Yeah, it's true that it ...Hey Freckle Face Girl!!!<br /><br />Yeah, it's true that it probably is a standard dream type. I know that it's actually a type of dream that I have a lot, and not usually about this particular house: being trapped in or exploring a huge, elaborate maze-like building.<br /><br />I had one recently where I was attending a conference at the top of an extremely tall building, but one that was so old that the elevator was too slow and inefficient to do more than a couple of runs per day (the buliding was built for a "World's Fair" from long ago or something like that). And so the conference participants just stayed up in the upper floors (something like a conference center, including a little convenience store) for the whole week...C. L.

It doesn’t really remind me of any houses we lived in though, but it is huge and has lots of secret/strange passages. It is always dark & everything is brown in the dream. I guess it is like a maze dream where I get lost and can't find my way out. <br /><br />I wonder what dream interpreters would say about that.Freckle Face Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13324960438835000817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19053670.post-38101788160018180072009-04-21T07:31:00.000-07:002009-04-21T07:31:00.000-07:00Thanks for sharing - dreams can be odd, can't they...Thanks for sharing - dreams can be odd, can't they?

I love vivid dreams like that too! ...Hey Holly!!!<br /><br />I love vivid dreams like that too! That's cool that your mom's a alien. ;^)<br /><br />In this case, I think the house really was just a symbol of itself, and of the constant stress I felt about wanting to fix it up but not having the abilities or resources to do so.<br /><br />But for dreams in general, I feel like my problem is not having the time to get up slowly and remember my dreams. So often I wake up with the idea that I was having a cool dream, but I have to get ready for work, so I can't take the time to try to remember what it was.<br /><br />For about a year and a half (before Nico was born and when he was a tiny baby) I kept a dream diary. At that time I worked from home, hence never had to jump up and get ready for work. I hope that one day I can do it again.<br /><br />Here's the last entry, dated July 24, 2002:<br /><br />Lisa Simpson's head (which had been shaved so that it looked stubbly) went to visit heaven and saw a number of people there, including my husband's thesis advisor [ed note: he's not dead].<br /><br />Then her head went to hell to visit a Native American baseball team that was there. But the team started harassing her and throwing things at her as she floated above them, and she narrowly escaped through the sky-light. Later some kids found her head in a snow-bank, only it was the head of a duck.<br /><br />Then Marge and Homer went to hell, and as they went through the cellar-door to hell they noticed that there was no handle on the inside of the door, so Marge got worried and broke the door so they could escape. She was worried it might be dangerous to go into hell after what happened to Lisa. But Homer insisted that they went to hell every Friday night to play cards with the Hibberts', and they'd better hurry before the bar closes. So they went.<br /><br />Marge won as usual -- this time by being the first to cry "attic" and then showing her hand. She had an exceptional hand containing the kings and queens of a particular category of countries.C. L.

I love dreams and have had times in ...fascinating. I love dreams and have had times in my life when my dreams were really vivid and full. A favorite was one where I figured out that my mom was an alien, and when I asked her what part of the universe she was from, she pulled out a holographic map of the universe and it exploded into dancing blue elephants.<br /><br />I have pursued various sorts of dream interpretation, with more or less interesting results. Just so you know--and I am not suggesting that this is applicable, because I believe that sometimes a house is just a house--there is a school of dream thought in which a house is always a metaphor for the dreamer's self.<br /><br />Right now my dreams are not very memorable, which disappoints me. I like it when interesting things happen to me even when I'm asleep.Hollyhttp://www.selfportraitas.comnoreply@blogger.com
