I called the front desk last night and asked for a wake-up call at 6:00 am. I set the alarm by the bed for 6:00 am. I fell asleep somewhere around 12:30am (yes, yes I know… should have been in bed sooner… oh well.)
I’m dreaming some weird dream… can’t remember what it was about except that I didn’t like it. All the sudden, I *hear* Aimee… Aimee… in my mom’s voice like when I was in high school. She’d come into my room, turn on the light and say “Aimee” in just that way Moms have.
I woke up. Literally, out of my “deep” dream-induced sleep due to this. Rolled over figuring I’ve got another hour or two and the alarm clock said 6:10am! D’oh!
If that hadn’t happened, I would likely have kept sleeping! The alarm hadn’t gone off and the wake-up call hadn’t come through (turns out NO ONE got one — big complaint on my part).
So, my question… why in the world did I dream my mom waking me up?!?! I was totally on time for work because of it! Wow!
