Today I had a dream that I ended up at Bonnaroo with my kids...At the entrance the Bonnaroo workers led me down this street and told me to park in this driveway. I assumed that it was OK to stay in the house that the driveway belonged too.... So, I bring my stuff up into the house(which is full of Bonnarooers) and take a room that is empty. I am sitting there feeling bad that my kids are going to have to endure the heat. Then I see a door in the room, I open it and see that someone has already claimed this room. There's a sleeping bag and camping gear along with all dainty girly jewelry. So, I take my boys and our stuff and put it back into the car and am sitting in the car trying to figure out which way to go and what to say to the Bonnaroo staff about my situation(with needing another spot)...Then wagons full of Amish people and a parade follows them down the street and I can't go anywhere. ?wtf?????
Maybe I'll throw myself to the dogs, but my back's not to the wall Maybe I'll lay some bricks for the man, but the days just aren't that long So if I settle back and chill will I see far enough to feel the angel's dream? I thought it was the Story of the World!
Man was last nights Roo dream vivid. Mostly about relaxing at camp..but Bonnaroo did have 3 holes of a par 3 disc golf course......I mean I would like that but seems like it would be a little too dangerous.

Everyone should start taking melatonin. It's an herb that helps you sleep (I take it for my insomnia) that can be purchased at any health store. It also makes you always have lucid dreams. I'm bringing it to Bonnaroo to help relax.

Haha, yeah I use to use that to help me sleep. It did give you some insane dreams.
im studying dreams in psychology class right now and we are learning about famous people with odd sleeping habits and Salvador Dali used to sleep in a recliner and he would hold a spoon in his hand over a metal pan. When he became immobile during sleep he would drop the spoon on the pan, waking him up so he could remember his dreams and put them on canvas. No wo0nder his paintings are so insane.

how much time should you set aside for sleep with this stuff or is it really a problem if you dont devote enough time to sleeping?
See, now I'm having dreams about justwaiting in the exit line to get into Roo and just chatting it up withthe people around me. Mr Roo dreams are starting to get more and more vidid and man does it piss me off when I wake up and I wasn't actually at Roo. sigh only 97 days now

I had a really weird Roo dream last night (my 2nd now), this time I was just arriving with some friends and my gf, and we met up with this really "hippie-d out" Liv Tyler and we smoked a joint as this giant UFO flew over us and toward the main stage.... It was sweet, and I guess Led Zeppelin was supposed to be headlining.

Not to get totally off topic, but Melatonin is a hormone, not an herb. It is produced by your pineal gland in response to darkness and is involved in the regulation of sleep. I have no idea where suplements get their melatonin, but I don't think it is a plant source. more info at www.erowid.org/smarts/melatonin/melatonin.shtml
and now back to your regularly scheduled dreams thread

don't think this is a miracle sleeping pill. i was -really- anxious the night before we left for langerado this year, and the friend whose house i was crashing at gave me some melatonin to help me sleep. i took 3 pills (forget the mg, maybe 5 each? whatever is standard) and still barely got 4 hours of sleep that night, and the time i was asleep my dreams were -not- lucid...i didn't even have any that i remember.
i DO hear that it helps, but i didn't really notice a difference at all.

Been experimenting with melatonin lately. Seems to work just as well as Tylenol PM. Haven't noticed any lucid dreaming tho.... unless..... hey, am I really at my PC right now?....hmmmm.....
Post by spookymonster on Apr 7, 2007 21:07:55 GMT -5
Tylenol PM knocks the sh!t out of me the next morning... I'm draggin' my ass for a good hour or two after waking up. Haven't really noticed the same with melatonin tho'.
wow, coincidence that i had a roo dream last week. it was pretty intense, very life-like, i even woke up sweaty form the roo heat, even though it snowed that night, weird.
anyway, i live by a huge park with a built stage for summer shows. nothing big, just talented locals put on a few shows once in a while, and i usually can hear everything they play cause i'm so close.
well imagine this, me sitting on my flat roof top watching the radiohead set from last year and the light shows all from my roof, and seeing the swarm of people all over.
i also remember opening my house for fellow rooers to crash for the weekend. it was a mindfuck of a dream

A few days ago i had an insane dream where my brother and girlfriend dropped me off to get food right before we entered the ROO. We were seperated and i had to walk into the campgrounds, but i kept getting snagged into some situation or another. Kinda like the fighting dreams where you can't punch, or anyhting where you feel immobilized. It was like that but with trying to get to ROO. I finally got in and realized that we were 3 weeks early and my ride went back to east TN. Don't remember much after that, except waking up really upset.

The issue isn't how much time you should devote to it. It is how you get to and stay asleep. The herb helps you relax and fall asleep. You can devote as much time to sleeping as you want/can. It is all up to you.
It's spring break for UW-Madison so it's really slow everywhere and I've spent about 50 hours at work this week day dreaming about Wilco jamming out at sunset with me in the front of a crowd of tens of thousands of people...

has anyone ever had dreams in which they're actually experiencing a druq trip?
i've had a few (while sober) . . . and they've felt exactly like the real thing. heady stuff.
i'm also prone to really bizarre waking dreams, like i'll wake up in the middle of the night and be propelled into a stream of conscious dream scenario involving the things that are actually around me... like believing piles of clothes are dead animals. it happens at least a couple times a week (my poor roommate).
the other night my younger brother sleepwalked out of our house and tried to drive away in our car. pretty crazy stuff. my mom heard him honk the horn and went out to see what the deal was. he had put the keys in the ignition and shifted the car into reverse, but couldn't get the car to turn on all the way (i guess performing tasks in a specific order to start a vehicle is hard to do when you're asleep).
i'm going where the sun keeps shining, thru' the pouring rain, going where the weather suits my clothes. backing off of the north east wind, sailing on summer breeze, and skipping over the ocean like a stone.

I had a really surreal dream about the ThunderCats last night. They were on the run. In fact, I think they were on the run because they were "illegal immigrants" or something.
Maybe I'll throw myself to the dogs, but my back's not to the wall Maybe I'll lay some bricks for the man, but the days just aren't that long So if I settle back and chill will I see far enough to feel the angel's dream? I thought it was the Story of the World!

^ tell me about it. that's why it was so bizarre.
it really got me wondering about the power and potential of the human mind. i've constantly had weird sleep experiences growing up, somniloquy and somnambulism, sleep paralysis and waking dreams/hallucinations. now that i think about it, it just so happens i'm doing a huge (8.5 ft x 9.5 ft) collaged self portrait for my drawing class right now where i'm putting myself in the place of joan of arc in the famous painting by jules bastien-lepage:
