Blake Schwendiman's Blog and Blook

To understand the title, you must first read Scott Adam's blog entry about his tiny goat. What I realized when I read this is that I may not be as abnormal as I had once thought. You see, when I talk to people about my dreams, almost nobody relates. Most people seem to have scary dreams or anxious dreams or dreams with adult-themed content. I have funny dreams. I have dreams from which I wake up laughing. I love it, but I've never met anyone else who dreams such funny things that they wake up their wife in the middle of the night with laughter.

For instance, I once had a dream in which I and my best friend, Tracy were travelling with our high school class to a graduation party. It was to be held in a waterpark. When we arrived, Tracy realized that he had not brought any appropriate footwear, so we immediately went to the gift shop to buy some. He approached the counter and asked the lady if the store carried any thongs. At that instant in my dream, my subconscious mind decided to give me a laugh. The dream cashier immediately pulled a pair of thong underwear from behind the counter and asked Tracy if those would work.

What I haven't figured out is why didn't the lady turn into a high-school-kid killing zombie and chase us around while trying to extract our brains? Or why didn't it become the dream where I realize that I don't have my wallet and I'm responsible for buying thong underwear for the entire senior class and now everyone is going to hate me?

Any dream experts out there?
