Arguing About Pasta Then Kissing Mara at Home

Arguing About Pasta Then Kissing Mara at Home

I dreamed I was at the grocery store with my husband, arguing about which brand of pasta to get, when I saw my coworker Mara in the next aisle. Except she was also somehow my old roommate from college. I left the cart and followed her toward the parking lot. We ended up in my kitchen at home, sitting at the table like nothing was wrong. She leaned in and I kissed her, and I felt this mix of excitement and this heavy guilt, like I could hear my husband still talking about pasta in the other room. Then I was back in the store, holding my phone, and there were texts from him asking where I went. I kept trying to delete them but the keyboard wouldn’t work. Mara was at the checkout pretending she didn’t know me. I woke up before I had to explain anything.
