But I digress. So now onto your regularly schedualed topic.
Okay, so the other day I had yet another dream involving bugs. Now I know the standard, assumed meaning of bugs in your dreams is that you will soon come into money. However that is not the case with me. This I know.
I have, over the last couple of months, had 4 or 5 dreams, where I am semi-lucid, and dealing with bugs. Big bugs, little bugs, fat mushy bugs, and the often ugly, hard shelled bugs.
This is really starting to annoy me. The most recent case involved the last two mentioned types in the above paragraph. I was I believe in my house, walking around. At this point in time I was not lucid. At some point in time I ran my fingures accross my left earlobe and discovered a small bump. Oddly this is what triggered my partial lucidness.
I went to find a mirror. Which I found in my room, but in "real" life there is no full length mirror in my room. So I am standing in front of the mirror looking at this bump. Admitatedly I am a picker. A person who picks at the various bumps, pimples, wounds, ect. So I did what it was in my nature to do and gave the bump a squeeze. As I did this a protrusion formed that was roughly 8 or 10 inches long (20 to 26 cm). I knew that this was not right. So I reached up with my left hand and grabbed this thing that was hanging out of my head.
I gave it a little tug. When I did this I got and incredibly sharp pain in my brain and let go of the object. It begain to move around and wiggle. I tilted my head to that side and this thing just kinda slid out and landed on the floor. It kinda looked like a grub, but it had a face, eyes, and a mouth with little teeth in it. This really freaked me out.
However things were not over. As I was watching this thing on the floor another creature fell out of the hole that was remaining from the first one. This one was green, about the same length. It also had two arms with pinchers on the ends, and was a hard shelled bug. This one first landed on my shoulder and I kinda smacked it away.
I had a sudden idea at this point. I thought about saving them. So I looked around for a couple of countainers because I didn't want to put them both in the same one. (always seperate your prisoners)... The idea behind doing this was so that I could look at them when I woke up, and then show them to other people. I knew that I was asleep. But it seemed perfectly logical that I could save these things in the containers and have them when I woke up. Don't know why this seemed reasonable.
(the story drags on)
When I went to pick up the grub like creature I noticed that it was considerabley smaller then when it first fell out. It seemed to be shrivaling and dying because it was no longer inside a "host". This puzzled me but I went to pick it up anyway. So I could at least save the body. About half way through picking this thing up is when I awoke.

This recent dream is only one of several other similar type dreams. I am starting to feel that some how I an infested with these things. This as you can imagin is a troubling thought.
For any of you who made it this far.
1. What do you think the bugs mean?
2. Have you had similar problems?
3. I knew I was asleep, so why save them?
4. How many of you think that I am crazy? (be honest)
