Scenes from my Dreams

Notes: Definitely suffering from post-cruise depression. Foods Eaten: Feta, Olive, Tomato Pizza with Buffalo Sauce The Dream: My boyfriend and I were at what appeared to be a bar with the counter and seats directly facing out the windows of a cruise ship. I was trying to get him to focus on choosing some daily events and excursions with me, but he had a friend that kept distracting him and pulling him away. I seemed to be under some guideline of only being allowed to choose two daily events and one excursion, and the excursion had already been chose. Trying to stay organized, I scanned through the list of events myself while Trevor had his attention elsewhere. My eye caught on one that was called "Atheist Meetup" and I decided that might be an easy way to try and meet and associate with others on the ship. I went ahead to the customer service area and signed us up for the meetup. When Trevor finally caught back up with me, I told him I had signed us up for that and his...

Notes: I'm finding that if I wake up early, stay up for an hour, then go back to sleep, I have some of the strangest dreams. Foods eaten: Cereal. The Dream: In trying to recollect my memory of this dream, I remember there being a ticketed entrance for something, but I can't recall what. I recall being in the basement of what appeared to be a pub, with Derek and some of his friends, playing pool. I also recall being in a grocery store parking lot with Trevor and my sister, in the rain. We must've gone home, as  I was now in an older style house. Wood panels, fairly small. Looking out a bedroom window at the front of the house, the sun shined through. I registered the place to be my own house in New York, though questioned why I ended up somewhere with such miserably cold weather. I was soaking wet from rain and Trevor met me in the kitchen where we laughed at how drenched we were. We shared a passionate kiss, before approaching a giant bean shaped bathtub that looked ...

Foods Eaten: An excessive amount of collard greens. The Dream: I was just waking up to find myself laying in my own bed with a woman. She was definitely someone familiar (gut instinct says it was a girl I just met, Courtney, or my friend Matt's long time girlfriend...). She had her back to me, but upon realizing I was waking up, she rolled over to face me, wrapping her arm around my side. I accepted it but began to question what she was doing there. I said something along the lines of, "What are you doing? What if Derek comes upstairs and sees this?" Her response was only a mischievous smile. Looking over her shoulder and through the doorway of my bedroom, I saw Derek lying on the floor right outside the room, above where the stairs are. He appeared to be sleeping, but one of his arms moved and I began to panic, pushing the girl away from me. Within seconds, Derek was standing at the edge of the bed, and all I had done to conceal the other girl was push her under the c...

Very often, the first thing that will come out of Derek's mouth in the morning is some nonsense that turns into a crazy dream plot, which in turn refreshes my dream memory. Last night, we both had some strange ones - to the point that we gave up on sleep... Foods Eaten: The last thing we ate before going to bed was this Reese's peanut butter bar dessert thing. I blame the peanut butter for the dreams that ensued. The Dream: I was sitting in my own living room, on my own computer. Derek was next to me, also on his computer. We were each doing our usual thing - game playing and internet browsing, and it appeared to be sometime late in the evening. I decided it was time to go to bed, and announced so to Derek. We both went upstairs, but upon reaching the top of the steps he pushed me to the ground in front of our washer and dryer. As I laid on my back, I looked up just in time to watch Derek slam his fist into my face, punching all my teeth out. Suddenly realizing I was dre...

The Dream: I was standing in a hall with a guy figure that I could not see in detail, but I knew was not my fiance. Though I don't directly recall it, my brain wants to say  he was "holding" me in a romantic manner. The guy gently took my hand and walked me up to an elegant bar down the hall. He took a seat at a bar stool, and I sat down next to him, noticing that his figure now looked like a real life version of the cartoon character Cyril from TV show "Archer". Though there were no other physical interactions with him, our togetherness was assumed to be a date. My phone was now sitting on the bar counter, and it vibrating gently, signifying a text message. I opened the message, and it was from my mom. The text read, "Is his [presumably referring to the guy I was with] car at the house?" I gave the question a significant moment of though before coming to the conclusion that we had driven "his" car, so I responded with an nondescript, ...

Notes: I feel like I've been having some intensely long, random dreams recently. It's kind of weird. Especially given that I'm remembering them so well. The Dream:  I was in a large room, with numerous other unidentified people around. We were about to start some sort of game. I seemed to understand what I was doing in dream state, but now that I'm awake I have no idea what the rules or objective were - I can only assume it was akin to a scavenger hunt. I headed out of the room, which lead directly onto an outdoor cement sidewalk. It seemed like it was on a college campus. I followed the sidewalk, which lead down a slight hill into an area heavily shaded by large trees. I continued following the path, until I was lead right into a house. I automatically knew my way around the house (though I cannot relate to it in waking world) . My sister and mother were there, and acting strange. They very vaguely told me I needed to help them dispose of something. They climbed ...

Notes: I had some really elaborate dreams last night, but for some reason I can only recall details about the locations of each - I don't seem to have a clue about the plots or actual happenings in either dream. Foods Eaten: Salad covered in very spicy salsa. The Dream: It was night time, I was at what was a very large and elegant white house. There were three symmetrical octagonal areas at the front with large, full wall windows. Inside each of the three rooms were two tiered floors, decorated with lots of lovely fern plants. One of the areas had a hot tub on the second tier. I seem to remember both Derek and TJ being in the house. I also remember going semi-lucid at some point. I was fully aware that I was dreaming, but I remember trying to push or pull an object and being completely unable to. I even remember thinking to myself, "I'm dreaming, but why can't I interact?"
