Ok this was weird and funny so I wanted to share it.
Last night I was dreaming. I was trying to find an oyster burried in a shrimp. (yes strange, but hey it's me). While I was hunting for it I felt the tingle of my body trying to wake me up because I had to go to the restroom. Well in my deam I told myself that I couldn't got ot the restroom because that would be breaking anonymity. LOL and I listened to myself, so I didn't go. Then this guy (in my dream) came in and blew the place up, apparently this oyster/shrimp thing is pretty powerful or the pearl was I don't know.
Next thing Indiana Jones came in and rescued me and this other guy that was helping me find the shrimp/oyster thing. (Which is kinda funny because I grew up watching Star Wars and was in love with Han Solo as a girl, and yeah I can see the need for alanon in just that. But hey Harrison Ford comes to your rescue, who's ganna argue.?) He then helps me on my quest to find this oyster/shrimp thing.
And again I feel the need to go to the restroom. And again I tell myself that this would break anonymity. Then Indiana Jones tells me that it is okay, this won't break anonymity and I should go.
Sooooooooooooooo I don't know what the oyster/shrimp thing did because I woke up and listened to nature calling. But I really wish I knew that one, becuase I don't eat either of those things.
I remember thinking how strange that was, and when I went back to bed I couldn't stop laughing at the silliness of it all.
This by far was not the strangest dream I have ever had, but who knew that going potty was breaking anonymity? LOL. Thank heavens Indiana Jones was there to set me straight.
I know working your 4th step can impact your dreams, but wow. LOL
Just another strange night in my recovery.
Yours in recovery,
Mandy (Dolphin123)

Wow! And I thought I had strange dreams! Too much Al-Anon, nah!!!!!
Don't you hate those dreams where you have to "go", and you really do have to "go"!
I have awakened with a start sometimes, dreaming that I am in the bathroom, but I am in bed! Thankfully, I haven't had an "accident" now that I'm grown, but it sure can give me a scare. I would die of embarrassment.
I am struggling mightily to make a connection between a bathroom trip and breaking anonymity! I will have to take that one to my dream analyst!!! rofl
Thanks for sharing that one!
I am having a strange vision of Indy escorting you down a treacherous booby trapped hallway towards the bathroom with appropriate Raiders music and all!!!
And ppl say I have weird dreams. I agree, if Indiana Jones says ot's ok to go, it's ok to go! Usually when I need to 'go' while I am asleep I will dream I keep going to different bathrooms but there is always some reason I can't go.Someone walks in or there is something wrong with the toilet or something.It finally wakes me up.I'd rather have Indy wake me....actually I'd rather have Matt Dillon (James Arness) do it,but that's just me.
Thanks for the laugh.I like David's visual too with Indy snaking you through treacherous pathways and fighting off villains to get you there.What a guy!!
