nap #1: very strange
i am home today. my primary goal is to nap. I will not allow myself to contemplate secondary goals.
during the last part of nap #1, i experienced an extended period of dreaming while being or trying to be awake. i was definitely in sleep paralysis, yet trying to move, a feeling that i hate. first i was trying to get my glasses from my bedside table, but i could not see. i tried many things to trick myself into seeing, none of which worked.
then there was a spider in the room. then it was a GIANT SPIDER and moses was holding me in front of him as protection from the GIANT SPIDER, which is not how it is supposed to work. the cat is supposed to protect me from all eight and six-legged things, giant or otherwise. living things with more than two pairs of legs are supposed to be his specialty. given that i was paralyzed with sleep, this was especially distressing.
then the most distressing thing of all happened– i heard a baby crying very close by, possibly in my room. i couldn't move to pin down the location of the child.
then i woke up, starvinghungry. i am going to q-shack now.
