I should preface this by saying that for the last two days I have been having a really rough time getting to sleep. I have been waking up all night long and the oddest things have been waking me up. Light coming through my blinds (which is strange because nothing has changed in my room), lights being turned on by family members in other rooms of the house(this never bothered me before) and of course, my nieces running around because of Spring Break. For the last two days I have been on a smoothie/juice and raw diet, and practicing yoga, which has left me pretty tired. Unfortunately, it hasn't been leaving me tired enough to get into a good sleep.
Last night was the first night this week that I was able to fall into what I consider to be a good sleep. I woke up maybe twice throughout the night, but I was able to return to sleep and dreams.

After the first waking (got up, drank some water), I fell into a dream about a party. I was with my best friend. We were at what seemed like a club. There were lights flashing and a crowd of people in the dark background. She introduced me to a tall, dark man with a beard and a beautiful nose. I seemed to be enchanted by this man... so much so, that I actually put my hand to his face and stroked his beard. I could actually feel the beard on the back of my hand. (Very weird because I am not into beards, really. Well I wasn't until maybe this morning, lol). I woke up.

2nd dream...I am in a house with my best friend. We are staying at someone else's home for some sort of vacation. She has a rolling suitcase with her, its black. We are getting ready to leave. She tells me she is having menstrual cramps, and doesn't feel well at all. She says she needs meds and I go to the kitchen to get them. I am stopped by a man, who I call James (?). I, still in a robe, hug him tightly, then place both my hands on his face and ask him if he wants me to make him some coffee. I forget about my friend and start making coffee. I start the coffee and go into the bathroom to get dressed. All of a sudden I am dressed. I bend over to scrunch my hair, and when I stand up, I am a different person. I have long curly blondish hair, kinda poofy, and I am wearing some long earrings. My eyes are green. My face has full makeup and my body- I am a little over average weight, big hips and a small top. (In waking life, I am tall, average weight, tan with long black hair and brown eyes.) I am wearing a denim jacket and jeans...I leave the bathroom like normal. I see a two other guys standing around, waiting for me- because we are supposed to be leaving. I put both my hands out and kind of tickle one of them and tell him, "ok let's go". I am about to walk out of the front door when I remember the meds for my friend, who is a little grouchy because she has waited so long. I head back to the kitchen and ask her which medicine she prefers and she tells me she wants Tylenol and "the sweet one". I know what that is apparently and I reach into the cabinet to get two packets of meds from two boxes. There is a third box and I think she needs that, too. I am about to get the last packet when I wake up. At that point I just feel sad that I didn't get to give my friend the meds because she is sick.

The first dream seemed very real. However, as I was waking up I could feel that it wasn't. I woke up quickly and didn't slip back into the same dream.

In the second dream, once my outer appearance changed, I knew it was a dream. However, instead of waking up and taking control, I just kept going along with it like it didn't matter. I felt like I was going along to to see where it went. I can remember a lot of details about the "new girl" because I was so surprised. Her face is very clear in my mind.

However... I am wondering what happened to the coffee for James, lol.
