You know how when you dream about a familiar place, sometimes it has that over exaggerated nightmare tinge all over it? Lol. Well I'm no stranger to those kinds of dreams, based in this same town. But I've rarely ventured outside of the area my actual home was in before now. I remember ONE dream that I had several years ago (probably near a decade by now) and I went maybe a block beyond where my house was, and there were businesses there which didn't actually exist.
Now I'm going several blocks away from the "origin" point of my house, and this is where all the "new" buildings are.
There is a building on main street that I have a very involved history with and I've dreamed about it MANY times. Whenever I see the outside of the building in that dream, the surrounding area is the same as I remember it in real life.
The locations that I've dreamed about recently are between that main street building on the outer edge of town, extending to a few blocks away from where my house is.
This whole entire "new" area bears literally no resemblance to the real town, yet in the dream it is ABSOLUTELY that town. There are even complex roadways, crossings, etc. that I have a pretty fucking hard time believing I could make up. There are neighborhoods just off the main street, every side street and home is complex in detail, back yards, side yards, alleyways. I mean this is a COMPLETE landscape.
