Last night's dreams
Dream #1 - The dream within a dream. I dreamt that I'd just found out I was pregnant. The news made me nervous, but I was fine with it. Anyhow, in the dream, I "woke up" and reached over to shake Jason awake to tell him the news. He was all, "mmmhmmm, that's nice, honey," then went back to bed. And that was the end of that. But then I woke up for REAL worried that I had in fact woken my boyfriend up to announce my pregnancy. Upon inquiring in the morning, I had not. On the plus side-- while there's a slim to none chance I am currently pregnant, dream!me was dealing just fine. I think this bodes well for the future. Also, I blame this dream on the approximate 15% of my friendslist who are either currently up the spout or recently had a child.
Dream #2 - A stress dream that I have from time to time. While my reaction upon waking was "really? I am still having this goddamn dream?" I realized that I'd made a lot of progress in the dream and was taking the upper hand. There was of course residual emotional ickiness, but overall-- I made the decision that was right for me and I made it far before I had no other option. I was no longer the victim; I was in full control and setting my own terms. It was theraputic and reassuring. Go team subconsious.
