I think it's awesome to know how other people think, and to figure out how similar or different it is to one's own. Thinking is such an automatic process - like breathing - that it's neat to pay attention to it.
2) You can sleep at work? Where? And are there any job openings?
In my cubicle, natch. :) I generally sleep during lunch, though sometimes when I'm really tired, I just put my head back and close my eyes... they don't have any requirements as to when you show up or how long you stay, so long as you get your work done on time.
The part of the brain that lights up on their instruments when you read never light up when you sleep.
But what part lights up when you think you're reading?
I don't read in all of my dreams... you'd have to catch me in the ones that I am reading in, and that would be difficult... I still think I read in some of my dreams. Just not all of them.
4) I felt as you did for a long time - the desire to hold onto your unconscious thoughts is very powerful. So I started keeping a dream journal...
I did too, for a while. It was pretty neat. The ones that didn't involve anyone I actually knew in real life were a whole heck of a lot more interesting -- goldfish adopting shark babies, political figures, that sort of thing. The ones that did involve people I knew were a little too Freudian for me.
