Does anyone else have inaccurate dreams
My dreams are so weird, I have dreams about people that I know which is sort of realistic but then also in this dream are other people that I know but who the first people either don't know or were from a different time. Like last night for instance I had a dream about someone I hadn't seen since 8th grade, and had completely forgotten about this person at least in my conscious.

1. Yeah. Just last night.
Very disturbing. I don't remember the details, but I woke up in a cold sweat.

But, 'twas just a dream. All is good.

3. I quickly forget details
but as I said yesterday, who ever said dreams were mere figments of reality is full of shit. I forget the details of mine from last night, I remember who was in it but jeez how did she get back in my thoughts, no, not an old girlfriend, just a girl I knew in middle school then went on to Catholic school in HS.

7. I think dreams are offshoots of reality.
They are how our subconscious minds deal with the realities that we're unable to process while awake. They deal with a million different thoughts in only a few minutes, so they may seem to be unrealistic -- but mine always have that footing. More hyperreal than surreal, as it were.

8. Then why the hell was I thinking about Dana?
I haven't seen her since 8th grade, remember her though. I dunno, my dreams always turn out to be figments of truth, that is, something either happens, like for instance the summer of 2001 I dreamed my dad was in a plane crash on a business trip and there was nothing we could do about it, thats odd for two reasons, my dad doesnt go on business, he's umm Mr. Mom lol and it was eerily resmicent to 9/11. I dunno maybe Dana will be going to school with me this year after three years of Catholic HS, weird, its just I know I havent been thinking about her on the surface but in a way, all does add up eventually.

2. mine are so disjointed "accuracy" doesn't even apply
characters will morph from one person to another, or sort of be composites. LAst night I had one that was sort of a cross between my childhood swimming lessons, an episode of Sliders, and a drug bust. And it all made sense at the time.

5. I dreamed there were dead mice in my bed a few nights ago.
I suppose it was better than dreaming that there were live mice in the bed.

6. I Love Weird Dreams
They're like movies with no plot devices to tip me off to what's coming.
