(please do not look at the picture until you have read all the words that precede it?)
i dreamed what should have been a nightmare, but since i was asleep and totally relaxed, i was mildly worried, but essentially apathetic to the situation.
i dreamed that i had woken up and found that i had sleep walked far from my home, and i was on rocky ground having lied down on my stomach on the rocks. i was too tired to open my eyes, and i thought i knew the direction back to my place to my bed, and so i started to crawl like a lizard over the rocks to get back to bed.
i felt like some force was pulling me backward, and so i had to exert quite a bit of effort to resist it and proceed forward. i crawled and crawled and crawled for what seemed like ages (in an abbreviated kind of dreamlike way), and then i found that the rocks seemed to fall away as if i was on the verge of a cliff.
but it seemed like i could crawl down this cliff without falling, and it seemed that when i started to crawl down the cliff, the force that was pulling me back disappeared. i still was too tired to open my eyes.
as i was crawling down the cliff (without gravity pulling me down), i suddenly felt that the rocks disappeared and i could go no further.
then, because i became worried about where i was, i opened my eyes to gauge the situation, and i found myself on the top of a butte in arizona like the one i have pointed at in this picture.
it then dawned on me that i was not crawling horizontally at the beginning of my journey back home. i realized i was climbing up the face of the butte, and the force pulling me backwards was in fact gravity.
i realized that when i got to the top, and crawled onto the horizontal surface, my mind equated that with crawling down a cliff face due to the fact that it was 90 degrees to my original orientation that i thought was horizontal, and then when i got to the other side of the top of the butte, i suddenly realized i had nowhere left to go, and that was what "woke me up" in the dream.
the main thrust of this dream was that i was now stranded on top of a narrow structure about 500 feet tall, and there was no way i could climb down in a wakeful state because i was terrified of the precipitous vertical decent, and i could not possibly have even begun to try.
even though i had a few square meters of space to sit on, i became extremely terrified (in an apathetic way because i was still actually asleep), and i knew that even if i screamed at the top of my lungs, no one would ever notice me up there, and i was doomed to die. it was not a good dream at all.
it was when i woke up (because the phone rang during the final part of my dream) that i freaked out at the thought of how it would feel if that actually did happen. |

Not really that weird, but quite stressful.
I used to have these dreams all the time. I dreamed I was at the place I used to work, and I had asked if there were any jobs available. And the person I asked, who used to be an old boss, said to come back later for an interview. So I spent hours wandering around this store, waiting for the interview and watching people I used to know working there. And she kept putting the interview time back. I was there all day, conscious that I was wearing the wrong clothes, and my hair needed washing, and watching people doing their jobs, and trying desperately to think of answers to interview questions. I never got to have the interview. |

I apparently made a kissing sound last night and told someone that I had missed them.
Wonder what all action I got last night in that dream.

I dreamed I was a mouse wandering around an enormous house looking for morsels of cheese.  No dragons, though. |

i dreamt i was in some strange mutated version of my last hospital workplace, which was built over a parking garage and goodwill store. i lived in one of the spare rooms next to the delivery suite [it was a labor and delivery ward], and my late mother lived behind a partition. in my dream i was there for several days. i would go to work, then i would explore the basement/parking garage which was divided between the parking areas and some unfinished recreation rooms crudely made out of concrete, and at the end there was a goodwill store that i could see from the other side. what caught my eye there were 6 old home organs, as organs are a passion of mine. before i could investigate them further, 2 black female employees there started catcalling me and taunting me for my effeminacy, which made me want to just go back upstairs and back to work, but not before one of 'em, a tall slender and beautifully statuesque specimen, came up to me and asked me why i wasn't in better shape, and i was so insulted by this impudent remark that i was rendered shocked and speechless. she went around the corner and came back with some kind of dayglow-colored plastic exercise machine and handed it to me and told me "please take this and use it for me, won't you?", then she placed it on the floor and hugged me, then she groped my butt, and, noticing that it was tautly muscled, said to me [with a surprised grin], "but you ARE in good shape, after all!" then she kissed me, handed me my exercise machine and bid me farewell as i went back upstairs to work. when i got off work several hours later, i went back to my room and found all six of those goodwill organs had been crowded into my room, and i played with each of them, but i noticed that the 6th organ had been transmuted somehow, into just a varnished wooden box with a tin plate atop it, this plate was emblazoned with the word "WINDOWS." then i awoke.  |

Mouse
To see a mouse in your dream indicates fear, meekness, insignificance and a lack of assertiveness. You are experiencing feelings of inadequacy and fears that you are not measuring up. The dream may be telling you that you are spending too much time hiding in the shadows of someone else. Alternatively, a mouse symbolizes minor irritations and annoyances. Perhaps you are letting petty problems or insignificant issues eat away at you. The dream may also be a pun on a computer mouse and your connection to work or to the virtual world.
Wander
To dream that you are wandering suggests that you are searching for some direction in your life. You are lacking motivation. Alternatively, the dream represents a transformation.
Cheese
To see cheese in your dream symbolizes gains and profits. Alternatively, the dream may be a metaphor for something that is "cheesy" or lame. Or it could be saying that you need to "step outside of the box" in terms of what motivates you in life, to aim your sights higher than immediate sustenance.
House
To see a house in your dream represents your own soul and self. Specific rooms in the house indicate a specific aspect of your psyche. In general, the attic represents your intellect, the basement represents the unconscious, etc. If the house is empty, then it indicates feelings of insecurity. If you live with others in your walking life, but dream that you are living alone suggests that you need to take new steps toward independence. You need to accept responsibilities and be more self-reliant. To dream that you are inside a stranger's house indicates that there is something that you have yet to discover about yourself. It may mean that there are repressed memories, fears or emotions that you are not confronting. |

i'll take a swag at it...
Bra
To dream that you are wearing a bra signifies support and protection. Perhaps you need to have your spirits uplifted. Alternatively, it may represent your nurturing side and maternal feelings.
Skiing
To dream that you are skiing suggests that you are pushing yourself and putting your mental and/or physical ability to the test. You are your own fiercest competitor.
To dream of wearing a Maidenform bra while skiing would hint that you are at play in the fields of the lord in your dream, where everything is restored to pure perfection, in the ultimate form of spiritual uplift. Alternately, you feel in your dream what you may like to feel in waking life, IOW in your dream you can put maximum effort into self-restoration. |

I wish I could be more specific with that dream, but I had taken a decent bit of diphenhydramine prior to having it. 
I'm surprised you could get all of that from just the details I remembered, though. Cool.

I remember parts of my dream last night.
I got a plate of food from a table they were serving it on, brought it back to my table, went and did something, and when I came back this girl had thrown it away. I was mad at her.
That same girl's brother was hoping I'd be that girl's boyfriend so she would have "protection".
I think I was in school and some jerks were bullying me until one got in trouble and sent out of the room. I remember hearing them say my name and one made someone put a diaper on him and then he wanted to sit in my lap.
Someone made a comment about not wanting a gay guy in their shower room. I'm pretty sure I was the gay guy they were talking about. |
