I just had my last graveyard shift! It's all regular shifts from now on for two weeks. Dream recall is up, and I've stopped killing people in my dreams.
This is partially because of a change in my emotional state when I go to bed (thanks to the podcast).
But looking back it also went together with me finishing a book trilogy I was reading during that time which was set during the roman empire, so I was reading a lot about blood and gore and I have a very vivid imagination.

One thing I noticed about my dreams lately though, is that they are very, how do I say this, busy? Or chaotic or stressfull. I can't quite express the feeling I get from them but I can say that they are the complete opposite of my waking life.
This is making it hard for me to really focus in dreams, I keep getting distracted because there is so much going on.

--Funny how I just finished a wall of text about how I don't understand the stressy dreams because of my relaxed waking life, but I allready found the problem while writing this. I suspect it's got something to do with a small drama in my social circle.
And here I thought it didn't affect me because it doens't concern me....
