I was on the moon driving with Kristin. I turned and saw a gigantic saturn and a sky filled with stars. She laughed at my amazement. A spider jumped on my leg and latched its teeth in. I brushed it off, but it jumped right back onto my thigh. I brushed it off and stepped on it, but it would not die. I was at a gas station. I asked the man I ( Read more... )

In my dream I was suspended from high school for some minor misbehavior. The high school made a new rule, though-every student suspended was to be put to death.
