Vivid? I Would Say Crazy.

So, thank you Sarah for reminding me of another weird thing that is happening to me. My dreams have gone from infrequent and dull to beyond vivid and mostly crazy. I will highlight a few of the really good ones for you.

First, my best friend got kidnapped. Don't ask me why no one else was up to the task of rescuing him, but the job fell to me. And in order to get him back, the kidnapper didn't want money or any normal ransom, because that would be too easy. No, he wanted me to come find him. Well, turns out I felt like I was in a Nancy Drew novel combined with a math class. I had to solve a bunch of riddles, a few logic problems and follow a Fabbonici number sequence to find the kidnapper's hideout. And when I finally got there, giant spiders attacked, a pack of wild dogs tried to eat me and Danny didn't want to be rescued.

Another good one, I led a group of tourists to an island outside of Alaska to stay on a boat. Which happened to turn into a floating resort hotel as soon as we got there. And of course my friend Ang was there. She almost died from a concussion and they had to airlift her to a ship owned by the Navy to have a doctor save her life. Once again, very strange.

But possibly my favorite was the one where I joined a serial killer clan. Yes, I know this is contradictory to human behavior theory. Most serial killers hunt alone. But we were a group. We had decided to kill this woman because she was selling steroids to kids. Seemed like a good idea at the time. But the night we decided to plot our attack, she lost us at the giant carousel. And then we put the job off for a few days because the hotel we were staying at had a really great spa and we all needed haircuts and our teeth whitened.

Don't ask me. I don't come up with this crap. Somehow my subconscious is putting all of this together at night. What's really weird is I have at least one or two of these dreams EVERY night. I didn't know I had so much randomness going on inside my brain.

And yes, I know this is another of those "normal" things during pregnancy. This one luckily is more entertaining than annoying.

PS: Happy Friday the 13th! :)
