My best friend is turning 21 next week. His parents are taking him on a trip and invited me and another close friend to come with them. We don't get to see each other very often nowadays, considering one of us works full time, another lives two hours away, and I am in college full time.

We've been planning out the trip for a few months now and we're all really excited about it, but Wednesday night I had a stress dream about our friend who lives away not being able to make the trip. Then just a few hours ago, I had another stress dream where I unpacked at the hotel and had both of my parents cell phones with me (I live with my parents still and I'm very close to them).

Not really catastrophic, but just moderately infuriating things happening in these dreams. I haven't ever been on vacation. I've tried to plan several out with my friends and family but something always comes up and we cancel. I just want to get ready and enjoy spending time with my friends but these intrusive thoughts keep working their way into my sleep.
