Friday Fives

1. What was the last dream that you had about?
Last night, the dream was a bit spooky. All of us Nextel folks (soon to be Sprint folks) were climbing a big hill to this sky scraper and taking the stairs up to a human resources office to apply for a job at a new company. Frankly, I didn’t like where that dream was going! But the coffee, in the dream, was divine. And my dad was there too – fishing and drinking a diet Coke.

2. Does it hold any significant meaning to you?
Well, yeah. We are going through a merger and work and so yeah, I am certain my subconscious is concerned about a lay off.

3. Do you dream in color or black and white?
Full, head on color, baby! I take very vitamin C and vitamin rich daily nutritional supplement shake twice a day and regardless of any health benefits, the Reliv shake I faithfully consume gives me the wackiest and richest-in-detail dreams!

4. What is the most frightening dream you ever had?
I had a very traditional falling of a cliff dream many years a go that startled me out of my slumber. And years later I still remember it.

5. Is there one dream that stays clear in your mind despite the fact it was more than a few years ago?
See above. Jeez, who screens these questions anyway. Oh wait. I do. I do have another recurring dream. More in that almost awake but not stage in the early morning – when I want to just go back to sleep. I will day dream myself back to sleep dreaming of winning the lottery and how I will spend the money. Puts me right to sleep.

  1. 1. Last night I had a recurring dream that I was visiting a haunted house that bordered Cheesman Park. Although I didn’t make it into the house in this dream last night, I have in the past and I always encounter wondrous, but sometimes horrifying, phenomena.
    2. The significance is probably linked to my fascination with the supernatural and desire to connect with those that have passed, while maintaining a healthy fear of the unknown.
    3. I have always dreamt in full color, but I can rarely read in dreams. I’ll struggle and struggle and while all I ‘see’ is sanskrit, I somehow make out a message – albeit a very slow process. Sorta like real life! 😐
    4. The dream that scares me more than anything are the dreams where I drown. It’s usually at sea with lots of ugly, many-toothed creatures lurking below. (shiver)
    5. Every dream I’ve ever had about Craig has been unusually vivid and tactile, so are easy to recall, detail for detail. It’s nice to still be able to visit him that way.

  2. !) The last dream I remember was about Odin (our wee lover cat-man) being eaten whole by a large black dog. I did not enjoy it.

    @) No signifigance whatsoever aside from keeping Odin/Bubbaloo/Little Bird safe.

    #) I dream in color. Typically that bright “I’m Ted Turner here to fuck up your favorite film” technicolor. I think I did too much acid in high school.

    $) The most frightening dream I can currently remember (I’m a bit hungover thanks to Wendy & Charlie’s) is when Thom killed me. For some reason, my subfreak thought he was going to dice me up with one of his swords.

    %) I think of a dream that’s not mine pretty regularly. To this day, my mother dreams of me as a child in those one piece flannel kid’s pajamas with the rubber feet & head to toe zipper I once caught my willy in, backing away from her on top of a roof, falling over the edge & plummeting to my death while she tries desperately to save me. Weird but, I think it’s why I’m afraid of heights. Have fun Freud.

  3. 1. My dreams have been very unsettled lately, but not quite as vivid as usual or easy to recall.

    2. N/A

    3. Color, definitely…although I once had an entire dream in blue tones as I lived (& could breathe) underwater.

    4. Probably one of my falling dreams – I am on a ridiculously tall (think Empire State bldg.) ladder that is wobbling back & forth and I am trying to cling onto it for dear life.

    5. I’m with Sage, I can recall each & every dream of Craig that I’ve had. Sage & I even had the same (or similar) dream of him last year.
