Dog Days

The other night I had a dream that I was a dog. I could see everything through the dogs eyes. Me and another dog (a male german shepard) escaped from some sort of kennel and were running the streets of a city. We explored, rolled around on the grass and got into trash cans. Eventually we got hungry, though, and returned to the kennel only to cross paths with another dog in the act of escaping. We ended up being adopted and taken to a home in Savannah.

Flute

Last night I dreamt about a man with a wooden flute that could travel through time by playing the flute. I decided to follow him and discovered that he had numerous wifes and families in various time periods. At some point I learned the man was my father and I ended up staying with one of his many families in a modernish southern plantion. There was a brother and sister there as well and they sort of became my new family.

Another Whale(ish) Dream

In my dream last night I was walking down by a river (or some water way) and noticed a small group of people by the shore so I walked down to see what they were doing. When I got there there was a guy and two girls and an orca halfway on shore. I asked what they were doing and the guy pulled out a knife. I realized he was trying to kill it and told him to stop. He didn't act like he was going to stop so I punched him in the face. (lol) The girls tried to stop me but I threatened to punch them as well and they let me push the orca back into the water.

Publishing Dreams?

Last night I dreamed  I recieved an e-mail (exciting, I know.) from a beta reader that's reading my WIP right  now. In the e-mail she asked me what I planned to do with the novel when I am finished and how I was going to market it. The dream was  helpful because I've been trying to figure out that question for awhile now.

 Originally I planned on submitting it to agents with the hopes of getting a publisher interested. But the market has been changing. Most publishers won't touch my topic right now (there are vampires in it) and I'm worried that no matter how hard I work it won't be enough. I've been following the e-publishing trend as well and have started wondering if that is a smart option. It's quick, easy and inexpensive. And my book could be out there in a matter of weeks. But the dream made me realize that e-publishing is going to feel like accepting defeat. I know now that I at least have to try and find an agent. Maybe I won't be sucsessful. I may fail. I may have to go with e-publishing, but at least I'll know I tried my hardest to find my book a home. And that's something I can live with.

So I haven't been doing a very good job of posting on here lately. I've just been busy with life and such. I'm going to try and improve on that this week. I have come to the conclusion that TV and movies play a major role in the dreams I have, so at least I've learned something with this project.

Ice Rink

Last night I dreamt I was ice skating with a group of friends in an indoor skating rink. We were havinf fun until we noticed that it has caught on fire. We got out ok but after we left we discovered that a female politician had started the fire. She was on several TV news stations bragging about her role in the fire.

Ocean Dreams

Last night I dreamed about being in the water. The entire sea swept around me as I moved through the murky depths. I was some sort of animal, probably a whale, because I often dream about them. I swam over rocks, past schools of fish and I felt free and happy. I didn't worry about what time it was, or where I was going. I simply swam. I got to see the beauty of the ocean and I loved every second of it. Eventually that dream melted away into something else but I wish I could go back to my ocean dream.


I've been dreaming about whales since I was a kid. I've always felt some sort of strange connection with them. At one point in my life my dream was to be a whale trainer, until I learned how harmful captivity is on them. I would still like to help them though. If you are interested in helping  dolphins check out this site. Thanks. :)

Guitar dreams

I dreamt that I was part of some sort of project where everyone had to find old junk and use it to make something else. I was teamed up with an older man and we found some old metal scraps which we decided to use to make guitars. He got his together really quickly and was playing it but I couldn't quite get mine togther. He ended up helping me and we had a little jam session in a restaurant with our new guitars.

Baby

Last night I dreamt that was wondering around a book store and one of my coworkers was getting an ultrasound done in the book store. The lady told her she was having twin girls. I asked her if she was excited and she didn't say anything and looked freaked out. Then she ran out of the room. (In real life she just had a baby boy.)

