Me: I had the craziest rage dream early this morning …. about Chinese food.
Michael: Okay …
Me: We were with a group of people, maybe 12, but I can’t remember anyone, of course.* And I wanted to order Chinese for dinner, then three of the assholes hanging with us were all like, ‘oh, yuck, Chinese, no’.
Michael: Someone actually said no. Had the balls to say no. To you. Regarding food.
Me: Hilarious.
Michael: *chuckling* I’m just saying …
Me: I got insanely enraged. I lost my shit, completely. Screaming, calling the naysayers ‘morons with their stupid sweet and sour pork and lemon chicken’, yelling that they’d ‘never had authentic Chinese food before’ and therefore they had absolutely no say in what we ordered for dinner. I woke up with my heart pounding, absolutely livid. *pause of disbelief* Over Chinese food.
Michael: well, Facebook did show you that memory of last year’s dim sum yesterday.
Me: Oh. My God. Damn it, Facebook! I was perfectly okay before that!
In other news, apparently it’s been a year and a day since I’ve eaten dim sum aka ‘authentic Chinese food’. And I’m having a bit of – subconscious? – trouble with it.
🤣
*Though it’s probably unusual for a writer, I rarely remember my dreams.
ETA: apparently I wasn’t terribly clear (not surprising). I can’t get ‘authentic Chinese food’ on the island on which I live and Covid19 prevents me from traveling into Vancouver and casually going to restaurants. Otherwise, I would have had dim sum numerous times since last December!!
Ah. The creative genius at work. It all becomes clear.
😂😂🤣
Um, that food looks amazing and…now I’m drooling 🤤
Me too. I regret posting the picture. LOL
LOL, this is hilarious! Darn Facebook! You need to order that again and maybe you won’t dream/rage about it haha.
Unfortunately, there is no ‘authentic Chinese food’ on the island where I’m currently living. And Covid prevents us from traveling into Vancouver and getting dim sum.
Our last dim sum was Feb. Hubs brings it up at least 3 times a week. (Along with cruising lol.)
We’ve gotten used to only getting dim sum when we travel but a year is a long time!!!
Well, I guess I have never had real (and tasty) Chinese food. We live in Kansas and might have to google to see if it’s even possible 😂 Sorry you got your rage dream on😉
I’m very lucky to have grown up near or deeply within a large Asian population. And very spoiled because of it!!
I love that my favorite author has “knitting fails” & “Dream rages” that she not only admits to, but shares publicly. MCD you are awesome!
Ha, we are all human. Very human. 😊
