Stupid doctors

Well, I had a dream last night (and again..only remember a small part of it).

All I can remember is I went back to the doctor, because I started feeling worse. My neck was still swollen, and the white spot on my tonsil made me go back (its how i really am right now). I went back to the same doctor I visited last week, and again, she told me something that it wasn't.

She said she didnt' know what I had, but was going to prescribe me some medication for something basic..just for like a normal sore throat, or an anti-inflammatory. I just told her "can't you tell what I have? I know what I have, why are you even a doctor?"

I was pissed, because I pretty sure I've got tonsillitis, and this doctor doesn't know what shes doing, and I have to pay for this crap, and she won't diagnose my correctly.


--So I guess half of that is what is actually happening to me. Every day I think about going back to the doctor, because I do see a white spot on my tonsils. I do have symptoms of tonsillitis, and i think its viral. But I already went once, and the doctor told me allergies, I don't want to go again and have to pay a ton for a mis-diagnosis.

Weird...roomate dreams?

Still not remembering much..but I think i had two separate dreams last night..both about roommates.

My first dream.. I came back to my house, and Jake had moved his bed into my room, he wanted to share a room! He said he was going to rent out his room to someone and we could save money. I just remember thinking "WHAT THE HELL!?" I dont want to share a room with anyone.

My other dream had a friend who I haven't seen since I was about 12 years old. For some reason he either lived with me, or an apartment next to me. He had decided he wanted to rent his room out to a bunch of midgets. He said they wouldn't take up much space, and that he could save a ton on rent if he got like 4 midget roommates all sharing his room. He even took out an add in a magazine advertising he wanted multiple midget roommates. He also had a girfriend, who I think he beat up (and she beat him up too). I remember wanting to check to see if she was alright, to make sure she didn't get beat up too much

long time coming...

I am normally forgetting all my dreams before I remember to write anything down, but I remember a few tidbits from last night.

I had two dreams, the first was kinda a nightmare..but not really scary. I guess it was just about ghosts.

I was watching from a third person perspective, so I wasn't he focus of the dream. It was some blonde girl..but I'm not sure who. She was being haunted, but it seemed like the ghosts just tried to stop her from doing things, from going places. They would keep her from opening doors, or doing simple tasks. I can't remember i saw ghosts, or everything that happened.
All I really remember was that the dream seemed to last for days, and this person was learning to cope with being haunted, and even began to force the ghosts out of her way. I only really remember something right before I woke up, where the ghosts stopped a door and wouldn't let her through the door. She ordered them to let her through the door, and was able to force the ghost(s) to let her by.

Kinda weird. I just remember a little scared when I woke up, cause who likes thinking about the possibility of ghosts, alone in the middle of the night?

The second dream.. I was a fireman. I have no clue what I was doing, but I know some weird things went on. Maybe because I saw a house burning down the other day, it made me dream of this?

Zombie Attack!

Who doesn't like to see zombies? I guess if they are attacking, its not fun to see them...

**I guess there was a zombie outbreak, and if you got bitten (or even scratched by a zombie) you could become a zombie. There wasn't a cure, people were becoming zombies left at right.

I think I was with a number of friends, but they slowly died off. All i really remember was when it was just me and my friend Nathan left. We were locked up in my house in California. As long as the zombies couldn't see you, they wouldn't attack. We were safe inside the house.

I don't remember when this was, but I thought I found a zombie in the basement, it was a guy and his head was bulging and throbbing. I tried to hit him a few times with something (a bucket maybe, I don't remember) but I couldn't kill him. Nathan said he wasn't a zombie yet, and if we found a doctor and a clean brain, we could save him (I guess there weren't many humans left, almost everyone was zombies). I believe he became a zombie and we had to kill him before we could call a doctor.

All the sudden my brother walked in the house, and he had been Zombiefied! But it was strange, because he could still talk, and still retained some of his memories. We figured out the only way to kill him would be to cut out his throat. I guess if he couldn't speak, he would die? So i grabbed onto my brother, held is head down, and Nathan found a kitchen knife. My brother was trying to move his head and bit us, but Nathan continued to cut at his throat. Finally one of my brother's bites landed on Nathan's hand as he was cutting. We knew it was the end, Nathan would be a zombie in not too long. I got cut on my hand with the knife after he passed it to me, and i got zombie blood in my cut. I didn't know if that would count and make me a zombie or not.

