I dreamed we were all planning a move and were debating where in the Middle East to move to. It was narrowed down to Dubai or Qatar. Some people were also arguing for Africa - either Zimbabwe or Dakar. We were all siting around Mike & Kristen's house with brochures arguing about it. lizinthelibrary@idkfa.com (lizinthelibrary) Perchance to Dream Wed, 29 Jul 2015 00:04:35 -0800 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=7103&msg_id=7103 http://www.idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=7090&msg_id=7091 nononononono kitacek@idkfa.com (kitacek) Perchance to Dream Thu, 09 Jul 2015 19:48:25 -0800 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=7090&msg_id=7091 http://www.idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=7090&msg_id=7090 So, I'm on a massive, industrial ship. Almost as big as a cruise ship, but fitting more a fishing or shipping purpose. Lots of metal piping and corrugated metal walkways. In this case, though, the ship is no long an industrial ship. It is instead a "university" ship, where all of the facilities have been converted into classrooms and lecture halls. Aside from a skeleton crew of workers and university staff, the ship is populated by college students. And, as students tend to be, they are incredibly lazy. Rather than walking up the stairways from student quarters to the classrooms, a few dozen board the freight elevator and ride it up. Students rush on to make it before the slow-moving elevator starts. "Oh hey, look at that ancient history." Somebody is playfully going through my wallet, and looking at my old student IDs as we ascend. "Yeah," is all I have to say in response. "Pretty old." Suddenly, there is a noise, and the freight elevator jolts. "What was that?" somebody asks. The sound from the elevator rises. "It's the last hop before a gymnast jumps," I say. Suddenly, a student leaning on a rail passes out. Then another, his eyes rolling back in his head. Something in the air, I think. Another one goes limp, and tumbles backward. I breathe in and hold my breath, and dive forward to try to catch them. I lose consciousness just as I catch them. ---- 2:26AM kaiden@idkfa.com (kaiden) Perchance to Dream Thu, 09 Jul 2015 17:04:43 -0800 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=7090&msg_id=7090 http://www.idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=6828&msg_id=6829 This is fucked up.

A big group of us are wandering around something similar to one of those indoor/outdoor malls. Mostly it was the same group as was just in Vegas. Someone mentions being hungry and they know this great milkshake place up ahead. So we all make our way to this really strange restaurant, it was decorated a little bit like Willy Wonka's factory from Tim Burton's version. The specialty was milkshakes there, but they would put either dead or unconscious kittens in each clear cup. The cups had some kind of stirring or vortex system that would twist the kittens around in circles and you could see them spin around and around. When you ordered your drink the server would hand you your kitten to hold and pet while you waited, then when the cup was ready they would take it back and somehow incapacitate it. Then hand your drink to you with this swirling kitten in it. I think the milkshake did taste really good, I ordered chocolate malt and got a tabby kitten in it.

The place is huge, more like an apartment building rather than a house. In fact, other people lived there, renting from them (apparently). Helping them move out, there is a ton of stuff left behind by previous tenants, especially in the shared storage space in the attic. So I'm tasked with cleaning out the attic. In it, I find the storage unit for a person I vaguely remember: a Bulgarian composer. I open his unit to find a small, darkened theater, filled with dusty seats and a small stage. Of course, the light switch doesn't work. My parents tell me that there is an entertainment center in here that I should look at to see if I want it. The guy was strange, and the theater is pretty creepy, but I walk in further. Free furniture, after all. I walk further, peering into the darkness, when the stage suddenly comes to life. Strangely real animatronic creates start dancing and gyrating on stage to some bizarre, otherworldy ambient music. The characters follow me with their eyes. I wake up. 3:30am. Write an email to myself.

