Dreams

Neither M. nor I slept well last night.

I had another terrifying sci-fi nightmare loosely based on the movie I Am Legend. I have a lot of these,which means that something in this movie really tapped into my subconscious. Maybe any movie in which the protagonist ends up killing his own dog is going to cripple me psychologically.

M. dreamed about visiting my mother. He was waving a white flag of peace, but there were cruel Jewish grandmothers in the kitchen and they kept saying (Brooklyn accent here), "Oh, look what they let in". So he jumped into the air and flew to Africa, where he got some magic jelly beans from a tribal witch doctor. He brought these back to my mother, and said, "I've come to marry your daughter".
