Things That Make Me Happy on a Rainy Morning
First, there's this, the Cavegirls Halo 3 Tournament to raise money for breast cancer research. All proceeds will be donated. It's only ten bucks to enter, and it's happening this Saturday, so get ready.
And catching up on my blog reading, finally, I came across this amazing game design idea that came to Daniel in a dream. It just reminded me of how powerful dreaming can be, how liberating. I used to dream music - something my father once told me that he did, too - he dreamed entire symphonies that would melt away when he woke up. I used to keep notation paper by my bed so I could try to scribble down what I heard while sleeping. I should get a digital recorder instead, it's probably easier to hum than to remember how to write musical notation. Last night I dreamt I was riding through Central Park on a horse. We took a break, I got off the horse, and he told me he was sleepy and needed to take a nap. I took off the saddle, he lay down, and we napped in the grass in Central Park. Not the most creatively inspiring dream I've ever had, but it helped me wake up pleasantly refreshed. Posted by jane at October 17, 2007 08:28 AMComments
You're in SF, right? It's not _so_ rainy here. I can probably make it to working girls without getting soaked. Yeah, ok, it's rainy... Posted by: Andrew Cory on October 17, 2007 10:06 AMThe same thing happens to me. I often have some really interesting dreams, and I want to record them for later. (They are great short-story material, if nothing else.) What I do is use my cell phone's 'note recording' option. Really easy to get to, and as soon as I wake up, I'll grab it and start talking. I'd imagine it'd work for your humming, assuming your phone has that capability.. Posted by: tim on October 17, 2007 10:59 AM
