Post your dreams

[Angrboda]

I've had two really weird dreams. The first one, I was in an open air amphitheater, about 15' or so back from the edge of the stage. Right in front of the stage was a cradle with a baby in it — my baby. Right behind my baby, between me and her, there were two very tall and ugly monsters, and they were examining my baby and interacting with her. I knew that they were planning to raise her as surrogate parents and manipulate her into accomplishing some dark purpose. I think they were some kind of alien race and I was a member of the slave race, because I was afraid of them, and they had authority. But I kept leaning this way and that to try to see around them to see what they were doing to my baby. After a short while, I woke up. I could clearly see that the "monsters" that I had been trying to see around were physical, tangible objects in my room. I'm guessing I was somewhere between sleep and wakefulness, with my eyes partly open, and I was incorporating what I was seeing into my dream.

The other dream was when I was on a very high dose of Prozac. I hadn't slept for days, but because of the Prozac, I couldn't fall asleep. I went to walk up the stairs to the second floor, and I stopped and sat down on one of the landings. The words and ideas that I was thinking at the time suddenly morphed into strange shapes composed of loops of neon colored light, moving in a dark, empty space, and the loops had symbolic meaning, similar to what I had been thinking before the shift occurred. I'm interpreting that as going from a waking state directly into a dream state without any intervening sleep stages, but I don't really know what happened; that's just what it seemed like to me.
