So how did that make you feel?

As we all know, dreams are frequent fodder for blogging, as they are a)mostly fucked up stories, b)tell us something about the blogger and/or the blogger's deepest hopes and anxieties, and c) are pre-written for the times you can't think of a goddam thing. Lord knows we've written about Girl-E's dreams, and can't say we don't know a blogger who's written about their own.

But our good friend Jess wrote something which gave us the idea that a new twist is needed on this blogging standby. It's easy enough for bloggers to remember fuzzy tidbits of their dreams, and then modify and embellish them such that they will come off the exact right level of quirky, insecure and hilarious to their readers. What's much more illuminating, however, is to read about dreams that other people have about the blogger. This kind of outside subconcious perspective on a person and their relationships is exactly what the blogging world needs. So the following is something that Jess wrote to Girl-E, we invite you to interpret this for the purposes described above as you see fit. And also, if you yourself have had a dream about Girl-E or us (though we can't imagine you'd share if it'd been about us), please submit for Boo-blog readers' analysis:

"I had a dream about you last night. You were telling me I needed to start to dress more fashionably and wear more makeup before my youth ended and I had no hope of style whatsoever. I protested that I'd gotten my hair highlighted and that had to be a good start, but you said that wasn't enough. This is only the second time I can remember that you've shown up in my dreams--the other time you had a serious problem with earwax."
