Hi all. I used to have these "dreams" when I was a kid, maybe a dozen times or more (at least that's as many as I remember). I don't know what else to call them even though they really didn't have the usual nonsense dream qualities. In these "dreams" I would walk around the house in the dark. I only remember bits and pieces. ALL of them involved trying to turn on the lights in the house. For some reason the lights would never turn on. As I remember, sometimes it seemed like I couldn't get the switch to move.
Like I said, these experiences didn't have the usual nonsensical dream qualities. I could think very clearly. I would always think, "I need to remind Dad in the morning that something's wrong with the electricity." As soon as that thought passed, I would get a sense of deja vu, or a "not THIS again" feeling, as if this had happened countless times before. In the morning, the clocks were always right and no one else mentioned the electricity being off. We lived in a suburban subdivision where the power rarely went out, even during storms. Strange, eh?
Also the angles of everything seemed wrong. Sometimes I would be looking at things from above or below that should have been at eye level.
I haven't had one of these in yeeeeaaars. I'm 29 now, I have kids, a 50 hour a week job, and I rarely even dream at night anymore. In other words I'm pretty much tied to the physical world these days. I just wonder if these experiences could have been OBEs and how I can duplicate them.
