Do you ever have dreams that are so real you think they really happened? Sometimes I have to ask Hubby, did this happen or was it a dream...
One night I dreamed about having a conversation with my mother. I dreamed that I was telling her how to differentiate between Ravens and Crows. They are both black birds of roughly the same body shape. The main difference is that Ravens are larger than Crows. In my dream I had a different way of telling these birds apart. I told my mom that the way you can tell a Raven and a Crow apart is that crows have yellow legs and a yellow bill. THIS IS TOTALLY WRONG! Ravens and Crows have black bills and legs. However, after this dream, I was driving with my husband and had to make sure that crows did not have yellow because it seemed so real. This is just one example of realistic dreams I have had. I have had dreams of arguing with Hubby, and once I woke up so mad at him, and it was hard to get over the fact that it was a dream. I don't remember what the dream counterpart of my husband had done, but it was something that made me really upset with him.
Do you ever have dreams that you confuse with reality?
All the time! I can be bummed out all morning because of a depressing or discombobulating dream, and I've had the "you wouldn't REALLY do that, would you?" conversation with my husband before as well (of course, he thinks I'm a total loon when I do that).
ReplyDeleteI've also had dreams that my fist thought was real life before. When I was in high school, I dreamed I was fighting my brother, and I punched my bedside table hard enough to wake me up with a throbbing hand. And then there was the time I gave my husband a fat lip in my sleep...
