Oh My God! Here I go again! Another dream with Kaede, they keep on coming up...which is good for me...I guess! Anyways, in this dream, one of my old friends named Patrick came by to see where I was living (of course at this time I am living with Kaede), Patrick only made rude remarks about the place and I felt like I was going to give him the biggest punch yet. During dinner, he was invited to stay as a guest but, again he was being rude, saying that Kaede could do better...I showed him, by slamming my left foot down on his right foot and making him jump. It's not like, he was better off after that, the three of us were in the living room, but he was saying that I wasn't the type of person Kaede should be with. Next was the worst part, he insulted Kaede by calling her a reject. He went too far with that one, so instead of punching him on the head, I kicked him out of the house. After he was gone, I went back into the living room and cheered Kaede up by saying that she is special in her own way and that Patrick of course has a big mouth that goes far (to be honest in real life, that is true, he does have a big mouth). Kaede hugged me again after I said those kind words, I was just glad I could cheer her up, so after the hugging, we sat down on the couch and watched some "Home Improvement". I woke up twenty minutes before the clock went off.

The main reason I didn't put in anything for yesterday about my dreams, was because I never slept, during that time, I was up All Night.
Last night however, I had a good night's sleep, as a result, I had another amazing dream about Kaede.
Just by looking up into the clouds, you could tell that snow was coming and it did, the very next day. I was putting on my winter gear, that was before I tripped over my own boats and fell flat onto my butt. Kaede came running in all worried, I told her that I was fine, I didn't break anything. She and Primula offered to help me clear the sidewalks but, I told them that I could handle the job alone, they should stay inside to stay warm.
I spent all morning, clearing the sidewalk, then I went back inside, Kaede and Primula were out getting food and supplies, cause there have been reports about a huge storm coming in real soon. On the table, I could see that Kaede had made me some Hot Chocolate.
That night, we spent our time working on paper snowflakes, Kaede said she used to do this all the time, before a blizzard, I did have to admit it was a lot of fun and of course we had our music playing in the background, I could hear Primula hum along to "Thomas, You're the Leader", whenever we were listening to it. After making the sunflakes, we placed them into a nice little pile, saying that we are going to put them up around christmas time, then we went into the living room to check on the weather report, they were indeed saying that a snowstorm was coming in, that very night. So we waited for the storm to come, even when it did come, we were didn't even notice for we just watched movies none stop. Of course, I sat in between Kaede and Primula, while we were watching the movie, they actually fell asleep ten minutes after the movie began, I wrapped them in blankets to keep them warm, then continued watching the movie with them.
I woke up ten minutes before the darn clock went off again.

Well Matthew, I can tell you this much about your dreams, due to the fact that I have a (limited) knowledge of psychology.
From what I know, recurring dreams are the product of obsessions or Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Once, after a particularly poor week of school, I kept dreaming over and over that I failed, and subsequently expelled. I know that I was nervous about my grades and was downright obsessing over them, so they never left my mind, even in sleep.
It sounds to me like you may have a thing for this character (Which is nothing to be ashamed of by the way, many people have a similar issue although they won't admit it) and she's currently dominating your thoughts. I'd advise trying to empty your mind before bed. (Only if you want them to stop of course)
Now, onto my dream. I dreamt that I was on a cruise ship, playing card games with some guy I didn't even know, and throwing cats into the churning ocean (This is more of a nightmare, as I'm a great cat lover) and suddenly, Vile from Megaman X (?) showed up, and tried to kill everyone just as the storm got worse. I tried to find my cat as the ship started to sink, but I couldn't find her. Fearing that she was thrown into the ocean, I started to panic, but then a fat, jolly guy showed me that she was hiding under a lifeboat. I somehow managed to escape, and heard that Vile was destroyed by a point blank canon shot.
Yeesh, I should probably cut down on eating before bed.

Okay, here's another dream from last night, and of course you can guess who was with me. This time, after I had watched some "Home Improvement" episodes from season 2, I went to bed and this is what happened in the dream... A stupid woodpecker was out on the roof, pecking away, I was doing everything I could to get it off the roof. Kaede told me not to hurt it, I promised I wouldn't, just getting it off the roof. All day long, I spent most of time, trying to shoo it off the roof, then finally I scared it off with some music from Linkin Park. After that, I spent the remaining part of the night with Kaede. She was in the living room, looking a little lonely, I knew on how I could cheer her up...we both walked outside and to our surprise...there were fireflies buzzing around us. Kaede thought that they were so beautiful, I had to agree with her. As we watched them, Kaede kissed me on the left side of my face, then I kissed her on the right side of her face, as we continued to watch the fireflies. My dream ended just thirty seconds before my darn clock went off again.

