my dreams can be explained
For the past 4 days, I’ve been having some worrying dreams. Everything I have a slight fear about these days, has come up. My dreams usually make sense to me. I can, in retrospect, recognise the hidden meaning behind the random things that happen in my dreams. Like, I was on the phone talking to my best friend about the hottie standing next to me. However, I was in a bathtub taking my time not bathing or doing much else, I was just lying in it while said hottie was patiently waiting to use the bathtub and my plan was to use this as an excuse to initiate some sort of conversation. And before you go to the dirty place, I was clothed so stop picturing me naked and move on, you’re making me blush.
Now this is an easy one. Don’t freak out, it’s not about the bathtub. I have not a fear of bathtubs or anything like that. I’ve just been watching Kyle XY a little too much (those who have watched it will know what I mean). It simply means that I want to meet someone and that I am ready for another relationship. Which reminds me, why do my breakup mourning periods last almost a whole year every time?
The bathtubs or other unexpected situations and symbols tend to happen/appear not just because dreams have the tendency of being random like that. I like to think that in my case it also has to do with my surreal nature and sense of humour.
Other things that I saw in my dreams include my ex and some sort of a reunion with him (I won’t get into much detail about it) which lead to my brother not reacting to my sexuality. Someone robbing us and only taking the TV. And last but not least, my exam results and the grade I’ll get for my degree.
I should be finding out these results at some point this week, or at least I’m hoping to, so I’m expecting more dreams regarding this matter. I have also been thinking about what the criteria would be for someone to have a degree in Computer Science. Are there limitations? I mean, are scientists allowed to pick their nose?

Etienne said:“I have not a fear of bathtubs….!!?? Anyone that talks like that must be repressed. No wonder you had your clothes on.
“brother not reacting to my sexuality” Probably, because it’s true. He’d most likely say something like: “I could always tell you were gay….even from an airplane!!”
“someone robbing us and only taking the TV” Elementary, my dear Watson - You watch too much television!
“are scientists allowed?” We’ll, we have a quaint saying here in the US, which goes: “You can’t always choose your friends but, you can always pick your nose.” I’m sure we can modify it to pertain to your career choice if we try.
(agreed, Kyle is a hottie - in a geeky sort of way. Mebbe that’s why we like you.)

Christine said:Damn you for ruining the naked bathtub picture for me. Sigh. My dreams are so freakin’ boring I am ashamed of my subconscious. The most frequent is I am driving on a busy freeway and can not keep my eyes open. Gee, that one is real hard to figure out (life out of control maybe?)…see…bbboorrriiinnngggg.

Colin Brooks said:cybrpunk :: That dream was not about relevance. You were simply trying to entertain yourself. If that was a film, I’d watch it. Please tell me there was no… anal probing because I’d rather not see that, kthnx.
Etienne :: Haha! You made me laugh out loud. I’m not THAT gay. lol. Yes, Kyle is pretty, I love his facial expressions. Yeah, it sucks that Kyle XY won’t be back until 2009.
Christine :: Hehe. I don’t think your dream is about your life being out of control. I think it’s more about you being afraid you’re tiring yourself too much and that you’re afraid there’ll be a time when you’ll be too tired to do something important. Drink some red bull before you have sex next time, just to be sure.
Livingdead said:Oh, it could be worse. you could be having dreams about rabbits and roaches with huge human genetalia attacking your spaceship.

Musing said:It’s good you can find meaning in your dreams. I wish I could remember more of mine.
One thing I know, though. When I’m afraid of something I dream about water–an ocean, a lake, a stream. Which is weird, because when I’m awake I love to swim.

Where the hell are you anyway? Aren’t you supposed to entertain us or something? Slacker.

It only takes you a year to get over someone? I sort of believe like, I think it was Charlotte said it in Sex and the City, it takes half the amount of the total time you were with someone.

Colin Brooks said:cybrpunk :: Phew! I’m glad.
I don’t know what’s happened to me. Every time I go near the laptop nothing comes out. I think I OD’d on blogs or something… I seem to be avoiding them. I should fix that.
annie :: That’s way too much but in my case it’s too much already. We were only together for like 3 months.
Colin Brooks said:I seem to have missed a couple of you’s. I’m sorry:
Livingdead :: Yeah, those I get too but I don’t try to explain them. I simply pretend my mind didn’t just go there and keep drinking my coffee as if nothing weird happened.
Musing :: I wish I could remember more of them too. My mum says that dreaming about water means bad news are coming but I don’t believe in that stuff. Maybe your mind has associated water with some worry you had in the past. Who knows.
