Never mind? What aren't we minding? That was what was funny about Emily, how much detail was presented before the "never mind". So....?

Cool...a wildcard thread 


 We had a little wind storm the other day here in the NW,
power was out for about 25 hours.


  While napping I had a dream  I was sleeping during the outage...woke up..and the power was back 
 Then I woke up for real...only to face 18 more hours of  the darkness.


Dreams within dreams are a trip.


I also had a dream I started a metal band named "Luffa" 


...Nevermind

I tried to link to a shot I saved of a graphic; the link went somewhere else, so I gave up.

For the record, it was, top to bottom, a row of Marching Bears (Bear his own self insisted they are marching, and not dancing as most say), "Have a Jerry Christmas", a Stealie in a Santa hat, "And a Happy New Weir", and another row of bears.

And that's a big 10-4 on dreams-in-dreams, Elwood; I needed back surgery but had no insurance for 4 years, so I took a bunch of opioids so I could function.  A common thing was to dream that I woke up, looked at Her, and then spent a long time struggling to turn over to get up; I mean, I just could not get to the other side.  Just as I finally got there, I would wake up, look at Her, spend a long time.......rinse & repeat ad nauseum.

 Hehe...We are so smart we can fool ourselves 


May your tubes nicely glow,

I also experience the “dream within a dream” thing on the regular.
Sometimes it is rather unsettling... then it fades.

I don't sleep long enough to dream anymore... 2-3 hours at a stretch seems to be the ticket. There's a bottle of pills on the kitchen table that would fix that, but I'm afraid would present a new set of problems.


Here's my poison - popsicles. I discovered them after surgery. A very special friend brought them for my raw throat, but they I swear they are better than opioids. (and more addictive!) I could eat one of these and go back to sleep. Go figure. A little free advertising for Outshine... no idea if they are nationwide or just local/regional. Kroger carries them here in Virginia.

Best dreams I have are during what I call "Second Sleep".  I generally am wide awake at two am so will get up than and have some coffee and putz around.   After a couple of hours I'll sometimes go back to bed and fall asleep.  It's during this second sleep that I have some downright crazy, intense and vivid dreams.

And don't forget to "swim" in the air.  Flying was a lifelong dream into my 40s, but somehow that one dropped away then.

My whole life I had total recall of my dreams; I could tell you now about ones I had when I was 5 (and that's more than a week ago now.....).  Then I started the above-referenced narcotic regimen, and for 4 years they got _really_ weird; the dream-in-a-dream ones were the tame end of the spectrum by far.  Got insurance, got the second surgery, stopped the pills - and now I can never remember them.
