I used to have dreams where I was in the house where I grew up and someone was trying to get in, and I had to lock all the doors, only the back door wouldn't quite lock (which was true in real life). I'd always try to scream "help" but it would just come out like a tiny little sigh. I'd always wake up in a panic. Then once I actually SCREAMED in the dream, and in real life, and that was the end of that dream.
I also have dreams about leaving my palm pilot case somewhere. It has EVERYTHING in it - credit cards, money, library card, driver's license, not to mention my palm pilot. I dream I leave it somewhere (which I tended to do in real life before I broke down and started carrying a fucking purse. Why don't women's clothes have better pockets???) and when I find it it's empty, and I just feel so deflated and sad.
Why can't I have GOOD recurring dreams, like eating chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream, naked, in a tropical lagoon?
