Weird Dream
17 years ago
So I woke up early this morning to redo a sketch for a client, and after emailing it I went back to bed again. Baaad idea, because then I had this scary-ass dream:
My client somehow broke his way into my room and shook me awake. In his hand was the sketch I gave him earlier, and he was all,
"WHAT THE HELL IS THIS!? I can't tell what the heck is happening in this picture, and this kid looks too old! Is his foot chained to the ground? Where's his carpet knife? This is shit!"
And then he shows me a contract and yells, "You told me when I hired you that you'd have no trouble doing this! And that you'd look into sand and make him look on top of things! Why is he in a classroom? I wanted a carpet mill!"
By then, his complaints were becoming weird gibberish, and he started yelling numbers and threatening me.
"It's been ten thirty! Ten thirty one! Now it's already eleven twenty! You're only doing two pages a week and we're never going to make the deadline with you being so slow! If I don't see the next page in ten minutes I'm going to find someone else to do this!"
And he throws the sketch back at me. I take a look at it and think to myself "that's odd, I don't remember drawing Van Gogh in the middle of the frame and coloring him in with pencil crayons. And why did I give him a neon green snake staff? It's too saturated anyways - I should desaturate this"
And then I woke up. It took me about 5 minutes to realize that I was just dreaming since it was all like "wait a minute, I didn't draw any of those things in the dream". I was still afraid to check my email for like the next hour, though.

Wait fuck they do.
I know my sister doesn't get summer breaks.
things work random here. or you could say they just suck
You should have been in new zealand :> I heard they get four 1-month breaks.
Thinking back to it now though I can laugh and go "haha, what a silly dream"
Arguments and shouting in dreams, as in waking life, suggest that you are feeling in conflict or have opposing views on something or someone. Alternativly, they may be simply a release for negative feelings about someone or something that you are unable to express in waking life; in other words, your dream is allowing you to vent your frustration. The dream may also refer back to anxiety you experienced as a child when your parents were fighting and you felt powerless to stop them.
Contracts in dreams symbolize a personal or professional commitment in waking life.
I'd say a gypsy scammed you.
If you find that someone is shouting at you in your dream, this may be a warning, urging you to slow down and think things through; it may also, however, be a greeting or applause for your achievements.
I couldn't find better info on that other thing, sorry.
There isn't really that much to interpret in this one, it sounds like a pretty literal dream- feeling inadequate, fears of a commissioner going ballistic and hating the art, stress, etc.
I tend to be pretty in touch with myself, I know what a good bulk of what my dreams mean.
I see how someone would want a dream dictionary, but honestly if you just record all your dreams and compare it to what's going on with your life at the time, you start figuring out what the various dreams mean to you.
Like, I figured out dreams about overflowing toilets and tidal waves means I've under a lot of stress. A book would have probably said something generic about the properties of water to change and bring new life or something.
So maybe the guy from your dream lurks somewhere in the shadows, ready to strike and terrorize you with numbers and yelling? Bring along a big broom you can hit him with if he shows up. Afterwards you can fly away on it while you laugh hysterically and drops waterballoons filled with paint on people.
I still touch the back of my head to see if there's a bomb there.
Tick tick tick tick-
(the contract in the dream was imaginary, since I never signed one)
anyways cool dream! i wish i had more dreams lately
And when I wake up I look around and don't see a finished painting, and I'm all like "fuck"
ever had a dream where, for no apparent reason, your teeth start falling out?
sooo disquieting & uncomfortable!
Yeeeah.
Lucid Dreams.
In Lucid dreams, the dreamer is aware of dreaming and can decide whether to continue the dream or end it - so the dreamer essentially manipulates the dream.
There are still many aspects of the mind which are still unkown even to us. A little curiosity never harmed anyone. There is never a danger of knowing too much.
Shows how useful electives are, huh.
You wake up like, "Awwww."
I had this one where me and the Predator(who was asleep) from AvP were tied upside down by our feet from this tree branch. Suddenly, he woke up, cut himself down, and punched me in the nuts.. o.O
