I always return to the petroleum storage facility where I first worked. I dream about rolling 44 gallon drums of oil, opening and closing 10" gate valves, hooking hose strings onto tank ships…:smack: it’s a lot of very hard work. My other recurring dream is on a plane. But because I don’t like heights, it mostly speeds down the main highway travelling through outback Australia. Very occaisionaly I dream I have a 3 foot long penis. So, of coure, I do nothing but sit down and give myself a blowjob. This is obviously my favourite, though I don’t have any idea where it’s set. A 3 foot penis is very distracting. ---

In waking, I know EXACTLY what my land smells like… the flowers, the rot, the swamp smell and shore smells, the smell of the wood of my boat in the sun, but I don’t know if I experience that while dreaming…it might be just a waking construct. Anyone out there dreaming aromas? Most seem to dream in color, but not so much with scent. > > Are there others in you landscape? Some have already answered, in my landscape I am occasionally pursued by things, but rarely see others, and if I do they are just passing thru. I have lots of animals and fish and birds, but no other inhabitants. I mentioned before that the berries in the courtyard smell so good. I’ve had one other frightening dream. I’m a passenger in the back seat of a convertible. I’m not there by choice. My hands are tied and my mouth is covered, although I can still speak. We are travelling very fast on a curvy, mountain road, going up. The hill is so steep, all I can see is sky. At the top, we fall over a cliff, sometimes, it’s into that cave in South America where they base jump. There, I can smell the rather fetid water at the bottom. The fall is very quiet. I wake up before we crash. ---

My dreamscape often involves [stairways](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=14944853&postcount=2) and ladders. ---

I used to dream of flying up stairwells, but never walking on my hands. I also used to dream about my teeth falling out, which I have heard is a good thing, despite how terrible the dream was.
