Dreams do come true
Warning: Tongue and cheek post below
I’m sitting in a room, which I think is in my office building somewhere. There are a bunch of chairs behind me that are all filled with chattering people. My boss is facing me seated in a chair of his own and he is laughing. He has some sort of multicolored robe or sash around his neck and is lifting his hands into the air. Next to me is a woman that I can only describe as Jewish because she doesn’t have any other discernable features. And I am sitting there racking my brain, trying to figure out how I am going to tell my wife, Amy, that my boss just married me to some Jewish girl!
The alarm goes off and I awake from a very weird vivid dream. Apparently I wasn’t so much worried in the dream that I was becoming a polygamist, but was trying to figure out a way to soften that blow to my WIFE! So I go about the rest of my day relieved that the woman wasn’t a particular person that I knew and forced to wonder if I have some sort of hidden feelings for someone. Dodge a bullet there!
Later that evening I arrive home and there are two cars parked outside my house that aren’t usually. Amy had invited a couple friends to go to a candle party with her and they were there to have dinner with us before heading out. So I walk into the house and my wife and her two friends are in the kitchen cooking dinner together.
We exchange hellos and Amy’s friend Jill says, “Looks like you have yourself a little polygamist home here!”
I stand perplexed for a moment trying to remember what polygamist meant and then stunned that she said that, followed by a very lame, “Well you know…I do what can.” And for a moment I wonder if the Mormons have it right after all? Thankfully my wife found it funny too!
After dinner they left for the party with Amy leading giving me a hug and kiss, while they filed behind her giving me a hug and a “kiss”. And I think to myself, polygamy is Biblical isn’t it?!
As I related this story to a friend, he cheered “DREAMS DO COME TRUE!”
