(If you don’t know, Gary has a recurring dream in which he lives in a big house. I keep track in the category “Life in the Big House.” Sometimes, they’re obvious, sometimes not. Last night’s was obvious.)
Gary said when he woke up, “Oh, I had a Big House dream last night!”
“Oh, good. It’s been a long time since you’ve had the Big House dream.”
“This time, we owned this big house and you sold it out from under me because there was this little bungalow you wanted. You didn’t ask, you just sold it.”
I thought, “Yeah probably because I had to clean the big house.” I said, “Well, I like bungalows.”
He went on, “You were all excited because this new house was a French Bungalow and there was a hammock in one of the rooms.”
==================================
I KNOW. Why didn’t he just say I sold the Big House to the Travelocity Gnome?

He’s clearly feeling vulnerable. Now’s the time to strike!
Why did I know this house would be a French house?
I love the ‘I can’t believe what you did in my dream last night — you’re such a bitch!’ discussions. They really make marriage worthwhile.
Big Dot – I tried to get him to read the guidebook in the bathroom, but failed.3 – Mais certainemantAllison – I’m always going off with strangers having orgies in his dreams.
You ever have a dream where he did something truly awful to you? I had one once about an ex-boyfriend. I knew he hadn’t really done that, but I still had full possession of the betrayed feeling. It truly sucked.
Tami – You know, I haven’t. That’s odd. He almost never shows up in my dreams.
