Xander ,'Empty Places'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
One thing I've noticed happening since I was a kid was having moments in dreams where I stumble or otherwise mistep in the dream and jar myself awake. I'm pretty sure it's because my body is acutally doing something jarring and my dream tries to account for it.
This is extremely common, and is called a myoclonic or hypnic jerk: [link]
It's Allyson Day? Have a good one, Allyson.
Well, since it works in the water...
When I inhale underwater I almost always drown.
Oh! You mean when my head is above water. Got it.
I've definitely flown in dreams--it's generally where magically the air becomes like water, and I can just kind of swim through it!

Yeah, that definitely. But sometimes it's really hard! And not all relaxing like you would think.
I let my piercings close up years ago - my nickel allergy makes it almost impossible to wear jewelry so I never got into the habit. (No matter how careful I was to only buy earrings labeled 14k-everything, I never met a pair that didn't trigger horrible eczema. Ick.)
All my flying dreams have been a tremendous effort of concentration in the dream in order to acheive flight.
Happy Birthday, Allyson!
My flight dreams almost inevitably turn into nightmares about not being able to get back down. Like I've mastered the mechanics of floating higher, but not the ones to float down.
I've never had a flying dream. I rarely have superpowers in dreams. Except for the time I dreamt I invented a potato that could transcend time and space.
I have had driving from the back seat dreams. And when I had never driven, I used to often dream that I was in situations where I had to drive, and I would always know what to do, but I didn't know how I knew.