Only it's more like a resort for smart people than an actual space station to do science on. Like where the Battle School kids would go if they needed a vacation. There are, inexplicably, reflection pools, a full service bar, and (somehow) a panoramic night view of all of the planets. No beds, though. Only sleeping bags. And you slept in the halls. Anyhow. It was kinda boring. All anybody ever did was talk back and forth to each other in lines from Shakespeare. I don't know why I rated enough to make it to the vacation station, but I felt a little out of my element. kaiden@idkfa.com (kaiden) Perchance to Dream Thu, 16 Oct 2014 13:27:55 -0800 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=6785&msg_id=6785 http://www.idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=6684&msg_id=6684 So I'm in the room I lived in during college. The house has become a dorm, strangely enough. A bunch of college kids are hanging out in the hallway, and the room itself. I'm moving back in. Josh: "I used to live here. Back when I went to school.

Last night I dreamed I had the ability to slide through dimensions to alternate realities through portholes I could see. Sometimes when you slid through a porthole it was by accident, othertimes on purpose to run away from danger. And sometimes you were still yourself, but most of the time when you slid through a porthole to a new reality/dimension you were someone new. Thus for most of the dream I was Captain Kirk going between versions of the Enterprise and other starships. At one point I stole a gun that allowed me to create my own reality/dimension portholes and it created a bubble atmosphere so I could fly through space without a space ship. So awesome. Because I kept accidentally trying to fly my spaceship through portholes only to discover on the other side that my spaceship was now stuck inside a building or cave or what not. I woke up sad that it didn't exist even as a tv show. I've always loved alternate reality stories, episodes of tv where they go to an alternate universe, and even Sliders (well up until the third season). lizinthelibrary@idkfa.com (lizinthelibrary) Perchance to Dream Thu, 06 Mar 2014 15:18:04 -0900 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=6117&msg_id=6117 http://www.idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=6025&msg_id=6025 So I'm getting out of my car. It's raining, and I'm late for work. I'm wearing a Sherlock-esque high-collar trench coat. Danny Concannon is getting out of the car next to me, equally hurried. The problem is, I forget to set my e-brake. And my car starts rolling towards the beach. I sprint after it, but lose track as it gets redirected by a guardrail into a wooded area. I follow after it, but it leaves a trail of destruction through the forest. I pop out on a beach. A lady is fishing. I ask her if she saw my car. She says no, but puts down her fishing rod and offers to help me find it. kaiden@idkfa.com (kaiden) Perchance to Dream Tue, 18 Feb 2014 12:23:12 -0900 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=6025&msg_id=6025 http://www.idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=5999&msg_id=6014 AND SO WE DRINK DEEP AND DARK. kaiden@idkfa.com (kaiden) Perchance to Dream Fri, 14 Feb 2014 02:06:25 -0900 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=5999&msg_id=6014 http://www.idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=5999&msg_id=6007 THIS IS WHAT YOU GET FOR DRINKING TEA INSTEAD OF COFFEE.

I'm waiting for them in some lobby. People are bustling. Turns out: it's the green room for the Blue Man Group. A man in blueface is smoking, reading a magazine in between acts. Someone sees that I'm out of place, and walks up to me. "You a fan of the show?" she asks. She isn't dressed like I performer. I assume she is a stage manager, or an assistant. "I'm just waiting for my cousin." I realize too late that I have marshmallow in my stubble, and start trying to pick it out. "Oh. Well, you should wait for number 253," she says. I have no idea what she's talking about, and I guess my face shows that fact. "You haven't seen it before? I'll show you." She proceeds to walk me out of the building into the parking lot. Cars are going by, but in the wrong direction for Northern Lights. I try to make a comment, but she's already doing flips. Another performer walks up to me and gives me a hug, then sets me down on the bench while the stage manager is doing backflips. "She likes you. You treat her right, you hear me?" the performer says. kaiden@idkfa.com (kaiden) Perchance to Dream Thu, 13 Feb 2014 12:59:47 -0900 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=5999&msg_id=5999 http://www.idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=5946&msg_id=5946 I dreamed a parrot was attacking my spine. kaiden@idkfa.com (kaiden) Perchance to Dream Wed, 29 Jan 2014 14:40:32 -0900 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=5946&msg_id=5946 http://www.idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=5821&msg_id=5827 I feel like you've been reading House of Leaves again, and it has invaded your dreams. conrad@idkfa.com (conrad) Perchance to Dream Wed, 08 Jan 2014 19:20:26 -0900 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=5821&msg_id=5827 http://www.idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=5821&msg_id=5823 Mine are usually about zombies.

