Analyse that

Had another Perdita dream last night. It's interesting plotting these dreams.

In every one of them I'm carrying her or holding her for the whole, or most of the dream. In the first dream she was very much just a reanimated corpse, with no strength to move on her own. In this latest dream she was trying to get away when a dog approached me...she even stratched me. Then she got up and was eating.

Overall, my cat is becoming less 'dead' with each dream.

And I wake up feeling less torn apart each time. I came into uni and saw her photo on my desk and it made me happy. :-) It's a start.

My cat died several years ago, and he STILL shows up in my dreams. Sometimes in the dream I'll be like "heh, wow, I thought you were dead!". Sometimes I'll realise he's dead later in the dream and he'll sortof extract himself from the dream (but not in a bad way, just a "yeah, I guess I am" way). But it has been impressing me just how long after his death a part of my mind sstill thinks of him in an "of course he's there" kind of way.

Oh yeah, I expect Perdita to show up for a long time yet.

the thing that interests me about my dreams at the moment is that I seem to be returning her to health. She was very much Wesley-just-after-he-was-given-the-pill-and-woke-up-in-the-princess-bride weak, and now she's got a bit of fight in her. I'm interested to see where I go with this...is she going to be a Benjamin Button?
