i just had the weirdest nightmare of my life. i was at home, and my parents
+ [my brother] were going out somewhere. i was supposed to go out on my own later
and meet up with them.
so, i was at home completely alone. the time came for
me to go, but everytime i would try to go out, i would forget something and
have to go back. this happened what felt like dozens of times.
i started to
feel increasingly more anxious and lonely as the process repeated.
in addition, there were things outside that started to make me paranoid,
dogs, hornets, suspicious-looking people. it was getting later in the day
too which worried me. all of this added up made me nervous to the point of
having a full-fledged breakdown.
eventually i go upstairs and decide to just
block myself in and hide. however, i see a faint silhouette peering out from
a storage room. as i approach to investigate, i can suddenly make out the
figure. it's shrek. donkey closes the door behind me. i immediately woke up.
