I don't know if it's being cooped up at home that's causing it, or lack of being around people, or just my overactive mind- but I have been having intense dreams lately. Good ones, bad ones, funny ones, sad ones- and really, really weird ones.
I've considered starting a dream journal just to recount the weirdness of them all. I only vaguely remember some, and some are vivid memories, but regardless, when I'm actually asleep, they're so intense that I wake up in a daze because it feels so real (even if it doesn't make any sense within the confines of the real world).
Like, a few weeks ago, I had this weird dream about my Grandpa. I actually had to text my Grandma to check in one him because of the severity of the dream. I don't remember much about the actual dream itself, I just remember weird, psychedelic swirls, like a tie-dye shirt, and my Grandpa in the middle of it all one minute, and then he was gone the next. And it just kept happening, with various weird bits thrown in here and there.
And then just a bit ago I had a migraine so I napped half of the day away, and kept having recurring odd, sorta romantic dreams about this guy who was kind of a bad boy, but we had to keep sneaking away even though we weren't doing anything bad, but it was taking place in, like, this really long mansion-style house with tons of stairs and rails and weirdly-shaped rooms. And we'd end up in one room, and have like a date, our parents would find out and get mad, and then the dream would like... start over? Like a video game of sorts. It was bizarre (and for some reason the dude looked like Devon Bostick but I couldn't begin to explain why).
Essentially, my dreams get progressively weirder and weirder each time I fall asleep. I have dreams that I'm trapped in a shopping mall and keep getting arrested for shop lifting even though I didn't shop lift. I have dreams about my family. I have dreams about my friends. I have dreams about Stranger Things (not even the characters, just the world they live in??). I have dreams about dance and about sleeping itself, which is really trippy.
It's just so weird to be totally chill, and then fall asleep, and wake up feeling like I've been transported to a different world. Especially the dreams where it feels like I'm actually living it instead of watching it play out, if that makes any sense. It's all just very peculiar.
There's not much of a point to this post except to ramble about my dreams; so comment down below what the weirdest dream you remember having is. Let me know I'm not alone in the weirdness, haha!
