I woke up this morning and, as always, “reviewed” last night's dreams. I have extremely vivid, detailed dreams and always remember every last detail. Always. Sometimes this is a good thing (when I am a rockstar wife). More often than not, a bad thing (when I give birth to a kitten and the umbilical cord is coming out of my mouth and I am pleading with the nurse to cut it because “it doesn't look good”). Then there are the dreams that verge on interfering with real life.
As of late I have been dreaming about a variety of guys I have liked in the past. I have no idea why. It's not like I am still hooked on any of them. In most cases I wouldn't touch any of them with a 10 foot pole and in the very special cases, I think I need to seriously reevaluate my standards *insert dry heave here*. The problem with these dreams is that I usually wake up and feel like I LIKE these jokers again. I sure as hell wouldn't act on it but it's like I wake up with a ridiculous teenage crush. WTF? What is this? I know I have been single for a very, very.....very long time but Jesus...is my subconscious telling me that I have to recycle? Because that ain't gonna happen. I'd rather end up a glitter covered spinster with a flask in her housecoat pocket who drones on about how cool she used to be “back in ____(insert year here)”.
I wish we had the ability to turn the dream channel if we don't like what is floating around in our heads. I mean, I often wake up a few times a night but nine times out of ten, when I fall back asleep, my dream picks up where it left off. I know a lot of people would probably love to have this “gift” but it is REALLY annoying...especially when I am making-out with some mullet-sporting, skin tight jeans wearing yahoo from 1989. Trust me, if I could regift this ability to someone else...God dammit I would.
Anyway, this is what is going on in my head at the moment. I look so forward to hittin' the hay tonight *rolling eyes*. I swear...a lobotomy is looking more and more tempting all the time.
You know you love me,
