Still dreaming

Still dreaming. I had another one last night, after nearly a year. This time we were both students at Emporia. I was sharing a dorm room with him and some other guy, sleeping on the floor so I could save money. I was trying to be cool, a friend, and then he told me he was dating Jen, who was a single mom in the dream. What did she have that I didn't? (I think my justification for being jealous was that she doesn't have any many piercings as I do--though now awake, I don't know if that's true).

Still trying to be cool, and wait it out, we walked to the cafeteria, and ran into Gabe on the way, who I knew I could date in an instant if I just said the word. But I knew it was poor form to hook up with the cousin of your crush, and besides, maybe Jen was a passing fancy.

And then I woke up, and was still actively jealous of Jen for a few moments until I remembered the real world.

That is so funny. Even more so because I had this thing for Gabe, but never for your crush. And in your dream it's the opposite.

Oh, Gabe. He and I have a sordid, sordid history.

(Now THAT'S something I never thought I'd get to say!)

Sounds intriguing. Ours was only one night of making out and watching a thunderstorm roll in.

Now Jason is another story.
