Does anyone ever dream in such a way that they don't play into the picture at all? That is, the dream isn't about them in any way even with them as merely an observer?

In my case, the only such dreams I can think of like this were after seeing the movie Fantasia the first time. For weeks afterwards, my dreams were mostly of either the movie itself or of animations with classical music that could have been in the movie.

Visiting a large sculpture studio, and the artist sculptor was up on a ladder creating an intricately realistic ice sculpture of an explorer, such as Powell, or Lewis or Clark, or the like. Just as he finished the details, he took the large chain saw and destroyed the statue before my eyes, and chunks of icy head, shoulders, arms and hands all came raining down on me.

Here's one. I had a dream that my friend and I were driving through the streets of Los Angeles/its suburbs (Crenshaw Boulevard, to be specific). We were on the blvd, and my friend driving the car (either a Lamborghini Murcielago or a Ferrari 360 Modena) crashed into a pole near a shopping mall. Yes.

It wasn't last night, but was just now in my afternoon nap.

In my dream I was browsing WP and trying to do something difficult but couldn't do it and felt very frustrated. I cannot remember whatever it was now. When I woke up, I felt so relieved. I guess I've been using WP too much recently.

My favorite singer and I dancing to Lonestar Amazed. It was a very strange dream. He was in a dazzling white tux and I was in a evening gown.

In spite of not being a pilot, I dreamed I was flying a helicopter across a sea and I was worried about whether or not I had the fuel to make it all the way across.

I do know a pilot who was crossing the Gulf of Mexico in a helicopter years ago. The distance across was too far for the normal range, but he loaded a couple of barrels of jet fuel in the cabin and took along a passenger so that the passenger could manually pump the jet fuel into the fuel tanks.

Last night, I dreamt my hair looked fine at first glance, but when I lifted up the top layer, there were spots underneath all over my scalp where it was falling out in big clumps. Underneath my hair, my skull was also really misshaped and deformed.

I had a very upsetting dream this morning just before I woke up.

I dreamt that some man broke into my house and came in my bedroom. He was on top of me trying to put his hand over my mouth. I was too strong for this guy who had a lot of trouble controlling me. We tussled for a while when I grabbed my homemade stun gun which didn't work when I pressed the button. So I started jabbing him in the side of his face. And the dream ended.

Comment: The first thing I did this morning was put my homemade stun gun next to my bed again since it was out of reach and checked it to see if there was still battery life. Since I'm into electronics I bought this stun gun in a kit that had the schematic. It didn't come with a circuit board so I had to etch the circuit board myself. But it wasn't without problems because I don't think the company thought anyone that bought these were smart enough to find why it didn't work. But, I notice that the schematic was showing a resister where a capacitor should have been and wrote the company about their mistake.


It is so scary because their are so many sick people around.

I dreamt that when I was leaving for school in the morning I discovered that somebody had left dozens of very large cardboard boxes filled with empty Christmas tree ornament packages all around our house. Since recycling is one of my assigned chores I panicked and began collecting them as best I could. Then our neighbor came over and I asked him if he saw who did this and he said yes, he did. Then suddenly I was at the bottom of a hill and I needed to get back into our house to see what time it was, but all the cardboard boxes were blocking my path. Then I really freaked and woke up.

I dreamed that I restored my old '64 International C-900 Pickup like the one in this video,

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OE6WMuKjyUw[/youtube]

(except mine was originally gray and had been repainted to be a cream color) and was on an extended road trip in it around Texas staying with people I know or in motels or camping out wherever I happened to stop for the night.

It was a great dream. (I'm really thinking about restoring it. I haven't decided on a color to use, though. I might go for a maroon body with a white top.)

3 dreams:

1. I had a dream I was assassinating a celebrity JFK-style. It was in Mexico City, near some sort of plaza with a statue, I was in some sort of apartment building. I had my sniper rifle, aimed the gun, got a clean head shot, and all hell broke loose. After that, a number of events showing political fallout began happening, including World War III.

2. I had a dream I was on some sort of humanitarian mission to Syria, with one of my friends whose name is Seth, Steve Smith from American Dad (yes, he was still in his animated form), and some other guy. While we were in our bunker, the Syrian Army began shelling the bunker with their guns, including turrets. Somehow, the roof blew up, and a floating house with Syrian rebels came to our rescue. We escaped to a nearby airport and all got on a plane to Washington DC, and the ending theme for Star Wars IV - A New Hope started playing.

3. Because of all the paranoia from the Boston bombings, I had a really scary one, and please don't take this the wrong way. I went to school in the morning, and there was news that more than 100 students were killed at the nearby middle school from a release of a poisonous gas. Suddenly, we were all told to evacuate because there was a release of poisonous gas in my high school. Luckily, because I was in an unaffected area, I got out unharmed. However, I saw a lot of police, firefighters, paramedics, body-bags. It wasn't pretty. It turned out that a substitute teacher somehow accidentally released the poisonous gas. Very scary.

None of these were nightmares, since I woke up without any sort of fear.

I had a weird dream last night. Surprised that I remembered it since I had it so early in the night.

4/19/2013: Dreamt that I was at my backdoor looking out the window just to see all of the sides on my shed gone with just the roof intact sitting on the vertical beams of wood attached to the floor. Everything, except my backhoe loader was gone. When I stepped outside and looked next door where my brother lives, I notice that his tractor lawn mower was tipped on its side with the tarp partly pulled back exposing the rear end that had been vandalized. I then started looking at my shed again with the missing sides where the door at my right side was open and flopping around. I noticed that the beams that was supporting the roof was beginning to lean quite a bit so I went over to try to shut the door to support the structure and keep it from collapsing. I was really struggling then I woke up.


Since my brother is in this dream I will be putting it in my dreams about my brother in my dream diary and I have gotten quite a collection now.

Last night I dreamt I was fighting the Taliban in Afganistan. It was a long dream with multiple actions but at the end I was about to be over-run and had sleep paralysis and could not cock the rifle. I twisted and turned futilely to break the paralysis, but gave up as I saw they were only a few yards away and running towards me. Unable to do anything else I flopped onto my back and stared up into a cloudless sky trying to forget it would be soon full of angry faces and flames of fire. I do not remember anything else and guess I woke up before they came.

Are discriptions of dreams sometimes taken away from this thread? Mine disappered.
