Snooze Button Dreams

Have you ever noticed that you dream (or remember dreaming) a lot more in the 10 minutes that pass until you have to hit the snooze button again? I dream a lot in the normal way now, but in high school I could never remember any dreams except the ones that happened between 7 and 7:10, and 7:10 and 7:20, and so on.

They're like quick hits or something, cheap thrills that can't really haunt or overwhelm you, but I love them. Especially on Saturdays, I not infrequently make the choice to keep sleeping in the hopes of having more of these dreams. I had a friend who developed some type of addiction to lucid dreaming, and I'm starting to get worried. [The Sleepy Parts of the Brain] may be trying to take over.

  1. Yeah, funny how that tends to be the case. Those are usually great dreams. I think there are worse things you could get addicted to, yeah?
