Post your strange/interesting dreams here.
I can't think of much for myself right now, but the other night I dreamt my workshop was demolished and turned into a vegetable patch in my absence. I had to go through salvaging the odd diode from the dirt. I'm not sure how this worked since my workshop is in the basement of my house.
I once read of someone who dreamt he was arguing with his friend - in assembler. I can't find the reference.

I sorta had a daydream while on a hike about an hour ago... I deamed that I had developed a room temp supercundutor I sold to the government for like a billion dollers. Then I came up with a way to make it into a semiconductor that was good into like the 10^20hz
I think it was induced with the sense of sheer pride/joy of getting one of the 3 A's on the AP chem final, and the slight nervousness but mostly confidence of the AP test tomorow (which if I get >60% on will raise me from getting b's both semesters to a's both semesters...)

I don't know exactly if I were stressed out or what, but it was really strange for me and stressful!
Background: I was still in Highschool when it happened. The day before (or whatever) I had watched EEK The Cat because I loved that show. Half of the show was broken to 2 parts, EEK the cat, and 3 miscreant dinosaurs in a civilizied world much like our own, who were the worst criminals the 'dino world' had to offer. They were pulled out of their prison term to hunt down 2 humans with the latest 'Bee' technology at their disposal. It was a silly show, but I liked the goofiness.
There were 3 dinos. An anthropomorphic: tricerotops, raptor-like dino, and a clutzy nutty bronto. Yea, you should be able to see what I dreamed I was by the looks of things.
What happened: Somehow I found myself as the nutty bronto sitting in the back of a bus going down some stretch of road, totally stressed out. I think you know the look in the eyes when someone is really stressed out with lots of heavy lines. You see that a lot in cartoons when someone is totally devastated. So anyways, we're riding in the back of the bus, somehow (I don't remember the detail) the asteroid is announced that its coming to the planet and one of the guys is saying the scientists will find a way to 'deal with it'. I start freaking out! I grab my tail like a blanked and start screaming "We're all GONNA DIE!"
It was such a shocker that I woke up immediately trying to get my breath. I really hope I don't have another dream like that because I was shaking.

As a child I remember having a dream where I fell to a hole that appeared on the floor. Now I was in a big white empty room, there was just a white table with a battery holder on it with NiCd batteries in it Then I came and shorted it :P and the walls started to darken and carbonize, then I awakened.

I remember having some dreams of winning the lotto and then waking up and wondering where my moneys gone
I've had similar dreams. Waking up and slowly coming to realize that none of it was true, and wanting to go back to sleep to keep dreaming..
I rarely remember my dreams, but when I do, they're either incredibly distinct or equally abstract. I can remember an example of each...
A couple months ago, I had a strange dream where I was trying to paraglide off of a tall pole inside a massive hangar. I had to go out under the door though, which was almost completely closed. This proved impossible, and I smashed into the snow at a high rate of speed, then I walked off and drove around a city, viewing everything from a birdseye perspective. Cars were blobs, and streets were just darkened strips around lighter blotches of building. People kept crashing into each other, making it hard for me to go wherever I wanted to go, which pissed me off greatly.
My other example is from a dream later on that month. I woke up (in my dream) and looked around to see a very brightly lit room. There was nothing immediately apparent in the room. It was empty, with a hardwood floor, and light streaming in from an unseen window. For some reason I knew the room was mine, though it most certainly was not. Upon getting out of my bed (very light white sheets and blanket), I noticed a young girl huddled on the floor with her back to the wall. She seemed to be naked, or rather, that's what my dream would lead me to believe. I talked to her, although I don't remember any words exchanged. For some reason I had some intense feeling(s) for her, though the reasons for this don't seem apparent now. Dammit, that was not clear at all.

I have a few weird dreams. I had one once where I was trying to put together packets of data in my dream, but I think dreams like that are caused by overwork / working late at night, so you don't fully stop thinking - and it turns into a dream.
Another weird kind of dream I get is where I find myself in some unknown place, like a forest, but after a brief walk around I find some of my posessions scattered around - important things, like my laptop or digital camera. So I think ****! I'll have to find a way of getting all this lot back home!
A very common dream I get is that I can float, as in anti-gravity - all I have to do is concentrate, lean back and I can just float wherever I like - but if I lose concentration, the anti-gravity effect disappears. Those dreams are great because it's almost real, in places I know like my village, and I get them quite often!
