I’m generally a good sleeper. My head hits the pillow and the next thing I know it’s time to wake up. If I dream I don’t normally remember details, but this week has been full of weird dreams.
Three nights ago I dreamed that hubby and I had a red-headed girl with freckles come to live with us. On the whole we were cool with it but I kept thinking to myself, “I’m going to have to talk to her teacher and organize time off next year so we can all go on holiday to the States.” And then I’d wonder if we’d have enough money to pay for the extra plane fare. It was so real I keep looking over my shoulder to see if any red-head kids are stalking me!
Last night was worse. I was in the bathroom and looking into the mirror. I noticed something in my eye and pulled it. This big, long string-like strand came out of my eye and it was a tail. I noticed there was more so I yanked the tail again and a green lizard came out of my eye. It was quite big. I screamed and the green lizard let out a loud shriek and threw up. There was icky green stuff everywhere and at that stage I woke up. The first thing I did was check my eyes. Luckily, they look pretty normal.
I’m not quite sure what to make of all this, but I have realized one thing. I dream in color 
I was never sure before but now I am.
Weird dreams indeed! What have you been snacking before going to bed, chica?
by Tempest Knight October 30th, 2007 at 5:26 amNothing out of the ordinary. That’s the strange thing. I can’t blame it on spicy foods or any food at all. Hmmm….unless it’s that BBQ!

What did you smoke? Inhailing too much bbq fumes?
by Gabriele October 30th, 2007 at 1:22 pmThose a funky weird vivid dreams!
I’ve had those kinds before. Usually it involves giving birth to weird things. Lizard out the eye has me squinting though.
by Amy Ruttan October 30th, 2007 at 1:48 pmawwwww - subconsciously you want to adopt me! that’s so sweet. i really am older than i act though.
by rhian October 30th, 2007 at 1:53 pmps- i tagged you - i know, i know - but this is actually an interesting meme.
Gabriele - maybe hubby slipped something smoky in the BBQ after I gave him such a hard time. Paaaaybacccck
Amy - eek, giving birth to a lizard would have been worse LOL
Rhian - red hair, huh? You’d fit right in. I have the freckles and hubby didn’t miss out on red hair by much
by Shelley Munro October 30th, 2007 at 4:54 pmI’ll be over to check out this meme you’ve stuck me with very soon
Hmmm, well. I think you should look it up in a dream book. I’m always fascinated when I do that.
by Lillian Feisty October 31st, 2007 at 9:11 amEek! Do you have a lot on your mind right now? It could be your subconcious trying to deal with it all.
I’m a big dreamer, but I haven’t had any weird ones in a while.
by Christine d'Abo October 31st, 2007 at 9:33 amI’m a wee bit freaked over the lizard, but my second reaction is - Thank God I’m not the only person to have weird vivid dreams! I sometime wake up with such strong emotion, a carryover from whatever ‘world’ I was just in.
And hey - congrats on the ms you complete/sent. Are you kidding?? The waiting really doesn’t get any easier??
by Wylie November 1st, 2007 at 5:09 amWylie - I’m still freaked about that lizard!
by Shelley Munro November 1st, 2007 at 11:28 amAnd no, the waiting part of the job seems to get worse.
