Our apartment in Taguig is within an easy walk of Laguna Lake which is rather large and an important source of fish. Some of the people living around it farm plants and animals, last time my wife pointed out where the banana and papaya and cassava and suchlike were growing, and I saw chickens and whatnot among the small houses on stilts. On our way out to walk there, on our street there were nine goats waiting on the sidewalk, just sitting around. Later, walking beside the lake, we also saw a couple of frogs.

Last night's dreams included something about leaving hurriedly in a car to protect a child from a man who was coming. There was also some poetic spellcasting that was involved with making a clever bird larger. It wasn't known that the bird was flying high at the time of this, it ended up having to make an undignified water landing.

I sense the influence of The Sandman (2022) in the above. I enjoyed it and look forward to another season someday. My hazy memory of the graphic novels has Dream being a little more interestingly cunning in overcoming challenges, and the stories being even more imaginative, but I could be mistaken in those, and I am glad that the material could be decently adapted at all.
