. There was a bed (or maybe a bunk bed?) on the right side of the room, I was laying on it. There was a window on the opposite side of the room, that I was looking out. I could hear planes flying over me, they sounded abnormally low to the ground. My dad came in the room, I think we had some sort of dialogue exchange about the planes. After a minute of him being in the room though, I saw a plane coming straight towards the w...

On Being Chased and Being Late

Notes: A thought about my hair color is what triggered this dream memory... odd. Foods Eaten: Hibachi Shrimp Dream Location: A skewed version of my Grandma's House The Dream: I knew I had green hair, even though it didn't seem to come into play at all. I was running down a hall in my Grandma's house, there was a room at the very end of it that I ran in to. People were chasing me... I don't know why. I somehow managed to sneak out of the room, back down the hall and into my Grandma's family room. I was crouched behind a rocking chair. My family's two German Shepherd dogs, Roxy and Kaz, were there. I saw a black guy run down the hall way... I whispered to one of our dogs telling him to get the black guy, and I told the other dog to get the white guy. Just as I was giving those commands to the dogs, the black guy came into the room. The dogs started to go after him, but I commanded them to stop. The guy sat on my Grandma's couch and started angrily aski...

Meeting the Sick Puppies!

Notes: Wish this dream would really happen! Foods Eaten: Hot Buffalo Wings Dream Location: Some concert venue (outside), A record store The Dream: I was walking into an outdoors concert venue to see a Sick Puppies concert. I walked down towards the stage, noting how small the crowd seemed, considering how well known Sick Puppies are. As I walked towards the stage, the lead singer, Shim, starting announcing the names of the winners to a contest they were apparently having. The first name he called was mine. I walked up to the stage, where Shim congratulated me, and told me that I would get to hang out with the band after the show. He also explained that I would get a magazine later, and gave me instructions to take a photo of someone at the concert, then find the person afterward and take three more pictures of them. I was told to report to the band when I was done. After Shim finished announcing the winners, they began the concert. Shim only sang the first verse to the song, ...

A Trip to BFE

Notes: Nothing of mention Foods Eaten: Don't Remember Dream Location: BFE The Dream: I had just gotten of a horse, it was standing next to me. The horse was completely tacked up with a bridle and saddle. I knew the horse had been very good while I was riding it. I don't know why I got off the horse, but looking around, I appeared to be lost. It was dark out, and there was nothing but fields and the occasional farm surrounding me. When I turned away to look around, the horse I had been riding disappeared. I decided I better go look for it... Walked up a dirt path, I found an area of fenced in animals to my left. There was a young horse, which I decided to try riding, but it was stubborn and didn't response to any use of reigns. I got off the horse, turning him loose and continued looking around. I ran into a deer, it appeared to be very friendly... but it hopped around like a rabbit. I went to reach out to pet it, but I guess I startled it, and it tried to kick m...

Pretty Sure That's Not in the Recipe

Notes: I woke up knowing that there was WAY more to this dream, but for the life of me, this is the only part I can remember. And this is gross. Foods Eaten: Don't Remember Dream Location: Not the slightest clue The Dream: I was standing over a stove, boiling water. There was a tray on the counter to the left of me, there were Macaroni noodles on half of it and human hair on the other half. I poured all of the noodles into the boiling water, then I picked up a pinch of the hair and added it to the boiling noodles. I remember thinking inside the dream that something didn't seem right about what I was doing, but I kept adding more of the hair anyway.

Family Reunions, Bathrooms, Hotels, and Churches

Notes: One I had a couple days ago, forgot a lot of the details. Foods Eaten: Don't Remember Dream Location: New York, Kernersville The Dream: I was in New York, at one of my mom's annual Family Reunions. As usual, my younger cousins, Emily and Elise, were clinging to me the entire day. They needed to use the restroom, so I said I would walk them there. On the way, Emily lost her shoe somehow... she ran off into the woods to find it. A few minutes later, she came out of the trees and continued walking with Elise and me to the bathroom. Apparently the bathroom we were walking to was inside a very upscale hotel. There was a lady managing a window outside (kind of like a movie theater). I asked her if my cousins could use the bathroom, she said I would have to pay for tickets to get in. Emily and Elise were chattering, and I didn't understand or hear how much the lady said I had to pay, so I just handed her some money from my purse. She gave me some change back in pe...

The Other Girl

Notes: I hate this kind. I wake up pissed off. Foods Eaten: Don't Remember... Dream Location: Boyfriend's Bedroom The Dream: I was laying in bed with my boyfriend, we were at his house. We weren't being affectionate, or even having a conversation. It felt awkward, so I asked, "Is everything okay?" He responded with, "I'm breaking up with you." I didn't immediately freak out or panic, I just asked, "Why?" His response was a question in return, saying, "You know that other girl I was telling you about?" I nodded and said, "Yeah...?" His simple response was, "Her." Woke up...

