What's the last weirdest dream you had?

^^^were your plates stolen in real life?

No, but they're at my mother's house because I thought my ex was going to steal them when we split in 1997.

We bought them together.

I suppose I should get them back.

how much does your mother like them?

I had a dream last night I had a cat. I was petting him and I remembered that I had forgotten to feed him the night before, but he never meowed about it and he was perfectly fine. I gave him extra food.

I've been wanting a cat lately, but I don't want to deal with a litterbox and I don't think the cat would enjoy being around children.

Two dreams this morning. Actually fractions of dreams.

In one part of a dream, I was sitting at a table with a bunch of other people eating a meal family style. I only knew one other person, my cousin, sitting to my left. He asked for something down the table to my right and I repeated it. The woman to my right got into a hissy fit because she thought my cousin was asking her for her plate so he could take some food off of it.

At Thanksgiving a few years ago we had a couple of college baseball players from New York City eating with us. They sat across from each other in the middle of three tables pushed together and never passed a thing. If we wanted something on the other end of the table, we had to get up and go get it because the concept of taking the food and passing it on was something they had never encountered. We now set up the food as a buffet so that you fill your plate and sit down and nobody has to pass the food. So my guess is that the above dream drew on this experience.

The other dream was more topical. I dreamed that there was a coronavirus that was very close to the covid-19 but that only gave you a slight cold. However, if you had been infected with that virus in the past, it would confer a partial immunity to the covid-19 virus as well. If you had the first virus, then any infection with the covid-19 would be extremely mild and barely noticeable. In the dream, those countries in which the milder virus had been widespread, the death rate from covid-19 was much lower than in other countries in which the milder virus was rare.

So in the dream, there was a massive effort to expose as many as possible to the milder virus to protect them from covid-19.

In the context of (sleep) dreams, the term 'weird' can be a relative term - that is if (sleep) dreams most often contained normal, everyday familiar content, it can be considered well...........weird.

Last night I dreamed that I was driving a south of town and headed south. The truck was actually self driving and I was there to control it.

At some point on the highway, it stopped. I got out to check out why and it took off without me. I tried to catch it but couldn't.

Eventually, a car came along and stopped and gave me a ride to town. I couldn't find everyone so I asked at the convenience store (we only have the one) and was told that they were all out at a big party north of town. So I caught a ride out to the party.

They were surprised to see me because they thought I was working. I told them what happened and they convinced me that I needed to find the truck. One of them gave me a ride back to where I was stranded.

I started walking south from there and after a while someone came along and gave me a ride for a few miles. Then some more walking and flagged down someone driving north to ask about the truck. By this time it was dark. I was told that they saw the truck sitting on the road about ten miles to the south so they gave me a ride to the truck.

I climbed in and started to continue when I realized that I wouldn't arrive in time to deliver the contents. So I turned around and drove back to the party. Someone asked me what I was carrying and I answered "Just some Pappy's" (Pappy Van Winkle bourbon). I spent the rest of the night fighting everyone to keep them from drinking the cargo.

I invited the postman into my house for a visit. We were looking at a series of little rubber collector dolls which you were supposed to sit over the edge of the kitchen countertop with their knees bent. I had a few of them and he was really impressed. I was trying to buy one which was Betty from Betty & Veronica. (In real life I don't even know who that is, but I know the name). The Betty doll had short dark hair. I wanted it badly but it was hard to find. When the postman left I chased him on the road because I realised it was his birthday and I had a gift for him. I gave him a new down-filled duvet in one of those clear, zippered packages. I had tied a white bow onto the handle. I said he likely needed a new duvet because it would be tiring to be a postman and walk all day. He thanked me but said that he gets really hot at night and doesn't like a lot of covers. He refused the gift. I was thinking of getting him a thin muscle shirt to sleep in when I woke up.

I vaguely recall having the song "STOP - Oh yes - wait a minute Mr. Postman!" in my head as I followed him with the duvet.

In real life I don't know my postman and in fact I think it's a woman. I have no idea where this persona came from.

^^^that is a FASCINATING dream the one i had evaporated as soon as i got up out of bed. a pity as the traces it left behind were of a very deep dream.

The dolls were kind of the same idea as "Elf on the Shelf", but they were little people you hooked over the edge of your kitchen countertop. The Betty doll played guitar and she was a collectors' item of some sort. I had about six in total but not the illustrious Betty.

^^^mebbe that is a message from your higher spirit telling you of a good business opportunity?

i keep having dreams that evaporate before i can get to the puter to log them. drat.

That happens to me all the time.

The odd thing is that now when I'm dreaming, part of the dream includes the idea of remembering it long enough to post it here!

dreamt i was in heaven somewhere, naked, walking amongst cherry blossom trees in full view, i knew i was in heaven, but suddenly the calm was disturbed by a bunch of ominously buzzing bees in the trees that en masse took off from the blossoms and alighted all over my nekkid body, and briefly i thought i was in hell, then all of a sudden, a bunch of telepathic thoughts shouted at me "NO STINGS! NO STINGS!" IOW the bees were all telling me they weren't gonna sting me, they just dug me, is all.

i dreamt i was in a big colorless, soundless, thoughtless void. a place where even darkness did not register, but just the same there was the bare awareness of being. this was about as stripped-down an experience of consciousness one can have.

I had a dream that I guess was covid-19 related. I dreamed that I woke up one morning and everyone was gone but me.
