I dream in code every so often. I've had to get up in the middle of the night to scribble it down too. =)

Worse, I've dreamed in relational tables over and over. I actually had a recurring DB dream that haunted me for days till I actually got up one night and punched it all into an email to my work address.

When I got to work the next day, there was this incredibly fsck'ed up mail from me with only five tables in it and weird names, self-linked keys and more. My current design was over 9 tables and seriously non-normalized. Three weeks later, when I completed the design I went back and looked, and sure enough, I should have used the dream spec. It would have been much easier to use. Only it took me three weeks awake to get near what I had there. And I missed a simple generalization that would have reduced three tables from the final design. *sigh*

Follow your dreams I say, or at least try and take notes!
