I don't get sex dreams all that often, the dreams always seem to end before getting far enough 🙁

As for geeky dreams...A nightmare involving Colossus in Halo 2 comes to mind. I didn't even like to play on the map after that.
 
Played gt2 for six hours attempting a license. Woke up and got it on my first try after dreaming about it all night.
 
I'd been having a problem that day with my postfix server, so I just went to bed and later woke up in a cold sweat after having a dream about fixing my postfix server, after I realized in the dream I needed to edit a line in my postfix.cf. I woke up thinking, 'wow, that was a geeky dream, i have go get laid', but got up and SSHed into my server and whatever I dreamt fixed my postfix server right up.

It was a nightmare (of a kind) actally. I dreams I everytime closed some window another opens and holding alt+f4 did now work. I kept trying to close the windows until I woke up in the middle of the night...then I went to get a drink and went back to sleep..no nightmare this time.

amazing that anyone even understood what I said, considering how incoherent my post was. wtf was I up to that day?!
 
Probably when I dreamed I was stuck in a CSTR and the agitators were spinning too fast for me to escape from the outlet.

*For those non-ChemEng people, a CSTR is a constant-stirred tank reactor. It is a large cylindrical tank with inlet at top, outlet at bottom and rod in the center that spins. Numerous impellers are attached to the rod. There are also stationary baffles to keep a vortex from forming.
 
I once dreamed about the code I was working on for class and having some trouble with. When I woke up I went straight to my computer, finished the program. It compiled without errors and ran perfectly.
 
I was treking through a forest out in the mountains and I was by this creek when all of a sudden it dawned on me. I was a Druid of the CLAW! I had become so in tune with nature that I could shapeshift into bear form! Then it became hilarious because I found the form change so hilarious that I kept on going back and forth until I woke up!
 
It was right after the first night of getting half life 2. Riding to school on a bus still dreaming about the game. In my dream I was dreaming about those towers that pound into the ground making a loud noise to scare off the starship trooper lookin dealys. All the sudden I woke up and heard the sound!! I thought I was on that train in the beginning of the game. I look out the window and I was on a bridge and this giant machine was pounding a cement pole into the ground for a new bridge. I reached for my grav gun. When it wasn't their I finally relized what was going on.
 
I had a nitemare that my webserver crashed and I lost all my photos. I woke up in cold sweats, and couldn't go back to sleep until everythign was backed up 🙂
 
WCII and WCIII dreams. usually from playing until 4am and then passing out right after. the sounds of bloodlust would be in my dreams...
 
I had a dream where I found out my compiler (for class) didn't work (i.e. crashed on a very specfic test case) the night before the project was due, and I dreamt how I fixed it.
 
I think I've solved a math problem in my sleep. One I was unable to solve for homework earlier.

Recently I did some dreaming about PHP and HTML. I've been doing a lot of work lately.

A friend of mine has had Starcraft dreams where he fights a Hydralisk.
 
Last night in my dream, someone told me I was an idiot in the time domain.

I asked him if I was an idiot in the frequency domain, too.
