I dreamed last night that I was at my parents' house (except, of course, it wasn't) and that there was a dog tied up there. He was small and looked quite miserable. I was trying to work out how long he had been there since my parents were on holiday.
I woke up shortly afterwards convinced that I was at their real house. Someone in the flat below was talking and I thought it was my dad.
Waking up to heavy rain takes me right back to living there. Not sure why here more than in Durham. It may be down to the way it sounds in the flat. Or perhaps because when I was living in Durham I very rarely had to get up too early!

I'm on here at 4am because I woke not long ago from a real nightmare - I was being set upon by three people who were going to eat me  I'm pretty sure that was the result of that old cliché about not eating too much cheese before you go to bed. I had a big lump in the fridge which I noticed the other day had suddenly gone very green, so I cut all the mouldy outside off and have been trying to finish it up before the rest turns green. I had lots of it with oatcakes before turning in, won't do that again, not that I eat a lot of cheese normally anyway. |

I've looked your nightmare up in my dream book Andy. It says regarding cannibalism fears, the following various suggstions :- 1. Do you feel as though you are being eaten up by a situation? 2. This can also refer to someone trying to take your life force energy, or creative ideas or money. Is someone living off you or do you feel as though someone is living off you? 3. Cannibalism can also symbolize extreme possessiveness in a relationship.  |

Could it be a fear of being eaten?  Holy moly(sp?), there must have been something that made it a night for nightmares. I had neither cheese nor the Berlin Philharmonic last night but had a spectacularly horrific and lengthy nightmare. I'll spare you the details but it involved ... no. I really would quite like to change my brain for a healthier one.  |

Last night I dreamt there was a heavy down-pour and that I told my dog, who hates rain and was hiding in the corner, "Don't worry Gruph if it's raining this hard at half-past-eight you can have the day off school." What that reveals about my relationship with my pet does not, I think, need looking up in Milly's book!

Pixie would like to have refuted your post personally martle but she's a bit busy at the moment.  |

I think that last night's dream consisted of rather a lot of photocopying.
That does sound nasty Milly.

Ooh poor you - I hate dreaming stuff like that. I quite often dream my cat has been somehow mutilated and wake up feeling rather disturbed. As it happens, my other half's shoulder is black and blue - he's managed to break his collar bone. I've spent the weekend racing around and come back to work for a bit of a rest! I had a lovely dream on Saturday night that I was drawing a rose with a beautiful dip pen, and now I'm determined to do some painting this week. I'm interpreting it as my subconscious telling me to put down the gloss and pick up the acrylic. |

Very fortunately I don't remember dreaming anything at all last night. I was watching him like a hawk yesterday at football practice, in case he sustained a shoulder injury, but all went well and he scored 9 goals all by himself!!!!! Perhaps it was a good omen after all. |

I was late for work this morning, partly due to having one of those dreams that's almost impossible to wake up from due to the sounds of my surroundings becoming indistinguishable from the sounds of the dream. I was still at yesterday's wonderful Prom, St-François d'Assise. My head was full of percussion and ondes martenots, and when the tinkly alarm on my mobile phone started going off to wake me up, I thought it was just Messiaenic robins or wrens or something  |

That reminds me of a dream recounted by Freud about being in a burning house and at first not waking up, then finally waking up - I think Slavoj Zizek re-interprets it to formulate a different psychoanalytic explanation of why dreams function first of all to keep us asleep (away from the Real or symbolic?), and then to push us towards it when their deferring mechanisms finally become unbearable. I can never remember this properly though, and always seem to get it back to front. Anyone else know what I'm talking about??? |
