Strange dream last night.. when I was younger, and this is in real life, I had a black rat snake who was a cool snake. I guess they can be pretty mean and nasty, but this one, his name was Navaar, was friendly and tame. I’d even take him out to the front lawn and let him slither around. He was a very cool snake. Unfortunately he died… but that’s neither here nor there.

Last night I dreamed I had another snake.. not really a pet, as it was not friendly, but it also was a black rat snake. And I was cleaning out his tiny cage, as well as some fish tanks, with my Dad. And the snake got out and bit me. But it didn’t hurt… I saw his teeth go into my hand, deep, but there was no blood, and no pain. I just squeezed his head and pulled the teeth out and put him back in his glass tank. It was odd, but I’m glad it didn’t hurt!

I do like snakes, they fall under the four leg rule. Four legs or less, it’s okay. More, it’s gross. Either way, hopefully the critter, human or non, doesn’t get mesothelioma, as that’s a nasty cancer and no one needs cancer!

As I was watching TV tonight, Robin Hood on BBS, I had a strange sense of Deja Vu. It’s not a dream in and of itself, but the Deja Vu was that I had dreamed watching this episode. His gang was tied up on the hill and he was going to be killed. And I swear I dreamed that in the past! And I’d just come home from an agility trial too. And I thought if I saw this after having dreamed it, then my dreams do come true!

But I think that a lot when I have Deja Vu and I don’t know if I really dreamed it or not. Maybe with this dream diary and keeping track, someday I will be able to verify a dream!

Instead, I want some Chicago travel… as that is where I was born, and it’s been so hot here.. but then at least it’s not humid like it is back east!

Another odd dream… it started out where I was in some sort of story where there was a bad guy and he was shedding his skin somehow. There was a small room, a small area and he had a shell like all over him, and it was cracking off in big chunks.

Then I went to some sort of area where there were a number of women and we were all getting our clothes and makeup fixed up. Which was weird because I don’t usually fix up either my clothes or my makeup, though sometimes I do want to learn how. And I was one of only three white women there, the rest were black, which I didn’t notice right away because it didn’t really occur to me until later.

Maybe I need some memory cards inserted in my brain to help me remember better… dreams sure are interesting!

Last night I dreamed that we were putting on a play… and I was going to be the Queen. It kinda morphed into a reality TV show, and then it became real. And there were some scandals going on… I kinda remember the dogs being there, I had a companion animal that I was bonded too, or something. Oh and there was a cavalier king charles spaniel that was cowering, his Mom wanted him to go into a pool and he didn’t want to. That’s probably from the hot flyball tournament I was at last weekend.

Just bits and peices of this dream remain, but I remember I had to step up and become a Queen and take charge of things. The King, my husband, wasn’t all that great of a guy and I had to learn how to get along with him and yet still do what I wanted and needed. It was interesting.

I’m tired, last weekend was busy but fun. I went to southern Utah for a flyball tournament. I so want to live in a rural area… build a house, get some nice farmhouse sinks and some property, and not have to work during the week!

Sometimes I have dreams that I’m just grateful to wake up from. This was one of them. It was short… but I was feeling Lucy, my 9 year old smooth blue collie girl, and she was skin and bones. In my dream… she was getting old and couldn’t keep any weight on anymore, and so she was withering away.

I was horrified and so worried about her because she’s only 9 and she’s not really old yet! Not until next year! I was glad to wake up and find her whole and strong. I had to touch her right away because the dream was so real, I was so worried about her.

She has had some health issues lately and so I worry.. but she is strong and doing well! I have some dog health books I bought from Amazon books that we look through once in a while to see if our dogs might have any symptoms or something bad.. but usually the darn books just worry me more than anything. :p

I hate dreams about bugs. I hate bugs.. I have the four leg rule. If it has four legs or less, it’s okay. If it has more, it’s disgusting! And yeah I do like snakes and snails, they are cool. Though I can do without slugs and some other things thank you very much.

Anyway so the other day I dreamed about having a big huge beetle or something on my back. I don’t remember too much, but I wasn’t really all that freaked out, thank goodness. But it was disgusting, nonetheless. And someone was able to wipe the bug off my back.

I’d rather have dreams of ostrich feathers and feather beds and soft cuddly things!

I had a dream that I was watching a basketball game, and the Utah Jazz were playing. It was the finals of the whole season, last game… there was only one game, though. There wasn’t a series of games like in real life. It was just the one game and the Jazz were down but they were holding on okay..

