But I guess but not terribly surprised. <\/p>\n<p>Last night I dreamt of flying. It doesn&#8217;t happen often, but often enough that I look forward to it. In my dream, it usually happens that I&#8217;m walking down the street or sidewalk or wherever, and usually feeling frustrated that I don&#8217;t seem to be moving as fast as I ought to. I try to run but feel like I&#8217;m in water or mud, and no matter how hard I push, I don&#8217;t get very far. <\/p>\n<p>Then it dawns on me; I&#8217;ll just fly. I kick off from the ground, and flying is like swimming except I can breathe and I can move pretty rapidly. I sail through the air, over treetops and houses, wherever I like.
