ten fingers, ten toes.

no. this is not a baby post. this is a "i'm glad i still have all my digits because of the hypothermia that set in about two hours ago" post. seriously. it's no wonder that i'm typing so poorly. i can't feel the keyboard. at all. it's bad when i look forward to going to work because of the functional heater that i can use till my heart's a-blazing because i don't have to pay the electric bill.

wait. maybe that's the real reason we're in a budget crunch? because we over-use our heaters at school? nah. there's got to be other reasons...

bad budgetary issues aside, i'm just happy to have all my fingers and toes. i have cold feet again, or still, but it's not so bad that i can't warm back up.

anyway. let's talk about the dream i had last night. yes. dinosaurs. lots of them. i have developed this odd little fascination with them in the last year and a half or so. it all started with the original "raptor" dream. i've had a few dino dreams here and there, but mostly they leave my head before i wake up. the ones that i do remember stick with me.

for example: the dream i had last night involved a conference room, a meeting of some sort and the idea that the raptor herd had morphed into two distinct herds. now. i don't know what all that would mean in a realistic sense, but i can tell you that everyone in the room was pretty upset at the idea of two raptor herds. i can understand where they're coming from! did you ever see jurassic park?? they attack FROM THE SIDES! these two raptor herds somehow worked TOGETHER and took down a tyrannosaur. this idea is terrifying. how did the raptors in my dreams get strong enough to take down a t-rex? the original bad boy of the dino world. he's the image you get in your head when you think about jurassic park.

needless to say, this dream has been coming back at me for the last 8 hours with a vengeance. i'm back to being paranoid before walking around corners. locking myself in a dark bathroom (i couldn't get the light switch fast enough before the door closed) at school today was hard. you may think that this is all idiocracy, but believe me when i say: they're named "terrible lizards" for a reason.
