Dreams/Nightmares

[Ärväthyyll]

OK, wtf. In my dreams tonight, I attended an annual event I used to go to a lot. I didn't go as a visitor, I just showed some new people where to go. So we arrived at the location of this castle ruin and I took them up some shady paths, commenting that a lot has been fixed/changed, but it's alright, they'll manage.
We ended up in some common room with more people (who were already there), which was now a modern one (not in a castle), talked some, and then heard a noise outside. Somebody went to check it out but didn't return, so we went to investigate. Outside was now a parking lot, like a huge department store one, the sun was shining, and the poor guy that went to check the noise was dead splattered on top of one of the cars. We concluded we cannot completely part, and then we ran away.
While running, I was with anther girl, and I said that although castle Bled is not castle Kamen, we still shouldn't risk doing shortcut through it, so we ran around ... On a pavement under trees by the sea shore ... And by the end of it this wasn't a run for our dear lives anymore, just some friendly chase. Then dunno what happened next. I guess it wasn't a nightmare anymore so my brain decided that the happy dream can be left forgotten. What a wanker.

(Trust me, this is all completely out of order with locations of castles and Slovenian geography in general And the first ruin, even when "fixed/changed", looked nothing like the ruin of Kamen, nor the ruin of Rihemberk in which this annual event was really held once.)

Oh, my. I dreamed I was working in a coffee shop with James Randi. I had picked up the shift for money. I haven't worked in coffee for years, but I'm still unemployed and getting desperate. Randi said he was doing it as a hobby. The shop was one I used to manage 10 years ago, but a lot had changed, so it was a challenge for us to find everything and take care of all the customers. Finally, a woman who usually works at that store came on shift, so I relaxed a bit. I was in the back room stocking, when I started to realize something. The other woman came in and I said, "You know, as real as this all seems, I don't remember waking up this morning. I do remember going to bed late last night, and I would definitely remember having to get up at 4:00 AM to make it here for the opening shift. I'm pretty sure this is a dream."
Apparently, the fact that James Randi was chatting away next to me in an apron making lattes wasn't enough to clue me in. Anyway, since I found myself in the happy circumstance of a lucid dream I decided to make the most of it, like you do. So, I put the moves on the hottest guy in the store. He rejected me. Rudely. I REALLY suck at lucid dreaming.

Dreamed my wife was a smoker,and had been hiding it from me.I put a stop to it by taking any ciggerette she lit and putting it out on my arm.I think that would work in real life as well,but my wife hates smoking.

This was another dream sort of about Finntroll, I was at an open air festival. There was the stage and at the side was a big sign with the bands logo in blue with a white background, that during the dream reminded me of the Finnish flag?
There was a girl on stage with a guitar making announcements, at the front of the stage was a little stand selling band merchandise.
I was sat with a bunch of people drinking a few beers did not know any of them and we had been discussing were we where camping.

I had a dream about Mats today Now how did you end up in there?

Anyways, I was travelling with a guy and we were couch-surfing or something at Mats' place. But it was all not-very-Mats-like. First of all, Mats, you were Canadian, living somewhere in Canada. In a big flat, but still not a house. And you were much older than you are in real life, plus you had a whole Einstein set of grey hair.
We talked about going out to eat and you said also your son will be joining us, and you told me I should know him because he used to live near me. He ended up being a kid that lived here in the house next door but moved away long ago.
You took us to some restaurant as well, a very bright fast food place. Other people joined as well. Nobody in particular, but my co-traveller was annoyed because he didn't know anyone while you and I did (so I guess they might have been Trollboarders or something). The food I got on my plate was apparently chicken & curry sandwich & chips. You found it hilarious because you overheard the waiter saying something weird in connection to the meat in my sandwich, so I didn't dare to eat it.
Later the waiter urged us to take the dirty plates to the kitchen ourselves, but that was all so bizarre (and you didn't come along) so I won't go into details.
I remember returning to the apartment with my friend and we were wondering if you'll be worried or angry, but dunno why. And that's it

Mats, still pimpin after all these years, even in dreams. Share your secrets with me please!

I had a wild dream last night as well, possibly due to the large amount of cold medicine I have been consuming.

Was in a hospital, ironic due to my current illness, and apparently there were some monsters around. These monsters reminded me of some Lovecraft writings. Somehow I wounded one of them in defense but in my departure could not find any survivors to stand with me. I managed to escape the building and ran around gathering support and calling in the military. The dream ended as we were waiting for the spec ops guys to bring the fire.

Sometimes I hate these dreams because I would like to know how the situation ends. My guess is victory as the US military is incredibly effective at destroying shit. But it would have been great to be a part of the forward offensive and clearing the building like I was in Call of Duty or something.

I'm usually the man of people's nightmares

I'd say with my amateur Jungian analysis filter on that you view me(or your internet perception of me)as a sort of uncle figure,Which if true is flattering!However i can't help but think i'd let you down in real life-i am crabby and antisocial,and not a good host.I would like to live in Canada though-they have a govt there that actually does something for the people that elected them.

We are indeed related then

This was particulary odd me and my girlfriend had gone to the cinema, part way through thr film it starts to jump and the picture is going a tad bit funny. Only we are standing outside looking through a glass framed door watching very small people walking along a pavement We go outside and the projetion equipment is on the outside of the building and the film has broken.
Later on a women my girlfriend knows who travels on the bus kills someone, and all of a sudden we are following her through this very neat wood were the trees are in squares and little trackways, and this women is driving around on a small yellow forklift truck.
Then my girlfriend goes away for a day it is very sunny and she comes back with lots of brightly coloured gifts.

Me and my Girlfriend were on holiday in Finland, in a city think it might of been Helsinki. I kept getting lost and could not find GF anywhere, I became more and more stressed. Found GF walking along a street and we then went to a big church in the dream it looked very ornate, during this visit I wanted to by a Finnish phrase book. So after the church my GF vanishes again I hear someone call her name, a man was walking toward us, I am then walking around Helsinki with two bits of scaffold poles and a board that looks a bit like sledge.
I have a folder full of notes and little drawings I have done, I am sitting down in this small side street. When this black man and his wife walk who are arguing constantly, looks down at my pictures makes a comment about how childish my drawings are then walks off.
