Ever suddenly remember a dream you had the night before?
Ever suddenly remember a dream you had the night before? I just remembered that last night I had a dream about being trapped in a huge submerged building with two pliosaurs, one bigger than the other, like possibly a Kronosaurus and a Liopleurodon. There were other people there too being picked off by the pliosaurs, while I tried not to be noticed.
This fits with my general nightmare theme of being completely helpless in a dangerous situation. Like stabbing a guy attacking me and it doesn't do anything to him, or shooting at a guy chasing me and I can't hit him no matter how close he is.
Maybe had something to do with our party fighting a plesiosaur while playing Hollow Earth last night.
Anyway, dreams are weird.
It's a magical liopleurodon Charlie!!! It'll show us the way to candy mountain!
ReplyDeleteI like how your dreams specify genus, not merely "big underwater dinosaur thing".
ReplyDeleteYour's don't?
ReplyDeleteSadly no, although I seem to dream mostly about people (or Homo sapiens for this discussion). Although I did dream about a plucky little parakeet (Melopsittacus undulatus) with an important job a while back….
ReplyDeleteI guess I'm surprised you don't dream about bacteria.
ReplyDeleteDude… I'm strictly Euteleostomi, thank you very much.
ReplyDeleteI had to google that. Hangs head in shame.
ReplyDeleteDoes it make you feel any better that it's way less specific? Because I feel a bit guilty about the granularity of it all.
ReplyDeleteAnd… that's a very science-nerd thing to feel guilty about. Granularity. Of taxonomy. Maybe we can call that a truce.
