RE: Doom Dreams - Greg - 10-28-2022
Dammit! I had U2 playing at my parent's house but I couldn't get in to see them. Then I segued in to having to do a filmed scene with David Hasselhoff. The first run through I wore sunglasses which no one seemed to like. During the second iteration, I was supposed to steal something as part of the rebellion which had nothing to do with filming. I probably shouldn't watch Andor right before bed.

I had about a million dreams last night. Just too many to narrate but the one thing that stuck with were the ashes mixed with sand. I was at some sort of wake/dinner and I was given a pinch of ashes mixed with sand in the palm of my hand. I was supposed to take the sand and swirl it around my mouth to clean my teeth.

I’ve been trying to remember my dreams for the last few days. I remember them as I’m waking and try to make mental notes, but they evaporate by the time it comes to D00M posting. It’s been frustrating…

A frag of last night's dream came back to me.
I'm driving a van with Stacy. She has control of the accelerator but I have the wheel. I notice that there's a club on the wheel and tell her to stop. We drift off the road and hit a parked car. We get out and proceed onward on foot, although I'm a tad concerned about the damage to the parked car.
PsychoAnal: Stacy thinks the van was because there was a van that was important in The Good Fight last night. We have a club on Phoebe because she's an old civic and the doors no longer lock (costs a ridiculous amount to fix it).
There was much that happened before and after this dream frag but that's all lost to my subconscious, and probably for good reason...

I dreamed I was assembling a sculpture made of pieces of wood joined by metal rods. Then it switched to a talking cat, that was me but also talking to me, and I/he said "I use my magic to help because it makes me better and makes the world better."

I dreamt that I woke up, went to bathroom, took my pills and started making breakfast… basically what I do every morning now. While making breakfast, I realized I was still in bed. I woke up annoyed that my subconscious would be so mundane and fell back asleep.
I had a festival dream a few days ago that I really hoped to remember and document here. Many of my festie co-vols were there, including Legbone. We were gathering and I realized I hadn’t set up camp. The site was uneven, with lots of trees with thick roots, but I found a place. Can’t remember much more but there was some reason I wanted to share that here (beyond Legbone). I have festie dreams whenever I get tht Jones to work a show. I don’t have anything booked for NYE and nothing is emerging as a candidate. Might just sleep. Perchance to dream…

I think you're supposed to clean house that night anyway

Thought that was just a Lunar New Year thing. Lunar New Year is Jan 22 next year. And you're supposed to do it just before New Year. You can't do it for the first three days of the observance - no sweeping then.
RE: Doom Dreams - King Bob - 12-10-2022
I remember you mentioning it but I got the wrong new year.
RE: Doom Dreams - Drunk Monk - 12-10-2022
Ha! I’m terrible at observing those rituals. Too lazy.

I am the manager at MQ6 (I was never a manager) and there’s a new employee so I’m showing him around, explaining the quirkiness of that theater. It’s crowded and I realize that I should’ve just told him to shadow another usher and that I haven’t shown him thr projection room. I get confused on what I’ve told him about free soda and the usher’s closet.
I was trying to sleep in this morning because I could and kept darting in an out of this dream as I lay in my half sleep. There’s a Facebook group dedicated to the MQ6 group. It’s amusing to see where they all ended up. Apart from ED & LB, I’m only in connection with one other. She retired from working for the water dept recently but we reconnected because she painted a mural for the school of one of the Shaolin monks I trained under, and then she moved to Santa Cruz. She was a manager and I’m jealous she’s retired already. There was another incident a few years ago when another woman drunk dialed me - that was really weird. We hadn’t communicated in years. I didn’t even know she had my number.
PsychoAnal: at the end of my last Friday work meeting, my NH coworker tells me she plans to sit in front of her tv in a snug blanket with a huge mug of hot cocoa and watch TWD whilst covering her eyes because it gives her nightmares. I share that I used to love horror but got burnt out after working at MQ6.

A festival dream. Yeah, getting that Jones and RM is trying to get me to LA to do Rolling Loud (a hip hop fest) and Lucidity (hippie rave - the rebirth of RM campouts and I do want to make this one because it’s it’s Santa Barbara and I don’t have the time).
It’s a talkdown dream. I walk back into camp at 3am and am confronted by several IPR patients freaking out because they are surrounded by a gaggle of gawking nooBs. I focus on one - he’s aphaisic and speaking in tongues. I’m abandoned by the rest of the crew with these IPRs.
Maybe it’s not so much of a craving dream but more of a flashback. That’s my Psychoanal.
I woke up with my mind racing, thinking of what I’d say is asked to do an inservice.
They are shifting lucidity and if I make it, I’ll work morning shift. Fuck night shift. I’m too old and broken for that. Besides I’ll want to run amuck. I need accomplices.
My legs are sore from Stacy’s birthday hike.

I had this dream like a week ago but it really stuck with me. I’m sitting in that cornerstone of Kung Fu - horse stance. Sifu Wing Lam corrects my posture by hooking my foot with his and pulling my stance wider. While it seems like a mundane dream to relate here, I was left with the distinct sense that it truly was my old Sifu, that he had somehow reached me from the beyond the grave to give me another lesson.
I’ve been having some knee issues this winter. That’s somewhat new for me. My knees have been okay so far, despite the strain of 50+ years of martial arts practice. Shaolin is very knee dependent, and on top of my shoulder issues, my achy knees have completely undone my practice. After all this time, it’s like having three flat tires and trying to drive hwy17 - a lifetime of work and ultimately nothing to show. I’ve reverted to the basics - stance work - and am trying to spend some time every day just sitting in horse. Previous to this winter, my daily regimen included some pubu exercises - that’s crouching stance where one leg is straight and the other is fully bent in a crouch with the heel flat on the ground. I used to work that a little after my qigong closing meditation but now I’ve squeezed horse in between.
It’s either my subconscious informing me that I must commit more to horse stance practice or my Sifu telling me the same from the great beyond. I’m going with the latter because my subconscious is seldom that clever.

Had a long involved dream about leading a tour to China and everything going awry. It was clearly a pre-TCEC stress dream.
RE: Doom Dreams - Greg - 05-01-2023
Is TCEC this week?
