My Dreamy Men

What do Adam Levine and Paul McCartney have in common? Many things I presume, like selling records, touring etc. But a less obvious commonality is that I have dreamt of both of them.
I saw Maroon 5 in concert a couple years ago in Milwaukee. It was an amazing show. (VH1 is showing a Maroon 5 LIVE show right now. It reminds me of when I saw them.)

A few weeks after I saw them, I dreamt that Adam and the rest of the band met me after the show and followed me home. We stopped in Mendon and they asked me.."What is there to do around here?" I laughed and said, "Let's go to Kalamazoo." So we drove up there and hung out all night. We were in Denny's drinking coffee and eating breakfast at 2am. It was an invigorating dream.

A few weeks ago, I had a dream that Andy and I were in Kauai again. This time it was with family.. (my mom was there.) We were all sitting in a souvenir store/resturaunt of some sort when suddenly Paul McCartney walked through. Mom was the first to look up and gasp in excitement. Then I turned and looked. I got up and started walking toward him. Andy smiled and said, "oh no..." my mom just watched intently.

I approached him and smiled. He was impressed to be recognized by a girl old enough to be his daughter and welcomed me with, "'Well hello Love. Do you know who I am?" I was nervous and excited and digging through my head for his name. In order to answer quickly, I just said, "You're only my favorite Beatle." Hi grinned. Then it came to me. "You're Paul McCartney!" He was flattered and put his arm around me. Then he said, "let me take you to my store." - referring to a store that he apparently owned (all created in my dream.)
I looked back and mom gave me a look like "Where are you going with Paul McCartney....."

He took me across the street and showed me his little shop. It looked just like the other stores on the island - full of the same sort of souvenirs and things. You would've never known that it was owned by a British music icon.
We had great conversation (of which I couldn't recall when I awoke) and he hugged me a few times. He gave me a nice little kiss before I left. And I was so excited over it.
I walked back across the street gleaming. Mom and Andy saw me when I came back and Andy rolled his eyes and laughed over seeing my expression. My mom said, "Don't you tell me that you kissed Paul McCartney!!!" I responded by saying, "Okay. I won't tell you!!!"
