Strange Dreams
Last night I had the oddest dream that I took a last minute vacay to Bahrain with a group of friends. We checked in to our hotel which, while very nice inside, was right smack in the middle of an unstable and undeveloped area (note: I know that's not Bahrain in reality, but this was how it was in my dream). We didn't bother looking at our rooms, left our luggage in the lobby, and set off exploring in a jeep or van or bus - I don't recall which.
The roads were so muddy and full of holes that we stalled and decided to hop out and walk. As we trudged through the mud, I suddenly remembered that I had forgotten to notify my employer and take leave for the trip which lead to a major freak out and me considering flying all the way back home immediately. On the other hand, I was hesitant to leave - muddy potholes and all. The dream ended with a situation I can only attribute to reading Black in Cairo (one of my fave blogs) and watching female reporters cover the Egypt uprising recently. We encountered a man beating a woman with his shoe and I confronted him. The dream ended with us squaring off to fight.
Laaaaawd! What does it all mean?!
