More light hearted fun
What’s the weirdest dream you’ve ever had?
I’ll start, though mine was slightly more night terror than dream! One night last year I was dreaming that I was looking around my grandparents old house, except that there was an extra bit of house at the back, behind where the stairs were, so I went to explore it when suddenly a ghost jumped out and grabbed me by the wrists! I could physically feel something holding my wrists too, I remember physically shaking myself to wake up! Had to sleep with the door ajar for a few weeks afterwards too!
I had to come back to this thread with the dream I had last night!
I was helping some kind of charity by picking up and disposing of discarded hypodermic needles & syringes that were littering the gutters and drain covers on a road. But I was wearing sandles on my feet, so, predictably, I got jabbed in the big toe. After some discussion it was decided that, yes, I should get some emergency treatment, so off I went (I had to be quick as they were closing in 10 minutes!).
I eventually saw a GP around a dinner table. I had clumsily knocked over a bowl of large M&Ms, apologised and was picking them up & got told off a bit for wasting time. So the GP had a look at my toe which had only a small stab mark or two, and did some kind of operation. Suddenly, there were snakes of all sizes everywhere, and he pulled two snake/grub things about 2 inches long from inside my toe!
We all agreed it was a good job that I had gone for the emergency appointment, and the dream ended.
Wow! Your dream certainly went off piste somewhere along the lines! I love the way that our unconscious slots 'really' random situations into our dreams! Just imagine a needle stick injury causing snakes to appear out of the wound!
On a serious note I do remember having a needle stick injury at work several years ago, it was from an unknown source so I had to go on the PEP treatment for a month afterwards, that is seriously nasty medication to take! I was given anti sickness meds to take concurrently and I really needed them! Luckily all my bloods came back clear after 3 and 6 months though so no long term harm done!!!
Snakes....why'd it have to be snakes????
As it's been bumped - mine was fairly typical today - my wife and I had been invited to some corporate dinner event - we arrived early (naturally) and found the company was in financial trouble and nothing had been arranged - but something was being organised - could we wait. We sat in reception as others arrived and figured out there weren't enough seats - so we made a bee-line and got ourselves comfortable on these large, square chairs. The venue was moved to a massive farm house and, after lots of interaction, everyone was starting to take gentle recreational drugs. I remember things getting a bid odd from there on - but I was very interested in the architecture of the building - old-fashioned but with ultra-modern touches on multiple levels.
We decided to leave - the way back to the road passed lots of outbuildings which had lots of interesting vintage stuff in them. By the time I was at the road, I was with my daughter instead - she was carrying her falcon. Just up the road was a touristy-type village and one of the shops had a couple of large owls sitting outside on a big tree stump. A group of people came out of the trinket shop - they were going to do a ceremony for a couple of little trolls - they were being given their own Fairy Door on the stump to their new home - everyone was pleased - until the owls bent down and grabbed the trolls pulling their insides out through their mouths - at which point the trolls turned bright green and melted into a puddle.
I woke up slightly confused.
