Exhaustion

I must have been exhausted!

This morning I looked at a little sign and thought I saw my name.  I told my mom that I didn't know my name was on that sign and she said it wasn't.  I looked again and I couldn't find my name anywhere.  I tried tilting it every which way, to get an angle where I could see my name again.  Every time I tilted the sign I saw different words.  I thought that was really odd and put the sign down and just sat there puzzled.  Then it hit me.  I was dreaming!

I woke up and started getting out of bed.  I saw something move across the floor and little kitty pounced after it.  I thought, "oh great, a mouse!"  Only when I really opened my bleary eyes I could see that it wasn't a mouse, but a spider.  I got a stick and whacked it.  Then I saw another spider over in the other corner.  I whacked that and then I saw that I must have hit a spider egg sack because there were hundreds of tiny spiders all pouring out.  I thought I'd better hurry and get the vacuum cleaner to suck them all up before they disappeared under everything. I'm not afraid of spiders, so I didn't mind.  I started vacuuming and vacuuming.  I kept thinking I got them all, but then I'd see more.   I couldn't figure out where all the spiders were coming from, and then I realized I was still dreaming.

I woke up and got out of bed and walked out into the living room.  Mike was out there and he showed me some improvements he had made to the house.  There was an added kitchen on the back of our kitchen that was just for catering.  I was puzzled about why we needed another kitchen because I didn't want to do any catering. Then I saw that this kitchen was set up for my friend's catering business.  Her name was even engravened on the stop top.  I, of course, realized I was still dreaming and tried to get up. 

It was like I was stuck in a dream warp.  I would see another scene that didn't make any sense, realize I was dreaming and then try to wake up only to immediately find myself in another dream scene.  I finally was able to open my eyes and stumble out of bed.  I've been up for an hour and I'm just now starting to feel awake.
