...a dreamer

so the other night, i dreamed i was drinking a diet cherry coke, and i didn't even know diet cherry coke existed! it was really good, and in my dream i was like "dang, i should start drinking diet cherry coke!" ...so, back in real life, at the grocery store i discovered that diet cherry coke does, indeed, exist! i got some.. and it's not as good as it was in my dream =/ oh well, haha!!

i'm a big dreamer. and i really feel sorry for people who don't dream, or don't remember their dreams. it's almost like living in another world, for me! i have several dreams every night, and i find that i have the most vivid dreams in the mornings, if i wake up and fall back asleep a lot.. i also remember my dreams for a long time. i guess because i think about them a lot, but i can remember a dream i had when i was somewhere around 5 or 6 years old.. and i remember random dreams through the years.. it's weird. there's really no rhyme or reason to my dreams. sometimes i can recognize where a dream came from, like from something that happened during the day, or something i've been thinking about. and sometimes i have completely random movie dreams.. they're just like movies, they have plots and characters and everything! sometimes i'm in the movie, and sometimes i'm just watching it.. and sometimes i go back and forth from being in the movie to watching it.. it's nuts! i really love dreaming! haha :) i also have lucid dreams pretty often.. which is when you recognize in your dream that you're dreaming. those are really crazy, but i love them! sometimes they end too quickly, though.. i usually end up waking up after i realize i'm dreaming.. bummer!

this past year i've had a lot of recurring dreams.. i say this past year because i don't remember having them very often when i was younger.. anyway, my most recurring dream is that i'm back in high school, and i drove to school and the day is over, i go out to the parking lot to get in my car and leave and i have no idea where i parked my car. i always think to myself (in my dream) "man, i don't even remember parking my car this morning! what the hell?" ..so i end up walking all over the parking lot until eventually i find my car.. parked in some random spot and there's always some weird obstacle, like one time i was apparently driving some huge SUV and one of my tires was up on this huge rock, so half my car was in the air.. it was really weird.. i just got in and got it out and drove off... and one time i was parked between two cars who had parked WAY too close to me! i don't remember how i got in, but i couldn't get in through the drivers side door because the car was literally inches from mine! haha.. i have no idea what's up with that dream?!

then i have the dreams that help me make decisions, which is weird, haha! like my diet cherry coke dream.. this year with my tax return i really wanted to buy a louis vuitton speedy bag.. the speedy bag comes in different "sizes", i guess you could say.. the speedy 20, speedy 25, 30, 35 and 40. so since i like carrying a suitcase everywhere i go, i decided i wanted the speedy 35.... i thought about it for a few months and was really second guessing, thinking maybe the 35 would be too huge and i should get a 30.. (yes, these are things that i really worry over for months, it's sad, i know..) so anyway, one night i dreamed that i ordered a speedy 30.. i got it in the mail and it was hideous and small.. it didn't even look like what it was supposed to, it was just weird looking and in my dream i was like "dang, this is way too small! i should have ordered the 35!!" ...needless to say, the next day i happily ordered the speedy 35. it came in the mail a week later and was the perfect size! i adore it! what a happy ending! :D

HAHA! ...just so you know, this post is not a joke and that last part is a true story! haha :D
i hope y'all have sweet dreams!
