The Grandpa Dream #4

The other day I was thinking to myself that I hadn’t had a dream about Grandpa in a long time. In fact, the last time I dreamed about Grandpa was on April 21 of last year. So it really has been a while. Well, last night I had a dream about Grandpa, but he played [...]

The dream within a dream dream

It’s been a busy day and I haven’t yet had a chance to write about this dream that I had last night. But for it to make sense, I have to explain that when I was in high school, I would get up for school, eat breakfast, and then fall asleep on the couch listening [...]

The pregnancy dream

I had a dream last night that I was pregnant and I already have a good idea as to why I had the dream. I don’t buy into dream analysis of any kind, as I’ve said in the past. To me, dreams are triggered by a function in the brain that commits short term memory [...]

Heavy dreams

I’m in the midst of a phase of what I call “heavy” dreams. These are big, ponderous, wearisome dreams that seem to last all night and leave you feeling sluggish and often worn out when you wake up. It probably explains why I slept in until almost 10 this morning! The thing about this dreams [...]

The teacher dream

I had a dream last night that I went back and visited my first elementary school, Macafee Road School, in Somerset, New Jersey. In the dream, the school was entirely different than it is in reality. And I saw a teacher there who was supposed to have been my first grade teacher, but who in [...]

The Paranoid/Stalker Dream

Last night I had one of those eerie, unsettling dreams that isn’t quite a nightmare, but that leaves you feeling somewhat off-center. In the dream, I was walking up a ramp leading up to a hilltop. The ramp was something out of a Dr. Seuss story, with lots of curves and switchbacks to it. It [...]

A night of unsettling dream

I don’t know what it was about last night, but unsettling dreams was a part of it. I half expected to wake this morning in my bed to find myself transformed into a giant cockroach. Nevertheless, it is a gorgeous day out. We’re talking late spring-like weather, sunny, not a cloud in the sky, driving [...]

What a difference an hour makes

It was light out crossing the Potomac on the train this morning and so I guess that means we really did “fall back” an hour this weekend. I’m not sure however. My phone still says it’s 8:40 AM, even though the time on it is sync’d with my local T-Mobile network. Perhaps T-Mobile decided to [...]

The Harlan dream

Last night I had a dream that I was at Harlan Ellison’s house (which is just up the street from where strausmouse lived when we were in high school) and that we sat on a porch in the back and I listened to him talk about writing and science fiction and comic books. I used [...]

The contest dream

I had a dream last night that I was in the military and that my platoon was having a contest to see who could hold their breath the longest. I have always been good at this. When I was younger, I once choked on a piece of candy and ever since, I have practiced holding [...]

The airplane dream

So last night, I had a dream that I was in a Cessna 172 and strausmouse was the pilot. We were approaching what, in my warped dreamland, was Van Nuys airport. (In my dreams, Van Nuys airport is never like the actually VNY, into and out of which I’ve flown dozens of times. However, it [...]
