now and again the dream-masters (or mistresses) see fit to let me actually remember what i dream. and, in between that now and again, they let me recall it vividly. generally i don't remember dreams -- i have this dream bag (not unlike a dream catcher) beneath my pillow because once upon a time i had nightmares so badly that i wouldn't sleep for days.

anyways!! last night: this dream was insane and freaky-scary! but of the sort that now that i'm awake, i can laugh at it, and did once i woke up.

i'm deathly afraid of spiders. as in not just "eek it's a spider waaaaah!!! *runs like a girl*" i mean clinical arachnophobia. i can tell the story how it started in another post, if anyone cares to know, but it's long (though entertaining) and so i'll save that for later.

so in the dream, i'm continually having to kill, then rid the house of spiders. everytime i think they're gone, i find another one. i find out at the end of the day that this government funded organisation has randomly chosen me as their project to cure arachnophobia. through shock and trauma, LOL. but all the spiders i deal with are no bigger than say, a thumbnail. kind of like brown wood spiders. so i gloat and boast and i'm all proud that i've gone the entire day dealing with spiders, and learning to not freak out and squish them on impulse.

i wake up in the middle of the night, in the dream that is, and go to get a drink of water. there's another brown woodspider on the floor, and i freak and then remember "what i learned." i take a cup to try and scoop it up to throw outside, and then suddenly it ... grows. it had its legs folded up beneath it's body, and they uncurled when i touched it, so it effectively doubled in size. i'm like, 'ohhhhhmygod, okay, okay i can handle this, alright,' and i adjust to it, and try again.

then it triples in size, and so on and so forth, until it is this massive atrocity of a spider, and it has big beady eyes and fangs (have you guys ever seen a wolf spider?! it looked like that in the face, but had the body of a recluse) and it was doing this hissy laugh, like "sss! sss! sss!" and it raised its front legs at me, like it was posturing (hobo spiders do that). like it wanted to throw down.

it chases me 10 blocks away to where the skate park is, and it starts to hiss that if i don't do a 720 it's going to eat me. i started to cry and said that even tony hawk messes up the 720 sometimes and that wasn't fair, and couldn't i just do something else instead? it said no. i have to do the 720 or be eaten. i of course did not complete the 720 and woke up just when i was about to get snarked up into the spider's mouth.

i woke up all cold-sweat and panicky, and then when i was retelling this dream to my mom and daughter, they stared at me, and then shiloh starts to do the "laughs and points" thing, and my mom slowly backed away down the hall .. at which point she started to laugh so hard i thought she was going to pop.

hope that story bought out a few smiles (at my expense!) Very Happy
