So last night I took an allergy pill (Zirtec D) right before bed, first time this season I've used it in the evenings. Holy crap was I restless all night! I dreamed most of the night about my car- figidy kind of dreaming. It was all there in detail- removed the complete interior, swapped in a red+black sport one. Removed all 4 wheels, upgraded the suspensionall around. Pulled the motor, bored it out, put on a turbo kit. It was badass!  Now mind you this is compete smack because I don't know how to do any of this crap! Yet I was doing it in detail in my dream. I think I've been reading these boards so long I've reinvented my past experiences! Last time I dreamed about my ti I was obsessed with getting 17" round spoke wheels from a Z3 and just missed winning an ebay auction. __________________

 I had a dream a few weeks ago about getting into a bad traffic accident. No personal injuries or anything but my car was fubar and I woke up pretty mad.  __________________

Now that you mention it, I did have a dream about the car last week. I came outside, and the car was halfway in the street. Snow had been plowed around it, preventing it from rolling any farther into the street. I went to start the car and it started spitting oil and making horrible noises. I open the hood and the entire drivetrain was missing. Everything was stripped out of the car. I thought, "I'm glad I bought those wheel locks, that saved them from being stolen". Thinking back, how could the engine have even turned over, if it didn't have an engine in it.  Dream sometimes make no sense. The best ones are the ones you can rationalize your way out of.

i think i have the WEIRDEST dreams EVER, though they dont involve my car...
couple nights ago i had a dream that i was stuck in the story 'tom and huck' except i was at nc state instead of wherever the story really took place. it was weird...engine/injun joe was after me and stabbed me with a spear in my left eye, but i was still alright...it was so real too...and the whole time while i was asleep, i thought i was really sprinting around campus hiding from injun joe...then all of a sudden it was time to move out, so my mom came to pick me up and i had a spear stuck in my eye...i was like 'mom we have to get out of here now...injun joe is chasing after me and trying to kill me!' and she replied 'nonsense rob you are being silly...lets take our time, id like to check out the campus a little bit!' so then i was trying to hide myself from injun joe, but joe wasnt after my mom, just me...it was soo weird...
im not even going to get started on the dream about the army of finish hamsters that tried to recruit me for their 'army of spirit' to take over the whole world, which ended with me running through the mall and hididng in a cheese shop... __________________ 1995 318ti Active
