When I was in college (and for a few years after), I had these panicky dreams where a paper was due in two hours, I hadn't started yet, and I couldn't quite get around to starting, and it was so late at night and I didn't even know what the paper topic was because I hadn't paid attention or opened a book all semester... ahhhh!
Now, I have the same dreams, but the theme is weddings. It's always the wedding day and lots of important stuff isn't done (like my dress). Last night, it was that my Save the Dates had gone out, but my invitations hadn't. I suddenly realized that the wedding was going to start in like, less than an hour. Guests showed up (since they got the STDs) and I felt like a douche for being the only bride in the world who never sent invitations. The chairs weren't set up for the ceremony and I suddenly realized that I hadn't even contacted the rental company to get them. I didn't have a veil and my dress was at the store. I managed to delay the wedding 2 hours to fix everything. At the bridal store, something was wrong with the dress. I didn't have time to get a veil so I resolved to just use the scraps of tulle that my stepmother has leftover from her wedding (which is really in her closet), and to just stick it on my head as is since there was no time to make it look nice (wtf, right?). I finally got my dress and headed back to the wedding site, and started getting the chairs out, but it was too late! The guests were arriving again... ahhhhhh!
I know it's the stress and excitement of having so much to prepare for one day, and always wondering if I'm forgetting something.
Does anyone else have these dreams? I wouldn't wish them on any of you. They are stressful.
