Actually I do.
I keep having this recurring dream of a chick riding a dick. At first it seems great but then I focus in on it and the chick also has a dick of her own. And it keeps spinning and spinning to the tune of Dead or Alive's "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)". I can't get it to stop either. It's like some sick ladyboy porn form of Chinese water torture.
I seriously think I'm starting to lose my mind.
One that used to annoy the hell out of me was the tetris dream. Its not even fully a dream - I'd be in this semi-asleep state and my mind is firmly convinced I need to win the game to fully fall asleep... so the squares just keep falling and falling and falling.. as the hour goes by. Every now and then I'd regain consciousness, roll over, suppress the desire to put my head through a wall and close my eyes... seconds later I'm back in my endless Tetris hell.
Got the same thing with maths formulae at exam time when I was at university. The only way to sleep is to solve the formula.. which is completely unsolvable.
I've had others similar, but those two have been the most traumatic and played a large role in making me who I am today.
The mind is a terrible thing to taste.
Yep, happens to me alot when i stare at something all day...... usually happens when i go fishing with a bobber. I don't even blink. Perhaps that has something to do with the beer though. Don't drink and ftp!
turbo makes sweet $$, don't you worry. Ask her nicely and she might even show you a pic of her kewlios treadmill workstation...
I write code in my dreams sometimes. If I've been working on a particularly hairy bit of code and I can't get it to work right I'll go to sleep and quite often last thing in the morning I'll dream the exact code, get up and type it out and usually it works first go. These are the only times ever when I can write code that works perfectly the first time.
The Tetris effect... Common amongst programmers and tetris players and probably IM's... In my tetris dreams I used somehow frame my life's problems as a tetris board and all the activities and components I could use to solve my problems somehow became shaped like tetris blocks, in a weird abstract acid fucked sort of way... Except there was no acid involved.
Something like, I hate my job was the problem, so one block would be my CV some other blocks would be potential employers and possible places I'd want to be so I'd have make a CV block, an empoyer block and a place block fit together to get the job I wanted in the right place.
Never could solve them, drove me so nuts I had to stop playing it. Ironically shortly after that I found time to send my CV out and got a new job.
I remember being totally out of sleep, and spending 15 minutes thinking about how I could compress any data into a cyclic hash, and then reverse it. Meaning, I could compress any amount of data into 4 bytes. Took me "only" 15 minutes to figure out how fucking retarded I am. Went to sleep quickly thereafter.
Wow, I thought I was the only one! I'm dead tired then BAM! Decent idea to keep me awake for hours in bed but then seem to think about it so much that I lose interest the next morning or just half ass the project to spit it out before work.
I have random dreams, and not just one or two. Like 10.
The ones from last night are:
Saw a friend from Norway at a Bar.
Something with my youngest brother.
Was at my mothers house.
Walking down the street in Madrid
Another dream about me sleeping and dreaming something crazy...
Fucked up, eh?
lol money lol