Nathan went to wash his hand, and while he was gone, my brother started talking to me, saying how we wouldn't make it out alive, we were all going to die. Then, as I was holding his head, his neck stretched like a rubber and as his body ran to open the door. I was terrified, once that door was open, zombies would see humans inside and rush us. My brother made it to the door and opened it.

We had to run away from the house. The zombies would get us in enclosed spaces. We were running, and eventually made it to a bridge (under the bridge at least, I remember looking in the water and seeing really bright goldfish for some reason). Just then, Nathan started to turn into a zombie. Close by zombies started to attack him and eat him as he was turning. I remember looking at him in horror, and I realized I was the only human left. The entire world was zombies, I was the only survivor.

I pulled out a gun, held it to my head, and pulled the trigger....

I woke up
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now that is weird. I awoke from my dream by killing myself. That is the weirdest ending to a dream I have EVER had. Who shoots themselves in the head in their dreams??

I wrote down a few keywords in a notebook when I awoke from that dream, so I could remember it in the morning.

I guess I had a few other dreams too, but I don't remember much. Here are the few clips i remember

1)It was the top of a mountain, and there was this huge dude (like from the movie 300). It was his mountain top castle. He wanted to show us a dragon he had captured. He grabbed this huge chains, and started pulling them in. Soon a big dragon came into view. It was trying to fly away, but he had chains attached to him, and our Roman friend was pulling him in. (there was also a mall with stores in the top of this mountain, everything was made of marble

2) I guess I was in some movie, and it was an after party for the movie release, and other stars were there (lots of purple and blue lights). Some big shot actor was asking me if in my future movies, I'd be willing to do nudity. I said I didn't think so, and he called me an amateur.

3) something about some elite forces fighting squad that fought sorcerers and monsters (in like fantasy type setting). There was some dude flying around on a rope trying to kill people. It was like a kite, but the lower in altitude he got, the harder it was for him to keep in the air. He made this smoke waves go across the grass field we were fighting in. Every time the waves went by, he was able to dive down low (i guess it created some kind up upward force he could fly above easier)

I wish i remember more about #1, and #3! Those might have been some crazy dreams too

In Panama.....kinda

At one point I remembered part of this. But not much anymore. Ill try to piece it together

**I was in Panama, visiting with friends. I was going to go meet up with my friend Isabel. I was staying in a house across the street from he(which i think is my apartment I'm living in right now).

(I said I can only remember parts of it)

For some reason I'm laying on the ground (half dirt, half cement)in the back of our garage. I could see Isabel with some of her friends in their yard. They were all in swimsuits and sun bathing. I was also in a swimsuit..and for some reason I wanted to dry off AND get a tan before I went over to meet with her.

They noticed me, and tried to get me to go over to their yard, but for some weird reason, I didn't want to get up. So they all came over to me. And then my sister was there, and I had to introduce Isabel to my sister. I did the introductions (even though I didn't know her friends), and I started to speak to them in Spanish, but they all spoke English fine. But my sister..well..she tried to be nice and wanted to say something simple in English they could understand. I don't remember what she said, but it was something like "nice to meet you, you're ugly......" She didn't finish her sentence, so she ended up insulting all of them.

I finally decided to get dressed and go over to Isabel's place and hang out with her and her friends. I wanted to bring some chips and also a photo book (not sure why). Every time i tried to pick up the bag of chips (salt and vinegar lays..I wasn't sure if they would like them) the bag ripped open and spilled everywhere.

I kept trying to pick up the chips, but it was taking a long time. I kept looking out the window to see if Isabel was still sitting on her chair in the yard. I guess I had to get my stuff and go to her house before she went inside, or I wouldn't be able to see her again.

After 2 hours of trying to pick up the chips, I still hadn't left my house. She was still outside, but it was getting dark, and I was going to lose my chance to go hang out that night. Why are chips so hard to pick up, why does the bag keep ripping??(it felt like 5 minutes trying to pick them up, but 2 hours passed)
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Very weird. I'm obviously going to panama in a few weeks, so that is on the top of my mind. Weird Isabel is in there since I haven't met her yet (i will in 2 weeks), but I guess it just shows I'm nervous about the meeting? Since she is going to be taking me to a number of different places, and picking me up from the airport, maybe my brain thinks she won't like me after seeing me at the airport, and then she won't want to take me to places in Panama.

