I was helping a toddler who had gotten lost on the side of a rocky hill/cliff. I carried her down to a rocky ledge, and her Mom was waiting on the edge of a cliff on the other side. Their was an optical illusion (like in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade) that made it look like the two ledges were connected.

I put the lettle girl down and told her to wait for me while I looked for a way to get down. I started probing the around the edge of the rocks, and was off balance. The little girl saw her Mom, and decided to run across the "bridge".

I looked up in time to see the Mom catch the collar of the little girl as she was falling into the gorge. The little girl was crying, and the Mom was screaming for help. I started to get up, but the little girl slipped from her Mom's hand and fell 25 feet or so onto the jagged rocks below.

The Mom looked at me, and the look of horror, shock, and confusion on her face was heart breaking.

I woke up pretty fast after that.

Night before last night was just weird.

I slept extremely fitfully and woke up several times. The dreams I remember were extremely odd. The first was a speech by Jesse Jackson on the radio or something, I was driving some where, he was talking about the denial of liberty making people shadows of themselves, and how we should honor our great shadows (implication the original civil rights movement, Dr. King, etc) and continue to strive for liberty, as he started into a pro-gun portion of the speech (dreams are weird places) I pulled into a drive way then rolled back out backwards under no power I heard a bump from hitting a parked car, tried to turn and then the car started to spin, I woke up with my personal sense of orientation completely gone and paralyzed. I saw a figure of some kind... remember how they showed the predator in those movies? Kinda like that, a stealth system or invisibility cloak. I tried to resist and failed. Abruptly the pressure released leaving my paranoid and terrified in my bedroom.

The second dream I don't remember much of except that it was pleasant. However it ended up with me waking up paralyzed with the return of our mysterious cloaked individual, I struggled again I managed to fight back... it was like moving through honey, and grab the individual, attacking the head and neck, but mostly just going for a strong grab as that was the most motion I could do. Then I woke up again.

I don't remember the third dream, but paralysis didn't return

Sounds like Art Bell's famous Shadow People to me KM!

Also, I dreamed about a Ghostbuster themed restaruant. I don;t recall the details, but I remember being hesitant when my wife ordered the Slimer Surprise.

I had a really wierd autur like movie dream last night that involved a ton of surreal images, a sketchy plot, sexuality (but not sex), bloody violence, strange WTF moments (like a middle age guy with a clostomy bag and diaper, dancing around with a teen emo girl), and a murder plot that was a mix of Twin Peaks and the Thing.

I wish I could remember it more clearly and describe it because it really was David Lynchian and awesome!

I haven't had any interesting dreams in a long time. However, I had a memorable one last night.

In the dream, Abraham Lincoln came into my general store (which I don't own in real life) and started talking to me in a down home and folksy way.

It was a nice conversation, but I don't recall any of it.

I dreamed Louis CK was sitting on my mom's face.

Kinky.


I dreamed that I was chained to another man and then thrown off a boat. We both started to sink, but I knew we could stay afloat if we swam together. That's when he looked me in the eyes and inhaled water, then drowned and sank, pulling me down.

Well both were fully clothed so I have no idea if it was still sexual or not.
