For the first time in several months, today I woke up with no dream recall. Even though it's Saturday, my sister had to wake up early, so she had set an alarm. We sleep in the same room and I'm a light sleeper, the smallest sound wakes me up, while she sleeps through everything. Needless to say, when her alarm went off, I woke up with a start, and it took her forever to dismiss it, leaving me wide awake and with a pounding heart. This, plus the fact that yesterday I went to bed late and a bit tipsy after having dinner with friends, resulted in no dream recall.

Three days a week she wakes up before me, and when her alarm wakes me up I always see my dream recall decrease quite a lot. I think I'll get used to setting an alarm for me 5 or 10 minutes before hers.
