It's thought that one of the reasons we sleep is to give our minds time to take all of our experiences from the day and organize them into our long term memories, linking and reinforcing it's patterns. Last night I had a fitfull nights leep and I felt like I woke up (to some degree) in the middle of that process. Visually it looked as if I floating in a sea of icons, but not full icons, just fragments. It's as if I found the programmers debug access in my brain. As I got closer and closer to being awake it quickly drifted away. But for a moment it felt as if I got a glimpse of my own memory organizing itself. It was really cool. Of course, it's probably just another dream that really has nothing to do with anything, but that doesn't make it any less neat.
