#oneaday Day 1012: The Dreamlands

Been having some weird-ass dreams for the last few weeks, and I'm not 100% sure what's brought them about, because I haven't changed any bedtime habits in a particularly major way. Nor am I eating or drinking anything particularly weird before going to sleep. All I know is that my subconscious apparently has a lot to say.

Sadly, I can't remember many details of said dreams, which is a shame as I'm sure they'd be interesting to talk about and try and interpret. But I do know that they are both weird and vivid at the time they're happening. I'm not sure I'd necessarily call them "nightmares" because they're not really… scary as such, but they are somewhat unsettling at times, and the kind of thing where you wake up in the morning feeling like something just isn't quite right.

I do know that last night I woke up at some ungodly hour in the morning thinking there was someone banging on our front door, and it kind of freaked me out a bit. Quite a lot, actually; I wasn't sure whether or not I should go and check downstairs for a good while beforehand, but eventually curiosity got the better of me and I went to have a look. Nothing was out of the ordinary downstairs and there weren't even any cat shenanigans going on — the one cat was sleeping on our bed at the time (in a fairly inconvenient position, yes, but that is nothing unusual for her) while the other was asleep on "her" bed in the spare room.

On the one hand, I do enjoy interesting and strange dreams; there are times when I even deliberately want to go back to sleep just to explore them some more. That's not especially productive, however, particularly when there's work to be done, so I should probably wish for a peaceful night's sleep or something. Either way, I'm going to get an early night tonight; we'll see if that makes any difference!
