Makes sense. Sometimes you wake up and you're still in a semi-dreamlike state where your brain is switching over from unconscious to conscious. I know when I'm in that state, I often still feel like the dream is still real. I'm sure if I wrote it down right away, I'd be able to remember it.

But then again, what's the point of remembering your dreams? Like I guess it's a bit interesting but it's basically just the brain's way of reformatting and optimizing memory.

One cool thing about remembering dreams you've had is that some stories might turn into storylines. For the past few years there has been a dream story going on in my sleep. Every now and then randomly there's another dream that either continues or relates to that story. It's pretty fun, like following an interesting TV show and waiting for new episodes!
