Dreams (and gardens)

alexxkayLots of good REM sleep last night. I had a lengthy Thief dream, which eventually segued into an analyzing Cerebus dream. Each of these exhibits a different flavor of mental continuity. When I dream about playing Thief, I often think "This is an interesting twist on the technique they used in level X" or "I really should replay level Y sometime" -- but X and Y are invariably levels that I have played only in previous dreams, not ones that exist in reality. My dreams about Cerebus are, likewise, never about the *actual* comic book, but about some alternate universe version of it. However, the Cerebus dreams are *never* the same twice, whereas I actually do occasionally replay dream levels of Thief in my sleep. I wonder why that is...
Later on, I dreamed I was hanging out in some extremely large department store with a bunch of friends.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
learnedax, rufinia and I were checking out the gaming section. For some reason, they had some comics there also, and rufinia picked up four hardcover volumes of Preacher, which I thought was a bit extravagant, seeing as how she hadn't yet read them. I got distracted by the Nintendo section, but made my saving throw against the new Gameboy DS and various Pokemon games. Then I ran into mermaidlady and new_man. mermaidlady was being all radiant and proud about her pregnancy(!). I woke up shortly thereafter.
The strawberries are now humming along nicely. Meredith picked a pint or so for her breakfast, but when I went out a few hours later, I couldn't tell where she had picked them from, as there were still ripe strawberries pretty much everywhere. I filled up the colander above the rim, though not quite to the point of instability. Come Monday, I may not have enough time to do a full harvest run every morning :( But for today, I can bring fresh strawberries to my mom. Afterkestrell had her last eye surgery, for several weeks the only solid food she could eat was strawberries; I'm hoping that mom will find them similarly salutory.
