Here is my BK question for the day (for all HHWers to answer)...what are some recurring dreams that you have or used to have.
Tornadoes -- a dream in which a tornado is about to hit my house (or the house I grew up in.) It usually starts with me being outside and seeing the funnel cloud form and touch down to the ground. I run inside when I realize it's heading in my direction. I always wake up before it hits my house.
I Don't Know My Lines!!! -- very much like MBarnum's dream, except I am at some kind of reunion at my college theatre. At first I think it's just a party, but I slowly come to realize that everyone else is getting ready for a recreation of one of our old productions of a Shakespeare play in front of a live paying audience. Everyone else seems to know what they are doing and are going about their business. And despite my protests that I barely recall what character I played, let alone my lines, someone just thrusts my costume at me and tells me to get ready. Before the curtain rises, I search around backstage desperately looking for a script in the belief that if I scan my first few lines that everything would come flowing back to me. But places are called, the curtain rises, and I walk onto the stage with no idea what is suppose to happen next and the dream ends. What's interesting about these dreams is that the stage scenery and lighting is always very beautiful--so much better than anything I've ever worked on.
House Invader -- someone is coming in through the unlocked front door. I rush to the door and lean against it with all my might and fumble for the lock, but whoever is on the other side is stronger and is slowly pushing his way in.
Secret Rooms -- either in the home i grew up in or in the house of someone I am a guest of, I find a slight gap in a wall that I can just barely squeeze through. On the other side is either a room or rooms that are hidden from the rest of the house and never used. Though dusty, the rooms are very neat and tidy and secluded. I'm filled with delight with my discovery.
Nuclear Nightmares -- I haven't had one of these in years, but I used to have dreams in which I am, again, outdoors and there is a sudden flash. I look up and off in the distance there is a rising mushroom cloud.
Sex Dreams -- boring! I always wake up before anyone gets naked.
