Sleepy Head Thoughts

How can you prove whether at this moment we are sleeping, and all our thoughts are a dream; or whether we are awake, and talking to one another in the waking state?
{Plato}



I think that I want to buy a house. With a big backyard and a porch and a hammock hung up in an old oak tree. Still in the city, but room for a big garden. Rocking chairs to sit in and drink sweet tea and gossip and listen to thunderstorms.

Or do I want a loft. Trendy and comfortable. No walls to even out the space between us. Big windows to look upon the city and daydream until dusk.

...still house/loft hunting...

Am I really old enough to be thinking about this? To consider a baby's room when choosing our perfect little nest. Our own place to clean and hang our memories up on the wall. To paint each room in vibrant colors. Extra room for our loved ones to cuddle up in when visiting. This is what I've always dreamed about... ever since I was little and playing house with friends down the street.
