I find that if I wake up at 3 or 4 in the morning and go back to sleep. I have some rather vivid dreams. Some are rather... fun...

Here's one that's bothered me for the better part of a week. I usuallly don't remember my dreams, but this...
WARNING: Disturbing Dream Ahead
I dreamed I was in a slaughterhouse, watching cute little knee-high pigs get cut up into various meat products. This was bad enough. Worse: They started by cutting the pigs in half at the waist. No blood, but the front halves of the pigs were still alive after this, running around on their little front legs, squealing silently, and I could literally feel their pain. (The back halves were dead, though. They were being cut up into meat.) Then, for some unknown reason, they cut off the pigs' little front hooves. By this time, I was bent double with pain, begging someone to cut off the heads and give the pigs mercy, but no one did.
It is, quite possibly, the most disturbing dream I have ever had. It is also possibly one of the reasons why I haven't slept well at all for the past week.

I find that if I wake up at 3 or 4 in the morning and go back to sleep. I have some rather vivid dreams. Some are rather... fun... The Wake Back To Bed method of boosting dream vividity. A great tool for lucid dreaming that. Anyways, onto my dream: Well first, it starts off with me walking with my bro through these school grounds. There's this huge storm all around us, and tornados keeping popping up all over the place, but we just walk casually on into this building. As we chat inside, I notice that a tornado is now heading towards us and is about to hit. I tell my brother to get away from the windows, but he is sort of frozen, so I drag him away and take cover in a doorway Tornado hits, building gets fucked over, I get knocked unconscious. As I come to, I emerge from the rubble with the help of my brother, and start to see a whole bunch of other students coming out of the rubble of a variety of buildings. As I try to get to grips with the situation, I start noticing that all the students are getting angry and forming a mob, but for some reason my brother disappears at this point. As I try to get away from the mob before they notice me, i turn by this corner and suddenly, I encounter three musketeers who are also getting ready to escape. They proceed to ask me if I can help them, to which I accept. They then give me their three guns, to which they told me were their muskets. Basically, I was to shoot the muskets at the rioting students from a cart they had loaded in order to cover them. The guns themselves were wrapped in cloth, so as I got on the cart and were on our way, I decide to unwrap one of the guns to inspect it. What I got wasn't a musket though. Instead, it was some futuristic looking thing with a somewhat weird handle configuration. Soon after I unwrapped and examined it, I saw the mob of students running towards us. As I held the gun properly, I pressed this button on the top of the handle and suddenly, the gun came to life and began to charge up with a high pitched whine and hum. Feeling a little giddy at this point, I calm down a little so to take aim at the approaching crowd. I squeeze the trigger, and BANG! This bright, blue bolt shoots from the gun and this nice explosion is the result from where the bolt struck. Feeling pretty damn giddy at the awesome, I unwrap a second gun and get that charging, so I'm dual-wielding these awesome things, so then this cart being pulled along is now dealing some serious crowd pwnage. Blue bolts, explosions, and my maniacal laughter. I wake up at this point with a smile.

Dreamed my ex and her girlfriend were running into a swamp. They were being chased by huge snakes (subtle, eh?). I ran after to help, was attacked by an alligator, and ran away. Hey, discretion is the greater part of valor, right?

I dreamed I was trying to catch a maglev from my relatives' house in the country back to Sydney, and somehow I ended up in what can loosely be described as RL super smash brothers, in that it's 4 people beating the crap out of each other (myself as one of the participants). Simularity pretty much ends there. All I remember at this point was me beating the crap out of Hulk Hogan, a giant robot version of Mumbo Jumbo (from Banjo-Kazooie) and other assorted peoples who I can't remember (I think Princess Peach was one of them though) using a series of slow-motion throws and punches (sometimes with me and my opponent both leaping into the air at each other in slow motion only to have me punch them across the area or punch them directly into the ground). Then I got my arse handed to me by Mr Bean.
One of the wierdest dreams I've ever had, also one of the most downright awesome. If only I could master lucid dreaming, so so much potential...

I had a dream last night that I lived in a society with very little freedom. People weren't allowed to have pets. Spouses couldn't kiss. Everyone lived in an apartment with gaping windows across the walls so neighbors could see your every move (similar to Rear Window). Citizens generally couldn't do much throughout the day.
I decided to rebel and refused to get rid of my pet ferret, Nancy. (Nancy is an actual ferret I had in real life. He--yes, he--died a few years ago.) I hid him carefully in my home and tried to keep him alive without the knowledge of others.
I was suddenly in a large hallway at my high school, surrounded by an angry mob of students and adults. A teacher I had in eleventh grade was there. He encouraged everyone to write a specific phrase (I can't remember it) on their hand to show that they were computer literate. I strongly disagreed with him on the matter and yelled, "Go fuck yourself!" This enraged the mob around me. I crawled to the right.
As I sat in the hallway, I reached under my shirt and pulled Nancy out. I'd been concealing him there the entire time. He was asleep. The mob saw that I had a pet and grew even angrier. Everyone dove for me and tried to grab the poor ferret. I only tried to keep him out of their reach. Suddenly, I was standing outside my house, and the mob was there with me, still trying to grab Nancy. It became more and more difficult to protect Nancy, and I accidentally let go of him. He scurried off into the woods. I ran a few yards trying to catch him, but it was too late. I knew I'd never find him. I worried that government officials would try to capture and kill him, but I figured they could never find such a small creature in such a large forest.

