Ever have a nite when you seem to dream all night long?
Whenever, I have something important coming up – I don’t always get the sleep I need, and the sleep I get is usually full of dreams.
My girl friend and I have season tickets to the broadway series in our town. Today, is one of the shows – Legally Blonde. We both have been looking forward to seeing it. My girl friend hurt herself recently, and is having difficulty with pain and walking. So she decided that she’d better stay home today, rather than risk doing more injury. So I set about looking for someone to go with me to the show. Being New Years weekend, most people had other plans and were not available to go. DH suggested one of our other neighbors – I thought she was out of town, but when I called, she was home and said she would be delighted to go. That’s great. I pick her up at noon, we go into the city, stop at my girl friend’s who has the tickets and we are on our way.
Now I’ve set the stage. Before an important event, I should remember to take an aspirin before going to bed. It helps me to sleep, and I’m not real groggy in the morning, like some of the other things I take.
Woke up at 1:30 to go to the bathroom, went back to bed, and just laid there. Ok, here we go – now I’ll be awake the rest of the night and so tired, I won’t be able to go to the show.
After looking at the clock and seeing 2:30 – yep, an hour already, I finally dozed off. I dreamed that I went into the city to visit someone, forgetting I was supposed to pick up my neighbor at noon for the show. In a panic I woke up. Haha – NOT, I woke up in the dream and realized that I had dreamed I went into the city, only to realize that I had indeed gone into the city to visit someone, forgetting to pick up my neighbor – now someone has stolen my car tires, I have no way of getting back home to pick up my neighbor, and I had to end up calling DH and having him call the neighbor. Hey I told you this was weird.
At 5:30 the cat woke me up! I could have slept another 2 hours after all that running around. How did the cat wake me up? We have a latch on the bedroom door to keep the cats out at night, as they think it’s play time. So our little one is rattling the door, trying to get someone to come out and play.
Sigh… it’s going to be a long day, hope I don’t fall asleep during the show!
