DREAM DIARY
If I remember the dream, it will live on here for everyone to remember.
This site started in June '01; after each month a new page will go up & previous ones will be linked here.

JULY 02, 2006:
 I just don't remember enough of this dream to add to my online Dream Diary, but I do remember it was very strange & bizarre, and had something to do with me inside a white sphere. The sphere was not empty inside; it was "furnished" with things like chairs, shelves, lamps (with incandescent light blubs burning in them - which is a bit odd because I run a website all about LEDs), carpeting, etc.



JULY 02, 2006:
 No, you aren't seeing things.
Yes, another entry from today.
I dreamt this while I was taking an afternoon delight (what my now-deceased housemate called a nap).
At least part of this dream had something to do with a Zippo brand "siggeret" lighter. I remember holding it and examining it rather closely (it was a somewhat shiny chrome, stainless steel, or aluminum with a brushed finish); but I do not remember actually *lighting* it.



JULY 07, 2006:
 I don't remember a lot of this dream; what I do remember I remembered more than 8 hours after waking up.

I was chasing and, for some reason, trying to catch a tiger swallowtail butterfly; as you see in the photograph at left.

The wingspan of the insect was ~6 inches, and the head, thorax, and abdomen were much larger in this dream than they are in real life. The body also had some white on it, which the insect really does not have.

The butterfly flew rather closely in front of me, then flew up a black asphalt street at an altitude of approximately 4' while I chased after it. I do not remember if I had a butterfly net or not; nor do I remember if I actually captured it or not.



JULY 09, 2006:
 I was in a dark bar, looking for change (quarters) to play the jukebox. Somebody else got some money in there first, and started playing some music.
My now-deceased best friend Paul's sister Tina said something about my sister was being a real douchebag to her on the telephone.

I also faintly heard a female voice that said: "Koji Minamoto? It is time."
I now recognise this as Ophanimon's voice from the TV program Digimon, season 4.



JULY 10, 2006:
 In this dream, I was once again working at the now-defunct 611 Tavern in Seattle.
In one part of this dream, I was going toward the back of the room to use the restroom. Near the short hallway where the bathrooms are (next to the drag queen dressing room on the right) was a large toliet with a white porcelain tank and a light blue, transparent glass bowl. The men's room was full, so I continued on to the woman's room. After sitting on the john for several minutes without being able to "go", I exited the bathroom and started making my way back out into the main room. The white & blue toliet now had a *very* broken bowl, and while I was touching & examining the broken part of the bowl, Dale Hilmer (another bartender there) turned the toliet so the broken part faced the wall to help ensure that other customers would be less likely to become cut on it.

Another part of this dream, also taking place inside the same bar, had to do with a rather vintage radio cassette player. It was different in that color television images were displayed on its speaker grilles! I turned it so I could look at the back. A variety of I/O jacks were visible, as well as the part number: JVC "RC-1000".
It had many individual speaker drivers plus a subwoofer. When I opened the cassette transport, there was a rust-colored material on many surfaces, but the take-up reel and pinch roller both appeared to function correctly, and the "rust" came off the erase and rec/playback heads with a Q-tip (don't ask where I got the swab - it just magically appeared I guess). I noted that the battery door was missing and that there were no batteries in it, yet it played music without the AC line cord. I would have seen the cord had it been there, but it was not.

Another part of this dream had me moving from behind the bar to the front of the bar on multiple occasions. Dale (mentioned earlier) was also shuttling back & forth much the same way I was. An older gentleman was drinking loganberry wine on the rocks, and when he ordered another, the full drink just magically appeared in front of him. Another ghetto blaster with color TV images coming from its speaker grilles was present.

Finally, I was back in the room on the customer side of the bar, once again examining that first JVC ghetto blaster. I noted that it played rather loudly. The person who owned it was in the process of reassembling it: two sets of satellite speakers on each side, and three components (tuner, amplifier, and subwoofer I believe) in the center.



JULY 10, 2006:
 No, you aren't seeing things.
Yes, another entry from today.
I stayed up for ~90 minutes, and went back to sleep for another ~90 minutes, and had this dream. I was driving around in a Hoveround brand electric wheelchair (I use a Celebrity X3 electric scooter in the waking world), and I was new at it so I was not able to control it precisely. I boarded a bus, and apologised to the driver for taking so long to get into my space, but the driver understood and was very nice about it.



