Half-imagined dreaming January 26, 2007

I had composed a fantastic blog entry while I was dozing in bed this morning. When I woke up properly, though, it was completely gone. I can’t even remember what the subject matter was. It’s terribly frustrating because I was certain it was great and would be really interesting.

This is what happens with most of my dreams. They are vivid, detailed and fascinating. Yet when I wake up they are gone. Sometimes I’ll remember the feelings associated with them - I’m usually annoyed by something and trying to sort it out. If I’m really, really lucky I just might recall the subject matter, or who was in it. There’s always this sense that the details are just beyond my grasp.

I slept late this morning after last night’s poker-fest. Mark valiantly got up when Finn came to see us at 7am and even took the boy out to the zoo to give me more time to snooze. How much more loveable could the man be?

He’s now snoozing a bit himself before we head over to my parents’ to see Audrey. Finn particularly requested that we go and see her today so I figured we should. He’s still a bit concerned about the fact that Audrey isn’t here and why. Hopefully he’ll be happy when he can actually see that she’s at Grandma’s.
