Glittering Enchantment

Friday Five

  1. What's the last vivid dream that you remember having?
    Last night, I dreamt I was in tobacco store in London, and Jeremy was watching me from outside. When I walked out to talk to him, he ran away screaming.
  2. Do you have any recurring dreams?
    Not anymore. When I had mono three years in a row, I had a recurring dream that I was floating in the air, writing on the ceiling with a butter knife. It could have been the drugs I was on, or it could have been an OBE. I would go for the drugs.
  3. What's the scariest nightmare you've ever had?
    There are so many to think about. Probably the soccer ball-sized spider chasing me through my apartment and tapping one of its legs on my bedroom door, as if it were politely asking to come in and eat me.
  4. Have you ever written your dreams down or considered it? Why or why not?
    If I have time, I will always record my dreams. I use it as a tool to understanding myself (which never helps much) and also to recognize patterns within my dreams. If the dreamer can become aware of certain recurring patterns in dreams, it is easier to become lucid while dreaming.
  5. Have you ever had a lucid dream? What did you do in it?
    Yes. I was on a deserted cruise ship being chased by Schwartzenegger-type bad guys with machine guns. I ran outside on the deck, jumped on the diving board of the pool, and took off in flight away from the ship. It was way cool.

I was silly enough to write this at 1:40 PM
