Today's post will be shorter than usual because I have a
lot of writing to do today, and it's all my subconscious's (s's, or
just s' I can never tell) fault. You see, I had a dream last night.
In fact, I had several dreams, most people have 3-4 a night,
interspersed among the various stages of sleep. But that's not the
point. I'm not writing today about sleep cycles. No, I'm writing
about dreams. My dreams, for the last four nights, have had what I
call a serial dream; a dream that has continued to pick up where it
left off night after night. Pretty cool, huh? I still have all the
other normal dreams: flying, showing up to work/school/shopping in my
underwear, etc. But for these last four nights, without fail, one of
my dreams has been the continuation of the same storyline.
This happens to me from time to time, not sure why. And
why do I call them serial dreams? Because that's what they are,
serials. They're not recurring, just continuing. Some of them reach a
conclusion, others simply stop after a while without ending. It's
like television without reruns. Sometimes you love the show and it
eventually ends, other shows get canceled. I've often wondered if
other people have dreams like that.
My point to all this rambling is that I have to write
these dreams down. So nice of my subconscious to hand over a freebee
once in a while, but it does add to my already long list of stories
to write. My serial dreams are always well crafted, filled with
dynamic and interesting characters and the plots just drag me in.
