I love dreams!
I have always dreamed in color, unless there was a particular reason for black and white. I rarely have an "action" position in them, though sometimes I'm actually *in* them, rather than being a spectator. Mine are like reading a book, describing the action rather than being a part of it. Often the male characters are useless, stupid, or come to some horrible end (oh, yeah, no clues to anything there). I don't wake up and go back to one, though once I had to wake up three times to actually wake up. That one involved a nice old lady, a Bible that I had to rip in half with my hands, and a ghost on the hood of a car.
My dead dad has come to me in dreams- there was a progression. Initially he would talk with me, at a place near my mom's house. Later it was shorter, and finally he was at a conference or something and was rushed, told me he didn't have time to talk, sorry.
People from work have appeared in my dreams. During my period and around full moon I get more articulated story lines, instead of still frame shots from a movie. The rest of the month I literally get flashes of images and then it flits to the next, though a scene is often repeated with alternate endings.
I dream about work fairly frequently. This morning was my most recent. I dreamed that one of the women there was mad at me. In real life, she's a little prickly, but she doesn't yell without reason, and she's kind of hard to get to know as she's very reserved.
Lucid dreaming would be so cool. They say it literally is having complete control, though I guess that would vary from person to person.
My husband used to talk to me and he'd be still asleep. I'd wake him up, he'd say something, and I'd go back to sleep figuring he's awake. Then he wakes up, looks at the time, and says why didn't I wake him up! I did.... One time he was arguing with his mother when he was a kid. He said something, still sleeping, she asked what he'd said, he repeated something that made sense in the dream but no sense to mommy, and she wasn't getting it. There was one thing she was supposed to say but she wouldn't do it. So he was getting mad at her and he's not even awake.
My mom has told me I talk in my sleep. I've never heard anything though.
Dreams are fascinating. Sometimes they tell me things, other time it's just inspired by waking life and doesn't mean anything, and other times it's just off the wall.
