A Quick Waking Dream

While I was watching a movie a little while ago, there was about 15 seconds where I felt like I was having a waking dream.

I don't think I closed my eyes, but my mind sort of drifted in a real strange way, and I was suddenly thinking of a scene from a book I read once.

I mentioned it to someone sitting there ... which of course sounded odd.

I read an old book one time a couple years ago, "Agent Nine Solves His First Case," or a title very similar to that. In the book he's followed by thugs in big cars and is threatened by them, chasing him, or something. For these few seconds, that whole thing was foremost in my mind. Then I must've cleared it out, because it all passed.

It might be kind of like that little bit of confusion just before you fall asleep. Except I was in a chair watching a movie. Why I was suddenly thinking of that book, I don't know.

Underwater Dream

I had an uncomfortable dream last night (this morning actually, before waking up). I was having fears about breathing and difficulty breathing, since I was underwater for sections of it.

Even when I got up and was sitting in the chair, I was wondering about my breathing and wasn't as comfortable as normal.

In this dream there was some underwater attraction. You got a breathing apparatus, like with skin diving, a mouthpiece, etc., and went down some stairs. Then going up some stairs, a long distance, you were in the midst of water and would be expected to breathe with the device. The idea as I foresaw it was to keep going up the stairs, then to have to make a return trip down, before being able to go back up the stairs that were out of water.

At times I was underwater and using the device, and the dream alternated where sometimes I wasn't underwater. The attraction was lights shining on underwater things, arranged displays, etc., that would be a beautiful sight.

I was very worried about the person with me, who was at one point out of sight going up the stairs and I lost her. I kept worrying about water getting in my mouth and in her mouth, and drowning. I was thinking, What if you cough under water? Or just open your mouth a bit? There were lots of problems.

I woke up and didn't want to go back to sleep because this was such an uncomfortable thing. Then like I said, it was troublesome just to remember. My breathing felt weird till I forgot the whole thing.
