sweet dreams (are made of this)

hi.  crazy girl here.  it has been an interesting week in dream land for me.  it's pretty common for me to remember my dreams, but my dreams this week have seemed really intense and emotional.

i had a dream the other night...maybe wednesday night...about a friend's dad dying.  in my dream i was absolutely heartbroken.  i woke up thinking, 'what the crap?'  not only was i concerned about that family for the rest of the day (and tempted to call them to make sure everything was ok), i had a haunting feeling that i had been having other stressful dreams, so i made a mental note to see if there was a pattern.

when i woke up this morning, i was mentally recounting my dreams and thought, 'yeah, there's definitely a disturbing pattern.'  except i got a two for the price of one deal last night.  first, i had a dream about my grandfather and that he was in the hospital and had been diagnosed with a bunch of maladies.  then i had another dream that i was on a cruise with some couples, was feeling down on myself (b/c i was again the only single person), somehow managed to fall overboard, was rescued by a crew member (who was channing tatum...which totally makes me giggle...a lot).  there was an instant connection between us, but because he was a crew member of the ship it was a forbidden. once me and channing tatum were interviewed by the captain of the ship about the overboard incident we couldn't be seen together.  although channing tatum didn't say much in my dream, so it might have been unrequited love (really?  this is my surprised face).  and while i was trying to explain the overboard incident, the captain turned on a tv and never heard the whole story.

this is apparently what happens when my real life conversations include such topics as death, cremation, boys, non-existant relationships, family relationships, hot guys, and cruises.  not all these topics were discussed at the same time nor with the same people.  apparently restlessness and hormones are manifesting themselves in some funny, funny ways!

this is what happens in my subconscious mind, people.  i'm afraid my conscious mind rarely makes much more sense.
