Today I wrote, sang, watched stuff… all the usual really. My dream prep was decent again, though not as good as yesterday, but still good. I did sleep fairly late though, so dreaming would undoubtedly be impacted, just from having less time to sleep.
Dreams
6.08am – I don’t really remember this one, and I don’t remember waking up before this, so I guess this was my first dream of the night. There was a machine that could find ghosts from different realms of visibility. There was a girl, who had been playing on stage yet another dreamsong (vague recollection of a chord used, but that doesn’t make a song does it?) She went missing soon after finishing her set, and people were trying to use the ghost finding machine to locate her.
8.45am – I was waiting with my girlfriend for someone who was coming to see us. While waiting I began singing ‘Bring him home’ from ‘Les Mis’, and sang fairly well, but about halfway through my ears blocked up almost entirely, it was like I was a ten feet underwater listening to something on the surface. I continued and finished the song, like a professional, and walked upstairs to literally clear my head. It was very weird. Then the person we were waiting for showed up, they told us they were late because their car had contracted, the ‘Black Death’, and was spewing black smoke from the exhaust. We sat to watch a TV programme about a farmers show somewhere. Kids were being interviewed after their events. One girl came second in some kind of pig racing event and was really upset with her yellow ribbon, she should have come first. A second person was disqualified from another event; smearing/sowing cow semen with a paint brush on the grass, with perfectly robotic movements… line dancing, semen painting toddlers! Really, Brain?
I’m now well convinced that awareness is the lynch pin for good dreaming, even if it’s just good recall. I really have had great success on days of good awareness. Also my increased musicality during the days seems to be bleeding into the dreams of late.
