Overslept-dreaming

Among other things, last night I dreamt that I was teaching someone how to catch fireflies with a bug net, I was quite good at doing it but whomever I was teaching kept killing them. I also went eat at a restaurant in the countryside in China. I had taken the train there. The only other thing I remember is that in this dream I went to a bar with some friends, and my friend ordered a salad, for which the portions were extremely small, so he had to supplement the salad with peanuts that my friend had bought, and I also ate some peanuts. There was more, I think I also went to Hong Kong in this dream, which was rather epically long, due to the fact that I overslept by two hours. Now it is raining here and I wonder if there is a connection between rainy days and oversleeping.

In the House

I'm in the house
I'm in the house
I do not feel like sleeping

It's freezing out
The lights are on
I feel like some more reading

Am I here
Am I there
It seems that I am neither

The words spring forth
In books they run
But mind floats free in ether

1AM Reagan

Staring at the Potomac
All the way over the tarmac
Listening to some music
Rain falls plinkplinkplinkplak

Lights doubled in the river
Almost seem to shiver
Window a black mirror
There's nobody in here

Seven cities dreaming
Eleven armies crying
When the wind is blowing
The kite flyers all go flying

Flying off tomorrow morning.

Tonight I will pull an all nighter. I will go to the airport at midnight and fly to Toronto at 6. I am looking forward to studying on the plane and never never sleeping.
