I’ve been neglecting

And, lately, less sleep than normal. Hello, finals!

This is from back in July. I’ve still been dreaming, just too lazy to write them down. Having company in mornings is also distracting. Anyhoo.

It was some sort of HL2 style event, I remember 2 specific scenes:

1. Walking around an underground area, there were some people sleeping. I was concerned for head crabs IIRC.

2. Fighting a super boss. It was on top of a building (you had to jump to a space between two buildings to get to it and start the fight). He looked like a really large bullsquid from HL2, except with a longer part to his tail which was prehensile. Also, he was invisible (when you first got to the space, he sort of flashed a few colors transparently, then disappeared). He would become visible after he attacked, but odds are I was fucked by that point. I thought ‘Hmm, maybe I’ll activate him, then jump back and shoot him from afar,’ but it must have been telepathic, because right then he jumps down onto my level and then to the level below, ready to strike. I realize I must need some sort of portal skills, but think its too difficult. I die, and it quickly flashes a few summary screens (this was the special boss, but i’d killed a few regulars of him, and stuff like that).

A Trio of Nightmares

Or as close as I get to them, anyways. I know I’m missing some of the details, but given the volume of information its not that surprising. These were some rather interesting dreams.

It started off with another RE-style event. I and a few others were chilling in an room with lots of boxes, one of which held a monster. A guy who looked an awful lot like Duke Nukem kept peeking into it, checking on it. Somehow, unbeknownst to us, it got out, until it was about 5 feet from Duke with his back turned. It looked vaguely like a fleex from CK6, but darker and with giant mouth parts at the ends of its arms. When Duke did turn, it was too late. The monster attacked and killed him. The rest of us pulled out guns, and shot at it.

We knocked out one of its eyes, but it screamed at us and grabbed another in the party, some chick. Looked like the one in RE (and the girl from Avatar who flies the ship). It started assimilating her, or something. You could see it merging with her face, and what looked like 2D images of demons (think Doom 3) crossing over into her. So, we shot her, and kept shooting. It didn’t have much effect, though. It kept screaming its vaguely humanoid scream, and I bolted. I hid in a room nextdoor, which had a rolly chair in it, and some windows into the hall. When the monster ran by (it was fast), I got out, rolling on my chair. My plan was to get on top of one of the boxes in the main room, which for some reason I deemed safe. The monster turned, saw me, then ignored me and turned down the hallway screaming.

At this point, I awoke, and texted myself “dream horrible monster” so I wouldn’t forget. Then, back to bed.

The second dream made the least sense of them all. I was crossing a giant bridge across a lake or something, with lots of Indian folks in front and behind me (though GS and I think KS were there). The bridge was like, a series of dunes almost, made entirely of croutons. I kept thinking “so *THIS* is where croutons come from!” during the adventure. Off the sides of the bridge, there were native Americans looking threatening, trying to take control of the bridge, I think. But, they didn’t, and we made it across.

We then stood near the base of the bridge, at the lake. There was a large tadpole swimming, and I made a comment about it. Internally, I also thought it strange for there to be saltwater tadpoles, so perhaps this bridge crossed ocean? Anyways, I poked at the tadpole for a little while, trying to catch it, but to no avail. The dream ended soon after.

The last dream was at some sort of camp, or at least a facility of some sort. There were two groups, one at the top of a tower in the center of the area (a jungle-type setting, with a good bit of fog), and those of us throughout the area. I was in the latter, with a large sniper rifle (which I believed to shoot paintballs). I spent a good bit of time sniping, waiting for cover in the fog, and moving. Eventually, though, I didn’t take out everyone, and someone came on land to see me. My gun jammed, and I couldn’t get away from him. Resignedly, I braced myself against the chain for punishment, which was either a whipping or a shooting at close range. He warned me that it might dislocate my jaw, but it did not. Then, I was complimented on my performance. We left the facility and were discussing things somewhere, and I realized that I had some rather nasty cuts (actually, I noticed them during the exercise, but there wasn’t much I could do). The people noted that I had already begun to heal, and would be fine.

After the exercise, I was with GS again, and some other folks, moving from a parking lot to the facility. The parking brake was on, but it only worked for the front tires, and I could lift my car and have it slide around. This was upsetting to me. At the same time, CiCi, the girl at the facility, was driving through the forest in an armored vehicle (van-style interior). Giant centipedes had gotten in and attacked her, and she was wounded. She managed to push them out and close the door, but it was too late. She ended up driving off the cliff the facility was stationed on.

The whole time this stuff was happening, there was a facebook virus going around, which made you send varying smilies to everyone. I got a notification that I had defended against it (Noscrip + ABP ftw!), and about 50 notifications from everyone posting at me. It also got phones, so my phone had about 250 pending texts (including one from dad of :j or :] as I recall). I think it was more important in the dream, but at this point the details are hazy.

Drug Free

And still retarded.

At the beginning, I was dreaming that I had taken a valium, and basically lost all motor control. As I didn’t want my teeth (or, lack thereof) toget fucked, I basically willed myself awake.

Second, there was some super fight thing between me and a demon fish half underwater, have above water, that probably stemmed from watching Resident Evil yesterday. Don’t really remember too much other than scrambling around to find items, though.

Third, I was with GS and SB, and we were running around UMW. We went into a secret entrance to one of the buildings. We were going to take a class, and there were 4 doors with the classes listed. The one I wanted was a wine tasting class, since I was 21 on that day, but SB apparently wasn’t, so we settled on something else. During our travels, we found a vending / game / not sure machine. where I won some apple based wine. I was quite happy, esp. since it was my birthday of the 21st. However, there was some sort of login required to prove I was 21, and so we went upstairs, chilling in what seemed a large Giant.

