So, what did you dream about?Follow

Dream recall can be a nebulous thing. It is common to wake up "in the middle" of a dream where the experiences are fresh in the mind; many people try to fall back asleep to continue the dream. This generally doesn't work well. Dreams will quickly dissolve from conscious memory and leave little but a faded impression. Sometimes, though, dream recall can be triggered in part or in full at any time - be it later that day, or a week later, or years. I often get full-blown dream recall occurring after even a decade.

One method is to write your dreams down as soon as you wake up; however since that usually involves fumbling around for pen and paper and turning on a light, it may not be very effective.

What I find more useful is to lie quietly and tell myself the dream, like a story. I tend to remember the story, if not the dream.

I suppose the conscious narrative just uses a different synaptic path to memory storage. Dunno!

You'd think that, and you'd be wrong.

Never played the Sims but after seeing the web site about all the creative ways to torment and kill them, I was tempted.

Haha, that weapon rack reminds me of the trip to the museum in Boston! (or was that an art gallery?)

Museum... I always smile fondly in memory of that trip as I place my pole axes in my weapons display area