My dream last night consisted of me building a scale model of a red traction engine in my back garden, which suddenly turned into a full-size one, and I went for a jolly steam around the countryside at night with the cast of the Titfield Thunderbolt.
Enough Relentless Inferno before I go to bed methinks

Had a rather fascinating dream the other night. In it, the Virginia Museum of Transportation had received a large amount of money, and this money went into putting the Norfolk and Western engine #611 back into service. I was able to travel on one of its trains, too! All I can say is that it's probably just wishful thinking...

I had quite an interesting dream two nights ago, I dreamt I was commentating the Austrailian Grand Prix of 2006 with Murray Walker.
Murray would get into his motion when something is about to happen but doesn't, but when Jenson Button (who was in the race) went off the circuit with Suspension failure I was the one who got into the motion just like Murray Walker would have.
Then I woke up, and all I was thinking about was Megan Fox (probably because I was doing some quiz's on Facebook regarding Girls and Megan Fox happened to me mention).

I had a rather strange dream about two days ago, i always seem to dream when the sun comes up, lets say 6:00am.
I don't know if many people know this but I have a great fear of Quicksand, Peat bogs and marshlands, i hate the thought of the ground opening and swallowing me or being buired alive. It'll be the same thing in death, when my spirital body leaves the physical, I want my body to be ( i cant spell the word so) burned to ashes, absortutly not buired.
so of course a dream where i sink into quicksand is my worst nightmare, happened frequently when i was 6-7 years old = it is bad enough now in the present day, that i know from scentific experiments and mythbusters that to sink completly out of sight in quicksand is a physical impossiblity ( it pretty much upsets the balence of phsics ) i'm sure we've all watched a western or hollywood movie where the villan dies or hero is saved, the truth is, the movies lied to all of us.
in the dream, i was back in school, the class and myself and teacher were walking out on the river severn estuary, then my teacher suddenly ordered everone to run back to shore as fast as we could, we did and as we were i felt myself plunge, i had to put my other foot into this gunge, something similar to a moldy rice puding and quickly sank til i was litery sitting on it and stopped.
others tried to pull me out, but in reality my body weight would've compressed the water out of the mixture turning it into a solid, (fact, pulling a leg out is equal to trying to lift a family car and result in a broken body)
i asked them to throw me a pole so i could support myself on it, and ordered the others to get to shore before the tide came in, with slow- time comsuming excersides, i managed to reintroduce the water to the quicksand and pulled myself out.
then came the next problem, i was about a mile to land on one side, and probily 3 miles on the right side and today was the day of the severn bore ( for those that don't know, it's a tide that creaps up the river and when it reaches the funnel mouth of the river it turns into any other ordinary sea wave, but flows for some 38 miles, ive done the reserch) near me i saw the half buired body of a deseaced surfer still holding on to his surfboard.
so you can guess what happened, i grabbed the surfboard and rode the severn bore (i know, crazy right, i have random dreams). rode it with other surfers further up the river, won a guiness book of records for longest ride on wave, ended up in quicksand again= tar like mud instead of sand and on my side, a night past and i was finally pulled out in what looked like early morning.
brrrrr!, i hate these dreams.

Okay now, I finally had a different dream, this time about trains!
In this dream, the Flying Scotsman and Tornado were in Toronto, Ontario Canada, planning on running a doubleheader run along the main lines of Canadian Pacific. I was there of course to film the entire ordeal and get some pictures. Flying Scotsman had a british flag and canadian flag on the front of it's boiler, when Tornado was painted in the LNER paint scheme and also had the two flags on the front.
I was not ready the train, instead I was following along in my truck and trying to get some good shots of the train as it roared right by me. People came by the dozens to see the two engines, especially Tornado (seeing how she's new), it was hard trying to get good shots.
As the train rolled on down the tracks, the sound of the whistles could be heard echoing threw the valleys, the classic chugging sounds as the engines rolled on, it was amazing. The coaches the engines were pulling were old fashioned english styled coaches as well as some of the old CP and CN coaches at the end of the train.
The train finally stopped in London Ontario, where the two were uncoupled from the train then returned for the return journey, they had turned around on the "Y" and now the CP and CN coaches were on the front, it wasn't really a pretty sight, having those coaches on the front but, still it didn't matter as the two engines ran on perfectly all the way back to Toronto's Union Station.
When the engines arrived, the group "Lifehouse" was playing, their song "Hanging by a Moment", just as they had finished the two engines blew their whistles off as they rolled on down the tracks for the CP yards.
My darn clock woke me up just as the engines were leaving. Again to Ryan, I am sorry for posting those Shuffle dreams none stop, at least this dream was something different.

