A nightmare

I had one of THOSE dreams last night. Ladies, you know what I'm talking about.

That's right. A preggo dream. In other words, not a dream, but a nightmare!!!

I was in a hospital and looked down and saw my obviously repugnant gut, and the first thing I thought was 'why the fuck didn't I get an abortion?!', which of course is what I would do IRL. I didn't feel any joy or excitement, I just thought 'they need to hurry up and get this thing the fuck out of me so my stomach can deflate and I can start trying to get rid of the stretch marks!'.

My partner was next to me and I said to him, 'we ARE adopting this thing out'. He replies 'no, I want to keep it!' (he's also CF IRL, but a wannabreed in my dream, s). I said 'Fine, you wanna keep it? Then YOU be a SAHD and YOU raise it, because I want nothing to do with it! I want to keep working and travel and I have no interest in parenting!'.

Finally, my brain decided to fast-forward a year or whatever, and I was the one who'd ended up holding the baybee, burping it etc, basically doing all the work while my man was partying. As so often happens in reality.

Talk about a nightmare!!! HELL ON EARTH!!

First class nightmare.

I dreamed i was in a car wreck with Robert Downey Jr.

Good Lord. I watched "The Grizzly Man Diaries" last nite on the Animal Channel and then had dreams all night that there were bears in our house. LOL

Better a bear than a baby,KFLL!

I too, have had baybee nightmares before and always wake up in a cold sweat.I also dream I am being attacked by tigers, bitten, scratched, pounced, etc......but that's probably because I co-sleep with 6 cats and they DO bite, use the bed as a playground, use my body as a trampoline, etc....during their nocturnal playtime. I wake up with the scratch marks to prove it. However, I would rather have to get treated for cat scratch fever and corneal abrasions than wake up with a swollen belly, the sound of a wailing kyd, the smell of baybee shit, or leaky boobs. eeeewwwwwwwwwwwww

Eek. I have had only one dream of having a baby, and that was, oh, at least ten years ago...but I remember it all too clearly. Ugh.

How do we stop those baby-related nightmares, so we remain CF in our dreams, too?

I dreamed I was in Las Vegas playing blackjack, dating Adrian Grenier from Entourage and all the wannabreeds there were jealous.. Those jagerbombs give me cool dreams everytime! Bet you'd like to trade!
I HAD to drown my sorrows after the Cubbies lost.

I once had a "sexy" dream (nightmare?) involving Dan Akroyd! Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!

(looks up Jagermeister out of sheer sheltered-Midwestern ignorance...I never drink liquor...)

Oh wow, I see that Jagermeister is (marketed at least as) a "digestif," or "stomach bitters"--cool. I am very interested in nostrums and ol'-timey "medicines" so it's cool to see there are still some analogues to Lydia Pinkham's Vegetable Compound out there...

OK, back to dreams.
