Dream... (LiveJournal Post)

I was at my moms house for a family gathering, They were all mad at me and not talking to me... so I decided to become an insect lawyer. I was representing this very pretty white leaf like insect who also happened to be deadly poisonous. She kept threatening to bite me, and I was scared of her. But she was really pretty.


This is what she looked like, but white white, and not as big, with about 100 legs underneath, completely flat, and a bit more delicate. Anyway, I was not doing a very good job representing her, and she was going to lose, so I tucked her into my pocket and helped her escape. She told me that she wanted something (this is the part of the movie where one character whispers in the others' ear, and the scene changes before you know what was said...)

I tuck the insect under a blanket and tell her to hide there and stay put, then I go. Suddenly, I'm in a pharmacy, and I have to crawl over a huge piece of furniture to get to the window, where I explain that I am an insect anthropologist and that I need a syringe for dispensing medication to children because the insect wants milk and minestrone soup. The pharmacists gets all excited, and tells me to hold on, runs to the back, and comes out about 10 minutes later with a bowl of chili. He tells me to try his minestrone soup. Its not minestrone, its chili! I make excuses and remind him about the syringe and he gives it to me but pouts as I walk off.

I get home with milk and minestrone soup mix in a bag, and start cooking. I rescue the insect, who has been trying not to drown in a puddle of water that has appeared in my bed under the covers. I watch as she balances all her feet on top of the water and floats. The cat apparently pushed her into it. I get her a graduated cylinder of milk and fill the syringe, but she dives in head first to drink it all. Then I bring in the minestrone, which I also made with milk. Then Stephen sent me a text saying he loves me and his mum and Norbert are there and they were going out. This, of course, woke me and the dream ended.

Everything was fine, but I got the willies when looking up pics of the insect to link here, so I think it might have been a nightmare. I'm scared of leaf bugs, now. :(

And Christine... I want to go to the farmers market too!
