the dream thread or: how crazy is your subconscious?

[pryor15]

So here's an idea I've had for a bit that I think will make a good on-going thread: post your dream (or what you remember about it) and everyone else will explain to you why it means you want to sleep with your mother.

but seriously: post a dream. other people help you figure out the meaning. you get to realize that you aren't as [censored] up as you thought. around here we call that a win-win situation.


i'll start.


From about the ages of 22-24, I had this recurring dream maybe 20 times. It's a sunny, slightly brisk day and some people (maybe 30ish) are all standing around my grave as they're about to lower the casket into the ground. They're all pretty sad, my parents are crying, etc. I can't really hear what people are saying, other than it's "such a waste" (but i figure that could be said about anyone dying young). The only concrete, consistent thing about the dream is that I'm always 27. (so, yeah, I was a little nervous in the days leading up to my 28th birthday)

that's it. the dream was always really short, but i just kept having it so often that it started to freak me out, like my brain knew something it shouldn't.
