I used to be able to remember my dreams, but I have almost completely lost that ability. Katy from the 1990s-2000s had some good ones, though. Skiing chickens, Patrick Stewart, tornadoes and more.

Thanks to Bonnie for this link! This 12-question quiz measures how you compare to the average person in terms of daydreaming. Here are my results, which should not exactly be news to anyone who knows me. You spend more time than the average individual ‘lost in thought’ or mind-wandering. You use your mind-wandering time wisely! You spend more time than the average individual planning or problem-solving while daydreaming. You spend more time than the average individual thinking about unresolved issues while mind-wandering (i.e., you are a problem-solver). Your daydreams involve more visual imagery than the average daydreamer. You tend to ‘see’ people, places and events ‘in your head’. Your daydreams are more creative than most. So THAT’S why Katy stares off into space all the time! She’s problem-solving!

Last night I woke up about 4 a.m. and had a hard time getting back to sleep. I laid in bed for a long time and eventually my brain started wandering in that strange way that brains do right before you fall asleep. An image came to me, very clearly: My kitchen, with a plain wooden chair in the middle of the floor. Samuel L. Jackson was standing next to the chair, and he pointed at the seat and shouted “Snakes on a chair!” This startled me, even in my halfasleepness, but I decided to just let my brain go with it, and I came up with two entire verses, complete with accompanying mental imagery. Snakes on a chair Snakes in a suitcase Snakes in the drawer Snakes on the floor Snakes in my shoes Snakes in my brain Snakes down the drain Snakes on a plane! Har!
I worked in a retail store at the end of a strip shopping center, similar to a small Wal-Mart or membership club store. It was large and dim with a lot of tall dusty shelves of merchandise that nobody wanted. At the other end of this strip shopping center was a rival retail store. Amidst a lot of rain, noise, and smoke outdoors, we were hurriedly preparing for war with the other store. Our strategy was to gather as many berries as we possibly could — blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, strawberries — and place them into small bowls with which we would later arm the catapults. However, as I was artfully arranging berries in a bowl near the front of the store, the automatic doors opened in a swirl of smoke and a black-clad figure from the other store tossed in a live grenade that landed next to me. And that’s when I realized, oh, it’s THAT kind of war. Later, in the middle of everyone running around throwing berries and grenades at each other in the parking lot, I was sent out to the Jack-in-the-Box on the other side of the highway to pick up drinks and milkshakes for everyone. I got there and someone handed me an ice cream cone while I waited in line. And when I got to the front I realized I didn’t have any money.