Here is my latest dream, which is kind of an early birthday wish:
It was my birthday (which is in 3 weeks), I was having a party at my flat and I can't remember who I'd invited but the Girl who I first liked in school was there. I was like 'what the hell', and all she was doing was moaning about me so I decided to argue back at her and see how she liked it and I'm pretty sure she didn't like it at all.
Later on, more Girls who I liked came along with some friends of mine also. The party was taking place outside the entrance to my flat, which is probably the last place to hold a party. Anyway, this Girl who I'd been chatting for over a year on myspace (whose from the USA) then came too and I was really pleased to see her. Next thing you know, my underneath neighbour (who plays music at like 3am when everyone is trying to sleep, and sometimes shouts alot when arguing). starts being horrible to her so I told him to leave her alone because she'd done nothing to him. She then got really upset, so I decided to comfort her and she was happy that someone cared about her. Then I fell in love with her, man what a present to have. I don't know what happened next because I got woken up by the buzzer which turned out to be the Postman.
What a dream, and I hope someday to meet this Girl but having her at my birthday party this year is certainly out of the question. But who knows what I'm doing on my birthday, I know I'll have Film School the next day.

Last night, I had a really crazy dream...I was dreaming that I was a country music star.
I was in a group, (I don't remember the name of the group), the only kind of songs, my group and I sang were love songs. I remember that we were playing on the stage, live! As the lead singer, I sang out loud to all the crowds, it seemed to me that people loved me as I played out loud.
That dream lasted throughout the night, and into the morning.
Saturday's dream however...
In that dream, I was a police officer, and the next thing I knew, I was in the fight of my life, trying to stop some bad guys from robbing a bank. They were firing at me, and I was firing back at them, I was completely outnumbered, fifteen to one, that was until backup arrived and at last, the bank robbers were taken down and taken away to jail. After that, came a high speed chase, chasing down some escaping criminals...I did stop them, by ramming my car into their's and running it off the road, I arrested them both and took them to jail.
(Maybe, I shouldn't watch America's Most Wanted, before going to bed, cause half the time, I was freaked out).
Anyways, those are my two dreams, I wanted to tell you about and of course, they were interupted by the alarm clock on dresser.

I had a dream I was wondering in a sort of desert setting and found this sort of surreal mix of a rail yard. Looking under a sort of large open shed I found several forlorn looking steam locomotives rusting away. Yes they were talking trains and after hearing their story of neglect and oppression oddly enough I vowed to free them. Utilizing an ability to turn into animals (Guess I love the old Animorphs series to much because this is a common superpower in my dreams). I clearly remember turning into a Bald Eagle, a Horse, a Leopard, and a Reticulated Python. I spent the rest of the dream spying and fighter with the owners to free them. Naturally I woke up before a resolution came.

I wanted to mention this after the night I had it, but I'd been so busy and was tired that I never came round to it. So I'm going to tell it now.
A few nights ago I dreamt I went to a Michael Jackson concert, I don't know why I went but I found out DragonForce were the support act (so I guess there's the reason). Anyway, I met some friends from school who'd gone to see Michael Jackson.
So when we got to the seats to watch DragonForce, one of the guys I'd know since 1996 tells me to go to the shed. (just to let you know, he was referring to a shed at my flat). I said to him that I'd came all the way up to central London to see DragonForce and said by the time I'd get home I'll probably be in bed. but he still said go to the shed and I'll meet you there (whatever for I've no idea, I guess we were dealing with something that was illegal). But I was still determined to see DragonForce, so he says alright but go after DragonForce.
Next thing I remember DragonForce playing, I don't remember them starting or ending but soon I woke-up and it was still the middle of the night. My arms were cold, and I'd no idea what the whole thing of the shed was all about but it seemed so real (then again, dreams usually do).

My dream last night featured me chasing a steam triple header on the Canadian Pacific line in the B.C. area. I was driving on the road and watching the train roll along beside me. The engines on the front were 'Canadian Pacific-2816', 'Canadian Pacific-2317' and 'Royal Hudson-2860', all three engines were once part of the Canadian Pacific. Anyways, continuing with the dream, I was a film producer and I was filming the train's run. It was a wonderful sight to see, but just as the train reached the station I had to get up.

