Jamaica, e-readers, airports, dreams

Are you guys interested in hearing about the books I'm reading this year (as part of my quest to keep better track of what I've read) in my videos? Let me know in the comments.

Haha yes, I have boring dreams too. Usually just sitting around talking with friends, in my room, at a park, in a bar, at school. Just endless talking about nothing interesting. That's interesting about the TSA thing. And I'm glad to hear you took to ebooks well. :)

@DavidVlogs That's interesting that so often your dreams are about conversations - mine are almost always my thoughts in my own head, with very short conversations with other people once in a while. Do you ever remember specific topics of conversation or parts of the dialogue? This idea of elaborate dream conversations fascinates me, like they could inspire writing/other creative projects.

As a pure anecdote: I had a dream in which you and I met. You were wearing your "Harold Loves Maude" sweatershirt, a flowered skirt, and blue converse sneakers. I was wearing my usual. Oh, and it was in the middle of Civil War.

I can't remember when exactly I had that dream... but if you recently had a dream where you met a frizzy-haired youth very out of place during the civil war then perhaps we have unknowningly succeeded in telepathy

@violetichigo1999 I'm kind of jealous of your elaborate-sounding dreams and the details (my outfit!?) you can recall from them. I don't think I've ever dreamt about a war of any sort, and I don't tend to dream about people I haven't known in real life (besides characters I feel like I know from movies/TV shows). We'll have to keep working on that telepathy thing.

I would really like to see that picture. E-readers are okay, but adding on to what you already said, it's annoying to have to charge it, and you can't flip through the pages like a regular book (mostly I just do that for english though). I'd be interested in what you are reading, but I would also be interested in the general type of book that it is and why you like it (which might help me decide how much I want to read it).

Ahhh, reading books in a hammock. That is certainly the way to do it.

Airports are stressful. We should just invent time travel.

Sometimes, my dreams are really bizarre, like when I was little and dreamed about this mutant celery stuff that ate dead mallards. But when I got a job last June, I definitely had my share of work dreams. I work in a grocery store, and in one dream all the tills were arranged really weirdly and so it was a work dream made slightly more exciting...I guess.

@alyiswriting Well, I've never come across a person in a "Harold Loves Maude" sweatshirt and the concept infected my Delta brain waves. Characters play a big part, especially if they're from books. Your perception of a written character fills them out in the reality of the dream. I don't always recall dreams in elaborate detail. For instance, I remember havng a good dream where I carried on a conversation with Isaac Asimov and yet I can't recall what we were actually saying!

@alyiswriting We all make our choices. I don't judge. But for me, I can't throw away the rights that people died to grant me.

When I remember them, my dreams are usually pretty wild. I can definitely empathise with your security check experiences though. Every. Single. Time!

@alyiswriting That's a lot of places! I've also been to New Zealand and I'm in Germany right now. I've also been to 13 US states including Hawaii.

@ZeavoTown That sounds incredibly terrible!

@BlakesNo1 I guess I should be happy my dreams aren't scary. But seriously, if we could lucid dream every night sleeping would be so much more fun!
