lactose fueled construction

[amul]

I've been drinking two glasses of milk before bed every night, a trick (f)AD taught me long ago to encourage more vivid dreams.

First night, I dreamt that I was helping (f)AD wire up some speakers in her bathroom that connected to her computer. Then, I dreamt that my building manager had asked me to re-wire the entire apartment building for modern needs (ethernet, more electrical outlets, cable, etc). Sunday night, I dreamt that Blue Beard and Comfortingly Bouncy were helping me roof the greenhouse that Unpaintable Canvas's grandfather was building. Last night, Wicked Kitten sat with me at dinner, a stack of blueprints in amongst the exotic dishes, and we discussed what we could convert the factory I had just inherited into: a theater, a gallery, a bookstore.

Four nights, four dreams, all about construction. I've been noticing a lot more For Sale signs lately, too. Prefers Sacrifice tells me that it's just selling season, but I think that I'm subconsciously looking for them more, too. All the more pity, since I am not terribly closer to buying my own property than I was this time last year, at least, not in any way that I find agreeable.

My mom gave me a bunch of websites that I could go trolling for properties on. I think that's unwise, think that the best that could happen is I'll find something I like which I won't be able to get. (Besides, whispers a broken-winged creature in a cage deep inside me, you aren't any closer to finding someone to build such things with, either. I administer a savage beating to the prisoner).

I think it's unwise. I don't think I'm in any position to own property right now, and moving out of my building would only isolate me further. At least here, while I may live alone, I live in a building full of people. A building entirely to myself is a dream for the day when I no longer need prodding to be social.

If you REALLY want to have some vivid dreams, try taking b vitamins before bed. There is of course, some other stuff you could combine, something I learned as part of my shamanic study, but the vitamins are good for you anyway. Of course I'm not in any position to convey medical advise, talk to your doctor, blah, blah, blah, and all that disclaimer BS, but hey, it works for me.
