you are anything but a dork...except maybe in a good way.
my fear of dreams is directly proportional to how much i believe them. i can almost always tell i'm dreaming, but the knowledge seems to be on some sort of grayscale...in terms HOW aware i am that it is a dream. through most of that scale, i can take hold of a dream and change it so that it is less scary or so that i react in some really cool way.... but every great once in a while i have a dream that is so real that i can taste it, smell it and feel it in all 4 dimensions. by 4 dimensions i mean that even the passing of time feels real. some of them were so complete that i think a write-up would have a 100% chance of getting into a gothic horror magazine if i were a better writer. those are the true terrors, complete with sweat upon waking.
