Greetings, my fellow port-swillers, and happy Friday!
Ol’ Robbo had quite a bizarre dream last night which can best be described as a highly stylized version of the sleeping car scene from North By Northwest.
I don’t mention this in order to suggest that my subconscious self in any way holds thoughts of, ah, courting Eva Marie Saint, which for purposes of domestic liability I deny completely. Instead, I bring it up because I recall quite distinctly that inside the dream I dozed off in the car while it was dark out and woke up again later, still inside the dream, when the sun was up and the train was slipping along the banks of a river.
I would imagine that I have had dreams about sleeping and awaking before, but I don’t recall one quite so vivid.

Did you dream about North by Northwest a while back? If it wasn’t you, there is something about that movie!
Do you remember dreaming in your dream sleep?
Reminds me of Leonardo DiCaprio’s movie, Inception. It’s a mind-bender.
Sometimes I’m surprised at how vivid a dream is and feels, the details. Makes me wonder what my psyche is trying to work out.
Maybe you need more rest…

I think I might have done, although I can’t find the post.
I remember specifically not dreaming in my dream sleep. It happened very quickly. I do remember being surprised to still be in a dream when I woke up. Very strange.
Perhaps next time I should choose the blue pill.