Mah brain is crazy, that's all I can say!

(That's Isabel by the way)

A pirates life for me!

Wow...just wow. And it's really a shame I can't remember this entire dream, it is a doozy!

**So i lived in a seashore town. A big town, lots of people. There was this rumor in the town about sea dragon creatures that had super powers that attacked ships and have been living for centuries. They weren't normal sea dragons, there were like 7, and they were very bright colors..and they were only heads that lived under water.

I was intrigued, so I went down to the dock and walked out on the pier in a secluded bay. As I walked out to the end, the ground started rumbling and all these bright colored tentacles started coming out of the water all around me. It was the sea monsters!

Well, they came out of the water, but they weren't that impressive. They were not massive dragon heads...just rainbow colored seaweed clumps. They did speak to me though. They said they had lost some of their power, and needed me to help them. They wanted to give me special powers. Suddenly the seaweed grabbed me, held me down, and put cut a gash in my forehead. They then cut off a piece of seaweed (i think it was the tan colored seaweed that cut off a piece of itself while the bright orange one held me down) and put that piece in the gash in my head, and then closed up the cut. They said this would give me special powers, but only if I hunted the PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN for them, and killed them. That is how they would get their powers back.

After this speak, they all then went back to their shells to hide beneath the dock, and I went back home. It looks like it was time for me to assemble my pirate crew! And...I think I was starting to turn into a pirate zombie (that sure doesn't sound like a good superpower). Better than being a pirate vampire (which I thought about), at least a pirate zombie can walk around during the day.

Well, somehow we managed to get a crew of people (and talking animals...like this crazy hermit crap / midget/octopus thing dude). There were at least 2 guys, 1 girl, and a bunch of talking animals, some made up. The midget crab octopus dude had red octopus legs, had this see-through shell over his body, and the upper half of his body was human(LOOK, I JUST DREW A PICTURE OF HIM!!!).He was leaving his new wife to come be pirates with us (his wife and rainbow sparkly tentacles, a fishbowl shell, and the upper half of her body was like a fairy from Disney Cinderella).

So we got to the dock, and it seems we had the black pearl for a ship. Everyone was impressed, because it is a bad ass ship (though the ship wasn't the black pearl from the show..it was this cool, sleek, bone white ship, made out of driftwood it seems). We had this magical sea animal (maybe a whale, but i think it looked weird) tell us he would teleport us to somewhere far away so we could begin out pirate hunting. Next thing I know, I was underwater in this long line of animals, and we started to move.

It seems "teleporting" was holding on to someone else's legs as you were pulled super fast underwater. But we could breathe underwater, so it was ok. There were hundreds of creatures in this train, including seagulls, pigeons, penguins, and way more. I think i had to hold onto a seagulls legs. Luckily all this animals could talk, they all knew what we had to do so we could "teleport." For some reason, my crew was allowed to stay in the boat, and they were just towed along behind us.

This sea train teleporting moved fast! It was like superman flying underwater. It was fun too, we even went by docks and yelled at people as we flew along underwater. After quite a while of being pulled, I felt a tugging from the front of the train, and it seems we stopped and they wanted me to put my head above water.

We stopped at a lighthouse. One of the crew was flashing a light out at us to signal we were stopping for food. It wasn't a normal light, it was this crazy red/black colored swirly light. I guess one of the senior pirates in my crew quickly turned off the light (it was like a 16 year old kid who was shining it out at us), he said it was the light of the black pearl, and everyone would know we are here if they saw it (its a pretty distinctive color).

So we all climbed this lighthouse. It said it served beef stew, and we were hungry. My first pirate companion came down the ladder with a cup of beef stew, and I asked how it was. He said it was ok, but it was hot, which was good. So I waited in line at the lighthouse to get me a cup of beef stew for dinner.
------------------------------------------------------------------

WWWOOOOOWWWW. This dream makes no sense. Fairies with octopus legs living in upside down fishbowls??? Crazy magical seaweed?? Talking animals?? Pirate Zombies (me)??

There is no way I can even try to think of how this dream came to pass. I haven't watched zombie movies, pirate movies, talking animal movies, or done anything like what happened in the dream. We can just pass this off as 100% RANDOM. AND AWESOME!
This dream is pure win. Like an acid trip while you are sleeping.

