Dreams

For the past week or so I've been having these dreams. They are the kind that leave you confused the next day because you can't remember if they are real or just a dream. They always somehow relate to something that went on that day and involve people I know, they are also strangely mundane. The weirdest thing about them is the fact that I actually remember them at all, though not in great detail, just enough to confuse me about their actually having happened. Normally I never remember my dreams beyond just the faintest memory of them. I'm pretty sure remembering your dreams means you did not get a very good nights sleep. At least for me it seems that way, I always seem to feel more tired and generally less rested on days after these dreams.

I wonder how long this will last?

Over the past few weeks I've decided I need to experience more of LA. I know it is a huge city but I feel like I have seen so little of it. I blame this on my laziness and the fact that you have to drive everywhere. It would seem that a car would help in exploring a city but in a lot of ways it makes it harder. Sure it is easier to get somewhere far away or not all that accessible but when it comes to discovering places, cars hinder. Living in Boston for so long I was used to just walking out my door and finding new things, where as in LA you have to set out with a destination in mind. I've been fighting this for a long time but I think now I need to accept LA's form of exploration and plan places I want to go. Though I will still be wishing LA had better public transportation.
