2 months today!

I just thought I'd see if this was even still here, and promise (again) to write my dreams down. They are fascinating to me and I like to look back on them. We'll see if I can keep up with it...

Couple from the week

One day this week I dreamed that I had a baby. We had a baby, and we left to go somewhere. I said to SB, "did you get the baby?" He said, "for what? I thought it would be happier staying home. do we have to take it everywhere?" I said, "I don't know, but I don't think you are suppose to leave them all alone."

Then I had a dream that we were missing graduation. I had to keep telling people, trying to convince them that it was like 7 or 8 hrs later than they thought. They would say, no look, it is still light outside. I would have to say, no, it stays light until TEN O'CLOCK!!! It was crazy. Once I finally convinced everyone, I had to pick up CG at TX Fairway so we could go, and when we got there (about 20 of us in a van) we had just missed Erin A and Aura A. Then I wanted to go out after graduation and SB said no, we didn't need to.

He asked me after that one why he's always a jackash in my dreams. I have no idea!

Sa-sa-sa-saturday nii-hiiiiight!

For some reason we were in the valley/on South Padre. In a house that looked (inside) like my Mimi and Papa's. But there were two of "Jan's bedroom", one that my mom and I were staying in and one my brother was staying in. We had been there visiting. I was doing a Pampered Chef show. (Apparently I was a consultant, I was trying to order new uniforms. they looked kind of like the ones my mom wore when she was a travel agent. You got a choice of about 1-3 tops, then you put them with skirts with matching material or khaki or navy skirt or pants. VERY mixy/matchy. Anyway, it was time to leave. I went to my Mimi's room to get my pearls that she had given me, then to look for my brother. Previously I had been irritated with him because we were in my Geo and he just got in the drivers side like he was going to drive because he was the man. I didn't care if he drove, but he should have asked me. Now, I keep harping that it is time to go! It is already evening and we have to drive all the way home (which I am guessing is Alvin). At some point I got really really upset because my Mimi had gone somewhere and wouldn't be back for a day or two, and I didn't get to say goodbye. Then, there was a place called Girl Time. They were like a party planner place for grown up girl slumber parties. I was going to plan one with all my girlfriends with nail appts, and spa time and the works. I was really excited about planning it, but was still running around screeching about how my brother needed to COME OOOOONN!!!! I don't even think I ever saw him. I just kept telling my mom to tell him to COME OOOONNN!!! "He's where?? In the shower?! argh, tell him to COOOMMME OOOONN!!!!!"

All I can think of regarding the origins here is:
It's time to go (back to the US)
I've been heavily into the Pampered Chef lately, but no idea what the uniform matchy matchy was about.
I was looking at albums last night and lingering on bachelorette party girlfriend pics. Need some girlfriend time.
My mom's side is having a reunion next weekend that I'm missing.

Stay tuned...

Still dreaming about the reunion…
In last night’s episode, I was in the back seat of my first car (the grey Buick) but it still belonged to my parents. They were in the front, and we were driving through Alvin. I was crying and we pulled up to a light. I rolled down the window to tell Tiffany Gray that I couldn’t come to the reunion because I had to go to something for my “dad’s company”. I specifically remember that because if you know me very well, you know that my dad never worked for a “company”. He always taught govt and history at ACC! Always. So, anyway, a little while later it is decided I can go. I put on the dress I wore in Betsy R. C’s wedding and go. (yes, it still fit…in the dream!) Stephen was there now, I guess we were staying with my parents, I don't know if we lived there or if my brother lived there. When I get to the reunion, (you know, it’s right there in Alvin, like in that “new Senior’s Center” that is 20 years old now or something) everyone is there. We are doing something like signing each other’s yearbooks, but there is something going on about making packets for each other (??) and I am making one for Tessa Gardner. Someone is singing karoke. Then Christy gets the microphone and gives a little speech about how she use to be very reserved and to herself, but now she loves the microphone. She explained that she stands up for what she believes in regarding her family. She isn’t in-your-face, but if you challenge her, she will tell you how it is. She finished what she was saying and left. I wanted to go with her, but then J.J. Shannon started singing karoke. I think the whole karoke scene was because before bed I watched Psych and the two main characters were undercover in a singing show like American Idol called Duos. Anyway, BIZ-R as usual! I hope these dreams cease by next weekend once it’s over!

oh, and I must not have been living with my parents, because the day after I was trying to get a Space A flight back to Germany and I was going to be in trouble if I didn't get one because my job (I was still at the G8) didn't approve for me to be gone past Monday.

Saturday night/Sunday morning

I dreamed I was backing up in a car (don't know which one) down the spiral driveway of a parking garage. When all of a sudden...WHAM! I hit the wall. Jarred awake and grumbled at the dream.

PMS. In a dream? yep.

There was a lot more to this dream than I can remember, but I was SO tired when I got up that it was fading really fast.

I was at someone's housing area, and we were working out, like seriously sweating working out. When we got finished, we went up to their apt, and the girl (kind of a mixture of several the spouses here)was talking about how Sandra Bullock is a newscaster now. I burst out crying and was screaming about how, "SEE??? WE MISS EVERY SINGE *#$%** THING!!!" and just going on and on like a crazy person like it was the biggest deal ever that Sandra Bullock became a newscaster and AFN didn't carry it. Then I said I had to go home right then. So I was collecting my things and started to leave and somehow I think I was trying to leave out the balcony but had to jump from one to the other and had all this stuff. Blanket, some clothes? I have no idea. So, I fall, that's the "falling part" of the dream. I have those periodically. I just fall and fall for a while. Once I land, SB and a couple other people walk up and we are talking and someone says something about how we had to spend that money. I said, "for what?" SB said, "oh, we called your brother and we were on the phone for about an hour and a half." Then I was screaming again about how could you call without me? and didn't you think I'd want to talk to him??? He tried to say something about how they had some business to discuss and it had already waited 90 days. Said it like that. 90 days. ???? Of course I'm all, "what kind of business? I can know! Stop trying to keep stuff from me!" etc.

There was also something in there where there was some fried chicken on a counter and I was trying to pick off crispy pieces of the outside. and trying to be quiet because my Mimi was asleep.

Kind of fuzzy

Memory of this one...

Part of it was about the reunion. I think my brain is working it out and being okay with not being there for the high school one or my mom's side family one. In the dream, I was at a kind of pre-reunion or coctail hour kind of thing. There were about 20 people there. Angie N, Bobby B, Tiffany G, Deb Lutz, and I think she was married to Roy Mallow or someone, maybe a compilation of him and a couple other people? anyway, I think all this is from the uploaded pics to the myspace group. It was people in those pics. So, we are at the get together and I remember saying, "Is this it? Is this all that is coming?" Also, my dad told me that at his 20 yr they got 200something of 279 there. Sounded great! I don't think we will get that high a percentage. They had theirs in an airplane hanger! How cool (and 60s-ish) is that? Anyway, I woke up not fretting about missing anything. So I think this is a good thing...
Also, I dreamed that SB told me we were being moved. Then he said...in 8 months. So I had to decide whether or not to stay at the G8, go on to the FRSA job, tell them I'd only be there for 8 mo if I did, or what? There was also some issue about how if we moved in 8 months we would only have 7 left oconus, so what would happen then? because they aren't suppose to move us twice in one year. I woke up kind of fretting about this. I think staying longer than our 451 days (per the counter on the blog!)is still a concern for dreaming Heather.
