Waking up Laughing
Feb. 27th, 2007 11:38 amIn the wee hours last night, I literally woke up laughing. I had just had a dream which, while pleasant, was also absurd. And of a familiar enough pattern that I recognized it and laughed myself awake.
It's a fairly new pattern, seems to have started some months ago, and happens once every few weeks or so. In it, I find out (directly or indirectly) that person X now regrets having broken up with me, and wants to try getting together again. The identity of person X varies from dream to dream, or sometimes even during a single dream, but they are always real people I know. They also always have the following two qualities:
*) Someone I have a crush on.
*) Someone I have never *actually* dated.
Apparently, my subconscious refuses to accept that I never dated them, or something. Or it might just be an expression of the way Boys constantly live in Hope :-)
