Let's just get this out in the open once and for all, because I feel like it's something everyone should be aware of:
Recounting a dream you had in detail is interesting to approximately no one in the universe, unless a) the dream is at least 60% about the person to whom you are relating it (and even then, it's debatable), or b) you are Martin Luther King, Jr.
There I said it.
... or c) it is as funny as this dream: http://fillingbypilling.blogspot.com/2008/01/werewolf-baptism.html
ReplyDeleteBwahahaha yes. Leighanna's dream(s) should be noted as an important exception to this rule.
ReplyDelete...or d)you are going to write 4+ novels about that vampire. Then please do explain in detail....and don't ever stop.
ReplyDeletewere you around for the long-ass dream conversation at dinner club tonight? i can't remember if it happened before or after you left. it was excruciating.
ReplyDeleteI'm really glad that I was pointed out as an exception, otherwise I would have been a big lame-o. In my defense, it was at least 60% about Anne Lee and her kid, which means 10% of my reading audience was directly involved. There's some stats for you.
ReplyDeleteI just recalled a time when a certain girl from the Avenues ward spent 4 hours in our apartment recounting a dream that told her whom she will marry, though she didn't know him and he was on a mission. It was the longest 4 hours of my life. Plus add the hour that Marisa and Jill and I spent on the floor laughing after it was over.
Haaahahaha I totally forgot about that. I can't remember if I was with you at that time, or if it was recounted later for myself and Kimley in our apartment, but I do remember hearing that dream in excruciating detail. That may or may not have been the same instance that she was holding a long-forgotten popsicle while she talked, and I just sat there staring at it while it melted onto my carpet.
