What appeared to me was happening as that as I entered a dream, everything in my short term memory and the sum of all my thoughts would start to "collide".
The only dream I still recall was that I ended up in an office, which was a half assed recreation from a tv show I watched earlier that day. My boss was slamming a sledge hammer into the floor, doing some sort of construction. Being in a self reflective state though, I could see that this was not some profound meaningful statement... but I was remember some construction work on nearby road, and was partially thinking about emails my boss had sent me while I was out sick.
In other words, I had all these thoughts and memories floating around, and in my dream they were all intersecting in a freestyle type mashup. This happened to me several times, and by the end of my illness I was really able to see my thoughts go from a focused stream to a slowly deconstructing tangled web that would directly relate into my dream world's contents...
