So for over a week now I've been getting very little sleep. I think I'm averaging around 4 hours a night. I'm one of those people that needs, no, demands, at least 8. When I do finally fall asleep I have the craziest dreams. I was telling Shannon about one of my dreams yesterday and she got the biggest kick out of it (I'm glad you're enjoying my insanity so much Shan) and wanted to hear about my next one. So I decided to tell everyone in the hopes that someone out there can tell me what the hell it means! So please, analyze away...
Hubby and I are at some tropical spa-like place and are going to take a swim. I'm walking through a jungle until I get to a narrow river that is only say 8 feet deep and has koi fish swimming in it. So I get in the water and am relaxing. I'd like to say here that I looked DAMN good in my swimsuit! No baby fat at all! Anyway, I don't see Hubby anywhere and for some reason start to get scared. I start calling out for him when suddenly I realize that a massive white snake is like a foot away from me. It's some type of water snake that is at least 12 feet long and pure white. It's looking right at me and I'm trying to swim around it very slowly, the whole time hoping that it doesn't kill me. I'm whispering Hubby's name and I finally see him a little farther down the river. I make it almost completely by the snake when Hubby starts telling me that I should be careful because those kind of snakes are dangerous. Does he help me get completely past the snake? No. Instead he waits until I'm right next to him to pull me out of the water. Once we're out he gives me a hug. Suddenly my mother-in-law comes out of nowhere. Then my sister-in-law comes up. They look very upset and tell us that there is no time to be doing that because we need to go inside and help them with the shopping. So we follow them down this jungle trail and walk inside this HUGE grocery store warehouse (think Costco on steroids). Suddenly it's imperative that I find a box of those entertaining crackers (you know the ones I'm talking about, some of the crackers are shaped like butterflies). I'm looking everywhere for these crackers. The store is unbelievably huge and I'm practically getting lost in the produce section. The whole time I'm looking my mother-in-law is right there preaching to me about how I need to find the crackers. (What, she can't look?) I finally find one box of the stupid crackers but yet I'm still looking for something. I turn the corner to go to the next aisle and where am I at? A giant refrigerated section of alcohol. The aisle is dark so it's hard to see much but all of the alcohol is in big containers similar in size to kegs but they look like the normal bottles you'd buy. I'm calling for Hubby wanting to show him what I found but he can't hear me. I'm walking further down the aisle and it's getting darker. The only light is coming from inside the cases. I open a case and I'm reaching for a big bottle of something when....
I wake up. Sucks that it ends that way but blame it on the kid. He picked that moment to let me know he was awake. So what the hell does it mean?

Wow - what an involved dream! I have no idea what it means but I'm with Shannon - you should blog those more often!!! You should get one of those dream interpretation books and check all of that out!!!
Is there anything stressing you out right now that could be causing the lack of sleep? Any weird eating patterns or other things you've changed in your routine recently?
At least you know that Kenji will come babysit for you if you need a middle-of-the-day nap. :)
Good LORD! Maybe you should lay off the booze before bed!! :)
