Do you ever have cool climbing dreams?
I had one last night. I was not climbing rock though, I was climbing a house. The first part getting up to the top of the main entrance went quite smoothly. Looking up at the crux made my palms sweat a little bit, so I slung a 2x4 for pro. I then extended my right hand to a side pull off of a manky tin drain pipe and looked back at my last piece piece of pro which was solid, so I decided to go for it. I then placed my left hand onto another drainpipe to the left which was an undercling on more mank tin pipe. I then reached up and mantled onto the runout section of roof slab. Now it's time to look for the belay. Hmmm...no pro to be found. Into the window of the house I go, and found a couple of coffee tables that I used as deadmen anchors. Span them across the 2 doorways, sling em and set up the belay. "your on belay, but DON'T FALL!!". End of dream.
I need to get outdoors before I crack out. 8)

dreams are basically neurons firing off while you sleep, kinda like defragging your computer, but it can't make sense of where things go, so it might have matched "j-tree" with something you've seen on here or in person, that you might not even remember heh.
I had a climbing dream once where i didn't suck. I promptly woke up

I had another one last night. That's 2 nights in a row now :D I was in some town in the rockies and there were walls all around that looked liked Devil's tower, only waaaay bigger. The sweetest lines I have ever seen. The approaches to the base were only a 15 second walk from the motel door. ohhhhh ohhhh ohhhh yeeeeaahhhh 8) I am going back to sleep now. Man I hope it stops raining soon.

One side of my bed borders a wall in my room. I woke up the other night with my feet on the wall, and my hands gripping the mattress between the wall and the bed. I was in a full layback position and my arms were pumped. I probably belay in my sleep too! :shock:
