Bad dream
Apparently still sulking over yesterday's loss, I dreamt last night that my opponent had put me in atari. Then I see that if I connect, I will still be in atari, and in fact all of my stones on the entire board are in atari. To make matters worse, in preparation for removal from the board, I see that my stones are in little brown paper shopping bags. I've been Pwnd!
Patience, grasshopper.

Re: Bad dream
I had one interesting go "nightmare" where I was playing in a tournament. It was my turn, and before I moved I adjusted one of the stones on the board. My opponent claimed that touching the board without placing a stone counted as a pass and my turn was over! I was so pissed and started arguing with the guy when I woke up.

Re: Bad dream
That's an interesting dream. Although the first thing that came to my mind when I saw the title was "A Bad Dream" by Keane. 
I once had this dream where the stones were talking to me while i played and they kept telling me what a terrible job I was playing. Of course, only I could hear them, so when I got fed up and shouted, "shut up!" everyone in the room stared at me. I remember being quite embarrassed in the dream, and then I woke up.
Then again, I have weird dreams all the time.

Re: Bad dream
A bad loss can cause uneasieness which tends to effect sleep(use to happen to me every night until I lost my emotional attachment to the game, thanks to my friend who goes by oddalot on kgs)
