Are you a dreamer?
I've heard that everyone dreams at night, but not everyone remembers their dreams. Well, I remember most of my dreams. Like last night; our youth group was abducted by a cult from outer space [though not aliens] and we were being held hostage. I was doing covert ops, exploring the building and developing strategy, etc. I woke up in the middle of it, tossed and turned for a bit, then when back to sleep and returned to the dream. Earlier this week I had a dream that I had accidently killed a mobster's brother, and was groveling at his feet for him to not kill me. In the morning I thought about it and actually turned it into kind of a cool plot for a movie.
What gets really weird is that I still remember dreams that I had when I was really young. I'm talking about dreams from when I was in elementary school. I can only remember a few details right now, but sometimes I will remember the entire dreams out of nowhere. All of a sudden I'll remember a dream I had about a dirtbike and a middle school [not mine though], or the werewolf driving the semi [thanks to Teen Wolf], and various others. It's kind of weird what hides in the recesses of my mind; what I remember and what I don't remember. I've never had reoccurring dreams, but sometimes I'll be in a dream and it will feel really familiar, as though I've had other dreams in the same setting. Odd. Best dream-experience ever: I was running away from something in the desert, when I come to a cliff and I fall off. Upon hitting the ground I wake up and realize that I've rolled right off my bed [thankful only a foot or two off the ground]. That was pretty sweet. Any crazy dreams from anyone else? you have my love.

Yes, one time I had a dream that the government was after me and my 17 brothers because we were all black and the government didn't want us. So we hid in my closet. That one was pretty scary to say the least.
In junior high, I think I married almost every boy in my class in a dream. That was always awkward the next morning when I saw them at school.
I am a chronic, vivid dreamer. I remember details of almost all of my life-like dreams. Some are so intense that I will wake up unsure of where I am, sweating, heart pumping, even my legs will feel sore if I was running in my dream. I have had several people suggest writing books based on my dreams. There would a wide variety from spy novels to romantic classics.
Sometime we should share notes, maybe we could combine a couple for a dynamite story!
T, I am at the opposite end of the spectrum. I hardly remember any of my dreams, and I never have reoccurring ones. Maybe it's because for the last 8 years I have been a parent and have hardly slept through the night. Or maybe it's because my most wonderful dream came true...Ryan Tow... and now I have no need for dreams anymore ;)