A vine is playing over and over, captured just as the explosion hit. There is no audio, but shows four teenagers lining up for the camera just as the bomb goes off. A bright light flashes behind them, and they turn around to face it. They hold hands as a wave hits, graphically disentigrating their bodies. Video corruption and compression artifacts follow. The video stops, then repeats. Another video is playing beside it. A professor talks about the likelihood of it being a sophisticated forgery, conveniently capitalizing on the media frenzy and political aftermath. Another man talks about how it is a single, brilliant, shared magical moment at the end of the lives of four strangers. --- 4:30am, terrible headache. kaiden@idkfa.com (kaiden) Perchance to Dream Wed, 08 Jan 2014 12:36:40 -0900 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=5821&msg_id=5821 http://www.idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=5474&msg_id=5478 I have an announcement to make!

That's a subconscious fear I haven't heard before. kaiden@idkfa.com (kaiden) Perchance to Dream Mon, 09 Jan 2012 03:45:08 -0900 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=3913&msg_id=3916 http://www.idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=3913&msg_id=3913 I only remember this one part of my dream last night, and I thought it was share-worthy only because it scared me so badly: I somehow got under a train (maybe it was because I slipped on a berm of snow?) and it started to move. I rolled with the train to keep myself from being sliced in half, but then there was something on the tracks I had to maneuver my body over. I did this with success, and ended up getting out from under the train, but I woke up very stressed out. ellis@idkfa.com (ellis) Perchance to Dream Mon, 09 Jan 2012 02:04:22 -0900 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=3913&msg_id=3913 http://www.idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=3642&msg_id=3642 So we're at an aquarium, on some type of field trip. The guide is telling us something about how the whale shark lives in a sort of symbiosis with the giant squid. And that the temperature and acidity of their environments is kept in balance by some biological feedback loop. The guide demonstrates that by increasing the temperature of the tank (a tank large enough to house both a whale shark and giant squid, mind you). At the same time, she dials up a robotic vehicle with a camera on it, and starts piloting it around the tank. She follows around the whale shark for a while, and eventually pilots the robot around to the whale shark's mouth, which has some non-obvious indicator of the immediate affects of the temperature change. "Alright, so that's on a screen, but who wants to see it for themselves? Let's get changed, and meet me in the tank." My stomach sinks, as my fears of water, suffocation, and large, benthic creatures kick into gear. I wake up, just as I dive underwater and start to feel short of breath. kaiden@idkfa.com (kaiden) Perchance to Dream Wed, 05 Oct 2011 12:46:41 -0800 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=3642&msg_id=3642 http://www.idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=2788&msg_id=2808 I say play more Lego Harry Potter. See how far the rabbit hole goes ;) Scrotor@idkfa.com (Scrotor) Perchance to Dream Sat, 14 May 2011 21:28:25 -0800 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=2788&msg_id=2808 http://www.idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=2788&msg_id=2788 I think I need to stop playing Lego Harry Potter. I was dreaming that I was in a circus/freak show (I think because of the blood blisters from the frisbee) and I didn't have a real freak thing. So then this guy shows up with two drum sticks that he taps together and could controll a swarm of flys by pointing them at things (like a wand, hence Harry Potter). To control the flys he wrote the number One, Two, Three and so on to the number of flys. So I accept them from him but then he violently turns into a bird of some sort and dies. Then hurricane Katrina is about to hit the building and a cat starts helping me clean up, it then turns into a lady and she says she has blisters on her butt. At that point I realize she's my familiar. Then I wake up late to work.
