Well, last night I was taking a ride on the back of a flying dolphin up to the place where the sky people live, but when I got there I was attacked by rapidly growing prickly vines. I remember trying a number of strange words, which must have been spells of some kind, to protect myself from the vines. Not very conlangish, but I *have* had dreams about reading books about languages, including some about conlangs. In my dreams all the Teach Yourself books still have blue covers. Until fairly recently I've had dreams about the old days when I used to do all my conlanging on paper. But I never remember any of the words when I wake up.