We were walking out, when I realized that I had forgotten my wines. The Giant was open 24/7, but the door seemed broken, so I kinda forced my way in, and got my wines. I met up with SB in the parking lot (which looks identical to the one where PC land is, n the other side though), and looked at my prize. Foiled! It was mostly graham crackers, with some apple vinegar (which had a minor alcohol content). Then, I awoke.

… Whoa

A bunch of weird, disjointed dreams, strung together by a common thread? UNPOSSIBLE.

It started off in ‘my room,’ which wasn’t really my room as I had a roommate who had a desk and bed and stuff. Some girl was over (was it the friend of HPP’s? I think so…). But, we couldn’t really do much since my roommate was over and coming in / out of the room.

So, then we ended up at her house, eating dinner with her family. At this point, it was definitely HPP’s friend, as I think she helped me get over. We talked a bit, ate (it was some sort of stir fried rice with veggies and meat), her father covered up the large open air opening at the top of the room with some sheets, and we retired after cleaning the dishes. She had made some reference to being frisky after dinner, which was appealing.

Lo and behold, I was teleported away. Not really sure why or how, but I was. I ended up trying to drive back that night to go and find her. At some point, I was driving with AC and IC (what in gods name was I doing dreaming of IC?), though they were in separate cars. I drove in and out of a nearby (to my location, anyway) shopping area, trying to find them to lead them on. For whatever reason, I found IC walking across the road looking for me, so I handed him all my change in my car, and drove off. … Wha?

Anyhoo, so somehow I got on a school bus, and made it back to that girls house. I was a bit nervous about going in, and fortunately there were some people on the outside I could talk to. Mostly, a bunch of WA. I talked with L for a while, (details), and then eventually went in to find girl.

I did, and explained that the random teleporting is a problem I have. She didn’t seem to fazed, and we kissed lightly. Then, when going back to the main room, a whole bunch of people were there. Which was concerning

In particular, RI (bear) and some guy that looked like him had stolen some jackets from a display case. I got quite angered at this, and demanded that they return them. They were unwilling, so I charged forward and flipped the guy that looked like bear over me, and threatened to beat him if he didn’t return them. I thought this was remarkably frightening and impressive, but apparently they did not, as they still didn’t want to return them. So, I started beating his face mercilessly, after which he agreed to give them back.

I tried to find girl again, to explain that raging violence was just another problem I had (that expression stemmed from my convo with L prior), but I couldn’t find her. It occured that random teleportation, raging violence, and the other issue were thing that may have scared her off. However, the dream shifted again, and it turned out girl was in some sort of demon world (well, somewhere else, anyway). She now looked drawn, in a kind of cool stylized way, but was scared of something. There seemed to be some fearsome, scary beast on its way, or perhaps a ghost. She started running, but I woke up so I can’t say what was going on.

Whoa.

So, apparently people can shoot fire out their ass.

Literally.

The major part of the dream was how some dude had discovered hover-flight, functionally by shooting fire out his ass and head at the same time. You’d think this would be obvious, but apparently not. I sat and watched him nail it, then listened to the commencement speeches. People like McNabb cited inspiration, Colbert was there, and there was some discussion of McCain being a good guy to Obama during the race, showing lots of respect or something.

Don’t wake me, I plan on sleeping in

Woo postal service.

Only two dreams stuck around.

The first was dropping off a friend at lambeth, or at least trying to. But, my car wasn’t where I normally park it, and I was moving it with a remote. For some reason. I ended up scraping the car a little bit, i think, which was really upsetting. Then, I woke up, realized that I hadn’t driven the friend home, and my car was safe. The first time I walked out of the apartment was still a bit disconcerting, though.

The second I remember less. Basically, it seemed to involve trying to convince people to leave / listen to pigs, or they’d get tazered.

Tazered, dude.

16 hours

Equals about 10 minutes that I remember. I know there was more, but it was nothing more than a vague recollection.

I was the relief goalie on some soccer team, but I had shitty defense. The score was 3-2, and I think we were winning. I had no defense, though. My two defenders were literally standing next to the goal line, being useless.

So, I got a hair aggressive in defense, but goals got scored anyways (one of them, a shot that would have just passed across the goal, went in because it bounced one of the defensive failures). The weird part, though, was that Hideki Matsui (last years designated hitter on the Yanks) was the one scoring goals…

Two super long, in depth dreams.

First, I was in some sort of mountain house, with a bunch of people I know, who were evil (like LP, JDG, and more). So, I was running around with a mild laser gun, shooting and being shot at.

For one moment, I became PF, and was sort of floating and doing some interesting things. Which was sweet.

Then, the dream came to some sort of end when we all had to leave, for watever reason. But, there was only one (or, maybe a second, I wasn’t looking hard) escape pod, which barely fit two people. I got in, though, so it was OK.

Somehow, there was some heroies III style stuff going on, but I can’t quire remember it.

The second dream consisted of me and the team running an APDA tournament that we hadn’t been informed we were hosting. So, it was a lot of us running around in some large, cabin-like room in cabel (DNE!), being super stressed. JF, BH, and JS were doing an OK job with it, but lots of stress. AR was there, as was SC, which was kind of nice.

Strange

I remember dreaming something Ill I tried to get up at 8, but its since faded.

After that, it was something weird - I was swimming in a large river with some friends, hiking or something similar. AS and QS were there, which was strange.

But, at some point, we settled, and I went off to harass some kid at his camp. He seemed like he lived in the mountains.

Then, after stealing something from him, I had a vision of two alligators swimming in a pond, and eventually trying to jump up and bite a branch.

Lastly, I came across a house, where CB was outside, and upon my arrival ran indoors. I went in, and shenanigans occurred.
