Cute animals inhabiting my dreams
Night before last night I had a dream that involved running cuckatoos. That sweet dream was brutally interrupted by alarm going off ass o'clock, because I had work shift starting at six.
Last night I had a dream that my friend's chinchilla had escaped and gone missing - and then was found under our porch, and because it was cold outside the chinchilla had dressed himself into a doll-cardigan and a matching, if somewhat hipstery wooly cap, and looked just stinkingly cute. (Oh, and in real life my friend's chinchillas are both black and not grey like the chinchilla in my dream was - though we both had grey chinchillas when we were little. None of them showed hipstery fashion sense, though.)
Have come across in some blogs papery journalling into calendars, drawing some pictures beside few words of each day. (The blog I first read about it called that type of journalling "hobonichi" or "fauxbonichi" depending on whether it's kept on a japanese calendar or into western calendar or notebook of same style, but it turned out that at least term "fauxbonichi" refers to a certain type of file or folio to keep your notebooks arranged rather than style of journalling, so I don't really know what to call that style). As that journalling style looks nice and I've badly fallen back on keeping real life diary these days, I sort of challenged myself to test such journalling for one month that happens to be May. Just few everyday things, like was I at work or off, what did I eat (as that seemed to be very important content of examples seen in blogs) or watch from telly, and if I don't feel like writing, then drawing more pictures. It wasn't intended to be a dream journal, but as I had shortage of content yesterday, I drew a running cuckatoo, and I guess today I must draw the chinchilla from my dream.
