    Author Notes:

    Josh: Christina…Christina…do you hear me? Christina snapped out of it. Christina: oh my god, I’m sorry Josh what were you saying? Josh: the gallery opening…do you want to go? Christina: um sure…yeah that would be great I love art. Josh: What were you thinking about a few minutes ago you seemed lost in thought? Christina:

    Josh: Christina…Christina…do you hear me?

    Christina snapped out of it.

    Christina: oh my god, I’m sorry Josh what were you saying?

    Josh: the gallery opening…do you want to go?

    Christina: um sure…yeah that would be great I love art.

    Josh: What were you thinking about a few minutes ago you seemed lost in thought?

    Christina: oh nothing just something I remember I need to take care of on my way home.

    Christina lied she didn’t want to admit to Josh that she was thinking about a certain brunette.

    Christina: so um…have you met this Bette Porter yet?

    Josh: no actually never seen her before but definitely heard of her, my friend James is her assistant actually he got me into the show, the tickets are exclusive and if you’re not a big name in the art world don’t think about getting in.

    Christina: oh wow, well it should be fun, can’t wait.

    They talked for about an hour then made their way back to work.

    In Henry’s Office…

    Elizabeth was sitting across from Henry with the blanket covering her from the knees down. Henry had his glasses on which made him looked more professional and her files in his hands.

    Henry: Again Elizabeth I know what you are wondering so let me get to the basics. To start off you had volunteer to be a study in our scientific lab. We met a couple of days before the actual study took place and went over the details of just what we are doing here, I’m sure you can’t remember at the moment and that’s fine, to be expected but I have no problem to explain again. I created this small technology chip called DAS (Dreams and Suppressions) that allow me to follow your dreams as they occur. I’m not sure you are aware but there are five stages on sleep. Stage one is when we are preparing to drift off, well we go through Alpha and Theta, and have periods of dreaminess, almost like daydreaming, except we are beginning to fall asleep. Alpha is the restful place, during this stage, it’s not unusual to experience strange and extremely vivid sensations or a feeling of falling followed by sudden muscle contractions. These are known as hypnogogic hallucinations. We then begin to enter Theta, which is still a relatively light period between being awake and asleep. The second stage of sleep lasts about 20 minutes. Our brain begins to produce very short periods of rapid, rhythmic brain wave activity known as Sleep Spindles. Body temperature begins dropping and heart rate starts slowing down. In the third stage deep, slow brain waves known as Delta Waves begin to emerge. It is a transitional period between light sleep and a very deep sleep. Stage Four is a deep sleep that lasts for about 30 minutes. Sleepwalking and bed-wetting typically happen at the end of Stage Four sleep…Henry chuckled…but most importantly is stage five known as REM. REM sleep is characterized by eye movement, increased respiration rate and increased brain activity. REM sleep is also referred to as paradoxical sleep because, while the brain and other body systems become more active, your muscles become more relaxed, or paralyzed. Dreaming occurs because of increased brain activity, but voluntary muscles become paralyzed. Rapid eye movement, or REM sleep, is when you typically dream. You may have images float by in earlier stages, particularly when you are going through Alpha or Theta, but the actual dream state occurs in REM. This period of paralyzation is a built-in protective measure to keep you from harming yourself. We are trying to prove a theory I had that proves we dream in order to exercise various neural connections that affect certain types of learning. I believe when dreaming it allows us to sort through problems, events of the day or things that are requiring a lot of our attention if only we can remember all of them. I also believe there is a thing called repressed longing — the desires that we aren’t able to express in a social setting. Well our dreams allow the unconscious mind to act out those unacceptable thoughts and desires. Now a person can have up to 6 to 10 dreams a night but you only remember one and if lucky maybe two, well I wanted to prove that a person could remember all if only they could fall into a deeper sleep, to do that I had to induce you into comatose sleep…

      the end just blew me away.
      Thank you for sharing this with us. and I really hope that you come back with another great story soon!

    4. Two thumbs up for your wondeful story. Dreams interpretation huh ! Very creative. I am sure you are going to write more.. I promise to be your loyal reader. Continue to enjoy what you do best… Cheers !

      • hahahhaha first let me say how thankful I am that you actually read it……now im gonna express my sadness that you haven’t updated Lover in the Dark…AAAARRRGGGGHHHHH LOL Now do you see how I feel lol

    9. Freud was one of the researchers on dreams (logical at that time did not have the technology we have today, continuing) and explained a very important concept: when you sleep your subconscious mind awakens. And when we wake up, wake up the conscious mind and the subconscious falls asleep. Freud also found that during the dream all our frustrated desires, emotions, thoughts that were not released during the day are released by our unconscious mind. So are our dreams, according to Freud.
      You are very talented and creative.
      This story goes to my favorites list.
      Loved this order.
      Well that could have more !!!
      10 stars !!

    12. Just finished up this story and I have to tell you I did not foresee the twist here at the last. What a great idea, and you carried it off so wonderfully!

      I laughed through much of the chapters and loved your author-asides…those were hilarious and I could even see your face as you made them and hear your voice. No, TN1, I don’t have you under surveillance :), but your “voice” and personality along with your Twitter pict really come through your writing.

      On a serious note, I think Kit had it partially right a few chapters ago when she said technology would destroy us. In a way it might, but not because the technology itself isn’t good or useful, but that our own humanity often gets left behind because of it. I think about how often people are able to be cruel and judgmental via the internet because they can remain anonymous.

      Anyway, I liked this story a bunch and am glad you are writing so prolifically. Dang, I wish I could write as fast and as much as you! I’ll check out your other offerings, but first I need to go back and catch up on some other writers.

      • Sorry for responding late but I had to go to the hospital because when I seen that you commented on my story, I fainted!lol…gosh I admire you sooo much and to have you read anything of mines or following me on twitter is just the greatest thing in the world to me, like no kidding…thanks for taking the time out to read I know you are a busy person and I appreciate it from the bottom of my heart!
