late nite 'mergency

Apr 04, 2004 12:09

around 1am this morning ryan called me into his room sounding very distressed. ashley had suddenly started vomiting and complaining about a severe pain in her stomach. she couldn't keep her eyes open and was very unresponsive, often not responding to us at all and usually only responding with "it hurts so bad." she could barely move at all and we were freaked out and didn't know what to do. i drove them to the emergency room and stayed for awhile, then came back home so ryan could clean up the vomit and take his car to the hospital. turns out she has a cyst on one ovary, a mass on the other (that the doctors can't identify---this is the main concern right now) and a urinary tract infection. while we were waiting in the emergency room ryan was talking about how she never went to the doctor because she was always afraid they were going to tell her something was wrong with her. WELL DUH THATS WHAT DOCTORS ARE FOR. she said that if she didn't know that anything was wrong with her then it wouldn't ever affect her. looks like she was wrong. i hope everything turns out ok...and i hope this changes her mind about doctors.

last night's dream: beginning is pretty vague. i was driving by the shelbyville exit and the sky was very apoocalyptic-looking. suddenly i was aware that a giant spider was attacking a dennys off the exit. i drove into the country and stopped at a bus barn where i was suddenly the comic strip character crankshaft. i was trying to file a complaint about working overtime and having to dodge giant spiders on the job but some large woman kept cutting in front of me. i got back in my car and started to drive away, always on the lookout for the giant spider. suddenly i was in evansville (though i really don't know what it looks like) driving through a road with a gravestones all around me and a large city to my right. i was at the top of a hill and the city sat in a valley, so i started driving down the hill towards the city. i got on a bridge that went in an arch over the city and as i was approaching the peak, the giant spider flew over the city and landed on the bridge (apparantly it's a mechanical spider, that's why it can fly). then suddenly i am on the ground running around the city trying to avoid the spider. at one point i was right by its legs and it had speakers on its legs that were emitting sounds of women and children, to confuse heroic men and lure them to their death. the city was in utter turmoil, with people everywehere. news teams were trying to get a piece of the action by launching footballs with cameras in them across the city. people would catch them and then they would explode. at this point in the dream i turned into hunter s. thompson and i had a daughter (wtf?). we found away out through a subway tunnel and were working our way through when i woke up.
