What's the last weirdest dream you had?

Hi Claradoon,

Oops, that wasn't me having that dream about the white whale - it was Tibergrace. After quoting my post with the cartoon about finding Jesus, Tibergrace described a dream that was like Moby Dick / the book of Jonah. Tibergrace's text was under the cartoon, so the "quote" button may have missed out on whose quote it really was.



It's a remarkable dream, though. I'm almost sorry it wasn't mine; I'd love to have spoken with Mark Twain!

On a side note: has anyone here ever had a dream involving someone you know and care about, and then you find out that this person had the exact same dream, with you in it? That used to happen to me when I was younger (and in love); I've heard of it happening to other people too. Usually completely innocent dreams, like walking in a park.

I dreamed that I was trying to figure out Ramanujan's solution to the following problem, but couldn't.

You have a street with n houses on it numbered, in order, from 1 to n and there is a house number x so that the sum of the house numbers to one side of x is equal to the sum of house numbers to the other side of x. If 50 <=n <=500, what is n and x?

For example, if there are 8 houses, the sum of the house numbers to one side of house #6 is 1+2+3+4+5=15 and the sum of the house numbers to the other side of house #6 is 7+8=15.

When asked the problem, instead of providing n and x, Ramanujan provided an equation in the form of a continued fraction to find all such n and x.

i dreamt i was somewhere in Russia, in the countryside outside of a major city. i was on a paved part of a grassy clearing on the side of the road next to a dense tree line, watching two uniformed Russian air force officers chatting about something or another. behind me was a huge red and white airplane atop tall wheels/landing gear, it had a big red star on the tail and side, there was a ladder underneath of it that led inside, so i climbed the ladder and walked into an area behind the cockpit, that led into the passenger cabin that was full of Russians of all ages, speaking in Russian. two young blond-haired Russian kids were somewhat rude, bumping into me on the way back to their seats, without a word. out of the crowd i found an American woman, close-cropped auburn hair, dressed in jean jacket and jeans, she led me out of the plane, to a parked white car packed front and back with other people, and she drove us to this mall down the street, it had an international food court section in it, from Europe and Asia and Australia/NZ. i followed one of the other car passengers into an Australian pre-packaged meal store, it had no actual food on display but had pictures of the food packages, with piped-in aromas, and we chatted a bit with the Australian salespeople. i was a bit frustrated that there was no real food there for me to bite into. then i got separated from my mate and walked through a warren of offices with Russian bureaucrats inside. then i found myself in a large waiting area/atria, with the rest of the passengers from the car, our host had taken off with some other woman and went somewhere in that woman's car, leaving her car parked in the lot. we were all wondering what was going on. then i awoke.

^Wow! International dreaming. I notice uniforms - the Russian uniforms at the beginning, then American woman in denim pants & jacket (the USA civilian uniform?). The international mall strikes me as the central piece of the dream.
A mall is an American thing imho. The food is only pics & aromas but no nutrition - Macdonald's et al?

The plane is packed with people and so is the car. Plane and car are both white but plane has red. Driver of car has auburn (red?) hair.

The thing that startles me is your willingness to get into the plane and the car - you go where the action is?

I love that take on empty food in the mall.

Dreamt about going to Clif House Restaurant. Ate only a plate full. And felt full. Looked at the soup. Wanted more. To fill an emotional void

Dreamt that looked at someone lying on the floor of the bus. He was lying down

i dreamt i was in a hotel guest room, a fancy place in England somewhere, and an English TV news crew were there to interview Barack and Michelle Obama, who were both sitting in overstuffed extra-size high-backed EZ-chairs in front of a large Xmas tree gaily decorated in an old-fashioned style. Mrs. Obama, who looked much older than her real waking life self, was going on and on, in some embarrassing detail, about their marital relations, and the president, who was looking dwarfed in the chair that was several sizes too large for him, was visibly embarrassed, he sunk back into his chair and he blanched then reddened, then started moaning softly, "oobyyy DOooobbyyy...." repeatedly, then the Xmas tree behind them morphed into his chair, and the arms on his chair started sprouting tree branches, and they grew over him and covered him up, partially shielding him from the audience who was silently watching the spectacle, then the branches sprouted hands which grabbed the president and hefted him up in the air, he shook like a limp Raggedy Anne doll, his head bobbling every which way, and which now took on the appearance of a Mr. Potatohead doll, and he started stammering "YAMANAMA DINKYDIGGITY POOPYDOOPY POOPITYDOOPITYYY!! !" while everybody just watched him.

Dreamt that menstrual cycle came

i dreamt that i slept with a particular member of WP.


._____.

it was very enjoyable.



i also had thick, long white hair and was much cuter than normal.

I don't think I've ever done anything dream-wise with another active WPer.
