dream
I haven't been remembering my dreams long enough to write them down for a while. I think this one was prompted by seeing a certain student who'd previously been harassing me, instead working with some high school kids yesterday, and they found an injured or stunned young sparrow in the middle of the street and were carrying it in a jacket out of the way of cars.
The dream had lots of little caged sparrows trying to hatch eggs. Some of the parents were smart enough to make little nests - very elaborate houses and pagodas of straw - and some weren't even smart enough to sit on the eggs - either wandering away, or crushing them. I didn't see any baby birds, but I know that some did hatch. Peeper had an egg I think. Someone else had two conures or something that looked more like parakeets.
And I think yesterday I dreamed that I found one of my students' blogs, and it turns out that she'd found mine a year ago. I commented something like, "oh yeah, well this student and I found each other last year too!" b/c I was upset she found me and hadn't told me.
