This post is inspired by Jae's post on her own blog. Considering that we're all relatively... "odd" folk, I'm sure we've all had strange dreams. I mean, I know that I have... some of them actually concern me. This post is just going to be about a few notable ones that I've had.
The first one I'd like to mention was from way back when I was in preschool... so I was either three or four. I found myself standing in a nice backyard with this nice, luscious green grass. In the middle of this yard, a picnic was set up with pretty much everyone from Blue's Clues hanging around. I was so excited but when I approached them, they all turned around revealing grotesque zombies. It scared me. Bad. I still remember it over ten years later... that has got to say something.
Another one that comes to mind happened less than a year ago. This was also on a scarier spectrum of dreams, but from the times I've told other people about it, they find it immensely amusing so it seems like a good one to recall. I was inside of my city's mall. It was after hours and entirely empty except for a candy stand that was set up in the middle with a guy running it. This guy here had a big red button and he was obviously evil. He kept going on about how screwed I was and how I had lost and when I disagreed with this, he pressed his lovely big red button. That was when all the gummy bears at his candy cart to came to life and came at me.
I'm pretty sure that's why people find this dream so amusing.
Along with those little gummy bears (they weren't really much of a threat because of their size), ginormous robotic looking gummy bears came up from behind me. I managed to escape into an empty movie theater, where I met up with some random girl who looked about twelve. We struggled to keep the door shut as the robo gummy bear tried to break in. But alas, Mr. Robo-Gummy broke in and just when he was cornering me and anonymous twelve-year-old, the dream ended. Don't judge--it was legitimately freaky. For me, at least.
Dream numeral three. I'm not sure if I was in some attic or not, but it was a small, crowded, dark space filled with old holiday decorations. There was this downright freaky puppet bunny dealio that was covered in cobwebs and looking entirely neglected and abandoned. This psychotic bunny puppet thing was floating in the air and, naturally, was coming towards me. There was this empty feeling in my heart and I suddenly felt cold... sort of like the feeling described in Harry Potter anytime the dementors join the picture. I was really downright scared but I realized that it was a dream... a nightmare more like it and I knew how it was going to end. I had the great idea to speed the process up and ran up to the demented bunny and gave it a hug, expecting the dream to be over immediately. This didn't happen though, and I was stuck in this perpetual hug of pure emptiness feeling.
So, yeah. Those are three of my dreams that I happen to remember quite clearly an I find interesting enough to share. So, Jae, Lindsay, any dreams you'd like to share? Dreams are interesting in my opinion, so if you two could elaborate on some notable ones, I'd appreciate it.
Okay, so A&Q time... You know, answer and question because that's how it works and... yeah.
Answering Lindsay's question, I would definitely be Hermes. When I was younger, I was obsessed with the idea of messengers and what's a better way to do it than with winged shoes. Plus the whole stealing the cow thing he pulled off the day after he was born (I'm pretty sure that was when, at least) getting him recognized and soon up to hte ranks was pretty neat.
My Q: What would you consider your one guilty pleasure?
'Kay, thanks for reading.
