**Describing Perth as to how it most often appears in my dreams**

**Perth CBD/City of Perth**

Where St George’s/Adelaide Terrace starts is where the CBD usually starts for me in my dream. Many of the street/road names are the same, the ones that I can remember ie St George’s/Adelaide Terrace, Wellington Street, Barrack Street, Hay Street, Victoria Street, William Street etc. But that’s pretty much it in terms of similarities or recognisability. Frankly it probably looks more like Birnin Zana, the city in Wakanda than it does the Perth CBD. :P

Those streets aren’t the paved/asphalt streets in the real-world Perth, but are narrower with cobblestone and more windy. There's trams/light rail which actual real-world Perth doesn't have.

Street signs and shop names used to be in Chinese, English and sometimes German for whatever reason. However since I’ve learned some Noongar language in the past 5 years or so, Noongar is included often now and even replaces the English sometimes ie “Mandjarli-miya” (Bread-house) for Bakery/Patisserie. “Mangka-miya” (Tea-house) for well Teahouse or Café. Some real world Noongar names show up because I’ve seen them so many times in the past few years like Derbal Yerigan (The Swan River), Moort-ak Waadiny (Wellington Square), Matagarap (the section of river near the Optus Stadium which also has a bridge named after it) and Boola Bardip (The WA Museum)

This week I had some of the wildest, most vivid dreams.

On three different nights, the dreams were so immersive that I could feel sensations like rain and wind. Emotionally, they were incredibly raw. I woke up one morning crying, and another morning, livid. I often have lucid dreams, but these felt more real.

I kept thinking, what’s changed? After some reflection, I realized the only thing different about those nights was that I took 1000mg of Tylenol (acetaminophen) right before bed. I’d been taking it regularly for a few weeks due to a serious injury, but recently had stopped, except for those three nights.

Curious, I did some digging and found out that taking Tylenol before bed has actually been linked, for some people, to more vivid or emotionally intense dreams. 😮 I had never heard of this before!

Just wanted to share in case anyone else has noticed something similar. The power of these dreams has really stayed with me and given me a lot to reflect on.

In a beautiful old theater, watching a show. The set ends with the artist climbing to the balcony where i am sitting. we hug, as is the custom, but i dont know who is this person. A pile of paper work is laid out on my table: they are smiling and glowing as they tell me "the secret" . i forget it immediately.

Today's dreams:

1. A D&D "battle royale", except instead of PvP it's solving NPC problems around a densely packed city

2. A "horror story" about a detached shadow seeking its long dead body. More sad than scary

3. Small-town slice-of-life where a youkai genius locus lives. A few of us can talk to it, and it's cranky but lonely

I had a dream that a horse ate half of one of my house slippers and most of my phone. I knew it was a horse because one of it's teeth came out and was embedded in what was left of my slipper.
