You've been warned, this is a gross dream.

Last night, I dreamt my mom was driving me around and area I spent a lot of time in as a kid. She would pull up to a house, not one that I spent time at as a kid, but very near it, then pull away and drive somewhere else, only to come back and do the same thing. This happened repeatedly.

Then, I was at a big dinner/dance. It seemed to be a formal occasion as everyone was dressed up. I sat in the middle of a long table filled with people. There were other long tables filled with people, too. I knew them - they were friends of the family. Everyone was talking and we all seemed to be squished in and happy to be social.

On the dance floor, many people were dancing. I noticed a lot of girls in burgandy taffeta dresses. At one point, I had to use the rest room so my sister came with me. When we walked in, there were a lot of people there. There were also rows and rows of stall doors. We each found one, took care of business and headed back to the table to be with our family. Then, it seemed I had to go pee very very badly. So, I got up to use the restroom again, this time alone. The burgandy girls were all drunk and trying to get to the bathroom too. It was crowded and confusing, but finally I made my way into the bathroom. Each stall was occupied or taken just before I got to it. Finally, I find a stall that is open and as I'm about to step in, a drunk burgandy girl pushes me out of the way, saying that she has to throw up. At first, I am ok with that, but then my bladder is VERY fully and I WAS there first, so I said no and pushed her out of the way, and got into the stall. Well, as I'm sitting down, doing my business, the drunk burgandy girl sticks her head under the stall door and throws up at me. She did it intentionally! So, I threw up at her, too! Now, if you don't think that is gross enough, in the dream, our vomit was burgandy! It was of a thick consistency, too.

Ok, if you've read through that and can stand to read on...what does all of this mean? I've tried to look it up but nothing seems to fit. Anyone??

Yucky....that is kinda gross Karen...kinda made me think of BarfBag from the movie Stand By Me with all the blueberry pies...but anyway!!
Maybe some of it means that you're standing up for yourself but are still uncomfortable with it at times? That you're comfortable with your friends and family no matter where you are or what your doing. That you hate being pushed around or when people try to step over you and you take charge.
Hmmmm, I don't know, maybe I'm just out to lunch. Next!! lol

[Peace]

ok, here's my go of it........all colors represent something specific in dreams and burgandy, being a shade of red, could represent energy and life (as you say, the girls were partying, drinking, living it up, right? it could represent their vitality even). now, as strange as it may sound, having to use the bathroom can symbolize pent up frustrations or even creativity; something that is pent up and needs to be released. (especially since the second time you had to go SO bad, right?) now, the presence of your entire family can represent needing that connection, maybe from childhood or just in general. a comfort zone or togetherness of that connection to family. (which you mention your childhood here and the happiness of everyone). the throwing up, well, not sure about HER throwing up at you, other than symbolizing the negative actions of others towards you, but YOUR throwing up back at her would seem to me to symbolize your purging of negatives of your own and also a simple fact of not taking any crap from others. you do to me, i'll do back to you.

so, maybe you're having feelings of separation from family that you'd rather be closer to? maybe you don't always take action when you need/want to and have pent up frustrations of some kind? maybe you just have to get something out/off your chest and possibly it may be with family? or you just need that structure and unconditional support of family? ok, i'm rambling now. lol. this may mean absolutely nothing, but that's my go of it. lol. ~hugs~

thanks to the both of you for being brave enough to read through my gross dream. I have to say that it sorta makes sense. I am the type of person that surprises people when they realize I am intelligent or when they realize I will speak my mind or when I finally stand up for myself. My kindness is often mistaken for weakness - OFTEN! It's life-long theme. In the dream, when the girl pushed me out of the way because she needed the restroom so badly, I almost let her have it, recognizing her need. But, my own bladder was so full and I knew I wasn't going to make it if I didn't get into that bathroom, which was rightly mine in the first place. She was surprised when I pushed her back and got into the stall myself.

Anyhow, thanks for helping me make sense of it. I rarely, and I mean RARELY remember my dreams. So when I do, and they are like this, I am puzzled and try to understand their message.

Thanks you two!

Oh, Karen, I made it through your dream...not so gross. But I didn't have any else to add. The other 2 got it. I even looked in my dream book and it didn't have much information different. Dreams are usually sorting out daily stress. But the ones that really affect you, like this one does mean something, so try to put this dream into situations in your life, obviously not literally..hehe It will come to you at the right time.

Are you logging this? When I started that, I started dreaming more and more vividly. Some people don't want to know. I used to ask at night for dreams that will help me further understand.
