(no subject)
I just had a tour in my sleep of a lot of the fictional places I've lived and the fictional jobs I've had, and the fictional stores I used to shop at.
I seem to have had a very active life in my dreams, parallel to my real life. I even ran into people in my dreams that I used to hang out with or spend time with in my dreams that I've never met in real life. Which is also odd, considering your brain isn't supposed to be able to generate faces, but instead has to pull them out of your memory.
I had this sense of nostalgia for the entire dream, and I noted how places had changed from how there were since I had last been there, and there was this wish in me that I could start it all over from the first place I had stayed, and do a better job this time. I even got Ooh La La by the Faces stuck in my head at one point.
I also ran into someone I had met in one of my classes a couple years ago in real life that I swear I knew from somewhere else, and I know intellectually that I was probably projecting the memory of this person back into my earlier dream life, but part of me still feels like I knew her originally in my dreams, and found her in the real world afterwards.
