parallelism

10Dec08

Last night I had the most horrible dream. I was lost in a school and ended up in the kitchen. There was a woman there and I asked her how to get outside.She points at a door and I go through it and I am trapped in a tiny closet with all this stuff blocking the door. I scream and struggle and finally get back into the kitchen. There is a door directly opposite so I go through it and I’m outside. There are craft tables set out and we are divided into groups by age. I am then seated with 5 people that I do not know, have nothing in common with and they ignore me. Everyone else gets right to work on their craft project and I am lost. I don’t know where the supplies are and I don’t know what I am supposed to be making.  The only thing any of them will tell me is that I need to check my mail box. So I start searching the wall of “mail” boxes for mine. I can’t find it and I don’t know how they have them organized but it isn’t alphabetical. So I am frantically searching for my box and when I finally find it everyone else has packed up in cars and left. So I am all alone watching everyone else leave and I have no clue where I am or where I am supposed to be going or what I am supposed to do when I get there.

This is perfectly fitting with my life at the moment. I failed my lab final in Anatomy last night. Failed it quite spectacularly. If it weren’t so depressing I would laugh about just how well I failed it. It counts as 20 percent of my final grade. The final I have tomorrow night counts another 30 percent. I thought I was ready for the test last night. Now I just think I am ready to go find a job in a fast food restaurant. Of course I am not qualified for that either.

 

I had to come back and add there were big nasty spiders in the closet too. Every time I would move something to try to escape they would be behind something. I don’t normally have a problem with bugs but these were gross. All red and veiny and swollen and mean looking. You know how you can tell someone is just looking for a fight? That is what these spiders looked like.

    Eek, those sound like dream spiders too. Good luck with the final…I don’t know that I’ve ever had a craft anxiety dream, but I’ve had plenty of the test-taking sort…at least you didn’t show up at the craft site naked!

    Oh god I didn’t even think about that! If I have another crazy dream and I show up naked in it I’m blaming you. :-)
