Writer's Block: Say goodbye to Kansas, Dorothy

I'd be kind of excited. I would want to know immediately what my real life circumstances were. Am I healthy? Do I still have the same family? Am I still the same person?
I've learned a lot from my life experience, but I've got more cards stacked against me than I'd like. Being free of chronic pain and fatigue and immune deficiency issues would give me a COMPLETELY different life. Even with depression/anxiety, I really feel that, at this point in my life, I could be unstoppable at whatever I set my mind to.

Okay, I adore your answer. :)

Hee! Aww, thanks! :)
It's true though...I've been through a lot, and it's all been character-building. I'm quite savvy and tough now because of it. Been watching a lot of Heroes lately, and I was just thinking, if I woke up one day and had Claire's mutation (indestructible, healed from anything), I would REEEEALLY have it made! As it is, my brain's sort of stuck inside a finicky body, and I struggle a lot to work with that.

not including the doctors and "medical experiment" explanation, this has sort of actually happened to me. I've had several experiences of dream sequences that seem to span *years* in the dreamspace, only to wake up as usual in what I refer to as "level 0". The dream space fades quickly, real life (or so I assume, it's the best model I have, and the one i'd bet on) takes over, no big deal. I don't think I can say what my reaction would be if
the "real life takes over again" step didn't occur.

Some day in person ask me about the ridiculously recursive dream sets and particularly the one with the "Oatmeal" totem.

wow. yeah...dreams can be freakishly realistic sometimes. I've never had -that- particular dream sequence, but lately I've had extremely vivid dreamscapes, which I attribute to tizanidine, a muscle relaxant I take pretty regularly.
Oatmeal totem: check. will ask about that. :)
