Where in the World Isn't Bob Saget?

Oh...my dreams are always really weird and wacky. Last night I dreamed that my cousin, who is going to Disney with us this Summer, "adopted" a baby sloth. And then she started suspecting she was pregnant again, and wasn't sure she'd be able to go to Disney because she'd be too pregnant and they wouldn't allow the sloth on the plane.

And when I am stressed out, I dream about tornadoes. Like...I will be outside and see a tornado, and then as I look around it will be FULL of tornadoes...like 20 of them, all around me, and I have to try to contact my family to let them know they need to take cover.

My husband gets a kick out of hearing about my weird dreams.

I'm the queen of weird dreams!

Mine are all about my teeth falling out - which can mean a ton of things, chief among them, an inferiority complex ... but it’s probably not that. 😂

I also dream that I have pets and/or children that I’ve neglected to feed for months; and others where I show up late for the start of the school year by a couple of days or weeks. These probably mean that I am neglecting something in my life and need to get my carp together.

Guilty as charged. I actually thought about it, but our guests aren’t really big on the picture taking and they were hungry. We did ham, turkey, dressing , mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, green bean casserole, real cranberries, jellied cranberries (I hate the real ones), and rolls. Dessert was pumpkin pie (store bought) and a pie with mint cream cheese, chocolate pudding, and peppermint whipped cream (my concoction) - a dry run for Christmas....
Somebody told me I should treat myself yesterday, so I did. And yes, I took a pic.

I've had tornado dreams before. They're pretty terrifying from what fuzzy memories I have of them. It's usually just one tornado, though, and I'm having to outrun the darn thing. Catch is, it's difficult to keep track of as it's approaching, as there are usually obstacles (tall buildings, trees, etc.) blocking my view of it's pursuit. The scariest part of the dream occurs when I know it's very close, but it is completely obstructed from view, so I'm just guessing on what direction to run and hoping for the best.

Yet in real life, tornadoes never were a thing of fear, but fascination. We'd get 'em pretty close on occasion back when I lived down in GA. My Dad is a weather nut, and loves studying clouds, and so on. I blame him. And we weren't always smart about it either.
Growing up, more than once my Mom was heard scolding he and I, with the words: "Get back inside you morons and put the binoculars away!" during a tornado warning.
Mine started out with one tornado in the distance and as it approached, I would be trying to get my family warned...they are never with me in the dream....always somewhere across town or something, and I am not at home. I have to find a place to take shelter AND try to find a place they can go that is close to them. Then over they years, the dream progressed to more than one tornado, and not in the distance but all around me. I even had one dream where the tornado went right over the house I was in and blew out all the windows and I was hudled on the floor in the middle of the room, away from said windows, waiting for it to pass.

We saw many of them over the years, but never close enough to do damage in town. Then in 2005, one wiped out half of my home town, and my dad lived 20 miles out of town and his roof was ripped off. He slept right through it....scared me to bits because I was over here, he was over there and he was supposed to be at a family reunion in Kansas. When I heard about the tornado, I was relieved he wasn't home....until my cousin asked if I had heard from him because he never arrived at the reunion. It turned out, in true father fashion (my father, not fathers in general), he had woken up the morning he was to leave for Kansas, and realized it had been a few months since he'd had the oil changed in the pickup. He didn't want to make a long trip without changing the oil, and he didn't feel like going into town to get the oil changed, so he decided not to go. Didn't tell anyone about the change of plans, but decided to take a nap. And since the tornado knocked out power and telephone lines, no one could get ahold of him to find out if he was ok, and he slept through it, so he didn't even know there had been a tornado. :rolleyes:So he didn't think to let anyone know he was ok.
I DO remember my best friend and her dad out on the porch taking pictures of a tornado one year...I must have been around....12? And we were out playing, and one little girl said "Look! A tornado!" and so I went running up the street to tell my mom, who didn't believe me when I told her who spotted it. (the girl was not the brightest) But I showed her, so we grabbed the dog, and got in the car and drove to our friend's house because they had a basement. As we drove down our street, there was my best friend standing on the porch with her dad, taking pictures....my mother had some choice words about that..."idiots" being one of them. It never did reach town proper, though...just the very edge. And it ripped the cross off of the Catholic church at the edge of town. That was the only damage.

Oh I dream that I signed up for a class and have forgotten to go all semester and I have a final exam for it and don't know anything. Or that I'm back in high school and am several hours late...or I get there and realize I forgot something, so I go home to get it, and start doing other things and completely forget to go back to school. Or I dream about a summer program I did in high school....or about being on a speech and debate trip. I have a lot of dreams involving being back in high school.

I have “forgot to go to class” high school dreams.

I have forgetting dreams often - I forget why. I also have dreams about things falling out of the sky, but I finally figured that one out. It all goes back to an air show I had gone to with a college friend where we saw a plane crash. I guess it bothered me more than I realized at the time.

With me 95% of all dreams I have I do not remember. When I say I do not remember I am talking about, from the moment I wake up in the middle of one. I remember having a dream and that it was filled with anxiety, but, no idea what it was. I do have one recurring theme dream that I do remember. It is me trying to get someplace and not being able to do it. I can see my goal, be it a building or a location, it's always some physical goal, it is all within my sight and I can never get there. Something always gets in the way. It might be a car breakdown or just turning a corner and falling into a maze like situation that is impossible to find my way out of. I never make it to the goal before I wake up. When I wake up from those type dreams I cannot get back to sleep and my heart is beating rapidly.

On the surface it seems pretty textbook, and has to probably do with never quite making the goals that I have set. The only puzzling thing is that in these dreams the goal is always different and the only thing that is recurring is just not being able to get where I wanted to go. I'm sure Sigmund would have a field day with that simple diagnosis.

Are those union jobs? (I was just wondering if there were unions in Canada--didn't know if it was just a U.S. thing, for some companies. For whatever reason, I was surprised to see Canadians on a picket line.)
Lots of unions up here - mostly Canadian versions of the same ones you have.

Certainly anyone who works for ANY level of gov’t is unionized.
