Life-Alteringly Good Nap

Only when there are projects to complete and final exams to prepare for could a nap be THIS GOOD!

I FEEL like I've slept for weeks and my eye's are still dreamy-looking and morning-puffy. It's 4pm and I'm yawning and stretching like it was 7am. Delicious.

I dreamt in color with smells. In the dream it was Sean's birthday and there was a party at his parents home. When I arrived, there were oil lamps burning and scented candles. The warm light and delicate aroma filled the house and it was welcoming and wonderful. Friends began arriving. Carmen was there, but dream Carmen had a thick and beautiful accent. She was tall and elegant in a very short orange and yellow dress with an exotic print.

There were relatives there, too. The only man there besides Sean and Mr. Corley was Sean's uncle. The rest of us were women, all these women. They (we) were all dressed in beautiful things, white linens and breezy silks, all feminine and relaxed. We were drinking wine and having cheese and grapes.

It was almost 8pm and still daylight, so we were all going outside and coming back into the house, mingling and enjoying ourselves. We were waiting for someone to arrive before the party could start, but I can't remember whom. Sean was very relaxed and happy, laughing and joking with each little pocket of people he passed and posing for pictures with guests. I was glad to be there, and everything was warm and happy.

I just like to record dreams while they are still fresh, especially when they are so vivid.
