When I'm feeling lazy, as I do now, I tend to rely on the old "list" --- its succinctness keeps me interested and unattached, also, I decided to give a brief origin of where I believe these dreams may have been born. Here goes:
1. My late sister's naked, dead body is on display; settled on top of a car, her body is being taken through a center of town. I want to cover her up, but cannot catch up with the car.
Yesterday I spent some time thinking about my sister, in death, most particularly, I was thinking about her autopsy and then her cremation. Both thoughts bother me deeply; I picture vulnerable, defenseless bodies --- my sister's body --- and I hope that the people who tended to her were kind and not monsters. I read a horrible and gross account of things that may have happened to Marilyn Monroe when she died and was struck by disgust and images that won't stay from my head.
2. My husband is a jerk; he allows another woman to play with his hair and when I come around I find a thousand berets in his hair. The woman is a friend in real life, but in the dream she is a trouble maker, and my husband is, like in so many other dreams, oblivious to my concern.
These dreams really, REALLY annoy me. They almost make me think I am crazy. The thing is is that my husband and I are harmonious 99% of the time; when we do argue it's typically short-lived... still I have these insecure dreams...
3. A cousin of mine is on the phone with me; while I've been looking for the perfect dress for some important event, she has been sitting on her butt. An aunt apparently calls her and tells her about the perfect dress for me, but she decides that she is going to keep the dress because she has lost weight - which she hasn't. The dress is dark blue meshed with darker blue and strapless... I am annoyed with her but say nothing.
I'm wearing pink to my cousin's upcoming reception...and dress shopping with another cousin for hers in the near future.

I'm glad I'm not the only one with the crazy husband dreams. :D
It is interesting that you were talking about the autopsy stuff. I think Renee is going to do some sort of a book about funeral directing or something. I saw it on Facebook. :p Maybe you should do something with all of your dream images and create a chapbook surrounding death and what it means to you.
I keep thinking of ideas, then discard them, then think blah, then get lazy... I feel like themed work would be good for me, but I lose sight quickly. Thanks for checking in and commenting!
