THIS IS A TEST OF THE EMERGENCY DREAM
SYSTEM. THIS IS ONLY A TEST. IN THE EVENT
OF AN ACTUAL DREAM EMERGENCY, YOU
WOULD BE DIRECTED TO WAKE UP
AND LEAVE THIS BLOG IMMEDIATELY.

A dream-within-a-dream is a little like looking
at yourself in a mirror while holding another mirror.
Here's the scenario I encountered last night
while I lay inert in my bed surrounded by felines:
I dreamed that my dreams suddenly began appearing
on Premium T. in the form of a video. All I had to do
was log on to my blog, and the previous night's
subconscious mindscape would play on my computer.
What was fascinating about this was not the content
of the dream, but that it happened all on its own.
Now don't worry: I'm not going to suddenly start
boring you with dream-videos! (That's said, of course,
with the assumption that I'm not boring you already.)
But I kind of like the idea of easy visual access
to the psychedelic imagery of shut-eye ramblings.

WE WILL NOW RETURN TO OUR REGULAR
PROGRAMMING.

  1. I love it! I want that feature as well. Morning coffee would be ever-so-interesting if I could just watch my dreams instead of only recalling snippets.. Add that feature, ok T? And teach me how to do it too...

  2. I had a funny moment last night when I woke and realized I had just dreamed about writing in my dream journal about a dream I had just had.
    I don't keep a dream journal.

  3. Your dreams are much more appealing than mine... I only seem to dream about falling, getting lost, or working at some job I hate...

    I need dream intervention!!

  5. I've been waiting decades for someone to invent a brain-to-video dream recorder. Yesterday I had such a long, very bizarre, visually complex dream that I got up and digitally recorded myself describing it because I knew the details would be lost if I started writing them down. too bad the video was just my talking head!
