Do you have vivid dreams all the time? I do. Tell me yours!

[Lethe]

I have seriously cool dreams a lot of the time. When I wake up I can remember most of it. Usually I just tell my roommate, who gets a kick of them, but recently I was urged by someone to start writing them down and for the past week I have been.

Do you ever have narrative dreams? What I mean is, usually my dreams are pretty random. Every now and then I have one where everything makes sense, and it is like a long story or movie where I play a part and there is a clear, logical goal and resolution to the story. When I wake up, I feel like I have just watched a strange movie.

I guess I'm just wondering if anyone else has vivid dreams that make sense and that can be remembered the next day?

1. I have that all the time

Full character development, plot lines and I remember everything days later. It's as if I've been to another world in my sleep.
I've gotten so used to it that I literally say before I go to sleep, "I wonder where I'll be going tonight". Are we both nuts?

3. totally! thats what i think before I go to bed too!

in fact, i usually tell my roommate that before i hit the sack -- "wonder what's going to happen tonight?" etc etc

2. I do

I usually remember my dreams. They happen right before I wake up in the morning. If the dream seems really long, it means it is past my get out of bed time.

That is a good idea to write them down. Sometimes a dream will seem strange, but it is just your brain taking random snapshots of your day and trying to put them together in a way that makes sense. I read that in a dream book once.

4. I have theme dreams

For a while I dreamed a lot about shopping malls for some reason. I also have a lot of dreams about searching for apartments. Once I found a tree house, fully furnished. Other times I am wandering around some strange city, which looks sort of familiar.
