It's all in the mind

Mostly my husband, Vince, is very considerate and helpful but he is far from perfect. The other day we ended up outside a school which seemed to be having some sort of celebration. There were a lot of people there but the walls were bare as though perhaps they were finishing up for the year. Vince went charging off, leaving me bringing up the rear carrying the jackets.
Within minutes I’d lost sight of him then spied him waving from the top of a double-decker bus as it drove off round the oval. I had already decided I’d go back and wait in the car but I couldn’t because it was locked. I pretended not to see him and made it look as though I was having trouble managing the coats and a string shopping bag I’d picked up somewhere.
I was all set to give him a piece of my mind when he came back but then realised that really wouldn’t be fair. He probably hadn’t had the same dream I had and wouldn’t know what I was talking about. Not that that’s unusual.
Photo of our bus which unfortunately isn’t double-decked. Doesn't it look good with its 'go-fast' red stripe?

You wouldn't believe how many times I have been in the dog house as a result of dreams my girlfriend had.

@moffittjc At least I wake up to myself (gosh I'm funny sometimes) before I hit him.

I always think red cars look like they'll go faster.

That's pretty funny..one true to life thing though..my grandmother was looking for my grandfather at a shopping center looking high and low..and she found him standing behind a pillar..lol. He was probably done with shopping, and was hiding!

I know a couple who sat back to back on a park bench affair in a shopping mall - waiting for each other! Haha. Such stories make me feel better!

Hope he is nicer tonight. That was very rude of his dream self.

Lucky you realized that in time. No one can dream the same dream. I love the bus looks spiffy with that red stripe.

We would NEVER take it to Ireland. Some roads aren't fit for anything bigger than a wheel-barrow.

Double deck would be cool, but that stripe is too. Strange dream!
