I love dream interpretation. I have to admit that in general, I don't necessarily buy into the idea that there are universal meanings for various symbols. In grad school, it made sense to me that the best kind of professional interpretation was to say something along the lines of "Now, now how does that mad, rabid dog seem to fit with how you've been feeling lately? I know you've talked about how you feel constantly attacked by your mother-in-law. I wonder if this might be connected?"
But that's my former life.
Today, my very wonderful hubby had a few hours in between commitments and came home to spend some time with the baby and let this poor, tired mama take a nap. (BTW, around 1 am, the Kumquat decided she was FAMISHED and then just HAD to jump for about an hour. I finally dragged myself to bed around 3.) I had such a convoluted dream, which I feel like sharing for no good reason I can think of. It truly covered just about everything on my mind today. I thought I'd let you in on my guesses as to what all this randomness means in this Land of the Kumquat.

Plus, my
Suddenly, there was an emergency and sirens were blaring [heard the tornado sirens being tested yesterday when K & I were out and about] and frantically searched for my baby [stellan-related anxiety], since I was so sure something terrible would happen to her [sweet stellan]. Finally I heard her crying in the distance and woke up realizing that she was crying in the other room, where she was hanging out with her daddy.
Believe it or not, that's not all (I skipped the part about how I accidentally stumbled onto the set of Sports Center and tried to hide under desks and behind props to avoid the camera until I could figure out a way out), but I think that's probably more than enough insight into my brain for today. :)
In other news, we're making awesome progress on the nursery! I'm waiting until it's totally done to post pics, but here's a glimpse of what we've got going on. Oh yes, I'm crafty. (Are you so proud, Auntie Jill?)
