Dream Baby

I was just reading over at Curiouser and Curiouser about Alice's brand new baby

she's a Christmas baby -- so that makes her what -- 3 weeks old?

wow

and I remembered the dream I had last night

well -- snippits

I was helping someone with her baby
and I was also going through the exhibit hall at
our corporate conference at the same time.

which -- well -- I can't tell you much

but the corporate conference we have each year
is really really cool

well - we were sitting chatting
really the women on either side of me were chatting and one of them
handed me her baby
they were talking over me
and so I took this tiny baby
which looked a bit more like
a monkey than a baby
and must have only
been about a pound
and
held it

I got bored with the chatters and went for a walk
through the exhibit hall

every once in awhile I
would get into something

I mean really into it
to the point where the dream
became about that new thing

and then I would say
WAIT -- WHERE'S THE BABY????

and start looking for it

I would find it upside down
in a basket or on a counter

pick it up
check on it
Blow some lint off
and move on

over and over

funny things dreams.