And then in the middle of the game a new rule went into effect. The new rule was that there would be two basketballs instead of just one. Well, this turn of events was great for the Jazz and they ended up winning!

It was odd to see two basketballs on the court! LOL and I was watching from my teak furniture which was also super weird. And I don’t usually watch basketball, I’m not a big sports fan, so weird dream this was!

I’ve only been remembering bits and pieces lately of dreams… and one of the bits I’ve remembered was looking through a discount bin at a dog store for light blue collars for the dogs. Light blue is the color of our flyball team. The collars were material and a bit weird. In real life, I wouldn’t like them, I don’t think. Maybe even in my dream I didn’t like them all that much. Not really sure. But they were a ribbed type fabric and I kept getting more and more out of the bin.. they were only $3.00 each, but when I had a pile of them they got really expensive!

I need to save money, not spend it on collars! And I need to lose wight, and get on some treadmills instead of eating pizza for lunch, like I did today. Ugh!

Another strange one.. but I seem to say that a lot. I dreamed that I was at some kind of camp, it seemed… and there was a test we had to do. We’d taken some sort of course and in order to complete it we had to take this test. There was more before this, but I don’t remember much of that now, just the test.

Me and a guy, cute, probably a partner but not sure who he was, had to go down and find a couple of big dragon like monsters under the ocean. After we jumped in and went down… I remember thinking about how long we’d be able to hold our breath, but since it’s a cartoon and fiction it doesn’t matter so we were able to stay under and not worry about breathing.

At first I went down with all my clothes on and it was too heavy, so they mostly came off and I was in some sort of swimming suit. As was he. We swam around and we found other teams who were looking for their monsters. Each team had two monsters to slay and pull out the hearts of to bring back. Oh, before we jumped in I told the teacher I didn’t think killing a creature was a good way to test and end a class, especially for a vegetarian (I am vegetarian) but he looked me right in the eye, dang he was cute, and said it’s what we had to do. So I shrugged and the monsters were bad anyway so went down to do it.

So without any skin lightening because it was pretty dark down there, we accidentally found one of the monsters but he was not ours, he was for another team. But he attacked us and what were we to do? So we defended ourselves and killed him and took his internal organ back to the rendezvous point and dumped the organ into a big chest that had other organs in it.

The team who was supposed to get that monster was pretty upset, but I think we worked things out. Then off me and my partner went to find our other monster… since we got one, even though it wasn’t our target, we were good and only had to get one more.

We found our main target and he was huge, and the nastiest of the monsters. There was a whole city down under the water in the ocean… and this monster was behind some sort of business front… and had a couple of cronies with him and they were watching a big screen TV. lol. He looked like a big slug and we needed to lure him out from behind this area to get him and kill him.

There was this huge rough sable collie there… as big as the monster himself, and this sweet collie laid down and took a nap, all relaxed. And Ron.. suddenly my partner was Ron from Harry Potter… stroked the collie until the monster, his cronies gone, started to come out too for some stroking. The monster was getting tired and fell asleep and came out of his little cave area, and Ron stroked him too, I think using TTouch. And the monster fell asleep.

So Ron was walking around then, crashing into things, looking for a spear or something with which to stab into the monster. No I didn’t feel any guilt but this was quite odd. Then one of the guys from the other team who we killed his monster, he was there with a spear, and was going to loan it to Ron. Then Harry, who had been waiting in the wings and needed to be in on this, came forward, and they all had spears and at the same time all three of them stabbed the monster in its sleep and killed it.

And there was victory. LOL… and then I woke up. What an odd dream.

Oo maybe this is a good sign! The night before last I dreamed that my Husband and I were living in our house in a very rural area. It was a fun house… but for some reason we were in danger. Or we needed to clean things out… at first we were outside and there was a lion out there. Yeah, a real African lion, not a mountain lion. She was a female and we were a bit nervous of her, but she didn’t do anything to us.

Then she kinda morphed into a bear… and wandered away. But we were nervous and wanted to get rid of all our food and junk outside the house so the bear wouldn’t come back. There were these cupboards outside… narrow and tall, and we stored things in them. Of course this wasn’t strange in the dream. It was just normal. So we started pulling old food, butter, mostly storage type foods, and junk, out of them and sorting out what we’d keep and what we would throw away. Most of it we threw away.

With all that work we didn’t need any diet pills, we were working pretty hard. But it was neat to kinda see a house we could live in that was in a rural area! I want to move to a rural area soooo very badly! Someday.
