ysobelbad side about being awake until 5 or so /and/ having someone scheduled to come get you up in the morning: hello not enough sleep.
(at least I had already asked her to come at 11, instead of her usual 9:30. yay sleeping in! or, in this case, yay getting barely enough sleep to function as a human being.)
good side, such as it is: I remember my dreams better.
One was a TV show mystery drama, where the protagonist was either Castle or this kind of hot Korean detective (it fluctuated, in the way dreams do, between the two.) He was checking out a crime scene, and he lay down where the victim had been, which was in the kitchen with his head half under some cabinets, and he noticed some distinctive scratches in the cabinet doors that matched a set of ceremonial knife-sword-things the guy had, but in reaching for one he cut his finger on one of the (apparently super-sharp) blades, and it wasn't a serious cut but blood started welling up and he was trying to cup his hands to keep it contained but it probably contaminated the crime scene and then after he washed it off, the camera cut to his ex-wife who was with some friends and kind of laughingly showing off an accidental cut on her forehead, and I realized that the show was setting up some sort of Complication where the protagonist would be accused of attacking his ex-wife and of killing the victim because his blood was at the scene.
...yeah.
And the other dream was about knitting -- I wanted to make scarves forwaldo's ferrets (Logi was inexplicably albino?) and I was trying to figure out what colors would work best for them; and I figured the fastest way of doing it would be on a Knifty Knitter loom; but as I was getting started my mom came by and was saying how "studies have shown" that loom-knit fabric may look like knitted fabric but that the rows would unravel because they weren't really connected, and also it had an unstable edge because *proper* knitting cast-ons had both the caston and the first row of knitting, whereas this was just the caston, and I was trying to explain the different sorts of cast-ons (long-tail cast on does include a row of knitting in addition to the caston foundation, but others don't) but she wasn't listening because she knew better or something.
...and I was, /in the dream/, trying to figure out which Ravelry forum to post on.
