I had just passed some advanced training with a weapon -- though perhaps had not reached the highest level of mastery of it, which might only then come with time. It was basically a yo-yo, but the rock at the end was sort of mystical and was like an animal, maybe a monkey, or a monkey crossed with an armadillo, and it could swipe at targets when released as a yo-yo, or even be set free to fight on its own. We (the city, I think) were invaded by some mystical gangsters or something. Maybe a little like the bad guys in Big Trouble in Little China. One of their big bad guys sent out a bunch of little enemy monster "weapons", and I defeated them all with my yo-yo, and was feeling rather confident. But the bad guys real weapons were legendary monsters. They were set out to fight, and set out the monkey-armadillo, but it was not advanced enough, and could not keep up. I don't think the dream lasted to show any consequences of losing.

Later on in the dream, the place was identified as the estate of a rich family that lived on the "West Coast of Texas". Even while dreaming, my logic center objected to that, and then I saw a vivid, old-timey map of Texas, and it zoomed in on the west side, by the Rio Grande, and in the dream there was a part of the Rio Grande that was so wide it was practically a lake, and then it was reasserted that that was where they lived. Anyway, it was mostly outside, and the estate was surrounded by a deeply forested (or even swampy) area. Part of the dream was that one person at the party / one member of the family was crazy and would kill people at random. Her modus operandi was to surprise people by killing them when they were occupied. She said that one common thing for her to do was kill women while they were rooting through their purses. At some time during the party, a delivery man came by, and she talked with him and showed him an MP3 player. He said, "Oh, that's cool!" and when he was holding it and looking down at it, she stabbed him. I think something like this happened a second time, but people tried to stop her then.

I think I had that dream again last night. www.flyingomelette.com

I'm dreaming frequently lately, but I only remember a few details from each one. In one, a group of people were trying to transport someone who was a target for attack. They kept switching vehicles and had decoys. Eventually one of the decoys came under attack. During the dream, none of this raised any suspicion in me, but afterwards it sure seemed like a part in Batman: The Dark Knight. Although this part of the dream took place in broad daylight. Then last night I had a dream which had a part where all three of our girl cats had gotten out and were on the street.

Although sometimes Caramel would go off on her own to play with her pink plastic ball toys, but she would always come to us when it was time to go home. Since it was nearing the end of the year and the weather was getting colder, we went back to one of the parks to collect up all of her pink balls. Even though you'd think once one of those things is lost in a big park, it's gone forever, we were finding most of them quite easily. www.flyingomelette.com

I wasn't going to Disneyland, mind you; I just ended up there. Anyways, I made a beeline for the Haunted Mansion, but stopped when another attraction near the Mansion caught my eye. It was hard to miss, because it was a giant skull, surrounded by a purple glow while everything else in the dream was obscured by black fog. Anyway, it turned out to be, of all things, a "Paul Shaffer Magic Show." Only, Paul Schaffer only appeared in an introductory video. The actual attraction was a rather lame magic show starring the guy from the video that comes with the Dragonstrike board-game. The audience was exactly half full, consisting of mostly teenagers with dates. The magic show went on with mostly amateur-level card tricks. As he performed the tricks, the host would tell really stupid jokes. This went on until he ran out of tricks and just started telling jokes stand-up style. Eventually, he started telling really racist jokes about Barack Obama, at which point the audience started booing him off stage. The booing kept getting louder and louder until the dream ended.

I had a dream a few days ago that I found Boo Boo and he was completely falling apart. It was such a realistic dream that it didn't occur to me that it was a dream for days later. In real life, a few years ago he started coming undone in his arm pits, and my grandmother sewed him back up for me. That must have been what occasioned the dream.

At the end of it, I was in a contest that was like a Donkey Kong 64 style minigame. Bob-omb-like enemies would enter a small room (which even had Banjo Kazooie style graphics), and we could pick them up with a dust pan and drop them off. The idea was supposed to be that you should try to get the bombs to explode on the other person. After their life bar was depleted, you'd win. Well, the first Bob-omb started flashing, so I picked it up and put it near the other guy. But even after the bomb flashed, it took about ten seconds to go off. So you couldn't really use that to gauge when to throw them. I decided I just wouldn't do much of anything, wait for the room to fill with bombs, and then hope luck would be on my side and more bombs would explode near the other guy than me. It turned out that way. After that, it turned out the main character in this dream was not me at all, but maybe Gary Coleman, but with a huge afro. That supposedly took place when he was 18, but now he was 19 (and no longer was even short) and back for a rematch. He also shaved a pattern into his afro.

Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	I had a dream last night that was very, very incoherent. I'll try my best to describe it. First of all, I dreamed that I was back in my NJ hometown and the downtown area was almost completely different from how it really is. The buildings were all arranged in such a way that you could ride a bicycle into the first building at the north end of a block, and go through each building all the way down the street to the south end of the block. I would frequently do this to eat dinner at the last building. When I bicycled home, just around the corner there were a bunch of people practicing out in the street for like a really psychadelic modernized version of MacBeth. Some of the people were even in Transformer costumes. I think one guy was supposed to be Bluestreak, though he looked more like Ratchet, and another guy was Skywarp. Eventually, I decided to see the play when it was ready to be performed because seeing the practices on the way home from dinner made me really interested in it. It was a very good performance, even though it was rather strange. A lot of it was performed in the dark, but they had costumes on that would glow neon colors. When it was over and I stepped out of the building where the play was being held, there were a bunch of people outside who seemed upset that they had no idea this play was going on and demanded to know what it was all about and why they weren't informed. My response was basically, "How could you NOT notice them rehearsing it out in the street all this time?" When I got home, I found out that the play's success somehow spawned a new Transformers cartoon with Bluestreak as the main hero character and Skywarp as the main villain. Skywarp looked and sounded like he did in G1, but Bluestreak looked more like a cross between G1 Bluestreak and G1 Ratchet and had a different voice actor and more serious personality. When I was done watching the preview for this new show, I went out into my backyard and there were a couple of real, life-sized Transformers standing out there, although I don't know which ones. They said something about more coming and pointed to the sky. I looked up and could see jets that were supposed to be Decepticons flying overhead and that's the last part of the dream I can remember before I woke up. www.flyingomelette.com

