I finally had the dream...

natsamjosh Feb 18, 2008 10:46 AM

There was a thread about snake dreams a while ago, so I thought I'd share this. I had a dream that a Gaboon Viper was loose at my wife's office, and after trying to catch it for hours, I finally trapped it in the bathroom of all places. Then somehow the office magically morphed into a restaurant. I told the restaurant manager they better put an "Out of Order" sign on the bathroom door, since I was afraid someone would walk in and get whacked by the Gaboon Viper. But the manager refused, saying it would be "bad for business" if they didn't have the bathroom accessible. I kept pleading desperately, but to no avail. Then all of a sudden I was in my house, and the snake was loose in my garage. I went in the garage (with a snake hook) to try to find it. I spotted it across the garage, and it came at me really quickly. I pinned the head down with the snake hook, and was debating whether to kill it or not. Needless to say, I was terrified in the dream. Anyway, that's when I woke up. Very strange. Hopefully my next dream will be a good one, maybe where I get a nice Rainbow Boa from one of you guys.

Thanks,
Ed

Ed,
...You need to let my mother tell you about coming out into the garage and finding my brother and I trying to get a BIG Diamondback out from under the work bench and back into the garbage can it had escaped from. I was about 14 at the time and mom looked and then turned around and went back into the house. She still tells this story.

Hey Jeff,

Wow, great story. Your mom must have been furious. For how many months were you grounded?

Thanks,
Ed

I open up to the forum with a personal issue, and wham, you slam me. That's it, you're out of the will again. You'll get jack, but not Jack.
