Various and sundry
Mar. 21st, 2009 10:29 pmI am beginning to feel a little better. Just a little. Still winded and a bit congested and my throat's still sore.
One of the good things about being self-employed? I can take off an entire week. Bad things? I have a show tomorrow that I cannot take a "sick day" for, lol. I hope I don't keel over after it's done.
So far, I can only remember one crazy antibiotics dream. I made a deal with some sort of powerful entity to become a cat in someone's house. I thought that the entity was...neutral. Anyway, I became a black cat with green eyes. I was told by the entity that eventually I would have to pass a test, and after that, it would be permanent. So after a few days, this other cat suddenly came running up some stairs, and I was astonished, because it was me, er, me-the-cat, an exact duplicate. The cat was crouched low to the ground, looking around, hyperalert. And then I knew what the test was, and I was upset, because the entity obviously wasn't neutral, it was evil. Um. Dream logic, remember. Anyway, the test was that I had to kill the other cat. If I did, it would be permanent. If I didn't, the other cat would stay in the house and my cat contract would be lost. So I lunged, using the element of surprise, and bit the cat right solid on the back of its neck. It was incredibly intense. I could feel the fur, I could feel my canines sinking in, I could feel the spinal cord. But then I woke up. So I have no idea if I'm actually a cat in someone's house, or if I lost and that other cat's in someone's house, and I'm just me, typing a LJ entry. Probably the latter. Damned entities.

Your dreams will never cease to amaze me - they're so vivid. And scary, too! When I read this, *I* could feel my teeth biting into cat fur - well written stuff. *nods*

Last night, after the car was loaded and I was ready, I finally allowed myself to completely relax--I will again tonight when I come home, I just know it. If I've really accomplished something in a day, then I feel great about wandering around the internet, lol.

Aw, me too! Thank you! I'll definitely report in tonight.

I really don't understand why they're so much more vivid when I'm on antibiotics. That is really strange, y'know?

I'm always grateful for people telling me that I'm allowed to relax when I'm sick (in spite of not having accomplished something, but just to get better) - so I'm telling you, too. :-)
