• I think I had two dreams last night, but I’m not sure as they kind of blended together. In the first, I was watching a truck fly down wet roads, slucing side to side without a care for proper road safety. It was transporting drugged human beings to some undisclosed place for slaughter. There were so many in the back, they had to stand shoulder to shoulder in water that was ankle deep. And they swayed and slid into one another as the truck went screeching round curves and skidding on the wet road.
  
  Then I dreamed of myself and that there was a giant black beetle and worm in my throat. I kept coughing and there were tiny baby worm/beetles in my phlegm so I tried not to cough on anyone. First I spat up the beetle which was dead. No one knew about the worm though. They took the beetle and put it in a bag in an empty fridge.
  
  The beetle came up without trouble, but I choked and struggled to spit up the worm. It didn’t want to come out because then it would die. Eventually I managed to get it out. It wasn’t like an earthworm. It was about the same size as the beetle, that is as long as my arm, hand to elbow, and about as wide as my head at the top and tapering to a point at the end. It was a grayish flesh tone, like a corpse, and wrinkled, and of course, once it was up, it was dead. They put it in the fridge as well, and for some reason, it stuck to the wall and began to decompose very quickly. When we checked on it again, the body had fallen in to reveal several round gray balls inside which I knew to be eggs. These would hatch and cause a lot of trouble unless they were destroyed, but I didn’t stay asleep long enough to get that done.
