Hello! I am exactly mid-tour on the West Coast with the New Pornographers. It’s simultaneously physically punishing and a release of joy. It doesn’t leave a lot of room for creative thought, hence my sleepy presence last week here at The Lung. I have a lot of crazy dreams as a result of my decreased “doing” and thinking time.
Dreams are such strange and fascinating things. My life in my dreams is full of chaos, there's always a battle coming and I can't find my sword, or any sword, and I have to fight the invaders with a mop handle or something.
Sometimes pets that have passed on will visit me, those are the sweetest dreams.
Freud claimed that dreams are the "royal road to the subconscious." Maybe, but that means that delving into it isn't exactly a well-planned and highly organized trip we get to take at night. It's more like buying the weirdest storage unit in the world for $100 and trying to clean it out... I used to dream about having to do complicated but high viz stuff with my First Sergeant hat on, Battle Dress uniform top, highly polished jump boots and... no pants! Think I was a bit concerned deeply that I might be showing my ass in what I was actually doing in life... I do agree with Kim Blantz tho -- if you must have weird dreams, horses, ravens and coyotes are the best partners in building an amazing although weird alternative universe.
Your first dream could totally be Danny McBride's next TV show. Perhaps you've taken up new writing projects in your sleep now too.
A couple weeks ago I had a brief dream you and I were having a conversation, which was all about you wanting to have a website built, for a mountain, like it was a person or something. Most of what I recall of this dream was me thinking, during this conversation, that that made sense, of course you'd want something like this done.
I think the first impressions of a dream you can actually can remember or a dream you wake from right afterwards, like you're supposed to remember it or take something from it, those impressions are likely the most telling, or useful, revealing. But thinking again about it now, I am also reminded of those images of Alaskan mountain ranges you shared in early October. So maybe there's that too.
Wow, what a dream. I have wild dreams sometimes and then look up dream meanings of images. Sometimes they fit how I'm feeling or thinking. Sometimes they're a little psychic about future events, though I don't count on it! I've read some of the SETH books, and "Seth" says that anything you think about, even briefly, may appear in your dream. The Danny McBride section is funny. Maybe you will work with him. The Horses giving birth seems positive to me, and your horses starving could be them missing you. Starving for affection. That's it from me!
The double edged sword of being able to remember dreams! For me I can recall then as I wake they waft off back into the mad ether of my crooked road brain. I think creative minds chastise the keep busy personality type with these lurid distortions or it is just too much cheese.
I had a dream this week in which you married my brother. I'm not sure what is more disturbing...
horses, ravens & coyotes - best dream participants.

Wild dreams . I imagined a dark stormy sky in the horse dream.

These dreams mean your crackers have crumbled
