hyuriah, the reason I avoid visually daydreaming: the image doesn't obstruct, replace, or overlay my sight, yet my eyes try—and try hard—to focus on it. which leads very quickly to strained muscles and a headache.
(and my dad's trying to guilt me into talking to my cousin's GF instead of going to bed. yeah, right.)
it's weird, though. it's like a ghost-image to the side of my sight. and all of my senses have this same sort of otherspace, where sometimes I call up perceptions from memory; sometimes I call up incredibly real perceptions from outside my experience; and sometimes things just show up there, with no apparent trigger or reason.
it's very disturbing to see a person, hear the tiny sounds and smell the tiny scents of their presence, feel with your hackles that they're right there watching you—and have those very same senses saying to you that, no, there's nobody there; you're alone. even more disturbing, in a way, than a similar "vision" regarding your own death.
I'm going to dream tonight, and it's going to be weird.