X-files Meets Sons of Anarchy

Notes: I <3 x-files. I <3 Sons of Anarchy. Apparently when you watch too many of both in one day, this is what you get. Also, I wasn't actually in this dream at all... just watching it like it was a TV show. Foods Eaten: Don't Remember Dream Location: Scattered... A body of water, a house with rooms similar to mine The Dream: A boy and girl are standing on a dock, next to a large river. The water is flowing quickly, and the dock is wet, as if it had just rained a large amount. There is a contained stairwell at the right of the dock, the girl walks up to it and falls into it. She screams. Fast forward. Agent Scully and Agent Mulder show up, they are scouting the dock. The girl's body is found at the far back edge of the dock, she is covered in blood, beaten to death. There is no sign of the boy. Transition. Agent Scully has just walked inside a house. The front door of the house is exquisite, two stories tall, windows surrounding it. There is another guy wi...

Creative Team Party -- Interrupted.

Notes: Nothing of mention. Foods Eaten: Brocoli, Cheese, Chicken Casserole Dream Location: My house The Dream: I was having a party with my coworkers, the members on the Creative Team only. My boss, Jenn, Granger and I were all standing in my downstairs hallway, my boss was talking about letting Granger go. I was only vaguely listening, but Granger didn't seem to care too much. She was just asking why and what the problem was. I remember suddenly feeling bad, because I had forgot to invite our other Creative Team-mate, Leila. I didn't mention it out loud because no one else seemed to notice. I got a phone call, it was my dad. He told me to clean up the house a bit and get ready for my Aunt Loretta and Uncle Dave, plus their three kids (my cousins) to come over. I said okay and hung up. All my coworkers disappeared after the phone call, and I went up to my room. I looked out my window and there was a fold out table set up in my driveway. Everyone that was coming to vi...

Don't Hug Me!

Notes: Been lazy about updating... I'm just glad my memory has been working so that when I actually go to write them down I remember all of the dreams from the past week, not just one. Foods Eaten: Not a lot - Ritz crackers with Cream Cheese Dream Location: No clue, only detail I remember is it was inside. The Dream: I had just finished talking to someone, I don't know who it was. I looked across the room and saw a familiar looking girl (someone I knew in high school - a girl named Colleen Martyn, I think) . I knew the conversation I had just had was about her, and something unfortunate happening in her life. I walked up to her and gave her a sympathetic smile, which she awkwardly smiled back to. I asked her, "Can I hug you?" to which she shied away in response and shook her head, explaining that she hates being touched. I told her it was no problem. She walked away for a minute, then came back. When she returned, I instantly hugged her, and she freaked out, ...

Horseback Riding

Notes: I know I had more dreams than this, but this is the only one/part that I can clearly remember. Foods Eaten: Honey Glazed Chicken Dream Location: Somewhere outside, an open field The Dream: I was riding a horse, it was one of my sister's horses, though I don't know which one. I squeezed the horses body with my legs, asking it to go into a canter. The horse sped up, but I forgot to loosen my grip, so he kept going faster - into a gallop. He was going so fast at this point, that I couldn't keep my body on his back, so I grabbed onto the reins and stopped trying to keep myself on him, expecting to fall off. Instead, I just sort of glided through the air behind the horse, until eventually he slowed down and I landed on the ground on my feet. I remember when I woke up, my first thought was wondering why my dream wouldn't let me fall off.

Waging War in my Bedroom

Notes: Unfortunately, I'm transposing this dream a few days after I had it, and I'm not recalling as much of it as I know happened. After writing this down, it also made a lot more sense in my head. Foods Eaten: Don't Remember Dream Location: My bedroom, Somewhere "Wild-West"ish The Dream: I was in my bedroom, everything was pretty much how it actually is. However, there was a voice telling me that I needed to prepare for war. I somehow knew that each object of furniture in my room, represented a different "country" that was "going to war". My desk was the east side, my bookshelf was the north, and my dresser was the west. I prepared myself for the "war" by cleaning up all objects in my room, putting everything away, even making the bed. I heard a noise outside my window, and looked out to see my sister in the driveway. I told her to come to my room, we were going to war. She got to my room, but still no one was there. The ...

