As opposed to writing in a journal why is there no mention of those 4"x 4" little tape recorders. Like the ones students take to lectures.
It would be a lot easier to reach over and push record than to turn on a light, get a pen, and write a dream down.
Is it not good for dream recall to speak out loud?
I have a sound recorder on my computer. If I could figure out a way for it to run the duration of the night, I could just wake up and talk as the microphone would record it. -that would be cool!
