Well, I'm always having the same basic themes come up in dreams, and they're almost always associated with frustration or feeling trapped. Either I'm someplace I don't want to be and trying my best to escape, or I'm yelling at someone because I feel powerless. I don't think these are all that difficult to explain, since they reflect how I usually feel in waking life as well. One other recurring dream feature I find interesting is how often I come to settings that I'm sure I remember, even though I've never really seen them. Shopping malls are one popular locale, as are old schools and houses where I never actually lived. Sometimes there will be a location that I'm sure I remember from another dream, but when I wake up I'm never sure whether I had the earlier dream or just dreamed I did. Pretty complicated stuff, huh? {g} One place I recall from more than one dream is a roadside strip mall that had a room full of dogs, and some kind of Garfield merchandise.
