Dreams

Trouble with dreams is you never know
When to hold on and when to let go....
-"Trouble With Dreams" by Eels

I have been having the strangest dreams lately. Dreams that are so vivid, I am tempted to ask the people that were involved in the dream if they actually happened. Recently I dreamed that I went to downtown Sonora to a place I used to live with Libby, right on Washington street. I was looking in the windows and wishing I lived there again. I felt that I had done this many times before. The door was open, so I went in and wished even more that I lived there again. I looked at all the shops down the street and loved their proximity. I looked down the street and remembered how bad parking was. When I woke up, I was still thinking of the place, and felt completely disoriented. I considered moving back to that apartment. Then I remembered that I lived in LA, not near Sonora. Then I realized that the apartment does not exist. I still miss it though.

Other dreams are less realistic. Last night I dreamed I was trying to flush some old tennis shoes down the toilet. They would not go down and I was so confused, and was wondering how other people got rid of old shoes that were worn out.

Dreams are funny.
