One more thing from this weekend....

I forgot to blogg on my dreams from last night, which seem worth documenting to me for some reason.

I dreamt that I was living with two men in a large house with hard wood floors. I am a little older, Max is off at college. Neither of the men are at all familiar to me. One is obviously my boyfriend, dark haired (why do men always have dark hair in my dreams?) and major five o clock shadow, kind eyes, softly spoken and very tall, considerably taller then myself. Probably at least 6' 4" or more.

The other man, is younger by about 5 years or so, possibly my boyfriends brother. I'm not sure, but they are very familiar with one another like family tends to be.

It is a Monday morning, I am getting ready for work and I am running late. I emerge from the shower and am dressed, hair and make up done perfectly. You would never know that I'd just taken a shower, but there steam rising from all around behind me when I open the door. I am quite stunning in this dream. I am wearing a dark green knee length broomstick skirt, lined with black velvet and a white tank top with a black velvet vest. My eyes are huge and a bluish violet color. I am tall and lean and even slightly tan. My hair is huge, almost like a spiral perm, but it's very very long so the curls aren't to kinked up. Kind of like mermaid hair. Totally larger then life and exaggerated idealistic version of myself.

When I open the door from the bathroom, my boyfriend and his *brother* are watching something on a desktop computer sitting on a desk in the room directly in front of me. They are laughing and pointing at something on the screen and giving me a hard time for making us all late for work. Between us are literally hundreds and hundreds of boxes of shoes. I begin to dig through the shoe boxes frantically because we are REALLY REALLY late, it's like 9 AM already and I still don't have my shoes on! Except, I can't find the shoes I want to wear that match what I am wearing. There is a very distinct pair I am looking for obviously and when I do find the shoes I want to wear, there is only one of them and then I can't find the matching shoe. I am really upset about this, the boys are poking fun at me and asking why can't I just pick a pair of black shoes, it doesn't' matter which pair right?

Finally, because we are all so late for work, I settle on a pair of shoes that aren't exactly what I'd pictured wearing with my outfit that day but fit and are comfortable and look nice enough and at least they match right? My boyfriend comes up to me and says "You've never looked more beautiful to me."

And that's the end of it.

What the?

OMG! I got it! The shoes represent men, fish in the sea (I say this cause of the "mermaid" hair. The boyfriend is on the other side seemingly wait for you. You sift through the shoes looking for the right one. One shoe is you, the other is your mate - the perfect (if you will) match for your outfit (your life). The brother (society or what have you) insists you just get on with it and pick one that will simply suffice. The time (being late) represents society's notion that you should have already found the perfect shoe. You settle for something that somewhat goes with your outfit, but it is in fact settling.

But, through all of this disaster, your boyfriend still finds you beatiful despite it all.

YAY! Perhaps a stretch.

I was thinking along the same lines, that my subconcious is having a lot of fun at my expense:)

I also think there is significance around the man with dark hair thing in all of my dreams, the only male that never has dark hair in my dreams is Max.