Bob & Tom, and the NEW Newegg

Well, I'm not sure if there were actually two dreams, or if it was just one long dream and I forgot the middle or what. But anyways, there are two different things I remember from last night.

**For some reason I told my parents about the Bob & Tom show (early morning radio show). It's weird, cause its really not a very clean show, and not something I see my parents liking. But anyways, I had told them about it, they listened to it, and thought it was hilarious. Shortly after they listened to it, they heard that the Bob & Tom comedy tour was coming to Redding, and they immediately bought tickets for it.
I didn't find out that they were going till the night of the show, and for some reason, I had to get a hold of them. I went to the convention center where it was being held, and I was trying to search for them. I got there when the show started, and I ended up backstage in my search for them. I remember looking out onto the stage from behind, and it was some weird looking guy (he might have had horns, not sure) and he was telling redneck jokes, and might have been singing.
--and I don't remember anymore. I don't think i found my parents.

The second part (or second dream maybe), my brother wanted help to build a new computer, he had been asking me prices of different items, and what hardware worked best for running certain programs. He had given me a list of the parts he thought he should get. He wanted parts that would run his stupid financial programs the best, and he picked some weird stuff (made up, imaginary dream-only stupid things that would build a horrible computer).
So I decided to go onto newegg.com and price out a good computer for him that would serve him just as well, and cost less money.
I got on my computer, went to newegg, and it seemed that newegg had redone their entire website. It seems Elijah Wood now was the official mascott for newegg.com (and not just normal Elijah Wood, he had some spikey hair, a weird black suit, and kinda looked creepy). He was on every page in some sort of flash animation.
First I searched for processors. I thought my brother should get the new Intel i7. I hit search, and Elijah wood's face popped up. While newegg was searching the database, it just showed an animation of Elijah frantically looking from side to side, eyeballs all spazzing out.
For some reason it couldn't find the processor, but in the i7 search, it did find lesbian (or was it bi ) only bikinis. The picture had some chick in a bikini, and Elijah trying to hug her.
I had no clue why it found a weird item like this when I was trying to look for computer processors, until I saw I wasn't in the "computer hardware section." It seems newegg has become like amazon.com, and sells anything and everything now. I clicked on the hardware section and.....

----------------------------------------------------------------------

That's it, thats all I can remember.
So freaking strange. WHY? WHY ARE THESE THINGS IN MAH HEAD?!

Hmm..maybe I'll try to figure out a reason for these in my posts too.

The first one...I listen to the Bob & Tom show on my way to work in the morning..so that could have had something to do with it.

Second...I started watching "Let the right one in" last night, and a teacher read from "The hobbit." Maybe my brain made a connection to that?
And I always use newegg.com to buy stuff..and my brother is always doing weird things.

Really? A Saxophone?

Ok, this one came completely out of left field. I mean, I can understand why my dreams might be about following certain games and junk like that, but playing a saxophone?

**So, I really liked this song I was hearing, and I was singing it, I believe it was something by switchfoot (but the more I think about it, I don't think it was a real song, was just a good old made up dream song). There was a talent showing coming up, and I was supposed to perform some sort of talent, so i figured that I should get a group together and play this song. What a great idea!

I believe the talent show was sponsored by my work. Nu skin. There was a big gathering down here at commerce park out on the grass, everyone ready to watch. So for my group, there was me singing (so I thought), Jake Fowler on guitar (though we aren't playing anything by Guns and Roses), and Nathan Waxer, my old grade school / high school friend on drums (no clue how he got in this dream).

So first up I guess Jake wanted to play his own song, which I wasn't a part of. Waxer on drums, Jake on guitar, and there was another person, but no clue who it was. As they started to play, I walked back to my car to get my stuff ready for my song. I could hear Jake plugging away on his guitar, their some was something about an atomic bomb, it was really strange. Like a song you would hear at a carnival. Jake sure does pick some weird songs.

I practiced the words of my song in my head as I walked back to my car, cause who wants to look stupid and forget words while you sing. I got back to my car, pulled out a baritone saxophone, and started to warm up. That's right, I was no longer singing the song, I was going to play the baritone saxophone in a rock song next to Jake on guitar, and Waxer on drums.

As I started to play, I suddenly realized, I've never played the baritone saxophone in my life! I tried to play a scale, good, easy, I got it. But where are the keys to play flats and sharps?! I tried several times to play a b flat..no luck, I had no clue where the key was to play it. I started to panic a little, how was I supposed to learn how to play a song for a talent show in two minutes on an instrument I had never played??