Julie and Julia

Last night I made the mistake of watching the movie Julie and Julia before going to bed. It was actually a really good movie, but my dreams were all about food. Cooking, eating, pans of butter. Chicken dishes, rice dishes. Yummy desserts. You get the idea. When I woke up I was starving. I blame Julie. Both of them

Guinea Pig

In my dream last night one of my friends was visiting me and her ex boyfriend brought her a shoebox with 3 guinea pigs inside. I asked her what she was going to feed them and she told me that they didn't need to eat. I tried to explain that they did indeed need to eat but had no idea what to feed them. We decided to go to the pet store to try and find guinea pig food but because we were hungry, we ended up going out to eat first.
when we got to the restaurant, one of the guinea pigs escaped and it took the entire restaurant staff over an hour to find it. They were not pleased.

Movies and Motocross

I had two dreams last night. In the first dream I was at a movie theater in Erie, PA. I was watching a movie when the two young girls sitting next to me started smoking, which was clearly prohibited all over the theater. I told them to stop and threatened to get them kicked out but we got into a verbal disagreement about it. I ended up misssing the end of the movie because it. In my second dream someone told me that there had been a large motocross accident and a number of kids from my high school had been killed in the race. They read off the list of people in the accident (there were 14 or 15) but I only knew one of them.

Trial

In my dream last night I was visiting a small town near my house. He parked in a no parking zone (on accident) and got a ticket. We decided to go pay the ticket but when we got to the court house they told us he had to go to trial. He was arrested and I called my mom to ask her what to do. The mayor of the town was there and seemed pretty crazy. The next day was his trial and they sentenced him to life in prison!

Ipod

Last night I dreamt I was inside some sort of school. I decided to go to the restroom and took my ipod out of my pocket and set it on a vent outside the restroom. When I came out of the bathroom the ipod was gone (big suprise) and I saw a guy sitting on the ground playing with it. I told he he had my ipod and he told me it was his. I tried to show him that the ipod name matched my name but he had already deleted the file. My friends came over and got into the debate and eventually forced him to give it back to me.

This Old House

In my dream last night I was moving with my family. My mom was my real life mom but I had a different dad and two different sisters. We bought this amazing giant house that overlooked a lake. It was a fixer upper so we got a deal on it. There was a large enclosed porch in the front and it had lots of dark woodwork through the house.

I spent the first day at the new house hanging out by the beach and riding my bike around the town. When night fell these little creatures started appearing by the lake. They looked sort of like bears but they were around a foot tall and were all different colors. Bright blue, pink, green ect.. And they were all sleeping.

After I went back to the house, I discovered the real reason that we had gotten such a good deal on the house. The house had a curse put on it. Everynight a midnight an old woman would appear in the attic and wander the house with a cane sticking out. I saw here for a couple nights and was terrifed because she was scary looking and kept trying to poke me with her cane.

My family started asking around about here, and someone finally told us how to break the curse. We did some sort of ritual at midnight the next night and she vanished.

Island Dream

Last night I dreamt that I was with a group of friends and we swam out to an island. The island was sort of a cross between a ghost town and an abandoned amusement park. There were empty streets, old stores and the remains of a large rollercoaster. It was creepy and kind of pretty at the same time.We spent the day checking things out but when we decided to head home it suddenly became winter and the water in the lake froze over. I tried to walk back across the ice but the ice broke and I fell through. My friends had to get a helicopter to pull me out of the water but I was fine.

Dream 2

I don't remember much of last nights dream but I do remember working on some sort of archaeological excavation but instead of finding archaeology stuff I kept finding these little clear gems. They were not quite diamonds, but still pretty. One of my college professors was in charge of the excavation.

My First Dream Post!

I had several short dreams last night.

In the first one I was walking down the street and met a young man who told me his name was Collier. We walked together for awhile and he seemed pleasant enought but then he grabbed me by the arm and told me he was kidnapping me. He forced me to get on a train, although I didn't really fight him too hard for some reason. The strange thing about this dream was that I was President Obama through the dream.

The next dream featured me as myself. My parents told me we were all going to Asia. I can't remember what country it was. It may have been China or Japan. We went to the airport and I got on the plane.

The last dream I remember was about me working for a Chiropractors office. I mostly messed with the phones and tried to learn some of the names of bones.

My Dream Diary

The plan for this blog is just a way for me to keep track of my dreams, whenever I can remember them. I may add a comment or opinion on occasion as well.
