There Is No Doubt Now

Have any of you ever had a dream where 3 characters from a book you are reading are trapped on an island 40 yards from a golf course and a bridge for 20 days? They couldn't get off the island due to shark infested waters surrounding it and people on the golf course thought they were kidding while calling for help, one even hitting golf balls at them for sport? And can't forget good ol' David Hasselhoff comin to the rescue by blowing up the bridge and then making you climb up a chain and balance the beams of the now(pefectly) sideways bridge back to land?

Now, I do not analyze dreams and would not even begin to try to break this one down. I know why DH was there, because well, "Everthing is better with a little Hasselhoff." and one of the charaters spoke German(at least in my dream). The Steph gets credit for the Hasselhoff quote and that conversation led to 4 sitings in 5 days quite a while ago. I still shudder at the timing. Anyway, there was another actor playing the golfball hitting fucktard, but, I can't place his face or even remember a movie he was in so for those of you who might analyze this, I am sorry, I know that infomation could only help. As for the shark infested water, I think blogging is finally having an effect on my mind's nocturnal activities, I blame Dani for reminding me of my fear of water(watching Jaws when I was way too young). I have absolutely, no clue, as to where the bridge and golf course fit in.

crap- hang on- let me make sure i can get this quote right- it's from my favorite movie......

Was it a dream where you see yourself in, sort of, Sun God robes, on a pyramid, with a thousand naked women screaming and throwing little pickles at you?

No.

Why am I the only person that has that dream?

actually, my dreams are usually pretty dirty.....except for the weird one i had about snakes earlier this week.

Blogger Larry said...

Real Genius-Chris Knight(played by Val Kilmer) you won't slip a quote from that movie by me.

I get the point, though. So far I am still the only person who has had this dream.

9:16 AM  
Blogger Larry said...

Yeah, I won't post about the dirty ones myself.

9:16 AM  
Blogger duff said...

that wasn't the point- it's just my favorite movie quote about a dream.

though i can honestly say i have never dreamt about david hasselhoff. that's just weird.

perhaps it had to do with your deep-seeded desire to be a baywatch babe.

so you don't subscribe to that male fantasy of sitting around all day groping your breasts constantly?

I never said that.

i don't think i've laughed this hard in a while.

i'll try to return the favor sometime.

Don't worry, there are plenty of times you already do.

how do you figure?

10:17 AM  
Blogger Larry said...

Am I going to have to go back and document certain instances of laughter?

Okay then. One that comes to mind is you arguing with 20Q on Kal's blog, another is LEGO Thriller, how about, Mr. T the duck.

All made me laugh out loud, with many other incidences I don't have the ability to remember right now.

10:28 AM  
Blogger Larry said...

Luke, I am NOT your father.

10:32 AM  
Blogger duff said...

i didn't create lego thriller, so i can't take credit for that one.

the mr. t. duck....well, that was a gift about this time last year. i don't know that i can take credit for that one either- just for being dorky enough to actually admit to owning one.

and 20q was wrong, plain and simple.

10:40 AM  
Blogger Larry said...

LOL. Take credit for bringing them to my attention then. And machines feel no remorse.

10:48 AM  
Blogger duff said...

remorseful or not, it was still wrong.

lucky for you, i have plenty of time today to bring things to your attention.

(if you think i'm bored now, just wait until the truck races start! yee-HAW!)

i mean, not that i have to be bored to stalk your blog.....

Right, right. I understand.

ok- take it the wrong way.

how can i make it up to you?

11:21 AM

See now you are just toying with me. You should never ask that question. Always, just, "I'm sorry."

Remember that advise. It will save you one day.

i know, but sometimes i like to toy with you......as if i'm the cat and you are the fuzzy mouse with little plastic eyes.

Covered in catnip and having a rattling sound when shakin.

oooh! it just gets better and better, doesn't it?

11:44 AM

Of course. I wouldn't let it get worse.

You know I would almost suggest IMing but than no one else would be able to get in their digs later.

*shrugs* it's up to you. i'm here for a while without anything i have to do either way

12:03 PM  
Blogger Larry said...

Yeah I would say we should except my dayoff plans just became concrete. I will be heading out in about 30 minutes.

12:05 PM  
Blogger duff said...

fine. be that way. leave me stranded here with nothing to do but listen to men driving in circles.

i'm afraid nascar is another one of those southern things i just don't understand.

12:09 PM  
Blogger Larry said...

Yeah I had a woman at the Philly-St. Louis game I went to in Philly asked that since I was from st. louis wasn't nascar big there. She was not a fan and was merely pointing out that a nextel driver I can't remember was driving around the ballpark on a four wheeler and evertone was ignoring him. I was like, "Shit woman, just cuz, I'm from st. louis doesn't make me a redneck. Are you calling me a redneck?" I was of course joking and she kinda freaked and started appologizing profusely. Damn I don't know a thing about nascar except that there are at least 3 tracks close enough for philly dwellers to drive to without overnighting it and none here. enough said.

12:15 PM  
Blogger duff said...

you could drive across the state- they have a track in kansas city.

12:16 PM  
Blogger Larry said...

Yes, but that would be too much effort for something I don't care about. But, rumor has it they may be getting a hockey team and as of right now my older brother lives in Prairie Village, KS, so it wouldn't be a total waste.

for some reason, i thought you were the oldest......

12:25 PM  
Blogger Larry said...

Actually the Steph is my step sis and is about a month and more older and also the older bro who doesn't do this blog thing and a younger step bro who also doesn't do the blog thing.

12:27 PM  
Blogger duff said...

aha! i thought steph was a sibling...though the possibility of best friend also crossed my mind. (one of those platonic gal pals guys keep around to try to understand the opposite sex.)

and then there's the younger bro who seems a little jealous that i tease you and not him......

