Yes. In the grand scheme of things it amounts to very little. However, I'm pretty jazzed about a movie I can finally eagerly anticipate. Haven't felt this way since the final LOTR installment.
Went to Luke's 4th birthday party at Jason and Laura's Wednesday night and had, me thinks, too many of Laura's delicious strawberry with cream cheese icing cupcakes. I think I had four, maybe five. It's not the calories that make me think I had too many mind you - it's the fact that the psychedelic icing gave me some whacked out dreams.
I woke up several times, but that's probably because Glory was on the bed with her feet slightly sticking over on my side, and I hear that's the only way you typically remember a dream is if you wake up during it.
Among other things, I recall seeing this little spider in our house that Jacob and I were checking out as it could jump about 3 inches across the floor. We thought that was kind of neat as I stepped on it.
Then we saw two more, so I grabbed a can of Raid or something and started spraying them. Lo and behold while spraying those two we saw a couple more and then Whoa Nelly!, from behind the gerbil/dwarf hamster/lizard cage area we flushed out the Queen (are there queen spiders? I think not.), who was about the size of an egg and proceeded to climb up the wall.
I carefully aimed the spray, while thinking maybe I should grab a flyswatter, no, I might miss, a shoe? no, I'd have to get to close to it, and sprayed, at which point she jumped off the wall. Where is it? Where did she go? I don't want that thing crawling around our house...... aaagh.. what is that on the back of my neck!!!!!! (woke up.) I wonder if Jenny was awake or awoken at that point. Need to ask her.
I proceeded to fall back asleep in probably 30 seconds.
Next dream.... Hey, I'm going to go back to school - my old junior highschool. Weird. Walking through the second story hallway to class, wait, I don't know where my locker is or what room I'm supposed to be going to. I'd better go to the office to tell them I'm back and find my schedule... switches to Mt. Vernon High School lobby now for some reason... oh, I'd better put on my sportcoat.. What? I never wear a sportcoat (except for Senior pictures and funerals maybe, and I think once on Easter).. there, I have my ugly gray sportcoa... what is that wriggling on my upper arm? Ugh.. try to smash it under the sleeve, no then whatever this wee-beasty is might bite me... so I rip the stupid sportcoat off and out falls a mouse. How embarrassing, don't let anyone see it, they'll think I'm some kind of filthy hobo. Trying to corner, hide mouse so noone sees it, Yuck! The thing has two heads... one on each end of it's body. (woke up...)
Did anyone else who partook of Laura's cupcakes have a similar experience last night?
