Figured I'd start a new thread ...
Jules and Spacey both dreaming their teeth fall out. Uisce dreaming he's naked. Stroh dreaming of Uisce naked.
Anyone have a prominent dream that they looked up on that site?
Anyone know what it means if you can't remember having a dream? I never remember mine (if I even have them).

When I was in college I worked at Kinko's and also waited tables part time at Applebees to make ends meet. It's been a decade, but to this day when I'm feeling really stressed out by my job or my home life I still dream of being "in the weeds" at Applebees or dealing with a horrendous hand-collating job at Kinko's. I've had too many of them to count.
Tried to look it up on the site, but couldn't seem to find a relevant combination of words. I take it at face value- I get stressed and my mind hearkens back to one of the most stressful times of my life. I promised myself that I would never go back, but about once a month, I do.

I had some crazy dreams last week. I went a few days without much sleep, and the sleep deprivation caught up to me hard with some freaky dreams by Friday. I tried to forget about them as soon as I woke up. I vaguely remember one of them was about high school. I'll try to remember tonight.

One that I have quite often is probably considered a variant of the "Test Dream". It usually goes like this:
I'm in college (university), and it's my final semester before graduation. Finals are approaching, and I suddenly realize that I had forgotten to attend several of the classes that I was registered for. I didn't just skip a few lectures. I didn't attend ANY of the lectures for these classes. To make matters worse, I can't even remember exactly what classes they were in order to do some last-minute cramming for the finals. Somehow, I do figure out what classes they were, and I make it to the exams just in time. Of course, I'm completely at a loss when I try to take it. I look at the exam questions, and I can't answer a single one. After the exams are over, I'm left to wonder how much damage I've done to my grade point average, and I become concerned about whether or not I have enough credits to graduate. The dream usually ends with my receiving the report card in the mail. I usually wake up before I ever find out what grades I received.

gleek - I used to have that dream a lot. Only I would wake up just before going to the test. It's been a while since it's happened but I remember the feeling after waking up when I realized it was only a dream.
Another one I used to get a lot is the "being chased by bad guy" variant. And once in a while I will have an odd dream with lots of unrelated people from my past in some situation/party/work environment.

Freshman year pre-civil war history this happened in real life to me. Got a D after not knowing where the class was.

Sometimes I remember my dreams very well and sometimes I don't. I have a few that I keep having variations of in one way or another. I have the dreams Fuzzy described all the time. Either a bad guy is chasing for me for some reason, or I'm at a random party usually my party. And all sorts of people are there from my past, present and people I don't know. I also dream about having **** quite a bit and it seems very real. I have 3 dreams in particular from when I was in college I still remember vividly to this day. One was of me flying around, knowing I was dreaming and essentially doing what I want. Sort of like Waking Life. I realized I was dreaming and thought why not fly so I did. Another one I realized I was dreaming when I stepped into this velvet playboy like room with all sorts of beautiful women. And I knew I could have my pick, so I walked around talking to them, checking them out to see which one I wanted. Well I took so long deciding by the time I choose one and we started for the other room to get busy I woke up. I was so pissed I woke up. The last dream I remember kind of freaks me out. I was driving on a long and lonesome road at night. It looked exactly like "lost highway" with my car and headlights right in the middle of the road. Off in the distance I see a single light pole near a gas station in the middle of nowhere. For some reason I stop at the gas station and get out of the car. As I'm walking into the door I notice a man standing under the light pole and he looks just like the creepy old man from "lost highway" (robert blake like). I get some cigarettes at the gas station and walk back out the door. The man is still standing by the road under the light staring at me. I get in my car and close the door. Just as I do I turn to look back at the guy and he is standing right next to my car with his head up against the window. Then his head does the exorcist thing and turns in circles which causes me to startle and wake up.

I often have something similar to this, only it's that I didn't remember to show up for the final or forgot to go turn in that term paper. (I often skipped classes ) Then I usually wake up in a panic, survey the situation for 1-2 seconds, and think "you already graduated, idiot!"

In a previous job I used to have to travel quite a bit and I used to have this re-occuring nightmare about falling asleep on a plane and waking up after having a wet dream....
