It's amazing what a mid day catnap can do for you... Insomnia is a regular part of my life, but lately it's been extra pesky and I haven't been getting my proper sleep. Today I had a 3 hour break in between sessions at work so I decided I would go home and eat and take a quick nap so I would be sharp at work. So I ate, read a book for about 15 minutes and felt dozey, flipped on the alarm as backup and hit the pillow. Zzzz... how nice. The dream I had was better than the sleep.
I woke up in the middle of the dream and felt like I was in a flashback of some sort... I had been dreaming about an experience a few years ago... my girlfriend at the time had mild exhibitionist tendencies... well, we both did... or do... whatever, anyway the dream was about a time we had gone swimming at a local beach and we were both in the mood, so I pulled my car down a short path off the main road, we got naked and went at it. The circumstances were a bit odd and really had me startled when I woke up out of the dream. That day was extremely hot and where we parked the car, we were surrounded by flowering trees and shrubs pushed right up against the windows... there were dozens of bees and wasps all around us so we couldn't open any of the windows.. basically the car turned into an easy bake oven. So there we were in the intense heat, sweating half to death, making love in a car, surrounded by flowers and trees, the sound of bees all around and soome crazy wind coming down the path... it's one of the most intense sexual experiences I have ever had... hot sweaty lusty lovemaking... and the point of the dream that I woke up was her on top of me, screaming loudly, she bends down and grabs my head, leans in to kiss me and poof, I wake up.
I literally sat straight up in bed, looked around and said out loud, 'What the fuck is going on?" A very mind-boggling and surreal dream experience, and it took me several minutes to figure out where I was and that the dream was really something years in the past... and then I had to get up and go right to work. Talk about a bum deal... Whatever, it was nice to revisit something that way, intense and crazily awakening in another time and place... I have very fond memories of that moment in my life and it still plays that realistically in my memories... I close my eyes and I can still see her looking down at me, I can here the bees and the wind, I can taste the salty sweet taste of her skin on my lips and smell the scent of two people in the throes of uninhibited lusty sex amplified by unreal temperatures in that little old car... life is good I say, life is good. 30 years from now I hope it's still as clear and vivid in my mind, I'll certainly never be lonely at the old folks home...
