Do you know when you're dreaming?

Man, you had to bring it up. My friends make fun of me for my dreams. I always have vivid dreams, and I dream a bunch of them every night. I usually remember them too. Since it's always good for a laugh, I'll share my most common recurring "nightmares"...

I always dream that I'm taking a dump in public. The urge just hits me suddenly and I can't hold it any longer. So I find myself in strange situations in strange places and I just have to go, so I do. One example from a couple years ago:

It hits me as I'm in the airport waiting for a flight. I run to this little bathroom that is the size of a very small janitor's closet. And it has brooms and everything. I sit on the pot, but as I sit down, there's no room to shut the door because my legs are in the way. And there's a ton of people in the terminal walking by laughing at me as I do my business. And the brooms are all falling down and pushing the door open wider.

Another good one: I'm at McDonalds about to order some food and it hits me. I run to the stall, which happens to be in the middle of the dining area where everybody eats. So I open the stall door, shut it, sit down and start the business. Then I realize that the stall walls are all made of glass, and everybody sitting around me is watching me (and laughing) as they try to eat their food.

And I think the one that I remember the most: I'm at a friend's house back in high school. There is one bathroom in the house, and it's in his parent's bedroom. My friend ends up having to go real bad, so he hits the bathroom first. As he's in there, the urge hits me BAD! I mean it's coming right now! So I bang on the door and tell him he has to get out NOW! But he doesn't get out cuz he's not finished yet. So I panic, look around for somewhere good to go. And I open the drawer in his parent's end-table by the bed and go to town. Just then, his mom walks in and yells at me "What are you doing Tom???" Then I wake up.

And to answer everyone's question...No, I have never woken up with a mess in my drawers. Thankfully.

Don't worry Tom.....

Sometimes I'll realize Im dreaming and i'll be able to make decisions to change the dream.

I remember when I was small (5-6ish) I had a nightmare that I was in some log cabin and these evil bad guys were after me. I was scared to death..it was one of those where you run and run and run but you can never get away, and they're always getting closer, but never quite get you. anyway, after a while I realized I ws dreaming, and I whip out a TV remote and change the channel, and it scares the guys and they run away.

Also as far as dreaming about going to the bathroom, I did that once. I was probably 13 or 14, and on a camping trip. I was dreaming I had to pee BAD, so I run to the bathroom and let it flow. Then I felt something wet and warm on my legs and woke up...I had peed A LOT inside my sleeping bag and all over me. It was horrible.

I used to be on some allergy medicine, and the main side effect was drowsiness...I had to quit taking it when I got my driver's license. Anyway, I had some crazy dreams for several years while I was taking that medicine.

Now either I dont dream as much, or I dont remember them. I dunno.

I love dreams... I usually cannot remember what my dream was, only the fact that I did have one.. that gets frustrating..

I seem to have very real, very vivid dreams.. sometimes I cant tell if they are real or not, thats how detailed they are to me.. Another thing that seems to happen to me, is that my dreams seem to happen in groups. Like I wont have any, or wont remember having any dreams for months, and then for like 3 or 4 weeks, every night I have some really vivid dreams. Im currently in my vivid dream stage, lately I have been having some pretty fun/interesting dreams. I will wake up from one, and get up to go take a wizz, then I go back to sleep, and have another great dream!

Last night, I was criss-crossing the country by hopping on trains and riding the rails! It was so real, I could FEEL the movement of the train, I could hear the clanks, bangs, and other assorted noises.. I could sense the danger of trying to hop onto the moving train as it was starting to pull ot of the station, and I can remember getting off in various cities and doing a little exploring, before hopping another train and heading on!

it was a really cool dream.. but I only remember a few parts of it.

the night before.. I had a dream that I was driving my car up this huge overpass.. the overpass was like 5 stories tall, and banked so much that by looking out the driver side window, you were seeing the ground.. and I was going so fast that my car kept leaving the road, and I would sail right over the cement edge and start heading to the ground, except in my dream, as soon as I realized that I was going over the edge of the overpass, the dream would start all over again, and I would be at the bottom of the overpass starting to build up speed to try to get over it..

it was like a film loop that kept going over and over and over.. weird.

Dont know what will be playing in my head tonight... hopefully it involves a hot tub, and some hotties!

later
