My dream.

But I don't have night-terrors. My mom does, though, lemme tell ya. I know it's scarier for the terror-haver, but it's scary for others in the house, too. My experience consists merely of dreams of REM-level detail seconds after I fall asleep.

Egg-zactly. That's why when I started having them again when Will was about 18 months old and they were scaring the daylights out of him, too (Mom screaming her lungs out in the middle of the night will do that to a kid), I was so relieved when the South Beach sty-lee eating plan seemed to have nipped that outbreak in the bud, I haven't strayed too far from it since. My cholesterol levels are those of athletes', too, or so says my doctor. And that's saying a lot for someone whose LDL used to be 137 pre-diet and is now in the low 90s. And trust me, I ain't no athlete. :P
Sorry to hear your Mom has them. If she's so inclined, you might suggest to her to cut out the processed sugars and white starches, or at least cut significantly back on them. They haven't determined the trigger(s) yet last I looked into it, but I'd bet anything one of them is sugar.

So... the last thing I did in my fun, smart couch-sit with Jake Gyllenhaal (back in the dream) was to go get my tiny sheep and show them to him. I don't know if the subject had come up somehow, or how I remembered that I had something sheep-related that I could possibly show him. But I did. His response to my two little sheep: he was deeply moved by them, unto TEARS. It was actually kind of uncomfortable for me. Of course I was absolutely thrilled that I had connected with him somehow. But we were suddenly much more intimate than I had expected. He thanked me heartily, profusely, for sharing my sheep.
He didn't put his head in my lap, though.

Maybe it's a good thing Nicole Tremblay isn't around here too much, Stacey!!!
I want to see them - the little sheep and the tiny kitty and the wobbly Joseph...I want to see them all. I've played around with FIMO, but have no talent for creating anything from it but a mess.
I have very lucid dreams. CT posts are in my dreams much more than Jack and Ennis. My least favorite dreams are either when my teeth are all loose and falling out left and right (I have very healthy teeth in real life), or when I'm eating broken glass. You can imagine that both are deeply disturbing.
They are both supposed to represent some regret about words spoken, but I never actually feel that, so it must be about something else, but I don't know what. Let me tell ya - broken glass shards slicing into your gums and cutting the soft insides of your mouth is NOT a fun dream!

In my psych class last semester my teacher said something about how it's very common for college students to have dreams about teeth falling out. I can't remember for the life of me what she said it was supposed to mean, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't regret about words spoken...

Ooh - I reckon that wouldn't be any fun at all, Celeste! I've not had that one but I've had the loose teeth one *many* times. They never actually fall out in my case, but they get precariously loose. And has anyone else ever heard the urban legend that if you're falling in a dream, if you hit the ground, you die? For real? I've heard that. And it's false. Because I've hit the ground a few times. Hard. Didn't feel pain so much as pressure, and got up and carried on in the dream.
I have the thing I have for Ralph Fiennes partially because one day a long time ago I was reading an interview of him in GQ in a dentist's office, and one of the interviewer's questions was "Do you ever have recurring nightmares?" He answered that no, he has not, but that he has night terrors. He didn't call them that at the time - this interview was from, like, 1997, and it may not have been in the vernacular then. But he described the version of them I was having at the time in stunning detail. I felt the hair stand up on my neck as I was reading it. And I really was stunned because I had never talked about them with anyone except my mother and husband up to that point and I'd certainly never heard of anyone who had them.