Odly enough, I still had in the back of my mind that I was going to sing the song too. No clue how I was going to sing while playing the saxophone at the same time....
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

And that was it. I had a friend once in high school, Josh Roberts, he played the baritone sax. But I haven't even thought about playing an instrument for 10 years, let alone one I've never even touched before.

Why in the world would I dream about performing? This makes no sense. I can at least reason why I had dreams about certain games, I do follow a few that are in development. But playing a saxophone, in a talent show? WHAT?!

My future trip to Panama...6 years ago?

Well, I don't remember too much of this one, but it had to do with my Panama trip that I will be taking next month.

**I was in Panama, taking my vacation, traveling around and having fun with friends. There was a long bus ride, and I was just having fun on the bus. We stopped at some building, and I went inside. It was a Panama mission change meeting. Somehow I was back in missionary clothes, and for some reason..this didn't see strange. I thought that "well, this is my last change meeting before they send me home (6 weeks left), and I hope they send me someplace cool." I discussed with another missionary that I thought they were going to send me to Bocas del Toro.

So they gave me a new area, but for some reason I don't remember what the area was. I left the meeting with all the other missionaries, but I accidentally got on the wrong bus. I got back on the bus I came in on, just a tour bus, instead of getting on the missionary bus. I felt dumb, but I still walked up and down the aisles, pretending like I was just looking for any last belongings I had left before I went to my last area.

----------------------------------------------------------

**Also, as a sidenote, in some other dream, I remember I sat down at my computer, checked my email, and there in HUGE BOLD LETTERS was a keycode for the Starcraft 2 Beta. Was just a small clip from some other dream, but that is all I remember about it.


----------------------------------------------------------

Well, thats all from last night. Nothing too interesting really, just some weird random stuff. Hopefully writing this stuff down will help me start to remember my dreams that are really off the wall. Trust me..they get crazy!

Diablo 3, or is it Diablo 4

Well, here we go, to start out the journal. I really don't know if this dream came about last night or not, but it's been on my mind today.

**Keeping up with the facts on the progress and development of the new Blizzard game Diablo 3, I ran across something very interesting: Diablo 3 was already released! What Blizzard was actually working on was Diablo 4, and no one seemed to remember that Diablo 3 was already released and sold two years previously.

I went to a store, and sure enough, there was the box. I couldn't believe no one realized that this game was released years ago. No sites had reviewed it, there were no fan sites, but there it was on retail store shelves. Blizzard even called their new Diablo "a sequel to Diablo 2," did they forget too that they already made a sequel??

I went home, installed the game, watched the opening cinematic, created myself a character to play (something of a warrior / knight / paladin hybrid). I don't remember what I named it (probably something like poo_deluxe, who knows) and set off to explore the duneons of the game.

The game was dark..very very very dark. Almost hard to see anything at all in the game. But it did look pretty realistic. My guy walked around town, dead trees, gothic style buildings and fences. I think everything was colored black, at midnight, with no moon.

My guy walked to some church for the first level of the dungeon..and was about to go down....and Bam, I got side tracked and had to go do something away from my computer.

AND I NEVER SAT BACK DOWN TO CONTINUE THE GAME!!

I remember thinking many times that I really should try to play the game more, to see what it was like, but i never even loaded the game again. It just sat there..begging me to play it, but I was too busy doing other things**
--------------------------------------
How sad! So people understand, Diablo 2 is my favorite game of all time, and I've been playing it a lot recently (it's a 10 year old game). I've been keeping tabs on Diablo 3 which is currently in devolpment, so I guess all this somehow leaked into my dreamstate.

The weird part is, I think it has been in mutiple dreams, but just as a side note. I don't even know when I dreamed about this "hidden game" but the idea of it, I THINK, has been in other dreams. Just a passing thought, the idea of "oh yeah, i still have that new Diablo game on my computer I should play sometime" just pops up as a random idea. I swear its happened in multiple dreams, but you never know, sometimes you can have a single dream, and it will seem like you've had that idea for years.

And that is my first post. I doubt I'll re-read or edit this, so good luck making it pas run-on sentences and spelling errors!

Hopefully I'll remember some more soon (though if its a lucid dream, that might not be too appropriate to read)
