I dreamt about having a Virus. Soo weird, read to learn why.

Before waking up this morning I had a dream. I remember it as me looking at a pc screen as my computer is starting up. But the system doesn't load. After some BIOS lines I see a black screen with a another slightly lighter black screen inside. There is only one line on the top of the screen that says something similar to "Your have a virus (virus name)" Don't know what it was called but most likely something with periods and letters Z in it's name.

the weirdest thing is that I learnt in psychology class that in dreams you can't see any text, or read anything because reading part of brain is sleeping when you sleep. But I think I could read that sign. Maybe I saw somethign like letters and only imagined I was reading it.

Anyway it was weird. Comptuer in the dream didn't start.

lol, you sure you cant read in your dreams? I cant remember 100% whether or not I have done so...but Im pretty sure I have before, maybe its because I am an EXTREMELY light sleeper and I dont think my brain ever fully goes to sleep...

Then again I always know when Im dreaming...I just hit something extremely hard when ever I suspect I am

I remember a number of dreams involving reading. I can read in dreams, it's just harder. Sometimes I can't read at all, sometimes I can read just fine, and sometimes the words seem to shift and move as I try to read.

And, technology not working properly is a very common theme in dreams. In fact, it's rare for technological things to work as they are supposed to when you're dreaming.

Maybe it's your subconcious giving you a sign that you need to take a break from the computer!

I had a dream about a client's case last night. This morning I sent him a bill for $600.

I remember a nightmare where I was editing the system.ini and messed up the computer.

The cool part about reading in your dreams is you don't have to look for your glasses
