Last night I got to sleep surprisingly quickly, considering how much sleep I'd had. On the other hand I actually felt pretty tired (and grumpy) most of the day.
This morning I awoke to the alarm from a vivid dream.
Dreams:
The Drawing Game
This was a very vivid dream. I dreamt that there were several of us playing a game where you all draw rectangles on a sheet of gridded paper, filling in sections of the grid with different colours, and then when all of the squares on the grid are filled in you look at it and somehow you've all drawn a picture! It was incredible and I didn't understand it at the time, but that's because it doesn't make any sense at all!
The next thing that happened was that Yu Lee decided she wanted to test out the steam cleaner attachment underneath the cooker. There was a stainless steel drawer under the oven, and when she opened it what looked like a long vacuum cleaner hose with the brush attachment was inside.
When she turned it on, all of the steam started to fill the house. I went around the house opening up all of the external doors (in this dream the layout of the house was totally different: it was detached with patio doors along each of the longer sides and a garden all around). I pointed fans blowing out of the house in one direction, and into the house on the other side, in the hope that it would create a breeze through the house and blow the steam out. On my way round the house I realised we'd had an electric radiator plugged in for god knows how long in a room we don't use very much. I remember thinking that it explained the electricity bill being so big and it being hot all of the time.
It was all a bit weird!
