Sooo....lessons about sleep.

Or, the reason thirteen(plus) hours of sleep is bad.
I'm finding more and more that if I sleep for more than twelve hours I have really strange dreams for the last hour or so. And more than just being strange, they're vivid and fairly lucid, and I have trouble telling if they're actually dreams while I'm having them. A degree of realism is present in most of my dreams, but these....possess enough realism during the dreaming to influence my behavior for the day, and occasionally longer.
I could explain better if I described my most recent dream, I suppose, but I'd rather not. I'd rather forget about it, pretend it didn't happen, and keep the players the hell away from sharp objects for a while. It's been a long time since I had a dream that was realistic to the point that I could actually feel pain, inside the dream. I occasionally wake up with phantom flares of pain, memories from my dreams, but those are...good, dreams.
Och, I'm gonna go kill something. Maybe that'll lift this damned darkness.

*wonders what got killed* Poor innocent creature, doomed to the wrath of a man who has been harassed by a swarm of bad dream.
And, fear not, I'm a gamer. I killed no innocent creatures. Mostly because I don't wanna go to jail again.
