Thick, Thick Gravy

*Actually from Sunday, January 7, 2007*

I dreamt I was trying to run, and I can never run in my dreams because it feels like slow motion. Like running through gravy. Thick, thick gravy.

So I realized that if I ran backwards, I would go at a normal speed. When I woke up, I was really excited about my revelation, and now will remind myself before I go to sleep at night that if I am running in my dream, I will need to turn around and run backwards. 

Also I dreamt that I was teaching a preschool class and there were 3-4 year old versions of the following people: Webster (aka Emmanual Lewis), Kenan Thompson (of the Saturday Night Live, Goodburger, and Kenan and Kel fame), and one of my students. My lesson plan included asking the question "What is the hardest thing?" My student answered "dealing with environmental activists."
