I can't rewind, so I'd better remember

[sovay]

I dreamed last night that TCM was running a film festival of character actors from the early days of film to the present day. I think my brain is trying to cheer me up. Unlike most of the art I dream about, this is the kind of thing that could actually happen. I can't do much about the actors who don't exist in waking life, sadly.

I had no idea there was an opera of David Jones' In Parenthesis (1937). For years it has been one of my favorite bewilderingly obscure works of art; I am glad to see that's changing. Also, I get the impression I should read Owen Sheers.

I think I have come down sick. My entire body hurts, I slept almost eight hours, and I feel worse than I did when I went to bed. That always feels particularly unfair.

Feel better soon!

I dreamt about...beta-reading. Which is hilarious, because right now I am...beta-reading. Thank you, brain, for the redundancy! *snrk*

I have always felt cheated by dreams that are about either falling asleep or waking up, not to mention the kind where I stress in a perfectly realistic way about something that's stressing me while awake.

I feel cheated by such dreams but get them all the time. My dreams are so exceedingly mundane. It's very rare that I get anything really creative. I don't think my subconscious has any imagination. :p

For someone who can lucidly dream some of the time, I don't make much good use of the ability...
