Paris Metro Bombed By Anarchists



Dreaming is a funny thing... and very few of the weird things I dream come true, if any. Last night though I had some very realistic, recurring dreams. Keep in mind that I had taken two Dayquil tablets earlier that evening.

I was watching the news on TV, CNN or something, and it was early in the morning and I was watching the aftermath of an apparent terrorist attack on Paris's Metro system. They were saying something like 144,000 dead, and they had already decided who the terrorists were, young French anarchists. The anarchist symbol was everywhere, and they did it by pouring gun powder above the railway system. I was thinking that now all the students and people who sport an anarchist patch on their backpacks or hats are going to be in trouble.

So I woke up, thought "weird", went back to sleep. Then in my dream my parents called me, I was in my bedroom, picked up my cell phone and we had a conversation about the terrorist attack in Paris. I woke up and fell asleep maybe four times that night, and every time I dreamt it was about this anarchist terror attack on Paris's Metro. Hope nothing happens, it was a dream after all, but still, I usually don't dream that way. Usually I dream about surreal things, like swimming in a black lake at night and having black horses leaping enormous distances out from the water in front of me as I swim, not about reality or news broadcasts.

Don't forget David Bowie's friends.

I have those episodic dreams quite often (though not for a while). It's usually in the morning, in between snoozes. I'll hit the snooze, pick up the dream around where it left off (maybe before, maybe after), and then continue until I decide it's time to get out of bed. Good stuff.
