A Missed Opportunity

[poliphilo]

It was a fairly routine dream. I had skipped out of a conference I was supposed to be attending in order to explore the town where it was being held- which I understood to be Blackburn. What was unusual was that I came to realise I was dreaming. The thing that tipped me off was the light; it looked like normal daylight- with shadows and all- but it just wasn't bright enough.

At this point- knowing I was in control- I should have taken advantage of the situation to go off and have adventures. As it was I just kept wandering around, looking into rooms, until the corridor I was walking down opened up into waking life.
