I had a crazy dream last night and I wish I could remember what it was... it was something very out of character for me. Not something I usually do...

a few dreams from Oct 27-Nov 1

I dreamed that Perry brought Liz over to my birthday party and she was trying to act normal, but also provoking me, like "What, why can't I be here? What, I'm nice now. What are you going to do?" It was strange. Liz is a friend that I had a falling out with in March of this year, and although I don't miss her, I am struggling with coming to terms with the situation and need some resolution. She has been in my dreams lately (I think this is third dream in the past few weeks) and it seems I am trying to confront the situation.

I dreamed that Andrew Foley deleted me as a friend on facebook and I was so surprised! Liz's brother deleted me, so I think this might be in relation to that fact, and I was just mixing up people. It was one of those things that doesn't really matter, it's not like the person is your bff, but it's kind of bothersome, like "What's wrong with me?"

I have recently elongated my throws in frisbee. I dreamed that I was showing my captain, friend, and roommate my throws, and all I could do what taco the disc. Then this ended up happening in practice the following day. Not on the same scale, but it was still irksome.

Oct 27

I read Cornelius Eady's You Don't Miss Your Water: Poems. The poems are all about his relationship with his father and his feelings and thoughts surrounding his father's death. One poem in particular, the title poem, stood out to me. Particularly the line about his sister dreaming about having a chat with her dead father. I related this to Perry, although Perry's father was not a jerk like Eady's father. I dreamed that night that my professor made me read this particular poem aloud in class and I started crying afterward.

The following day in class, she did in fact ask me to read the poem aloud. She said I read it very sadly. I told her on Thursday about my identification with the poem.

Let's Begin

The past couple of weeks I have been a dream craze, having a few dreams a night. I dream in realistic blurbs. Sometimes they correctly foreshadow future events (usually on a small scale). Someone told me that the content of our dreams sometimes alludes to what we are ready to confront in our lives. For this reason, I am beginning my dream archive. It is my hope that this can become a place for others to share their dreams and possibly gain insight by doing so. I think that just by journaling my own dreaming experiences, I will come to helpful realizations.
