weird dreams
OK, so I know that listening to people talk about their dreams can be really boring to other people who didn't experience those dreams first hand. But I've been having some really WEIRD dreams, three nights in a row. I suppose some of that may be attributed to the fact that I have been watching an episode or two of the TV show "Angel" right before falling asleep. At least, that really explains the dream that involved characters from Angel. OK, here ya go:
Night 1: Like an Angel episode, complete with Angel characters. I am an observer. Ended with Cordelia staking Angel, killing him even though he was not evil. Switch to... a bunch of ADPi girls sitting around a huge buffet table (they weren't ADPi girls I know, but I knew in my head that they were in ADPi). Table FULL of all different kinds of food. Ceremony with food involved picking up each type of food (the only ones i remember are S'mores and strawberries) and explaining their symbolic ADPi meaning, then eating it (which in my head was ADPi initiation...but unfortunately for us, that's not exactly how it goes). Very odd.
Night 2: I am painting a bench black. Or sometimes blue. The color switches...sometimes when i look down at the bench it's black, other times the same painted area is blue. I am leaning on the back part of the bench with my hand. I pull my hand up, and the palm is full of painful splinters (this is the second time in the past few weeks that I have a dream involving injury to my left palm). I pull all the splinters out of my palm one by one. Switch to...A mother squirrel trying to teach its baby how to jump from one branch to another. The mother squirrel holds the baby, and then throws it to another branch, where the baby must hang on. This happens several times. Just when the baby is about to try jumping by itself, instead of being thrown, I switch back to painting the bench.
Night 3: I have some sort of problem with my brain (tumor?). I go in to the hospital for consultation with my mom. The hospital actually looks like a factory, seems really scary and unsanitary, but no one seems to think that is strange. The doctor says that she has to operate right away. She tells me that I need to give her something that has a lot of sentimental meaning for me, since they are working on my brain. I haven't brought anything with me. My friends and family are all there (though the only one who actually looks like my real friends and family is my mom), and before I go in for the surgery, I wake up.
I attribute much of these dreams to stress, fear of "jumping" into the future, the fact that the real ADPi initiation is coming up, the TV shows that I watch ("Angel" right before bed, and a HGTV show called "Debbie Travis's Painted House" every day right before Jeopardy). I still haven't figured out the significance of the injured palm though. The first dream involved a bee stinging my palm. Anyway, I've just made note of this since I so rarely remember my dreams, so this has been unusual.
