Libertarian. But it says Democrat, I know. I can't decide. I think it's because my views are basically split right down the middle. I know fo' sho' it's not liberal though. I really want to label myself. Fiscal conservative.
I had a dream last night. Want me to tell you about it? Okay.
I'm on a church trip and we keep going in a rotation where we have to ride in a truck where the back is like a barn. So we go into a barn-like thing and are driven somewhere, we get out, do something, and then get back into the barn-truck. We're waiting for the truck to come pick us up and I'm talking to Blake. When we get on the truck, we sit in a corner so we can carry on our conversation semi-privately. To the point, my entire dream is basically Blake telling me that the reason that he doesn't like to date is because he isn't ready. When he came home from his mission, he married someone who died less than a few years after they got married. In my dream, this was the love of his life, and he said he wanted to be with her and only her when he returns to heaven. For those of you who can do math, this means it's been about four years since his wife died. I tell him that no one expects him to live out the rest of his life alone and that he'll have more than one wife in the after life anyways. He also won't ever have to decide who he loves more.
When I wake up, I think this is strange. My dream is basically a stream of some explanation of Blake's strange behavior and my own suprisedness at my indifference towards the fact that in the after life, men have more than one wife. It makes biological sense. But in my dream, I like Blake and think to myself that I would be okay with sharing his love with his dead wife. My dreams are way more emotionally complex than I ever am.
Moderate.
