the craziness continues...

ok, seriously, i don’t know what’s up with these dreams lately. it seems i go long periods without having any... and then i get a bunch of crazy ones in a row. what’s the deal with that?

last night i was walking through a dense, very green forest. it was a warm day and the sun was filtering in between the branches. there were two people walking with me. as we came up a little hill and around a slight corner, there was a small clearing. and just on the other side of the clearing were two polar bears! ah! we all froze. i said nobody would be hurt, just get down on all fours and nobody run. but the girl on my right started bookin’ it, all on fours, mind you, towards the trees to the right. NO! i shouted, but it was too late, the bigger of the bears had already started chasing after her. she had disappeared into the trees, and the bear jumped after her, and then there was a clanging noise.... i saw through the trees that there was a large cage... the polar bear had been captured. “Excellent, now we can study it,” said the other girl with me. the enormous bear was pacing back and forth in the cage.

But what it turned out to be was a snapping turtle. I was sitting on the floor in a room that seemed to be part of a log cabin, and i was holding this turtle. It was about two feet long, and it’s shell was flat and smooth. it was pretty freaked out, because there were so many people bustling about, but it liked me so i was trying to keep it calm. i turned it to look at me, and it had pig-like nostrils (tiny turtle ones) and a pointed face. i remember thinking he was kinda ugly, but i liked him anyway. then a vet came over and said we needed to give it a shot before we could release it....
