After a frankly excessive quantity of cheese fondue at a party last night, I had a few hours of unusual dream scenes, most too brief to remember. The strangest one was something that I was absolutely convinced was real for at least a couple of seconds after I woke up, because it wasn't just a normal dream - instead, within the dream, I had dreamed... remembering what had happened, and actually wondering why I hadn't written about it yet.

My false memory was that when we were in California, the water had been going on and off erratically throughout the day. I turned on one of the taps in the downstairs kitchen and got nothing, so I went around to the other sink and held the container I was carrying underneath the tap as I pushed on it. There were a few spurts of water, and then two goldfish plopped out of the nozzle and swam about happily in the saucepan. My parents-in-law put them in a bowl and kept them as pets.

The other one, I think, I brought upon myself - we drove back along a road called Mystic Valley Parkway, and I said that that couldn't be a real street because it sounded like something out of My Little Pony. That then featured in my dream, when I was on a panel of judges watching a class of primary school children recreate the title sequence of the programme that's captured the twisted imaginations of half the online world. While I don't know what the titles actually look like and so can't comment on their accuracy, I saw the children slipping numerous Internet catchphrases into the act - so I thumped my head on to the desk and told them they were all absolutely dreadful.
