making your meaning clear

A: now listen to Carlos and Nicole

what does Nicole say about her dreams?

you look tired are you okay?

yeah I’m fine. I guess I just had a bad night.

I often don’t sleep too well.

you know I have some strange dreams.

you do? I hardly ever dream.

Yeah; I am… I’ve had some weird dreams. really weird dreams, they’re scary… always scary ones…

They’re never good ones, they’re just weird and off-the-wall.

like nightmares?

yeah I have really bad nightmares.

I tend to have dreams that come true every once in a while.

I try to be careful; you know the saying “don’t tell a bad dream before breakfast because it might come true”

never heard of that!

So you tell it after breakfast?

yeah or sometimes not at all.
