I like to say anybuggy. Sure, it might be immature (are you reading this, Charlotte!!!!?????) and childish, but it's fun. Oh, for dreams, I meet celebrities, go to my friends' houses, and it doesn't look like their house, etc. And last year, for two months after Nutcracker, I was dreaming that I was in it, as a flower or something, and we kept learning the same thing over and over without actually learning it! My imagination runs away half the time...Fine, all the time!

Wednesday night I had a nightmare that our house (only it was our house with rooms that I had never seen before :P) was on fire. My mind can be extraordinarly inventive when it comes to details, and I have rarely been so terrified in my life. You know how when you wake up from a beautiful dream you want to go back to it when you fall asleep again but you never can? This was the opposite - every time I closed my eyes I smelled smoke and chemicals and heard the hiss of cracked gas lines and the laughter of someone - I can't remember who it was, but he was terrible - and saw the chaos of leering shadows flirting with the flames. I was exhausted, but I couldn't sleep - I was running on sheer fright that renewed only after bursts of that dream-fear. It was the most miserable night I have ever spent. And now I'm usng frilly words and descriptions, and I need to go to bed. :P But now I'm scared to. If I can't sleep tonight, I will blame it on you, Laura. I hope you feel guilty. (Jk, jk)

I once dreamed that I had been kidnapped, and we were in my aunt's house, only it was different.  But anyway, it was very frightening, and I did all kinds of things to try and escape.  *shudder*

The last dream I had was a really good one, but um, personal. One interesting one I had a couple nights ago was exploring the bottom of a lake that had just gone way down. There was a tunnel to crawl through (which had been completely underwater, but now wasn't), and boulders to climb on, and all kinds of cool stuff.

I've never said, "everybuggy," but I can start!

I had a dream a few months ago in which Artemis Fowl kidnapped me. Actually, for some reason, I thought it was really cool that Artemis Fowl was real. I'm not sure how I knew he was Artemis Fowl, but he looked just like I'd always imagined Arty would look like, and I just assumed it was he. I was so happy, I got into his car as soon as he asked me to (which I'd never do in real life), so it technically wasn't a kidnapping. However, as soon as he took me to his mansion, which was pink and ugly, he removed a disguise. '"Artemis" was actually a thin teenage girl with long blonde hair and sapphire-blue eyes.

Then, she laughed an evil laugh and locked me in the bathroom. 

Fortunately, I had a cell phone with me, and she hadn't seen it. I used it to call the police.  They let me leave, but the  woman wasn't arrested or even fined... Then, when I got home, my mom removed a disguise. She was really the kidnapper, and she wouldn't tell me what had happened to my real mom.

I had a more pleasant but  not any less weird dream 2 nights ago. A cat that resembled Firestar said, "Wife, I need to go on a business trip. You can't come, but would you like to go to the moon while I'm away? I have a ticket here for the 5:00 rocket."

I wanted to go to the moon so badly, I didn't deny being his wife. I took the ticket (which I'd never do in real life) and went onto the rocket. It felt like a plane ride, but I'd forgotten to bring a book with me, so it was boring.

When I got to the moon, I found a building that said "Junior Lunar Choir" on it. I entered it. It was full of girls that looked jut like me, and one weary-looking director who asked me to sing a song I'd never heard of. When I told her so, she told me to learn it. When I asked how to do so, she gave me a book of songs and told me to memorize them all. When I asked why, she said the choir would be singing them in a concert in July. When I told her I couldn't afford to come back ever again (rocket tickets cost billions of dollars, and I'm 11!), she yelled at me. I then left.

I had a dream last week that a basilisk had escaped in our county and everybuggy had to wear sunglasses so if the basilisk looked at them they wouldn't die. Then I home and somehow we had moved, but it kinda looked like our house in some ways, and half like somebuggy's elses's house that we had known once. It was weird. 

Yeah, well, I've had some, let's just say interesting dreams! :)  For some reason, I haven't been remembering my dreams recently, even though I have a book for writing them down.  The book is in some closet, and I got tired of writing them down after the first couple of dreams. *looks around sheepishly* 

Anyway this dream I don't remember to well, but... I was Harry Potter somehow, and I was outside in the small front yard of some castle, but I don't think it was Hogwarts.  I had to collect eggs in the yard, and then go into the castle and do something with them.  I had this dream so long ago, that I don't remember why.  So there was this dragon in the castle and I had to avoid it.  And it was coming closer... dun, dun, dun.... And then I was magically transformed into me again and I was in this small, one-story house that was reeeally old and I thought it was haunted.  There was another girl with me and I think she was supposed to be my sister, but I don't have a sister, so I really don't know.  There was this door that creaked loudly whenever we moved it and that creeped me out.  I don't remember anything else, so I guess I woke up or something.

Sorry, that was really long and boring and confusing.  But just a comment.  Don't you think it's weird that sometimes you seem to know things in dreams that you wouldn't necessarily know in real life?  Like you know the guy standing next to you is the president, even though you wouldn't in real life.  You get what I trying to say here?  I just thought it was kinda weird.  There's probably some explanation somewhere, but I don't know it.

Okay, I need to stop ranting here. :P Farwell! *waves excitedly* *wide grin* *stops when she realizes everyone's staring at her* *hits submit* :D

Just a question for everybuggy- do you have any tips for remembering dreams?  I wake up with my alarm (which is a radio station actually) and then I get up and get dressed and things like that.  Then an hour later, I remember that I had had a dream the night before, but all I remember is little clips from it, and then the more I think about it, the more I forget it.  And then it's gone.  What does everybuggy do to remember dreams?  Or do you not?
