Is it possible? Designing something while I sleep?

Maybe if my mind was connected to a computer while I slept, sure. But then I would need to be Bluetooth enabled, and ensure the firewall is up, and make sure anti-virus is up to snuff. Otherwise I could wake up with a massive head cold. Bah! Who needs that hassle.

Rather just chalk it up to a dream. If I remember it when I roll out of bed in the morning, it was a good one. If not, best to be forgotten.

But, I guess it is true, I do design in my sleep. Some of my best designs came to me as I slept, or more commonly, just as I am drifting off. Happened just last night, and I scribbled them both down on paper sometime this afternoon. If they stuck with me that long, they must be gold!

One of them is for a new project. I had another idea planned out, but this one looks better on paper I think, so it is a keeper. The other is a new design for my main site, but I do not have the time to implement it yet, so it has to get filed under my massive to do list. Roll it out in the new year I think.

I got lucky with these two, by having a use for them both. Often times I will come up with a concept, but it will not suit any project I am working on currently. In which case it gets jotted down on a small scrap of paper, and filed somewhere. Possible forgotten … most likely lost …

Good dreams, good dreams