Had a really weird dream the other night:
There was a comic book series about a super hero group known as the "Steam Super Squad". There were 5 heroes; the leader was a guy who could manipulate fire, the second a lady who could manipulate water, the third was a mechanic with a steampunk robot arm, the fourth was a "guard" who healed the rest of the group and predicted enemy attacks, and the fifth was a female version of Thomas which ran on roads and could carry the other four. Weirdly, they were all black-and-white.
And then one day, they're taken from the comic book world into the real world in some city in New Mexico in the early 1980s, but they still look illustrated. While they try to find a way home, they promise to help the people of the city. The first criminal they have to deal with is a teen punk named Breen, who mugs people and deals illegal substances. They eventually corner him in his apartment, and they convince him to turn his life around and go back to college.
It flashes forward to over 20 years later when he's the Administrator of a research facility in the Mojave Desert. One day while opening a new nuclear power plant for a small town, there's a sudden explosion, and a whole bunch of aliens appear and start taking over the world.
In short, I had a dream involving Thomas the Tank Engine, the Fantastic Four, and Half-Life.
What.

I dreamt of a alternative scene from Attack of the Clones.
Anakin and Padme were walking through this beautiful park, there were droids and people in the background and some few attractions also. There also seemed to be a background of London there too, I didn't think it was naboo so I decided it was Alderaan. While all this was going, Bail Organa was holding a briefing in the tower in London (the kind of curved one but can't remember what it's called) regarding something but I don't know what but he mentioned London. I think Obi-Wan was there with him but I wasn't too sure.
Further on, there was some Guy dressed in UK British Rail outfit telling these people the story of how he and his brother encountered Stormtroopers. He seemed to talk of his Brother's murder or something, but not too far from him were the platforms of Richmond station where the District line and Overground trains usually terminate. I remember there were two District line trains, and then a Double-Decker bus comes into platform three (on the rails of course, so I decided it was a tram).
I don't know what happened next, when of course... (you guessed it)... I woke up. I did have a Star Wars dream last weekend involving Darth Vader, but I can't remember much about apart from that he met Obi-Wan (Alec Guinness' Obi-Wan) on Tatooine during the peroid between Episode 3 and Episode 4.

Sorry to double post, but I wanted to say about the dream I had the night before (I couldn't do all day as I went to Swindon to see my Great Auntie, had a lovely day though).
Anyway, I had like 3 dreams all in one go. First, it's the battle of hoth from the Empire Strikes Back. I'm part of the Rebel alliance fighting the Empire invasion, the format was that of Battlefront 1 and the whole landscape was very much the same as that. Anyway, myself an a couple of other soldiers went back into Echo Base to begin a retreat from the losing battle.
Then... as we ran further into the control room, I then find myself down a road near to where I live (more or less near my old Infant and Junior school) and I'm part of an SiF meeting with a couple of well known faces, the ones I could remember were: Ryan, Chris the Xelent, and Christopher, but I can't remember who else was there. I remember walking passed several houses along near where I live, and I was walking with Ryan who was telling me all the places he'd like to go for future SiF meetings. I happened to mention Beckonscot Model Village, and he said something like: 'I don't think they'd be much interest in going there.' Then I happened to say something like, maybe Knuckles might like it for ideas for his layout.
Anyway, we got a bit further on towards my local library. When the SiF members, turned into the Six Members of Iron Maiden (I have no idea how that worked out). All I can remember was that I was walking along with Iron Maiden's longest guitarist member, Dave Murray (who's of course my favourite member of Iron Maiden) and we were just talking about their upcoming album. But he was very quiet, one of the other guitarist, Janick Gers, did a fair bit of talking about that. One thing I remember during the parts with the SiF members and Iron Maiden, was that Iron Maiden's song: the Clansman (which is about the Clansman of Scotland, great song) was playing through my mind the whole time and even when I woke-up (Mmm... maybe I might make a Thomas music video about Donald and Douglas with that song, but I'm bothered I won't have enough footage to use because the song's about 9mins or so long).
Then all of course, my clock went off and I had to get up (but I can't remember if I was already awake before my clock went off). I've got Star Wars on my mind recently, and I pre-ordered Iron Maiden's new album last night (but I've no idea where the SiF members came about, Bekconscot being mentioned keeps telling me something to start a thread of a possible SiF meeting there but I don't want start a thread of it and waste my time that's the problem).

This morning I had an interesting dream involving a ride on a chute on the top floor of a block of flats.
Firstly I was with a couple of friends from a course I visited last month and we were waiting for a lift to carry us down. When we boarded it, the lift began to move horizontally and it turned into a crazy yellow slide.
During the ride I noticed four colour coded hoops that looked like the entrances to a cheesy 90s game show and we decided to go through one of them. This slide was more reckless compared to the yellow one and it turned into a swirl (similar to a Monkey Ball level) and it twisted over a lava pit, in which we enjoyed it so much that we decided to use it again.
On the second try I fell off the slide and found myself hanging over the pool of lava but managed to find myself back on the slide. And finally before we finished, I asked my friends if they remembered the short lived 90s quiz show 'Mind the Gap' in which they both instantly replied before waking up.
