happy nightmares

Why is it that every time I get scary dreams, I wake up happy. Yesterday, I woke up to rather unusual "nightmare." It wasn't about ghosts or zombies (my favorite), but instead it was a psychological thriller which felt like a cross between "The Usual Suspects" and "The Silence of the Lambs." Like most of my dreams, I've forgotten what it was about even if I've repeatedly told myself to remember the details. I still can't remember what made it special until now. I just remember that in the end, I realized that I made a wrong assumption in the beginning which created a ripple effect that affected the whole plot - much like the mistake of letting Keyser Soze walk out of the investigation in "The Usual Suspects." (If you haven't seen that film, I suggest you watch it as soon as you can. That's one of the best movies I've seen.)

Anyway, maybe I should keep a dream journal. I can probably get a good script out of those dreams. Also, I'm 90% sure that I dream in color which means I've got a good imagination (or is it I'm creative?) There was even a time when I dreamt of solving hard puzzles - in color. Top that!

I'm now looking forward to whatever it is that I'd be dreaming of tonight.
