In dreams, I talk to you. http://forum.cakewalk.com/tm.aspx?m=2380107

Nice shameless plug.  Nice song too, Bub.  Bapu would be proud.

I dreamed I was in a Hollywood movie.

I love dreams, truly love them. Sometimes my brain really goes to town and conjures up an epic action movie for me with a plot that actually makes sense (sort of). I have various "sets" that recur in my dreams, one of them being a skyscraper or tall apartment building that's like a hi-rise city with all sorts of stuff going on. One time I dreamed I lived in a hi-rise, but instead of having an elevator, the entire building raised and lowered itself to let people out at street level. You were sitting there in your apartment going up and down all day. 

I can still remember dreams from when I was a small child. I bet everyone has a few childhood dreams that really stood out and they never forgot them. In one, I was trying to get up some stairs in a tenement building to visit my grandma, but the entire building started filling up with soapy water and eventually turned into a washing machine on a full spin cycle. In another, I was strapped to a floating gurney and was hovering down a dimly lit hallway in what looked like a space craft, toward a brightly lit room in which I knew there were aliens who were going to do unspeakable things to me, and I was screaming but nothing came out. I would have only been about 3 years old. I wonder if other people have had that same dream, and then woken up convinced they were abducted by aliens in the night. Dreams are so frikken cool.

I'm very fond of dreaming.  I'm especially fond of lucid dreaming.  I've read Stephen LeBerge's books (out of Stanford) and I've got a few of the toys and techniques (including two devices that can tell when you've entered REM sleep and can signal you so you can realize you're dreaming).

If you've never heard of or had a lucid dream than you'll have NO idea what I'm talking about.  They can seem more "real" than when you're awake (because your senses are not limited when you're asleep) and you have full control of your actions and scenario since you literally are awake in your dream.  The flying is unbelievable!

I trained myself to lucid dream many years ago. It involved writing a big "C" on my hand with marker pen. Every time I looked at my hand I thought "Hmm. A big C. That means I'm conscious." Pretty soon this habitual activity works it's way into your dreams, but this time there is no C on your hand. This prompts your brain to realize that you're actually asleep. That's all it takes - to realize that you're dreaming when you're dreaming. From there, you can pretty much do whatever you want. 


My trouble is that I always did something so intense - like shooting into the sky like a rocket whilst spinning at 500rpm - that the shock of it woke me up. 


The flying dreams I've had since childhood and I love them. It's always the same - I think to myself "hang on, all you have to do is jump into the sky and don't come down. Why didn't I think of that before"? And then I fly around for a bit, then I wake up and spend around 60 seconds marveling that I've finally cracked it, before sadly realizing it was all a dream. Someone once told me flying dreams are a sign of sexual frustration. Couldn't possibly be

Ha!  That person must have been sexually frustrated!  Flying is a sign of confidence.  Trying to fly and failing is the opposite.
