This was weird

I dreamed about riding the bus over and over 2 nights ago.

I woke up wondering why in the world I would dream about that all night. :confused:

So I turned on the radio station, and guess what they were talking about?

Yep. Buses and other mass transit issues. :rolleyes:

It was really weird.

Anyone else ever dream about something and then it came up that day?

    Yeah I often dream (or think) about movies and then I see them on TV.
    At first I thought I must have seen them in the TV guide and forget about them but it's been happening for years and with so much regularity that it's just strange.

    You'd think that I'd be able to do something useful with my special powers like healing the sick ... But no ... No ... I get to be a blooming psychic television guide.

        because it ends up being incorporated into my half sleep/half awake mind. I could be having a nice dream about making bazillions on the internet, and on the tv will be a rerun of happy gilmore, so now im having a nice dream about making bazillions on the internet, with adam sandler, and then the commercial breaks on and im still making bazillions with adam, but now were both running through a field, and feeling very springtime fresh while we're making bazillions.

          Except the TV wasn't on when Shay was sleeping.

            Right. No tv.

            It was on the radio in the car - no chance of influencing my dreams.

              No I believe you Shay.

              Like I said many people have experiences like that and unless they're a deep thinker (or whatever) they brush it off as a coincindence.

              As people we don't always like thinking about stuff we don't understand. Most people don't like exploring this kind of thing because they like to live in a World where everything makes sense to them.

                Too bad it couldn't have been winning lottery numbers. Or stock market tips. :rolleyes:

                  LOL True.

                  I "predicted" one number on the lottery once and that was about it.

              Gee I hope not. LOL.

              If I lay down in front of a TV I have tv dreams. Kinda enjoy them.

              I also had one of the lottery number dreams - but couldn't remember the numbers to save my life once I woke up - even tried to go back to sleep to recapture them. Hahaha. I am sure in the dream the numbers were clear, too. Ticked me off furiously to lose them.

    Oh I just remembered something else which happened when I was 19.

    I had a dream about my uncle and there was something wrong which his stomach. About 2 days later my Mum got a phone call and found out he had been diagnosed with stomach cancer. I didn't know anything about it was just one of those dreams that you remember as being "different."

    Most people intuitively know when they've had a dream about something which was influenced by TV or radio because their unconscious mind remembers listening to it.

    Many people have dreams about things and then they happen. They don't usually think much about it though because it's one of those things that we don't understand.

    Sal, I had that happen to me back in "91". I had one of those number dreams and I wrote it down when I woke up. It was Jan.1, 1991 and the number in my dream was 191. So I played the pick 3 that day for a $1.00 and damn if it didn't hit! Won $500 on that ticket!

    I still kick my @ss for not betting the $5.00 max on it. Never did dream any more numbers.