12:31 PM  
Blogger Larry said...

Yeah she is also a friend. we have a lot of the same friends

12:34 PM  
Blogger duff said...

was she a sister first or a friend first?

i hear from one out of three stepsiblings at christmas....and that's about it.

12:40 PM  
Blogger Larry said...

sister first. Friends after we both moved out and we share friends that we mainly made as adults with a few old neighborhood friends thrown in. I make it a habit to keep in touch with all my siblings. A couple of them I would not hear from if I didn't. Hell, I have my older brother calling me which is a miracle of sorts

Hey Larry,
I'd be happy to interpet that dream for you: the bridge represents a way out that you really can't take. If you want more meaningless psyco-babble about it, I'm just an email away.

8:09 PM  
Blogger Nickelplate said...

Ahem! Psych Major here! ask me larry! or ask that other person if u wanna. Whichever one...

11:19 PM  
Blogger Larry said...

Well, hold on, major v. professional. Brad you lose brother.

11:24 PM  
Blogger Callie said...

Or, you could just look this stuff up on the internet, and figure it out yourself.

Here is what I found out:

Bridge
To dream that you are crossing a bridge, signifies an important decision or a critical junction in your life. This decision will prove to be a positive change with prosperity and wealth in the horizon. Bridges represent a transitional period in your life where you will be moving on to a new stage.

To dream of a run-down bridge, indicates that you should not contemplate any major changes in your life at this time.

To see a bridge collapse in your dream, denotes that you have let a great opportunity pass you by.

Shark

To see a shark in your dream, represents a person whom you see as greedy and unscrupulous. This person goes after what what he or she wants with no regards to the well-being and sensitivity of others. The shark may also be an aspect of your own personality which exhibit these qualities. Alternatively, you may be going through a difficult, painful, or unpleasant emotional period. The shark symbolizes feelings of anger, hostility, and fierceness. You may be an emotional threat to yourself or to others

Golf
To dream that you are playing or watching golf, signifies pleasant indulgences. It may also indicate that you are idling and wasting time.

Stars
To see stars in your dream, signifies your desire for fame and fortune. Stars also symbolize fate and luck.

Escape
To dream that you escape from jail or some place of confinement, signifies your need to escape from a restrictive situation or attitude. On the other hand, it may mean that you are taking an escapist attitude and are refusing to face up to problems that are not going away.

To dream that you escape from injury, from an animal, or from any situation, signifies your good health and prosperity. You will experience a favorable turn of events


So, in my estimation, you dreamt about the situation with the ex (the shark), and how you are now at a juncture in your life (the bridge), and that you want to become prosperous (DH - although why you dreamt DH is still beyond me), and this blog is your golf. The escape over the bridge could be seen as your way out. It's dangerous, but it will lead you where you want to go.

That'll be $200 please.

wow, probably not that far off, but she does charge more than me:-)

brad: i was a psych major, too.....but i still would have had to look that stuff up. i have a copy of freud's "interpretation of dreams", but i can't say it's ever been at the top of my reading list.

7:14 AM  
Blogger Erika said...

that book scares me

7:21 AM  
Blogger Callie said...

All I could ever figure out about Freud was that everything was linked somehow to sex.

I think I like that philosophy.

And I charge so much because I live in California. Everything's inflated out here - including our egos.

:-D

9:29 AM  
Blogger Larry said...

Thanks callie, the check is in the mail(you probably won't get it for a while cause all I had to go by was callie and california so it could take the postal service a bit) and for the record, DH was in the dream to make it better. See quote in above comment.

Erika, so what you are saying is momma's boys scare you?

Duff, So you are a babysitting, childcare teacher, radio dj, armchair psychologist? I am a guy and I don't even own that many hats.

11:42 AM  
Blogger duff said...

psychology was one of my majors- i tripled.

the degree got me a job at the preschool. i didn't really pay enough attention in my psychology/sociology classes to be an armchair psychologist....though i suppose i have a decent enough intuition with these sorts of things.

Golf: you're still frightened of golf clubs after being smacked upside the head with one when you were 6.

Oh, wait, that's me.

David Hasselhoff: You're fascinated with his music career and only wish you could be as much of a rockstar.

Wait, that's me again.

Shark Infested H20: Your hate for the HUMMER 2 has you associating certain death with anything....No, no, that's me again.

Dammit. It's not even my dream!

DH is a god among men.

As your friend, I have taken sometime to pour over your dream and have done a little interpretation myself.

In Short: YOU'RE GAY.

Doug: You wish

Larry,
yes nothing scares me more than a momma's boy, but that may all go back to my defunked relationship with my mother, which would have taken so much therapy, it was just easier to become a therapist.

I got nothin'. Took me 20 minutes to read the comments and I got bupkis.

unfortunately we should have probably IMed the conversation so you wouldn't have wasted your time. But, what is reading my blog really but a big waste of time anyway.

Larry: the interpretation of these images was surprisingly simple:

Stop eating cheese before bedtime

Well, that, and you have unrequited lust for David Hasselhoff.

7:56 PM  
Blogger Penny said...

I didn't mean it was a waste of time. I enjoyed every second. It's just that usually I can read comments and come up with something (somewhat) witty to say. But it'd all be said. LOL. I had nothing funny to say.

*I* suck, not *you* suck!

so speechless for a third time then.

Mossy, I am going to have to start charging for this.

6:17 AM  
Blogger Penny said...

Best advice/old wives tale my mother gave me and I passed along to Mossy.

Eating cheese before bed will give you nightmares.

Mossy thought it was B.S. until he found out that it's right on the money.

7:40 AM

But, I love cheese almost as much as I love Hasslehoff

And what a deadly mixture they are.

By the way, why are you just sending comments and not blogging? :o(
