Why is it that when you have a dream you really do not want to be in you can wake up and go right back into it when you fall back asleep, but when you are having a great dream you would want to extend you wake up and either cannot fall back asleep or start a new dream that is a distorted/skewed version that makes the once worthwhile dream seem even more great?

fun you say that cuss i wondered the same.
don't know really how to explain it.
for example if i told you: THINK OF A RED CAR.
you will automatically think of a red car.
so if you tell you self i want to think of that dream again,
you cant seem to dream it again. cuss you want to think of the dream so bad,
that you cant and you get stressed in a way. and it just goes around in a circle.
hope i can help you a little. and please read my dream on my blog.
you'd like it

But you can go back to good dreams, I do it sometimes. I think the key is that you can't allow yourself to wake up entirely. But you are right, it is much easier to go back to a nightmare, even after you have entirely woken up.

This morning, I dreamt that I was pregnant and radiant. I started writing my novel last night.
Good omens, the gods must be pleased.

I just joined this group, so I haven't had the opportunity to read every post, but I was just wondering if anybody here has dreams about their teeth. Teeth falling out, rotting, or loose teeth. Anything of that nature. Whenever I am in a group and we start talking about dreams, I make sure to ask this question. I have found that most people I know have dreams about their teeth. I was just curious.

its a very common dream whenever you are very distressed. i've had a few-they are more terrifying than one would imagine if they had not had the dream.

I guess most of the people I know are distressed. Makes sense. What do you think about a dream involving a three-headed lamb climbing a Buddhist stairway only to have its faces turn to Lucy from the British version of the Narnia movies upon meeting me?

hahhaaa i think that sounds awesome! lucy was always sweet and pure and a at cs lewis's heart she was a representation of a Christian which coexists with the lamb (which is a pretty big symbol of Christianity) i'm wondering was the lamb scary at first? the fact that theres three heads could also be something about the Christian trinity. The stairs-I found this (To dream that you are walking up a flight of stairs, indicates that you are achieving a higher level of understanding. You are making progress into your spiritual/emotional/material journey.) They were Buddhist which is not fitting together smoothly with all of the Christian symbols. So I would say you are confused on some level for someone about inner spirituality but you are trying to make it to a good place with all of your thoughts that you are having.

It's starting to make more sense now. I had just read the Analects, the Tao te Ching, and maybe I had even read some Thich Nhat Hanh by the time I had the dream so that may have influenced the stairs. However, it could have just as easily been Kill Bill or the second Ace Ventura movie. The lamb was not scary, but it did seem to have quite a bit of trouble climbing the stairs. It did have three heads, though...
I don't usually have strange dreams (mostly very practical things like ordering a sandwich and, every now and then, one about flying), so this one has stuck with me for quite a while.

last night i dreamed about finding a dress in a thrift store that belonged to my great grandmother Ruthy that i barely knew. she was sweet and died peacefully in her sleep. the dress was white with a tapering black wrap coller..the whole thing was quite rusty and the tag had her name on it. Even though I didnt technically know it was hers-I knew it was and had to buy it. A bit odd to dream about.

Whenever I start a new job I seem to have one work-related nightmare. Last night I had one about Caribou Coffee. (I don't even work there now but my friend told me that one near him is hiring and I figured I could do it since I've worked at one before.)
The dream mostly involved me repeating over and over that I know how to do things but every time I went to make a drink something would be empty; ground espresso, cocoa powder, milk. If you haven't worked in a coffee shop you might not be able to understand how annoying it is for something like milk to run out in the middle of a rush.
Oh! And there were mean customers a plenty.

Did you start a new job?
I've not seen anyone try and interpret dreams in this group, care if I give it a shot- I admit I'm not a professional but I play one on tv!?
I think you are looking for something in your job that leaves you feeling "empty", possibly in fulfillment because of the monotony, possibly because you have a life dream and either you don't know how to obtain it and you just give up on it and go back to doing something you know how to do, something that is comfortable, not challenging, safe. The mean customers represent the frustration with yourself and are urging you to quit picking up things you "know" are empty and move on to something more satisfying.
This may be that you need to make some changes and learn something new or face the fears and chase the life dream.

perhaps it just the change that gets you to fret? if its a new job you are probably worried. i'd agree with brandon about the cups being empty and that possibly meaning that you could do something more satisfying.
