I haven't had to use my alarm clock at all this summer... I must say it's been oddly liberating. I couldn't fall asleep last night, and was able to sleep longer this morning thanks to the fact that Kristen got up with Greydon, which I appreciate. But I was finally roused from my slumber by the weirdest morning dreams. Why are morning dreams so different and wacky than normal dreams? Maybe it is just that I don't normally remember "normal dreams".
This morning, as the sun was warming me and trying to wake me up:
Kristen and I were in FL continuing our summer of excursions. My parents were there, but they had to run to "Ross Dress For Less" to pick up their dining room chairs which they had mailed back to the manufacturer and had been re-shipped to Ross (logical), so they had taken off, and Kristen and I were late for work (in FL, on vacation). So I went into the next room, which was the bank, to find out something really important, while Mom and Dad were playing on the huge antique carousel which had been installed at Ross Dress For Less and took up the entire store. While waiting in line at the bank, behind the glass wall, I saw two old high school acquaintances who had apparently gotten married (dream-world version) and another high school acquaintance who was there with her husband who is on leave from the Navy (a little more reality there), but he had huge ridiculous bushy hair(not exactly Navy issue). The guy with the cropped grey hair next to them (stranger) told me to teach Ballroom Dance well, because it ruined his marriage (powerful waltz that). Apparently this was all I needed to do at the bank so I headed back down the glass corridor where I was stopped by an old lady who told me that if any of these people found a cell phone to keep it because they were all broken (good to know). When I got back to the other room I noticed that Kristen had left her large carpeted stepped platform where she had been reposed... which was apparently enough to finally wake me up....
And now I'm wondering if I should start using my alarm clock after all....

Utahraceguide.com is probably the best one.
The only thing harder than trying to explain a dream and the way it felt is trying to follow along someone else's dream! Hahah...I love the carousel ride, especially.
Sleep in. It is one of life's rare, free pleasures.
That may be good now that school starts in a few weeks and sleeping in all summer will be hard to go back to work
