Wonderland or Acid Trip?

I woke up this morning and couldn't decide if I wanted to get out of bed or not.. I had lots of dreams last night, mainly random things that I can't remember. What I don't get, is that if dreams are so important, why can't I remember most of the ones I have? I've spent a long time thinking about that. And I still don't have a good answer. Most of the people in the world use dreams to get away from reality. I can understand that. Having such a crappy life to have to invent an imaginary world to get away from the suckiness that is your reality. I'm guilty of it. But when I come back to the world, I completely forget the world I created. As weird as it is, it makes me think of Alice in Wonderland . 

Wonderland

Alice, as a child, falls into a rabbit hole, and tumbles into this wonderful, terrifying world of adventure. Sadly, when she leaves the world that she affectionately called Wonderland, she forgets about it, except in her dreams. Eventually making her believe that it was all a dream to begin with.  Then, when she's at her "engagement party", she sees a rabbit with a pocket watch and follows him. She falls down yet another rabbit hole, and believes she's having a dream. She's back in Wonderland, but she doesn't remember it. She believes it all to be a dream, or a really bad acid trip. In the end, she finds out her adventures there were all too real. Who would've thought?

Alice's Acid Trip?

Anyway, for some strange reason, I associate the dreams I can't remember with Alice's bad acid trip in Wonderland. Lots of color and funny adventures. But enough of me, back to Alice. Her father was a great man of idea that died sometime between trips to Wonderland. Her mother was a conformist who, unfortunately, was still alive and expected Alice to conform too. (She even flipped her lid that Alice wasn't wearing a corset to a party. Imagine!) Her sister was married to a cheating dirt bag. Alice was like her father who was known to believe six, SIX, unbelievable things before breakfast.

Alice meets all kinds of new people who look crazy, defeats the Jabberwocky, a terrifying dragon-like thing, then goes home and proceeds to tell everyone just where they can stick their conformist ideas. Ain't it great? So she saves the day and comes home and tells the loser who just proposed to find someone else. This time, she remembers Wonderland, or so we assume.