Borrowed Dogs off Craigslist

Notes: Overactive dream mind last night. Foods Eaten: Macaroni and Cheese Dream Location: In a Cafe of sorts The Dream: I had just walked in a cafe, with two Pomeranian dogs. One of the Pomeranians was a light tan color, and the other was pure black. I saw my mom sitting at a table, and asked her if I could keep one since it was my birthday. She sighed and showed slight annoyance, then told me to go ask my dad. I got up from the table, and walked to the other side of the cafe, where there was a big window with a bench underneath it. My dad was sitting on the bench, reading a newspaper. He saw the Pomeranians and looked at me, as I asked if I could keep one. He asked where I got them from, I told him that I borrowed them from two owners with listings on Craigslist. Each  owner said I could keep the dog for a day, to see if I really wanted it. Dad asked which one I liked better, I responded telling him I liked the tan one. He looked at the tan one and commanded it to "Si...

The Path of Least Resistance

Notes: Overactive dream mind last night. Foods Eaten: Macaroni and Cheese Dream Location: Outside near a river, Inside OWASA (where my dad works, wasn't at all like what it looks like in reality) The Dream: My memory starts with my sister, my mom, and me in our black Toyota Prius. My sister was driving, but didn't have the car's lights on, even though it was dark out, presumably pretty late at night. I was in the passenger seat and noticed that the lights weren't on, I told my sister to turn them on. She started arguing with me, saying she didn't need them. I told her that it was night out, she had to turn them on. My mom, in the backseat, I guess got tired of our arguing and looked at my sister in the rearview mirror and said, "She's right, turn the lights on." My sister turned them on, revealing that we were actually driving through a forest. The dream transitioned, with the three of us walking on a path. The ground was covered in tons an...

The Night That All The Games I Play Converged

Notes: This was really strange, it was like living as a character in a video game. I'm pretty sure I'm the only person this dream would make sense to, since it involves specific people and a not-well-known game. Foods Eaten: Don't remember. Dream Location: A Digital Neighborhood - something like in "The Sims" The Dream: I was standing outside a house, in the driveway. I looked across the street, and saw the house across had their garage door open. There was someone inside - but they weren't normal, they were god-like. I heard a voice (I could recognize the voice as being an old friend of mine from a game - Andrew/Agarwain), telling me to go talk to the person in the garage. I walked across the street and realized the person was actually a visual portrayal of a god, Solontus (also a character from a game). If I had a conversation with him, I don't remember what it was.

Criminal Chasing and Bullet Dodging on the way to a Five Finger Death Punch Concert

Notes: I woke up and only recalled a small portion of this dream at first, but I kept asking myself why that particular thing happened in my dream, and managed to recall a good majority of it. I'm pretty excited, because it's been a really really long time since I can recall flying in a dream. Foods Eaten: Cheesey biscuits, Coconut Shrimp Dream Location: My Aunt Sue's house The Dream: I was in a bedroom, there were two twin beds in the room - my sister was half asleep in one of them. There was a dresser on another wall in the room, I was digging around through it, trying to find a particular shirt. I remember I was looking for a Five Finger Death Punch shirt. I guess the noise I was making fully woke my sister up, and I asked her if she wanted to go to a Five Finger Death Punch concert with me. She asked what time. I don't remember what I told her, but she ended up agreeing to go. The next thing I know, I'm in a very large bathroom. I don't recall see...

How Well Did You Know Your Best Friend?

Notes: Lots of death dreams lately, apparently. Foods Eaten: Greek Salad Dream Location: Outside of some middle-aged woman's house The Dream: According to my dream, one of my close friends had just passed away. I wanted to talk to the mother, ask her some questions and offer her some comfort, so I went to her house. When I got there, she was already waiting outside. She was middle aged, golden brown shoulder length hair, glasses, a little overweight. She said hello to me, and I told her I wanted to talk to her about her daughter. (I don't remember a name being mentioned at all in this dream.) She said she knew, and sternly said she wanted to know if I was really friends with her daughter. She started walking around her house, I followed her, as she asked me simple questions. Every question she asked, I had no trouble giving the correct response to (though I don't recall the questions or my responses). We kept circling around the house, over and over. I finally woke...

My Encounter with the Grim Reaper

Notes: In a spurt of short, undetailed, dreams, it would appear. Foods Eaten: Ramen Dream Location: My downstairs patio/backyard The Dream: I was having a small party or get together, the doors to a room in my basement were open, most people were hanging out in that room or outside around the patio area. I don't recall seeing anyone in particular - I never saw any of my friend's faces. I was talking to one of them though, we were inside, having a somewhat grim conversation about death. He said, "The Grim Reaper will only hurt you if you don't believe in him." I relaxed and said, "I believe in him." A couple other people around us were laughing... I turned around for a minute, looking outside at all the people. I noticed movement right outside the fence in my backyard. I watched the figure, which came through the gate into my yard. He was wearing all black, including a hood covering his face. A few of the people around me froze in place, terrifi...
