So, this being my first entry I feel it is only appropriate to first declare that I never thought I would have a blog. I never wanted to be one of THOSE people, but I finally realized my ego, and ensuing thoughts, are just too big for myself. My dream. I have spent the last week analyzing a dream I had a few days ago. It began in a comfortable setting, my home. Only it was shifted one block over. It was morning. Spring. I was enjoying the squirrels in a nearby tree doing their squirrel thing. My dad left for work, and I said goodbye. I began to get ready, and eventually leave, for work. I decided to walk (even though my job is like 15 mi away). Naturally i was soon very late and decided to run. Shortly after running I noticed, on the upcoming block, a giant (like from Harry Potter) snake. It was all black with bright yellow stripes. Not wanting to be bothered by this potential pest, I crossed the street and tried to avoid him. Well, he saw me and began coming towards me. I continued to run. faster. Eventually he chased me into the Four Seasons Hotel. I made my way to the basement of the hotel and quickly went to work on the thermostat. The idea was to make it really hot so the snake would be too uncomfortable. But then I remembered that snakes like heat. I turned the thermo all the way down to make it chilly. Sadly, my hand became stuck to the thermo. I decided it was time to call the police on my cell. As I was explaining, quite calmly, the situation the elevator door opened up. It was the snake. He lunged. He bit. I died. Then I woke up. Interestingly, I wasnt scared during this dream -- I was fascinated!
I have done some research on dreams and snakes. And basically, in all cultures, a snake is a very bad thing to have in a dream. However I did find one positive aspect -- snakes can be viewed as a "rebirth" element, as they shed their skin. So i am thinkign I need to find a new job or at the very least make some changes.
