Ugh, sometimes I have very disturbing dreams for apparently no reason. Last night I had a very vivid - and long - dream about an abusive father and his family. Like, torturing the kids and I think a couple died. Then a few of his sons finally shot and killed him, but then it was the whole "cycle of abuse" thing with the grown-up kids. I have not idea where these dreams come from; they just appear occasionally. Well, I did see Romeo and Juliet (the ballet) last night and have been traumatized by watching the horrible torture scenes in the Last King of Scotland. This may have been it.
Every now and then I try the whole "imagine what you want to dream about before you go to bed and you will" thing, but it has never worked for me (has this worked for you, reader?). And I've noticed that I often have these really disturbing dreams on the weekend when theoretically I should be the most relaxed. And they're always really long and drawn out. How come you always wake up during the pleasant dreams??? Bizarro.

Maybe the weekend bad dreams are your mind's way of purging all the creepy crawly stressors it has collected throughout the week in order to relax you. :-)
