Poll of the Day > Had a weird dream. What does it mean?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Last night I had a few (8) drinks, went to bed at around 2am

Had a dream I was wandering my house. I drank a can of rootbeer and ate some chips. Then I had another can of rootbeer but this time there were herbs and food chunks, kinda like salsa. The can said "relax beer" instead of rootbeer. Then my old boss from my first job was sitting on my porch and she said "you're well rested...but still hungry!"

Then I woke up and it was about 545. I felt really energetic and not hungover at all. Still feeling good an hour later

What gives? I got a new bed last week...is it really making that big of a difference?

Dreams are just your brain's defrag.

It means you need to drink less and go to bed at a decent hour.

Came in to literally say this.

Pretty much every dream interpretation book or guide you've ever seen is basically bullshit. Dreams are just your brain sorting through random chunks of memory and images and shuffling them up like a deck of cards. There's no unconscious or subconscious meaning to it, no deep-seated presence or hidden awareness feeding you secret messages.

At most, if you dream something that seems meaningful, it's because you're more likely to dream about things that you think about a lot or that were vividly in your awareness that day. But it can just as easily be something you haven't thought of for a long time, because dreams can dredge crap out of the nooks and crannies as well. Most of the meaning people try and read into dreams is just apophenia.

It's also worth noting that you have tons of dreams in a given night - you only remember the ones that happen right before you wake up, that are still in your mind when your consciousness kicks back in. Because for the most part, our ability to retain memories is shut off while we're sleeping, so any dream you have where you don't wake up is almost immediately forgotten right afterwards.
