It is fascinating to me how many people have told me that they dreamt about me and giving birth over the course of this pregnancy, especially in the last couple of weeks. How bizarre. I hardly ever remember my dreams, and nobody ever tells me that they dream about me. Now I have friends and mere acquaintances telling me that Copy & Paste are in their dreams. I am flattered that they are making such widespread prenatal subconscious debuts. I actually do remember part of my dream from my almost non-existent sleep last night and it involved running the marathon and hitting a literal wall (an expression for mile 20 more or less when you cannot make it anymore and the real mental fight begins) and having to touch it and turn around to finish. Even though I wrote about running and labor yesterday I wonder if this is a harbinger for the wall of pain around the corner that I will encounter and have to surmount to finish labor. What a strange business dreams, especially when you consider permeating so many random people's nocturnal thoughts.
