A Perchance to dream . . .

I should be sleeping right now, but I had to write one more entry since I'll be out of touch until sometime on Friday.

Day Camp is still moving along, but it sucks to know that I'm a boring Girl Scout leader. Today I started helping the girls with a badge I thought they could earn. Unfortunately this afternoon when they were rating the "yeah's" and the "yuck's", my badge-earning activity was considered a "yuck" by pretty much everyone in the troop.

What what it I said yesterday about not running a unit next year?

Oh well, as they say, No good deed ever goes unpunished . . .

Anyway, the reason for my post title is my hope that I will actually sleep tonight and not be plagued by my "weird dreams". Last night I had a hard time falling asleep, but when I finally did (sometime after 1 AM), all I had were these strange dreams.

The irony is, last week when I was working at Starbucks, I was talking to a couple of co-workers about our favorite psychology theorists (one of the other guys just graduated from my Alma Mater with a Psych degree too). I told him I liked Jung because of his theories on dreams.

A lot of my life is played out in my dreams . . . like the time I was getting my wisdom teeth out, but made the mistake of watching Nightmare of Elm Street with one of my best friends. All of the sudden I was having nightmares about Freddy. However, when I figured out it was because I was stressed out about getting my teeth out . . . the nightmares stopped.

Then there's my reoccuring tornado dreams that always happen when I'm particularly anxious (although I haven't had one of those in a while!).

The thing is, I do have good dreams, I just wish I would remember them as well as the bad. And hopefully once this week is over, sweet dreams will be filling my head again.

Oh, one "yeah" for me today . . . I got to make my first lanyard in 20 years! WHOO-HOO

Hope the rest of the week is all "yeah's" and no "yuck's"!
