Dreams

Been almost a year since I started having the oddity of the same memory, as a dream, every night.  Totally weird.  As I was to learn, also totally worthless, it was just memories to torment me.  I finally just gave up trying to stop the dream - just live with the fact that you are stupid and God will continually remind me it seems.  But, I was not stupid - naive perhaps but not really stupid.  I do not how I could have taken any other path ...  Sigh.

Then I had a series of real dreams over the weekend!

In one, I was walking in the Arizona desert.  Weaving in and out of the cactus, it was beautiful.  And then, yeah, a gila monster clomped on to me!  Well it was a little freaky but he had bit my titanium leg - so no harm, no foul.  But, there was no way I could encourage him to let go!  Nothing worked.  So, I walked back to the car, lizard swinging back and forth on my jeans, and drove until I found a Highway Patrol type.  I pulled over and walked up to his car.  I asked him how to get a lizard off my leg.  He freaked out.

I was able to get him to understand that cutting off the head of the stubborn reptile just was not what I desired.  Eventually he got it off, with much effort and commented that cutting off its head would have been so much easier!  Then we had the discussion with his dispatch at how to wash the poison from my jeans without contaminating my washing machine!  Yeah, my dreams are always convoluted.

Then I was in Costco, looking for new jeans and the choices were not good.  There were lots of big butt pants, but I lack the middle age spread so many enjoy, so no huge butt I fear.  But, I need a new pair of jeans!  It was quite an odyssey!  And it was horiffying to me find myself then, having gone through checkout, to be putting my new pants in the middle of the departure area!  AAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!  Yes, I am one of those people whom is not comfortable dressing or undressing in public!  If there is a hidden message here, I am terrified of what it could be!


As one of my friends told me, "Kris, I think something is really wrong with you ... you have the most convoluted dreams I have ever heard of ... "

LOL!

Or, try this one from Saturday night ...

I was setting up for a gem and mineral show, arranging the displays and thinking to myself I should have gotten up earlier because I was only wearing my pajama bottoms!  Then I got to thinking about what was I going to do!  The show would open and there I would be - in my pajama bottoms scaring off buyers!

Just then, I heard: "Uncle Kris, Uncle Kris!"

It was my pseudo-nephew Paul.  Paul!, of course, he could drive to my home and pick up some clothes for me and get back in time for me to be presentable!

Paul continues, "... there is a giraffe running around the woods!"

Our eyes met and the next thing I knew we were stomping through the woods looking for a giraffe ....

Don't ask me ...
