Strange dreams...
I crashed early last night. Around 9pm or so. And had massively strange dreams all night long. Two I remember just snippets of:
Swimming with a really nice family in their pool while the son (about age 4) wanted to show how well he could swim. No matter what we did, he kept swimming headlong into walls.
Walking to an electronics store with the boyfriend and his friends. Weird balloon thingy was trying to take off and it had spikes and nastyness hanging from it. I helped it take off but it only floated to the other side of the lot and then tried to land on people to kill them.
But the third I remember more. It was some kind of boxing tournament, and a friend and I were entered and in the same bracket. Neither of us was expected to do well and we kept joking that if one of us got to the top of the bracket, we'd fight so-and-so from the other side. Never thinking we'd both get there.
We did (I dreamed all my fights, too) and we were set to fight against each other. I should mention this friend is less than 5 ft tall in real life and I could easily pick her up with one arm and throw her over my shoulder. The rounds were weird. First round we equally beat each other up. I remember being on my knees to be at eye level (the ref let me do it, it seems) and her beating the everloving crap out of my defense, and me throwing in a kidney punch every so often. After the rounds, we could rest for like.. 10min-whole day.
After the first round end, I went to my room and found a fruitbasket or something. I ignored it and then went to the bathroom and found a note saying I'd been poisoned and the guy had the antidote. I could take the stuff in the vial provided now and it would save my life... for now. But in order to get the antidote, I had to lose the fight. Naturally, since I didn't eat anything in the fruit basket, I wasn't poisoned. So I took the vial, and the note, to the ref. I can't remember what he did with it, but it was time for round 2.
Round 2 went much the same as round 1. After we split I went to the family pool thingy from the other dream and talked about how I was not having fun beating up my friend. I went back for round 3, and somehow I could now see the street and the like outside. I saw my friend's car coming down the street and then suddenly..... blow up.
I won the fight because my friend died. It was really really weird.
I never got to see what happened after that because I started having trouble staying asleep.
Weird weird dreams.
