What Does It Mean?

Last night I had a dream in which I met the two remaining Democratic candidates for president.

In a bathroom. Each.

I met Hillary in a women's room at a large public gathering. My hands were wet (from water, not pee!) but she shook one anyway. And she knew who I was and where I lived.

Then I found my son in the crowd (random!) and took him to the men's room. And went inside. (What? My son is 10. Old enough to go alone.)

Barack Obama was sitting in a stall, not doing anything but hanging out. We had a nice chat while my son peed.

Usually I'm loathe to share dreams here, because y'all, I don't want to read about YOUR dreams on your blog. But this one deserved a mention, don'tcha think?

I think it means you're watching too much election coverage, LOL.

But I didn't watch ANY yesterday! Or the day before. Or the days, weeks, months before that.

Did you wake up having to go the bathroom?

This clarification: "from water, not pee!" made me snort in laughter.

I forgive you for posting about your dream. ;)

Maybe it means our country is going straight to the crapper? ;)

How hilarious. I don't think I have ever dreamed about politics. But I just had the weirdest dream about...(ha ha, just a joke.)

[Margaret]

That they've both been slinging the merde around?

That is an odd yet timely dream. And I feel bad that I wrote about a dream just this Monday. And it's the 2nd time today that a blogger has written about not wanting to read about dreams. I find that odd and yet timely, too.

Interesting. LOL

This is so simple, really. This is the beginning of the Oh La La Script, and you are writing a political farce. Personally, I can't wait for the 2010 Oscars. I never dreamed of cameos with the two Democratic contenders. That's pretty original. Of course, there's nothing new in potty humor.

Regardless of whether you've been watching too much coverage of the democratic primary or not, you are steeped in it, because it's all around you. Why the encounters in bathrooms? (But interesting that, in your dream, both Hillary and Barack were in their proper, gender-assigned restrooms) I am not sure. I agree that it may be the association of politics with scatology. Your son's presence is probably meaningful as well (whoever wins this race will have an impact on his future, possibly.)

I have noticed, for the past six months or so, that I dream a lot, and very vivid dreams to boot, but I never remember them. I basically have no interest in dreams and their interpretation, though.

You never know where those two will turn up to get votes.

[rebecca]

it means you should stop eating pizza so close to bedtime. ;)

What's interesting to me is that Hillary was just standing in the bathroom, not doing anything. Whereas Obama was sitting, preparing to do work?

It's interesting. No idea what it means though. lol

Unusual dream. I never dream, or at least never remember that I had a dream.

Please tell me Obama wasn't tapping his toe--revealing a secret life. Hahaha. Great dreams. I had a dream about one of my husband's highschool friends the other day--we were totally snuggled up, clearly having an affair. It was freaky and it kept coming back to me all day. Hope Hil and B. aren't haunting your thoughts with bathroom images all day.
