Reading acdw's post (dream journal entry?) I couldn't help but think of an article in Scientific American that discussed the recent global uptick in dreaming.
Robillard found that 37 percent of people had pandemic dreams, many marked by themes of insufficiently completing tasks (such as losing control of a vehicle) and being threatened by others.
On the whole, it sounds like acdw managed alright — the mere prospect of singing would leave me a nervous wreck.
I am curious if the article and study linked are representative of anyone else in Gemini-space. I personally haven't had any notable dreams but also don't think I've meaningfully changed sleeping habits (which is to say they could be better).
