The anxiety from being unemployed at the end of the month, and having no medical insurance seeps into my unconsciousness every now and then.
The last book I read was called Neverwhere and was about a subterranean culture beneath the streets of London and that definitely flavored my dreams for a few nights.
Yesterday while Sara was having her procedure done I started reading Miracle In The Andes: 72 Days on the Mountain and My Long Trek Home. Sure enough last night I dreamt I was in a plane crash in the mountains, luckily, without Ethan Hawke.
The funniest thing about my dreams lately is that my Mom is still so prevalent. Half the time it isn't until I awaken that I realize I was even dreaming about her in the first place. Then I feel disappointed that I didn't pay more attention to her while I was in the dream. Other times I try to focus on her presence in the dreams and then suddenly, my reality interferes and she can only smile at me lovingly, but is unable to speak. I become obsessed with talking to her but she can't and then I realize it's because she's passed away. Then the dream dissolves into something else or my eyes open briefly to stare at my ceiling as I try to hold on to the fading dream.
