Me too. I like dreams. I want more of them

Every now and then I have "mini series" dreams where they continue over several days, picking up where they left off the night before. They seem freaky real and I always have total recall the next morning. The longest running one lasted over a week. I dreamt my wife and I went to South America to buy a large ranch, and while there a civil war broke out. The rest of the dream involved our fighting our way out. Wife was ready and waiting at breakfast for the next installment of the previous night's adventure during that one.

Cool!

Gary thinks that is very odd. Gary doesn't remember his dreams.

Really, you're missing out some great stuff. The mind in sleep can be very creative. One morning I woke up to a wife that was in seriously mad mode. I racked my brain trying to think what I might have done and kept coming up empty. Every question I asked, she respond to with those terse little one syllable answers (the kind reserved for only my worst infractions). Finally she told me that she had a dream in which I had done some mean things. When I said "but it was a dream I didn't do those things", her response was "but it was so real!".
 
I stole my borrowed my mom's kitchen aid mixer about 9 years ago, and I finally got around to borrowing the attachment kit that includes a meat grinder. I made some breakfast sausage, and about 10 minutes later, had a fantastic breakfast. I should have borrowed it years ago.

Next on the docket is chorizo I think. I paid 9 bucks for a 9 lb picnic shoulder that I think will make at least three batches. I should have borrowed it years ago.

Or returned it.... I like breakfast sausage.

Perhaps. She knows where it is if she wants it, haha. Has house keys and everything.

The reason it's at my house and not hers is because she didn't use it for at least a decade prior to my borrowing it. She likes doing things the old school way.

Power outage at the office, our outlets and A/C are not on generator and my UPS just died. The power company's estimate for restoration has jumped from 11:00 to 4:00. It's 79F inside and going up to the 90s today. I'm going to give it an hour of staring at a blank screen the call it a day; I'll take the hit on the paycheck.

Hey, I can see the family resemblance!

The mind in sleep can be very creative.
Totally agree! I like your mini-series dream, very detailed and totally cool. In a parallel universe, it could be your first novel or a screenplay.

I haven't had mine for a few years now, but I definitely had a recurring dream of being some kind of field nurse during the Civil War. Dunno which side, but there was always lots of action, mayhem, bandaging of wounds and, sometimes, great speeches. I was always wearing a damnably hot hoop skirt of the period, constantly pushing it out of the way while I worked. I had the dream frequently for many, many years. Strange stuff.

Stay long enough for the brass to let everyone know it's on their dime, if you can - you didn't do anything wrong. This has happened to me a couple of times, in different places, during my career in healthcare management - patients were uncomfortable enough to leave, as well. Once we'd get the word, I could have staff reschedule.

PITA, but better in the long run for actual productivity.
 
It's just a matter of Government making a decision. I'm hoping they will decide to let us telecommute but they are slow to react sometimes.

Wow, I'm a Civil War History nut, so I'd love to have one of these. I suspect that in my case there is something during the day that triggers the dream. However, I have noticed that since I started using a C Pap a few years ago, the dreams are not as long lasting, nor quite as vivid. Possibly because of a longer deep sleep stage??
 
Could be that, or you're still having them but the recall ability is obscured. I would venture we all have dreams, but we don't all share the same recall ability upon waking up.
