Dreamscapes
The reflected clouds look like a brain, don't they?
One of my final projects for 2008 is to dream as much and as vividly as possible, apparently. Every night this week the dreams gallop in on horseback and keep me busy until it's time to rise. My "real" life is, by comparison, rather dull.
Trying to write down as much as I can remember of these dreams, mostly because when I look back on dreams after a few months, I'm always amazed at the power of human imagination. Often I've completely forgotten every detail. Sometimes I think, "Did I really dream that??"
A few dream snips from last night:
Cheetahs and reindeer are living in the triangle park across the street. I'm wondering how they manage to cohabit.
A young boy is looking at me adoringly. He is an heir to a huge ice cream company. I am his grandmother's doppelganger. He loves his grandmother dearly.
I'm on a bus with my sister. Because I'm struggling to organize all my stuff, I don't realize (until she tells me) that we're going in the wrong direction. We get off the bus, catch one going in the other direction.
There is a coffee shop called "Chaos." Everyone tells me they have the very best coffee.
...........................
Kind of random, aren't they? I don't perceive any pattern. So I wonder what I'm doing all night long, dreaming and dreaming? It's interesting, but kind of a lot.

Beautiful shots! ; )
I wouldn't mind being in the Chaos coffee shop now myself ; )
I'm still impressed that you remember your dreams so well.
I had a dream several nights ago about a coworker, and I didn't realize it until I actually saw the coworker yesterday!
Of COURSE "Chaos" would have the best coffee!
Coffee, you're a brave man.
Steve - I've practiced remembering my dreams for decades. If you practiced, you would remember yours, too. I bet your dreams are great!
love the buildings that emerge from and grow down into the bricked street
dreams for me are amazing too
the best one was that having failed to send President Obama many shoes (Warren at the Inaugeration)--I've now organized 200,000 ticket holders to "boo" from his introduction, until he is through--message, we will not tolerate hate and intolerance--not even from you dear Obama.
I woke pleased with the media coverage and thinking our dog had changed to a dalmation.
love you
Ha! They say it's important to remember not just the content of the dream but how you felt in it. I say, it's important not to eat spicy food too late at night. ;)
I like the implied invitation to have a seat inside a somewhat chaotic brain in the first shot, which goes so well with a great coffee shop called Chaos. Just finished reading a Jonathan Carroll novel, in which one of the characters tastes Chaos, it has a bitter taste but a sweet aftertaste and is quite addictive.
Have been on many a bus ride in dreams, and they are always to different destinations than one has planned.
when i dream sometimes i wake up tired, i think my racing mind has legs...
gorgeous reflections,your photos are dreamy and belong hanging in a coffee shop...any shop.
