I recently dreamed that I'd been born a boy but for some reason had been disguised from birth as a girl. As if a gene code had been activated, I suddenly started to go through some sort of secondary puberty and my body transformed into that of a - hermaphrodite. Scary Biscuits.. I have no idea why I would think of myself as being of "concealed identity". During the same set of dreams I also saw a sun-bleached blonde haired woman looking right at me, head/shoulders, as if having a passport photo taken. I don't know if this is related but yesterday I woke up with an unfamiliar woman's full name in my mind. I failed to write it down before forgetting it. I also had a lucid dream recently of seeing a dark haired man standing at the front of my house as if trying to keep out of view of the front door.
*By far the more fascinating things happen to me not in my dreams but in reality, in my everyday life. eg. About 2-3 days ago I was on the internet, quite relaxed, quite happy, and I suddenly got a whiff of a rather unpleasant smell. To be honest I thought one of my cats had pee'd somewhere. The pungent odour didnt last long; It wasnt in the room, it seemed to be confined to my nose. I checked the house and there was no sign of any feline accidents. Strange. Today I joined a friend and her pals for lunch. I ordered a lunch portion of haddock potato and leek "gateau"; It arrived and looked fantastic, very 'haut cuisine', but OMG...it smelt like cats pi$$! SERIOUSLY, worse than Kestrel Lager, it was the most foul smelling food Ive ever had. Normally I'd pull a gun at the chef, but because I was with friends+considered there was a TINY possibility that there was simply something naturally pungent about the dish, I decided to be a grown-up for a change and not make a fuss. I decided to "suck it up" and just eat the food. It was after all only fish, potato & leeks.
I still feel like I'd sucked a urine-soaked sock for lunch.
Somebody up there hates me. I just know it.
