Only in dreams...

I dream, primarily, about these few things:

1) Steamy make-outs with mostly actors and the occasional real guy. (Robert Downey, Jr; Jude Law; and that guy, "Boy," from the Coco Chanel Lifetime movie are pretty good kissers, by the way).

2) Shopping. And often, disappointment of not having the particular items procured follows like the morning regrets of a night of chocolate over-indulgence. I always draw the clothes or shoes. Someday I will hire someone to make them.

3) Fighting. Especially when I was in Tae Know Do. I would constantly dream that people would jump out at me and I would proceed to kick their martial-arts a.

4) Dinosaurs. I know. Totally embarrassing. But, I think "Jurassic Park" had a disturbingly lasting effect on my subconscious.

5) Dying. I am being stalked by a ruthless killer, who always eventually kills me. Aside from the panicked repenting I do right there at the end, it isn't too bad. More like going numb from the gunshot wound or whatever. So, yeah, you don't die in real life if you die in your dreams. So, the short film I made in college was all for naught, I already knew the answer to that question.

6) Working. I spend a sickening percentage of my nights working extra eight-hour shifts for which I never see a penny.

7) Spiders. I always wake up thinking I can see one crawling across my pillow. Ick! Makes me shiver even now.

8) Someone (I don't know who) is in bed next to me. I look over there, half-asleep, not knowing who it is, and not so worried that some stranger is in my bed, but more so about the fact that I am not wearing a bra. I have woken up literally going through my bra drawer on several occasions.

9) Lately, republican politicians. We are always at parties. I had a great dream about me and George W, in which he ordered a "whiskey and a coke" (do people actually drink that?) and I was standing next to him, and repeated, laughingly, "whiskey and coke?!" and he turned, so happy that I had (he thought) just ordered the same drink as he had. We then flirted a lot, and I may or may not have said "I'll be your Monica!"
And just last night I dreamt that Sarah Palin and I were at a party, became fast friends, and she proceeded to give me man advice.

10) Falling in love. Cheesy, I know. And not so much me falling in love as some amazing guys (who usually don't exist in real life, excepting Jude Law) falling crazily in love with me. And being all romantic. And I don't usually like romance, but in dreams, it's not so bad.

So, what will I dream about tonight? I don't know, but I've always wanted to hang out with Ronald Reagan. Or, maybe I feel more like kissing Adrien Brody...
