have you ever woken up from a dream that is so vivid and distressing that you literally can't get over it and you cry about it once you're awake? i have. witness:

ME: i had this horrible dream last night that i was at some kind of camp or convention and billy [my ex boyfriend] was visiting me there and we were discussing what we've been up to and he told me he's been making things out of clay. i thought he meant sculpting since he's an artist but he meant actually creating things that did not consist of clay at all, out of clay.

SHANNON: like what?

ME: well his dad showed up there and billy turned to him and said "hey dad what's the one weapon you always wanted?" and his father responded that it would be a gun. "look dad" billy said and had made him a PURE GUN out of clay!

SHANNON: (laughing) a pure gun? what?

ME: yeah! like a metal gun out of clay!

SHANNON: ok so what's the devastating part?

ME: oh so after billy made this gun i was so excited for him that i tried to kiss him and he wouldn't kiss me back.

SHANNON: and you cried in your car all the way to work over that?

ME: at the time it was so upseting. but later on that day i thought about what i was crying about and i laughed so hard.

SHANNON: i thought you were gonna say it was because he shot his father or something.

ME: oh no, i wouldn't have cared about that.
