Pandemic Dream
Feb. 9th, 2021 12:26 pm Interestingly I had a pandemic dream last night that my brain actively resisted.
I dreamed I was at the old Dreamhaven (one that some of you may actually remember, when they had this huge sprawling space in a basement of a building in Dinkytown,) and I was BROWSING comic books. It was a very happy dream, because in my dream I was about to drop a couple hundred dollars on comics and I knew I had the money. ​When it came time to load my prize in the car, I realized that I wasn't wearing a mask and I felt bad. But, my brain kept shifting the scene, "Oh, you're outside, it's okay!" or "Greg isn't wearing one either, maybe the pandemic is over," but I STILL INSISTED on pulling my shirt up to cover my face. I think my brain was mad at me at that point because it woke me up.
It was like, "Lyda, we are TRYING to give you a nice dream. Stop thinking about the pandemic for five minutes. Oh, you can't? FINE. WAKE UP THEN."