JULY 12, 2006:
 This dream had to do with a "sleep analyser" of some kind; you stand in front of the machine and do something, and various heavy metal discs on an oblong metal table nearby rise above the surface in various configurations determined by what & how you did at the front of the device. A woman used the device, and several discs ranging in size from several inches to ~1 foot in diameter rose and fell on the table; the end result looked rather uncomfortable as I told the woman "you're supposed to sleep on that".

In an earlier dream, I remember there was an earthquake. It was vigorous, but very short-lived. Delicate glass insulators on a three-tiered metal shelf and ceramic flowerpots perched precariously on a wooden ledge were not broken. Nothing else was destroyed or damaged either.



JULY 13, 2006:
 In part of this dream (the part I remembered well enough to post in my Dream Diary here), I was on a bus (sitting near the front on the right hand side), and out the window I saw a most unusual looking aircraft flying. It was rectangular, had a rectangular and cubical superstructure made up of multiple large rectangles and cubes stacked onto one another, and on its underside, there were a number of cylindrical "engines" aimed open-end down that enabled it to remain airborne. I motioned for somebody else to look out their window at the unusual aircraft; then I woke up.
The aircraft was flying at an altitude of less than 1,000 feet at a speed of less than 50mph, and was travelling in an unknown direction but was moving from the front of the bus to the back (outside the bus of course) toward an "airport" that looked a lot like this aircraft's superstructure.



JULY 16, 2006:
 I was using a manual (push) wheelchair when I noticed the right-hand brake assembly was broken - the metal bar that contacts the wheel itself had broken off. My sister commented that it was because I "tipped the wheelchair on its side earlier in the day", but I told her that the brake assembly was still intact after the accident.
Later in the dream, I saw a somewhat soiled LED (Light Emitting Diode) on a bed, along with another, larger metal object who's identity I no longer remember.

Another dream had something to do with me having a pistol; a somewhat dirtied silver .45 if I remember correctly.



JULY 22, 2006:
 I don't remember most of this dream, but part of it had to do with me moving into my old apartment building (where I lived from early-1989 to late-1996), and wondering how I was going to cram all of my stuff into a little studio apartment. I also dreamt about the elevators in this same structure.



JULY 23, 2006:
 I dreamt that my stepsister and I had these artifical Christmas trees with lights on them that were designed to sway back & forth and play Christmas music. I could not get mine to work; it would simply fall over and the base would scoot across the floor on six small rubber wheels. Her base also contained a live fish; similar in size and color to a large goldfish but similar in appearance to a guppy. My base had a light purple plastic fish in it if I remember correctly.

My dad said I might get zapped on the transformer for the Christmas tree lights & motor, but I read the ratings on it - 36 volts AC, and you need at least 45 volts to feel even a slight tingle with wet hands.



JULY 24, 2006:
 Whenever I have a dream with wall-mounted porcelain urinators and/or toliet bowls in it, I usually have to take a wee when I wake up, and this morning's dream was no exception.
I dreamt that I entered a men's room, and all of the urinators were in full view to a nearby atrium full of people, and all of the toliets were either in view of same or were very dirty. I looked them all over and chose one that was in a stall and looked the least dirty of them all. I had some trouble getting the lid & seat to function properly, but soon "got it". When I sat down, it felt like there was a corrugated plastic plate between my penis & testicles and the toliet bowl itself. I sat there for a moment, unable to go, then I woke up and used the real thing.



JULY 27, 2006:
 I had forgotten this dream by the time I was able to "finish my smoke, down my drink" (from the Anthrax song "Born Again Idiot"), but I do remember that it was somewhat bizarre.



JULY 30, 2006:
 Part of this dream had to do with my new Celebrity X3 motorised three-wheel scooter and the rocker switch normally used for operating the onboard lighting. If this switch was pressed rearward, the scooter's drive wheels would spin backward, and if this switch was pressed frontward, the wheels would spin forward. In the waking world, this switch has nothing whatsoever to do with the drive section.
