Mexican Swim meet

I dreamt that I was a famous Mexican political figure - Roma. Roma never actually existed (I had to check Google to be sure), but in my dream Roma was an incredibly rich communist leader who lived in the 1920's who bet a fortune on a swimming challenge. All he had to do was complete the long swim (about half a mile) and he would have won the money. Everybody thought it would be an easy win for him, but alas the spectators were in awe when he gave up for no apparent reason.

My dream started out with me, err.... Roma, diving into the pool and swimming. I swam and swam and swam - I could see myself from above. I swam underwater for part of the race and then above water for another part of it. Then, when I was about halfway done, the water started draining out of the pool. I looked up and noticed it, and became very scared. In a panic, I tried to get out of the pool, but I couldn't because the edge of the pool was so high above me. I managed to find some sort of padded equipment hanging in the pool, and pulled myself out using it. When I got out, all of the spectators were gone (they had given up and gone home because I had lost) and all that was left was the swim meet organizer.

She handed me a nice warm Starbucks cappuccino. "That was really nice of her", I thought to myself. I really enjoyed the cappuccino.

Lucid dreams that I don't remember

I had a dream, which was a culmination of a number of lucid dreams that I've had that I don't remember. Unfortunately, I don't remember much about any of the lucid dreams that I supposedly had. I'm not even sure that I had the lucid dreams in the first place.

My subconcious is evil :-).

Hello Mr. Boss

I had this dream that I was my boss, John Renfroe. I spent the entire dream figuring out a mathematical formula to optimize the resource usage of developers. I woke up before I got a chance to see if it would work :-). I don't remember the main criteria that I used to assign a number/variable to a developer, but it was something silly, like hair color or height or something.

Inside the Matrix?

Although i can remember parts of this dream really clearly, it's really hard to describe. I was a program - not a programmer writting code, but a program. I was a malicious one at that - I was inside of a browser, taking links that people were clicking on, and substituting parts of them such that they were really going to other places, that were not where the person wanted to go.

A number of people at work were also programs, including Nick and Mikal. We were all trying to do the same thing - substitute these links. I don't know why, but Mikal was really impressed by me (err... me the program, not me the person :-)).

Turkish is hard

I was writting software that was in Turkish, except that I don't know turkish, so it was surprisingly difficult.

Horse eating cocaine

I dreamt that I was on some kind of vacation in Calgary, and that my family was there too. The mall was HUGE though, possibly the size of a city. A large part of the dream was me walking around the different parts of the mall, and I felt like I had seen a lot of it before, on a different vacation or maybe when I was a kid.

At one point, I came up on a horse that was hungry. The guy in front of me was showing his son how to feed the horse. "You see son," he said, "you take the cocaine out of your pocket and you put it all right in the horse's mouth." He took a massive hand full of cocaine out of his pocket and demostrated giving it to the horse. The cocaine was foaming at the mouth of the horse, but the horse seemed very glad to eat all of this cocaine. It was hard to tell if the son was impressed. I was shocked.

I also remmember the man wipping his hand clean of the cocaine on a brick wall. It left this massive white streak of cocaine on the mall.

As an aside, I also vaguely remember somebody saying that it was Germany's 40th aniversary this year, and that Germany was going to celebrate that. It was a very long dream, although I don't remember much of it.

Maybe my subconcious wanted me to realize that I was lucid. I'd like to have a conversation with my subconcious. That would be cool.
