Isn't he the greatest thing ever?!?!?!

WARNING: EXTREMELY DISTURBING AND REALISTIC DREAMS MAY FOLLOW:

I never watched Sesame Street when I was a kid. However, since we recently got DSL I've been spending WAY to much time on YouTube, to the point that last night I dreamed that I was on a bus full of Count muppets, but only one of them was the real one and I had to find him.

It was a lot creepier than you can imagine. I'm sitting on a bus in the late evening. There is a light rain coming through the windows and the sky is still tinged with sunlight. I have a bird's nest on my lap and the eggs are near to hatching. The bus driver is a pockmarked middle aged woman with dirty hair who never looks up from the road, and the only other passangers are half a dozen identical Muppets with purple skin and felt fangs.
The bus pulls over. I start walking up and down the isle, and notice that two of the three eggs have hatched. 'Aw ********,' I say. I turn to the bus driver; 'Ma'am, drive me to the nearest avery." She obeys without comment, and I turn back to 'The Counts'. "Which one of you is the original," I demand. "Tell me, or I'll BITE YOU!" I snarl, flashing my fangs. None of them answer, so I hold out the baby birds. "I'm going to eat these birds."
"NO!" screams one of the Counts, standing up. "You must let me count them first!"
That settles it - only the real Count would want to count my hatchling birdies. I wasn't really going to kill them, of course. But I end up convincing The Count to accompany me to the avery (bird store thingamabob).
I don't know why I was looking for him in the first place; I vaguely remember wanting him to turn me into a vampire, but seeing how I was already a Creature of the Night that doesn't make much sense. I could also have been planning to suck his blood, but that's silly, considering he was a muppet and muppets don't have blood. O_o So I don't know what that was about.
Anyway, the manager of the birdstore/avery hires me as a birdkeeper. I am about to put my chicks into a cage, but end up finding a few dozen more birds to join them. O_o The manager, who is even weirder than me, fills a cage with mulch and bids me throw my birds inside and dig a deep hole in the center of the exibit. I do as she tells me, but as I climb inside to dig the hole, she locks the door on me and ran off! I try going to the edge of the cage, but my movement causes the mulch to fall into the hole and bury all my birds! I desperately start trying to dig them out, but there isn't enough room to place them in safety, and my weight iss crushing them.
If that's not bad enough, the manager shows up again, but now she's got a silver stake and is trying to stab me through the wire mesh. I twist about, managing to dodge each stab, but then she pulls out a wad of garlic and waves it at me. I start sneezing like crazy; my eyes are watering; my throat closes up. Then she rubs it across my leg, and a huge itchy red rash spreads across my skin. She gets the stake out again, but I'm too sick to move. My god, I HATE being killed in dreams. It feels so weird. Anyway, she gets the stake stuck between my ribs but doesn't touch my heart, luckily enough, though I'm bleeding all over my poor little dying birds.

Somehow I escape to New York City - which is, by the way, the new capital for vampire posers. The Count is there, so I break into his garden and take a hit of LSD and spend the rest of the dream in black and white (normally I dream in vivid color), floating weightlessly over toneless gray flowers and gray grass under a gray sky.


.....
Yeah.
I honestly LOVE my dreams, though this one was especially lucid and disturbing. And no, it was not an unusual length for my dreams. xP

I've had several weird dreams. Here one:

In a dream within a dream, Mom and I were kidnapped by pirates, and they locked me up in a room and all I could do was lay on a bed. Don't know what happened to Mom. The years passed as I lay on the bed, and I was getting older. I was middle-aged when a general store suddenly appeared in the room with me. I went in to look for a card game I'd gotten and lost in real life, but I couldn't find it, and I didn't even end up getting the orange juice I'd considered buying. I went back into bed (and the general store was gone just as suddenly as it was there), and I grew very old and tired. Then, I knew that I'd die as soon as I fell asleep, so I closed my eyes and died. What was next was reminiscent of "Tomorrow Never Knows". Then, I woke to the main part of the dream to find myself alone on a balcony, so I sang John Lennon's "Mother" until Mom came over. Then, I was at my birthday party in this very neat garden-type place, and a bunch of friends and I were starting a treasure hunt when Dad came, and we talked for a while. Then I awoke.

That's weird in a flowing, confusing, surreal, dream-like sort of way. I rarely have any dreams like that...they're usually perfectly clear and detailed, but absurd and fantastical nonetheless. razz I HAVE SO MUCH FUN SLEEPING!

Haha! Well, he's been caught in bed with other men before, but he IS Mick Jagger. xP

Mick Jagger related dreams are the weirest. A few weeks ago I had a dream that my friend, my cat, and myself were kidnapped by The Rolling Stones, who had run off and become pirates. They all looked like my science teacher, who's bald as an egg with a very round head. Mick Jagger's head was inflated and the size and shape of a beachball.

Anyhoo, they wanted us to watch My Name is Earl with them because they were scared of Joy. (HA!) When the episode was over, Mick (very drunk) climbed up on the table and screamed: "GUESS HOW MANY BANDANAS I'M WEARING?!?!?!"
We sat and watched in amazement as he ripped off layer upon layer of variously colored bandanas and threw them aside. Finally, he peeled off a small red one to reveal -
- What the hell?
A SEXY RED LACE YAMACA! rofl

...Then he got seasick. :-/

Ok, my dream the other night was about characters from The Fairly Odd Parents, The Beatles, and VERY bad guitar chords. <.<;

-+-+-

Ok, so...

