Reply #40: I do, sometimes. [View All]

Occasionally I'll have generic dreams where I'm walking around a public place naked - usually I start out feeling confident about it, and then halfway through I start freaking out and trying to find a way to sneak back unnoticed and get some clothes on. :blush: I also sometimes have dreams where I really have to pee and can't find a toilet, but usually those are right before I wake up in the morning (needing to pee, of course).

The main recurring dream I have, though, is pretty weird (and specific to me, I think). It involves the space shuttle Challenger (which exploded the day I was born, so I've literally been hearing about it all my life and I think it's infiltrated my subconscious, lol). Sometimes I'm in the shuttle with the doomed astronauts, sometimes I'm at mission control, and sometimes I'm just watching from the ground...but I always know what is going to happen. :( Oddly enough, in my dreams I'm never afraid - not even when I'm inside the shuttle. But the weirdest thing about this dream is that it seems to be a predictor of bad things happening the next day. Most of the time it's nothing hugely significant - just one of those days when everything goes wrong, and it usually isn't until late in the day that I even remember the dream. The last time I had it, though, it was extremely vivid. I woke up still remembering the details very clearly, and it felt like I was just waiting for the other shoe to drop - I just knew something big was going to happen. Sure enough, less than an hour later, I checked my e-mail and there was a letter from the president of my college, announcing his resignation. :( (I know that probably doesn't sound like a big deal, but it really was for me and a lot of other students.) So, yeah...that's my recurring dream, and I guess sort of what it means, too. :hi:
