Depression: Well, after a little exchange with my doctor, we're trying an increased dosage. So far, no truly dark days or breakdowns and I can pull myself back from negative thoughts a bit easier. I worry, though, that it may also be keeping me a little... hmm... "floaty" comes to mind - less able to focus/commit to doing a thing. That's hard to quantify and confirm, though. Hmm... Reading: I have a few books on my "to read" list, though I find myself reluctant to start in on them. I received The Dragons of Babel along with The Iron Dragon's Daughter, but after reading the latter I'm not sure I want to read the former. Certainly, if it's the same level of aimlessness and depressive squandering of a character and setting, I'm not up to that right now. The latest (final?) book of the Lightbringer series has been available for a while, but I've been hesitant to pick it up. I've generally enjoyed the series and characters, but as i...
Necro'ing a thread here but today I had a series of some vivid dreams myself today and wanted to put them down before they faded entirely into the aether. First was a dream about being a samurai escorting an imperial son into effectively a "dive". While in this bar he was going to meet with some representatives of a family with a shady reputation. Then a bar fight broke out so I got him out of there. He then told me his half-brother was still inside and fighting, so, doing my duty, I had to go back and get him. By the time I did, however, the fighting was over and he was gone. So I bought some sake and began to investigate. The dream sort of tapered off from there unfortunately. Second dream was sort of nautical/pirate themed, dealing with a port city shanty town. I've lost a lot of details by now unfortunately. :( I seem to recall there was also some 'county faire' elements to it. Third was again in sort of a 'poor quarters' district during a police riot. It was combining Les Miserables with modern day riot gear and vehicles. >.> the main character who I was at one point, then watching at another, was a wanted man and hiding in among the contacts he had with the merchants and poor. Some police guy then came out to threaten that his wife would hang in his place if he didn't come out. things were going to escalate from there, but I was woken up.