I was in my dream, and look, it's Timmy Turner. And Vicky, in a wedding gown. And they're getting married. And for some reason, instead of a real background, the only thing you could see behind them was this huge book. Lots of words and no pictures.

Anyway, so they're getting married, and I start hearing "Dear Prudence." And I start to think, "Oh, it's just 'Dear Prudence,' the Beatles song," in my dream. It was awesome, like background music. Anyway, then Timmy and Vicky where married. And they started dancing.

And then the song changed. Now it was "Glass Onion." Then I'm thinking, "Oh, it's 'Glass Onion.'" So I'm hearing it, then like - seriosly, like John is telling me in my ear, "Wrong chord. Wrong chord! Get up you stupid kid! He's playing the WRONG CHORD! Get up and fix my damn song!"

So I wake up, sweaty. I see my dad, sitting in the chair, holding my guitar, strumming it randomly.

Yeah, Mother Superior, that was a weird dream.

A weird dream I had a week ago was actually Doctor Who-related. I was in my house, and the Master (played by Anthony Ainley) was playing cat and mouse with me by catching me and letting me go, threatening to kill me. Well, he finally caught me next to the pantry in the mud room (a small area connecting the garage, kitchen, and my grandparents' bedroom), and I knew he would kill me next time when he said it (though that wasn't scary or anything in the dream). Then he walked through the garage (to the outdoors - it was night in the dream). Then, I went into the garage. Suddenly the door was mostly closed, and I saw the actor Roger Delgado (who had previously played the Master) standing in pretty casual clothing (including a hooded jacket) in the middle of the garage. I smiled wide and was like, "Roger? Roger Delgado?" As I walked to him and hugged him, I said, "You don't know how happy I am to see you!" Then, we exchanged some nice words (can't remember what now) before I said, "But you died in a..." Then, I spent some time trying to think of how he'd died. By the time I remembered it was in a car accident, I was half-awake-half-asleep-still-dreaming. Then, I finished that. After a few more words, the Master (played by Anthony Ainley) came back with a syringe full of air, stuck it through my back and into my heart, let me say a few last words (in the form of a poem I wrote), and then injected it. Ow.

Yesterday, I was exhausted during Study Hall and fell asleep with my head on my arm. I had a very detailed dream about....my arm. -_- WHOO, MY ARM!

Although, it was slightly more interesting than that; it was disembodied and lying on my desk in front of me. I just stared at it until I woke up.

Ok, another dream..... One time at band camp... o.O


-+-+-
I'm underwater... In an Octopus's Garden, in the shade... I'm not kidding. Me and The Beatles were... I don't know. We had to drive over to a place, I think we had to find a Yellow Submarine. (yeah...) Anyway, I think we were all really high at the time. And that conversation was playing off someplace... "I know what it's like to be dead." "Who put all that s**t in your head?"
And I started crying, because all of a sudden - Paul seemed to be set ablaze. Then John started bleeding, bleeding, and he shouted - "I know I've been shot." And he was gone. Then George started coughing, it was like he couldn't stop. Then he disappeared too, just like John and Paul. Then Ringo said to me: "Don't worry, you can stop all of this." And he was gone.

Anyway, then it skipped. I was in the street. Paul's car was speeding towards me. I knew what to do. I ran directly in front of it. Somehow, it slowed and stopped. I knew he was alive.

Then I was standing before -

wait.

O_o Well, that part about them all dying is kinda funny - no, not in that way! - as in, John gets shot, George dies of cancer....HMM. I wonder what that means for Paul and Ringo?
Maybe Paul's going to spontaneously combust? And Ringo's going to...spontaneously evaporate? Sweet...it might really be worth dying, if you got to do it in such a weird way.

eek eek eek eek

I think it was about the Paul Is Dead thing, the car crash...

Anyway, I didn't get to finish typing it last time.

I stood on a sidewalk. John and Yoko were arriving home, and the shout - "Mr. Lennon!" was heard. I catapulted myself into John and we were alive. "Get inside!" I told him, and he and Yoko were gone. I think they called the cops, or something...

Then I was even further back. Backstage, it seemed. During.... an early Beatles consert. >_< George and Paul were smoking, they were having a little break or something, between songs. I walked up to them and pulled their ciggarettes from their hands. "Stop it!" I yelled at them, and pointed at George. "You're going to die from cancer if you don't!" He seemed scared. I ran off.

"I've done it," I yelled. I was standing in a beautiful field of flowers and fruits (strawberries! >_< ). "I've fixed it, I've saved them!"
Ringo appeared. "You did well," he said, nodding.
"Where am I?" I ask.
Ringo smiled that Ringo-smile. "Strawberry Fields."
"Forever?" I asked.
"Yeah. There's more for you to do, you know. Many other wrongs to be righted."
"And?"
"Come with me. I can't fix it myself, I'm too well known."
"Yes, I'll do it, I'll save the world of music!"
All You Need Is Love starts playing off somewhere in the distance. After it's done, John, Paul and George appear, and start singing With A Little Help From My Friends, with Ringo going in and singing lead again, and then, in an improv. drum solo, Ringo shouts : "You're my friend, too now!" and I sing in it. >_<

And I wake up.

I love this dream.
