when two dream worlds collide...

dreams, dreams, dreams...

i know there's a lot of thought about what dreams mean and i really should read up on what the "experts" are saying. or you just could say i'm an expert because i experience them every night. ha ha! anyhow, so last night i dreamed that an indian man was beating his wife and i expressed my disagreement with the way he was treating her so he decided that i needed to be taught a lesson. i ran and hid to get away from him. then next i'm dreaming that i'm the wife that gets beaten. shawn got mad at me and wanted to fight me, so he did and i got beat to a pulp. the pain of the injuries didn't hurt much, but the emotional hurt was more than i could bear. after he left, i went into a room and cried and cried. i was heartbroken. so shawn heard me sobbing in my sleep and in his sleepy state, the only way he could think of to wake me up was to ask me over and over again "what time is it, becca? what time is it becca?" i was a little perturbed when i woke up that he wouldn't just check himself but now that i think of it, he was probably dreaming of something like sleeping in and missing work and so that was the only appropriate response he could think of. ha! it makes me laugh now! anyhow, i told shawn very sternly never to beat me again and he just chuckled. my dreams are very vivid. :)

question. what are some funny/curious ways that you've carried your dream world over to the waking world?

*my sister-in-law asked if this was a picture of me and i realize i should've posted that i google image searched for a picture for "dreams" and found this. it's from this website: http://thereisnoafterlife.info/
i just think posts are so much more attention grabbing if they have a picture. :)

Are you pregnant? I think you should take a test... Because you told me that your Dream Shawn was not very nice to you when you were pregnant... soooooooooo....

haha! no, i'm not pregnant, but thanks for asking! maybe shawn's evil half lurks only in my dreams and i get the good shawn for keeps in real life.

lol! Those are some serious dreams. Funny too because Shawn's the most MELLOW easy going person I've ever known. Yet you dream of having a evil side. All I can say is be glad he's still in your bed when asking you what time it is in his sleep, he could be doing what they said he did as a little boy, sleep walking in the middle of the night down the main hwy in felt in nothing but his undies.

dedre - i've heard about shawn's sleep-walking habits and i have had him do weird things when he's sleeping but am glad i haven't had to go searching for him yet. :)

bethany - i've corrected my post and posted where i got this picture. i should've done that before and i apologize that i didn't. thanks for keeping me honest! :)
