  • Randomness and dreaming

    Be warned.  This is basically a blog about nothing...I just I dunno...felt like writing something.  Carry on.

    Sometimes, dreams are not just an over active imagination.  Sometimes, dreams are just your subconscious connecting a few dots for you because you're too stupid when you're awake to be able to connect them while there are bright, shiny objects in view.  Now you know why I don't believe in psychic abilities.  You aren't having some kind of psychic episode where you can tell the future.  Your brain is just processing at a higher cognition level and making a better prediction of what's going to happen based on all the information you have - including the bits of information that your conscious mind overlooks (so that you don't go crazy from the details) but it registered by your subconscious mind.

    Yah...lots of mumbo jumbo to say that you're not having visions of the future.  You're just predicting better by including the information you normally disregard.

    Despite all of that, sometimes people have some crazy ass dreams that have nothing to do with any of this.

    And last night...I had one of those.

    I'd share, but now it seems rather silly.

    Because who the hell would want to hear/read about *that*.

    The first night I'm away from home, usually means I'll have some crazy ass dream.  I gotta say though, my friend's place is so nice and well decorated...I actually feel sorta like I'm in a nice hotel.  Serious....when I'm done the renos at my place, I hope it's as nice as this place.  Well...I'll have a lot of unavoidable dog fur at my place thanks to my fuzzball (Elfie) but aside from that...
