Dream Interrupted

OK, so this is not a poem or anything terribly interesting. I still thought it worth noting.

I was lying on the couch in front of the fire nicely asleep after being up early doing a bit of writing...likely to follow later.... and WHAM!

My wife shakes me awake.

I was having a dream, I know it was a good dream too. I can't for the life of me remember even a moment of it though.

Ironically I was actually thinking this morning how I should have a little notebook beside the bed and a small light so when I wake and recall a dream I can jot a few thoughts down about it to recollect the dream later. Mostly for curiosity, perhaps some stuff to write about, maybe for the odd message. So the first thing I thought, besides why am I awake? was what was the terribly comfortable dream about? ...nothing, not even a vague notion.

So, dream busy lights. They would be cool. Just a little message...maybe just a "please do not disturb, dream in progress"...and followup "I'm dreaming so piss off!" once the shake sensor detects movement.

Should I apply for a patent now?

Jeff.
