Every night I have the most vivid dreams, and I always have for as long as I can remember. My dreams are always super complex and usually exciting and weird. Most mornings I can remember at least 2 of the dreams that I had the night before and in pretty good detail. My husband thinks my dreams are crazy and can't believe that I remember so much of them. Does anyone else experience this or am I the only one?
For instance, last night I had a dream that I was flying around in a hot air balloon with one of my ex co-workers. She and I were navigating this balloon through all sorts of obstacles. We would have to stop at different "stations" in the sky which were made entirely out of ice, to get a ticket. We had to collect thest tickets until the end of the course to prove that we completed everything. When we got to each station we would park our balloon and slide down a chute made of bubble wrap to a warm sunny place where we would complete an obstacle like burning a rope until we could go on to the next station.
This was preceeded by a dream in which it was Saturday morning and we were getting ready to help our friends move into their new place (which is actually what we are doing today), but on the way there we ran into my mom who convinced us to go to Great America. We agreed because we wanted to see what Great America was like in the winter. We went on a few rides when we ran into my grandparents who asked us to take them to a Best Western hotel. When we got there, it was a really really nice hotel and for being the 500th person through the door I won a free nights stay in this spectacular room. We decided to take them up on it right then and when they lead us to this giant room, we walked in and my dog rusty was there. At the end of that dream I remember swimming in a giant bath tub with my husband and my dog, answering a cell phone call from one of my husbands friends and laughing about a joke he told me.
One last dream I remember from last night was that I was getting ready to go somewhere fancy but my hair was wet and I didn't think I could dry it fast enough. My sister gave me this magic-like hair gel that I scrunched in my hair. Not only did my hair dry instantly but it became about a foot longer and very wavy. When I woke up I was kind of sad that it was just a dream and that no such real product existed.
Every night I have some new adventure in my dreams. Sometimes I run into people I haven't seen since I was 5. I usually remember my dreams in reverse order too. When I wake up I remember the thing I was just dreaming, but that triggers me to remember what it was I was dreaming about before that, etc. Sometimes I wish I could turn all of my dreams into a movie or something because they really are very entertaining and just so outlandish - definitely works of fiction. I was writing them down for a while, maybe I will go back to doing that again sometime.
