First Iguanas, now Zombies.
Listen, I try pretty hard to make sure this isnt a hippie woo woo dream diary, but i think it's interesting that this follows last nights dream.
Before I start though, I need to explain something. I tend to think that the things that happen to me obviously happen to everyone, (since I'm the center of the universe and all, right? RIGHT???), but I have frequently been proven wrong. So I should explain that my dreams come in episodes, sometimes several weeks apart.
A few weeks ago, I had a dream about zombies. It was scary, because you didnt kill them the way you kill regular old graveyard undead type zombies. These zombies were killed by grabbing them by the wrists and holding on as tight as you can, both their wrists clamped together with both your hands around them. In our last episode, my family (who is not actually my family. they all have dark hair and talk funny. the mom and dad are whitey pants but my brother is a pacific islander of some sort. we had a discussion about it last time.) and I were the only ones who knew how to kill the zombies, and we killed a shitload of them. The community was decimated but the dream came to a nice little ending.
So last night, my fake family and I are having dinner and opening presents. Then everything gets all zombie again. It's a little tense, and the dream is kind of scary. A few minutes later, my brother starts acting really weird, so I squeeze his wrists together and he drops dead. Anyhow, I don't remember enough of the middle meat now to make this a normal story, so I'll get to my point. ( the dream ended with my mom taking a bite out of my foot as I was jumping out the bathroom window.)
I'm not afraid of zombies. I love zombie movies because you get to see actors playing zombies, which is awesome and more creative than most people think. I've written several songs where zombies are the central theme. I have no problem with zombies. However, I think ferrets are possibly the creepiest little animals on the face of the earth, and iguanas are oversized freaks who should have been wiped out when the asteroid hit. The iguana dream? makes sense. Zombies? No sense. no sense at all.
