Avoiding sleep due to a ghastly nightmare.

[FloridaJudy]

Ann Coulter chasing me through the Pentagon with a staple-gun threatening to nail my "tie-dyed, tree-hugging" butt to the wall.

Egad! I've got to give up spicy food for dinner!

1. I had a dream last night

that I was flying through the air and stone gargoyles were chasing after me. Kind of scary actually. Haven't had a nightmare for a while.

3. Lucid dream?

I'd turn and fight. I have... powers... in my dreams.

No, really, I have the ability to exert some crude control over my most lucid dreams. It's a lot of fun, because once I know I'm dreaming, well, I can do whatever the hell I want and it's as real as my sleeping mind can make it. VERY entertaining.

Although-

I once had a nightmare when I was a kid where I was teamed up with that commie-busting spy TV couple in the 80s (I can't remember the name of the series), and I got shot in the arm. In my dream, the bullet tunneled up under my skin halfway to my shoulder.

Imagine my surprise when I awoke to fine pain there, in the exact same place as my dream.

2. You think that's bad...

I've been suffering all day today as a consequence of eating spicy food. No need to paint a picture. :hurts:

As for your nightmare, I wouldn't be able to sleep for a week straight after that. :shudder:
