Crazy Dream

I had the craziest dream last night. I dreamed I was someone else. I mean I think I was me but nothing like me. I know that doesn't make much sense, but isn't that typically how dreams work? In my dream I was a cop (this alone is strange because it's never been a career I've ever considered & nor would I). Not only was I a cop, but I was a detective of some sort. My boss was Vince Vaughn (of course he was a cop too not a celebrity). I wasn't married, I didn't know my husband and during my dream, I started sleeping with my boss (Vince Vaughn - not a horrible concept, but strange because I've never been terribly keen on him). Also, I was apparently a drinker in this dream (I don't remember the last time I had a drink). In my dream, while off duty, I went to a party (I don't think I've been to a party since 1989 and even then didn't drink in excess). I got pretty drunk and decided to walk home from the party. My home was not here in England or in New Jersey. I apparently lived somewhere in California. Not only that, but I was quite thin and wore very small clothing. My skirt was way too short and my heels were a bit too high. I digress... Anyway, on my drunken way home, I ran into my boss (Vince Vaughn) and his partner (who was the tall brother on Everybody Loves Raymond - REALLY weird). They were just getting off duty and pulled up next to me for some flirtatious banter (that's a lot like me - minus the tiny skirt, drunken state and cop/celebrity thing). They found my purse at the party (which oddly, was pink and satin - I'm starting to sound like I dress like some sort of prostitute aren't I?...) and brought it to me. At which point, Vince Vaughn got out of his car and I took him home (I am such a slut). The next day, I had to call out of work because my back was killing me (must have been some night). At some point after calling out of work, I went to the liquor store (drinking yet again) and on my way back up to my California apartment, I ran into my boss who said in a tongue in cheek kind of way that he'd be over after work to see how 'my back' was doing (as if there was nothing wrong with me and I stayed home just to apparently get drunk) to which I replied 'My back really is killing me, but you can come over anyway (I have to admit this is a bit like me because I've been known to fight through the pain in the name of a little fun).
That's when I woke up. The funny thing is that I woke up with my back actually really killing me. I woke Wayne up to tell him about my dream and asked him 'what do you think it means'? He sleepily said - 'you don't love me anymore' (apparently being sarcastic) turned over, and went back to sleep.The funniest part about it all is that my husband has become so used to my crazy dreams that he's just no phased anymore.

Ok, that was wierd. It sounds like you connected a few things from reality and fantasy. Your back hurting was intruding on your dream. I have had that happen a few times. A couple of night ago, my sister was visiting from Missouri for her husbands uncle's funeral. That night I had a dream that I was at my SISTERS funeral! It was strange. I saw her in the casket and was very emotional so I hugged her body and she gave me a hug back! That is when I woke up. Seeing her in a casket was bad enough, but when her dead body hugged me I freaked!!!

Fight Club for Five Year Olds - Part 2

The other mother and I went into the school to meet with the teacher and the assistant head.  We both let them know how upset we were that we were not informed that our children were sent to the office and how much we were against the children being allowed to play fighting games on the playground.  I told them I wouldn't allow it at home and I'm really unhappy that it's being allowed at school.  They admitted it was a problem and explained that they are planning to introduce a a scheme to teach the children to play in a safe way.  They will be calling it 'Super Hero Training'.  They plan to give out capes & masks out to children who behave well as rewards at playtime.  They will have assemblies where they will teach the children to play fighting games without making contact.  I find this to be absurd.  The problem has gone on to long and I doubt they will be able to teach little children to change their games when they have sixty other childr...

Attitude adjustment...

It's been a while since I blogged regularly. I guess I've been going by the rule - if you don't have anything nice to say - don't say anything at all. I hate 'woe is me' type entries and for the last month or so, I've been really down and haven't had anything good to say. I think it started with the news that Aniela (my fellow expat girlfriend) was moving back to the US and was exacerbated by the incident with Wayne's cousin and the flare up of my condition (along with a general feeling of homesickness & loneliness). I was really depressed for quite a few weeks there and haven't been doing much more than going to the gym and other random things to keep me busy during the day. I haven't even worked on my web classes (in any serious way) in weeks (probably because I can't concentrate when I'm in pain - never mind get very motivated). I'm not so down anymore. Maybe it's the sunshine. Maybe it's the fact that I'...

Friday Night with Jonathan Ross

Did anyone see Friday Night with Johnathan Ross last night? (for those of you in the US - it's a British R-Rated, Jay Leno type show) He had on the actor Dominic Monaghan (who plays Charlie on Lost). While discussing the show, Dominic (who I really liked before last night) said the problem with the cast of Lost is that there are too many bloody Americans. To Which Jonathan Ross replied, 'Isn't that the problem with the world'? The audience roared with laughter and applauded (so did my husband as if he's not married to one of those bloody Americans and laying on the couch with her watching the damned show). It didn't stop there. they went on to talk about how much it annoys them that we destroy the language etc etc etc... It was yet again, another example that leads me to believe that this type of attitude is the general feeling that all people in this country seem to have. Wayne says I'm wrong, but I sometimes wonder if he too shares this opinion. ...
