I’ve always wondered how my dreams work because I get some weird ones – not just in terms of what happens but also the timing. I’ve had crazy dreams where I’ve had part 2 before part 1, and episodic dreams. They’re pretty amazing if somewhat trippy.<\/p>\n
So last night I had this great one where I was at a set of markets, where there were all sorts of stalls, but there were three distinct ones that I interacted with – a stall where I bought a pastry and promptly lost it, which was a reference to the handmade croissant I left behind on my trip back to Adelaide from Sydney; a portuguese tart stall which had custard in a bucket and would put the custard in as you ordered and they had a special that was 3 for $4, and in my dream I knew it was a good deal but didn’t get one; and lastly a pastry stall that I bought another pastry from to replace the first.<\/p>\n
As I was walking I entered a watch shop, where I was acquainted with the watchmaker from a past dream – though I can’t actually be certain that it was truly from a past dream. In my dream I remember it being a real past dream, but I’m not so sure. Looking for a watch, I initially tried on a silver one, but I didn’t really like it, so I asked for another. I wanted something more elegant, so out came an Omega, a rose gold watch, and at the time it reminded me of the one that Nicole Kidman modelled. Full of rose gold, with diamonds to indicate the hours. However, I didn’t like the colour against my skin, even though it was a very pretty watch.<\/p>\n
At the end I asked for the price, at which point he jokingly said $9. I knew it was in the thousands, so I asked if it was 10, and the answer was yes. That’s when I said I couldn’t afford it, but that I’d come back for a watch one day – a watch that would capture my heart. He seemed to understand.<\/p>\n
And with that, I gathered the pastry crumbs that I’d spilt while trying on the watches and walked off.<\/p>\n
