Dreams

Ok, as promised, the rest of the story!

I woke up this morning and remembered what I was dreaming during the night. The first part of the dream ( because most of my dreams are multi-faceted) started with Jim driving his truck in rainy hilly roads and me following somewhat close behind. Weird thing though, I was not driving, I was riding and Ryan was driving. I was firmly telling him to slow down, stop for stop signs, watch the road, etc. etc. Then I realized that we were not anywhere near home. We were travelling home from Iowa, but not on a road we would normally be on. I had no idea where we were needing to make a turn to head north to get from Illinois to home. I wanted to text Jim to tell him to tell me where we needed to go, then realized that he could not text me while he was driving. I pulled out a map (who has those anymore) and realized where we were and how we needed to get home, all this while living in fear of riding in a vehicle with Ryan as the driver.

It gets worse, if you can imagine!!!

We are now home, I get up out of bed and head to the bathroom. As I walk across the floor, there is an orange worm like creature crawling on the floor. It has black antennae and looked like a rubber ball but more tubular. It was BIG. I started screaming and jumped up on the bathroom counter. Jim came in to kill the creature. He started hitting it with something, I am not sure what. Every time he hit it, it multiplied. He kept hitting it and I kept screaming telling him that hitting it was making it multiply. (I love stating the obvious...especially to Jim) So, thankfully, I woke up. Jim said I was not screaming out loud but man, I felt like I had just run a race I was so out of breath and shaken.


This is kind of what the thing looked like, only it was more oblong. It was bright orange.