That is an awesome dream. Sometimes I wish I was not a lucid dreamer so I could have dreams like that.

I had kind of an awesome dream, it took the normal depressing themes of corruption and madness and such from most of my dreams and mixed it in with a dose of Lewis Carrol. I am kind of ruing my inability to write, because it was so damn awesome I feel the need to force it on other people.

I had a very nice dream a few days ago that was well on its way to becoming a lesbian orgy. We had our clothes off and everything.
And then the phone rang.
FML.

I weird dream during a nap the other day. I don't know why, I was at this hotel and it was in the middle of no where, like bad video game landscape outside, just continuous sidewalk and parking lot outside. The only thing outside is a climbing wall. It's 10 feet tall, has a rope, Halloween decorations and prizes attached to it. I climbed it in two steps. I was walking in through the back, which was storage leading to like a kitchen area when two people run out in wedding dresses. I noticed one of them was Peyton Manning, and I was somehow aware it was so the paparazzi in front of the hotel wouldn't notice him. He saw that I recognized him and after he pulls the dress over his head and off gives me a handshake and walks out the back area. He walks past the wall and people notice him. And once he spotted everyone becomes aware of him and all the paparazzi and everyone in the hotel runs up and surrounds him. In moments he's surrounded by 200-300 people and I'm in the back area shaking my head.
I found it strange, 'cause I normally don't dream about real people unless I know them and I don't like the Colts I only know what he looks like 'cause of all the commercials he's in.

The dream I had last night had Edward Cullen in it. *NOOOOOO*
I began in the center of a maze with gray walls and a white floor. Men were creeping around the maze with guns, dressed in camo, peering out from around corners trying to shoot one another. It looked exactly like Call of Duty 4. One guy crossed my path in pursuit of someone else and I wanted to shoot him, though I didn't because I feared others would come after me. I started to move forward but saw another soldier coming toward me, so I crept backward and hid on the other side of a wall.
Apparently we were also looking for something. It was a special red door that would win you the game upon entering. Someone showed me the location of this door; it was outside the maze in a random corner of a diagonal wall. Once I left the maze and headed toward the door, I was able to see the entire room. It looked like something from Doom.
Anyway, I couldn't believe no one else had found this door and entered it quickly. It was merely a bathroom. There was one toilet stall in there. I went inside the stall and it was decorated with streamers and other party items, with a sign that said something along the lines of You win! on the wall behind the toilet. I celebrated my victory in the stall.
But now it was my duty to travel north to New York. I don't know why, but that's what it was. I debated on how I should get there. Flying? No. Driving? Nope. Walking? Of course! I was going to walk to New York. I asked my father to make me a map for the journey, and he gave me one before I set off. This map was huge and impossible to understand, with blue and red lines drawn every which-way. I went on my merry way though.
After walking for a long time, I began to realize just how long this journey would take me. I was standing in the middle of a grassy area surrounded by woods when I realized this. Suddenly, a young guy showed up to help me--Edward Cullen. He walked beside me for a bit, then dashed forward faster than I had ever seen. I ran through the woods to catch up to him, and in a clearing I spoke with him about what he just did. He told me to get on his back, that he could help me get to New York much quicker. I climbed on and away we went.

In last night's dream, it was around 5am and I got up to use the bathroom. There was an open jar of peanut butter in the bathroom, which I thought was odd because I never eat in the bathroom. (In theory this should've put me in lucid dream mode, but nooo...) I go out of the bathroom, and one of my college band friends was there. I asked him why he was there; somehow he had gotten through the security door downstairs and my locked door. He told me all about this big fraud scheme that Wal Mart had done that he had been a part of and they were looking for him and if they found him he would go to jail and so he needed a place to hide out. I suggested he go to my mom's house in the country, no one would ever find him there. So I tried to call my mom to tell her, but couldn't reach her. So we just went there anyway, and there were all these people there who kept talking to her. I was trying to tell her what we were up to and that my friend would need to stay there for a while but she kept ignoring me which ended up in an argument, and that's about where it ended.
That friend is a band director now and married, and as far as I know has never worked for Wal Mart. o.O

The dream I had last night had several FSTDT members. And it was disturbing.
I remember being with Cait and Jeb at first. We were standing in an area with mowed grass and bright sunlight discussing IUD insertion. Then we began practicing. I don't know who or what we were practicing on, but I remember seeing a vagina and shoving something white up there. You didn't have to shove it very far either.
Anyway, after that there were about 10-15 random FSTDT members gathered in one large group. Cait was there crying (what the hell is wrong with me?!) about not being beautiful, and everyone in the group was reassuring her and trying to convince her that she was. She had a blond streak in her bangs that stood out to me.
Later, I was at an amusement park with a few random FSTDT members and some people I know from school. We went on a roller coaster that began by hitting a small hill, doing a sharp turn, and heading up a track that went straight up in the air. When the cars hit the top of that vertical track, they would fall backward and return to the beginning. The ride wasn't very safe at all, and I had to hold tightly to a bar when we hit the top of that vertical track because I would fall out otherwise.
After the roller coaster, I remember randomly walking around the amusement park, which had a river running through the middle of it. I wanted to go on other rides but it was difficult to find any. I remember Jeb and some others heading toward a ride and leaving me behind. And I was sad.

This seems out of character for Jeb. Your dreams should be more accurate.