A few things were obviously different, one including health potions you could collect in massive quantities, which made even Hiruko a wimp. I made a post about it, then Crawl came and edited my post for spoilers, saying I wasn't supposed to tell the world Hiruko's last name was "Ubasuna" for some reason.

They were doing some new style of karate. Then (in the dream) I went to a condo, but it was more like an exaggeration of a castle by Mad King Ludwig, with a balcony with massive parapets that looked out over a gaping cliff.

Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	I'm posting a link to this because I'll need to add these to the Dreams Archive on my site eventually. Somewhat-related to that, I had another dream last night about playing a weird new Metroid game. I think this is another dream I have that reoccurs every so often. Usually the game looks like a cross between Super Metroid and the original NES Metroid and almost every time I dream about it, I've always just found a secret passage or item after having been stuck on the game for a really long time. -- I think we must have had another dreams topic that got wiped out in the 2005 Hacker incident because I recall posting about this dream I had where there was a flock of geese flying over something and I kept seeing things through their perspective, sometimes the lead goose, and sometimes the other geese.... but I couldn't find that post. I also remember another one I posted about Nucleo being in an underground cave in my backyard in NJ, but I couldn't find that one, either. Also, it amazes me that out of the thousands of posts there are on the Game Pond, there is not one that contains the word "dream" or "dreams" anywhere. (I searched there thinking maybe I had posted about some dreams there in the past, but if I did, those posts are gone now.) Edit - Totally had no memory of this one at all. www.flyingomelette.com Last Edited By: Flying Omelette 11/27/09 4:40 PM. Edited 1 times.

There were some railroad tracks that were on a high hill made of gravel. There might have been a road of a sidewalk or something next to the tracks that were as high as they were, so it was like there was a valley between the two. There was a kid who was trying to run and jump from the bottom to the top of the hill. I think there was something about how he was growing weed by the tracks, too.

It was set in my house. The only reason the alien wanted to hang out with me was because he thought I was hosting the alien Queen in my stomach (I wasn't). I wanted to go to the bathroom but the alien insisted on trying to go with me, so I shoved him away and told him to get lost. He went downstairs where my mother was and I told her to make sure the alien doesn't try and kill her. The alien just walked on right past her and that was met with laughter from the audience.

Every show I fell down a waterfall (like Midas River in Super Mario RPG), but this time I stopped midway through. I remember thinking to myself, "well, I guess tonight will be a variation on the old routine." And I started doing standup about Pokémon. One joke was about how awful the new legendaries look. As the studio (laugh track?) began to laugh louder I got more confident and started walking around what had turned into my hometown. There were a bunch of people waiting outside a restaurant and I tried to get them into the routine but they seemed more interested in eating. The dream continued from there but I don't remember any further.

We were going to watch a construction crew set off explosions on the school ground. At first I though this meant they were going to demolish an unused building (or the school itself!) but we ended up going to a pool. Apparently, they were going to somehow use the explosives to clean the water in the pool! Everyone was really excited to see some explosions, even me, but they ended up being really tiny. Not only were the explosions really lame, but I kept getting yelled at by a woman (not the teacher, but some other random woman) for stupid things. Like, she got mad at me for standing too close to the explosives, even though there were other kids much closer. After a while, I got fed up and just shouted "fuck the fucking explosions!" and went to find some shade because it was getting hot. I found an unlocked gate and just left, even though it was presumably in the middle of a school day in the dream.

Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	I'm sometimes hesitant to post my weirder dreams because even I don't know what to make of them, but... I had this dream that there was a revival of the 80's cartoon M.A.S.K. (I guess like so many other 80's franchises these days), but instead of being a cartoon or movie, it was inexplicably a live-action TV show and even weirder... it wasn't even an action show, it was a sitcom! Everyone was played by real people except the main villain (Miles Mayhem?) who was inexplicably still a cartoon character, and the show seemed to center around all the characters living in an apartment together. Somebody, I don't know who, was played by Johnny Depp. I don't think the cars talked in the original cartoon, but they did on this show, so it was like they were trying to add a Knight Rider style dynamic to the show. The only specific story detail I remember from the dream was the main villain complaining that there was no milk in the refrigerator and a kid who I think was supposed to be that little kid that was always riding around on that little robot said he'd go to the corner store to get some. Instead of going on the robot, though, he went on a Segway that he said he bought from GOB of Arrested Development, and he explained that GOB sold it to him because that show was canceled and he wouldn't need it anymore. The dream faded out and ended after the kid got to the store. www.flyingomelette.com

I screwed something up but I didn't realize how bad it was until the next day. I talked to one of my old bosses in the dream, someone I always got along with pretty well in real life. And he was telling me how I was going to be fired now and basically that nothing could make him happier than to see me lose a job I liked and wanted so badly. I remember being shocked enough by the unreality of it that I had an inclination that I might be dreaming, and tried to wake up, but didn't. I understand what prompted the basic situation of the dream (fear of failure at something new, fear of a bad thing happening again) but not exactly the part about the guy being so gleeful and vicious about my failure.
