Last night I dreamed I was very pregnant. And then I gave birth. I think that's what happened. It was gross. I was very unhappy. In fact, I kept saying in the dream, "this has to be a dream, because I've taken steps to make sure this couldn't happen." Does that count as lucid dreaming?

According to one source, a dream of pregnancy means an increase of wealth (only if you're a woman; if you're a guy, it means either war or too much mpreg fic!) and birth means good news.

I think this dream was the result of my brain going into overdrive considering the next step in my life: whether or not to go for a PhD. Yes, soon it will be time to start writing statements of purpose and sending $50 a school for the privilege of being considered for admission. That is, if I decide to go for it. The jury's still out, but part of my brain has been chewing on this proposition for a week or so. There are pros and cons, which I may or may not post here.

On the other hand, I may have had this dream merely because someone I used to work with gave birth a couple of days ago. The subconscious is a strange thing.

At any rate, it's Spring Break, both at school and here on this blog. See ya in a few days.
