I got in a huge misunderstanding with my mom over the phone. She told me some happy Christian story involving a music box over the phone, and I practically exploded at her because I felt like I’d heard it a bajillion times lately. She got really offended and freaked out and thought I was leaving God or something. Dad was really freaked out too.
Later, I’m on the phone with them again except I’m in the backyard of our house and there’s lots of others there too. I walk around towards the front and see my parents walking around from the front to the back. They are kind of upset that I’m actually at their home, since they were expecting a phone conversation. I’m on the verge of tears and want to talk it out in person, because it allows less confusion and more release of emotion. I explain that I was really stressed during the previous phone call.
Later, We are in the first row for some sort of talk (maybe church? maybe something political?). I lean my head on my mom’s shoulder to show that I care and think the fight should be over. She ignores me but lets me be. Somehow, during the course of the talk I end up leaning on the fat old city council member next to me, clutching his arm like I do Joel’s. Apparently, I’m very cute. There’s some other political guy sitting in front of me (or maybe on my lap? I don’t remember). When it’s over, a Moms in Touch lady several rows back says “that’s how she’s getting those guys at the nerd school. By being all cuddly” in a disdainful “how promiscuous” sort of voice.

In my original dream journal, I had an inline comment saying that I had been on the verge of tears a lot lately.
