Boogeymen

Lindsay, Love, you will never be pushy! I just didn't realize it's been a week since my last post!! Please feel free to kick me into gear anytime!

I had the weirdest dream last night. I was out walking around the block by myself, like I do sometimes when Cathy can't walk with me, and this giant black guy was following me. Looked like a linebacker, but with beefy cheeks, crooked teeth and scary eyes. He kind of looked like a cartoon monster I've seen, but can't remember where. Perhaps Grape Ape, but scarier.

I thought I'd lost him by the time I got to a neighbor's house. I didn't see him anywhere. I ran inside, locked the doors, pulled the curtains and was telling my neighbor all about it when we heard three raps on the front door.

She opened it and...guess who? He filled the whole door frame. She shrank away and he came in after me. I started screaming, and...

All of a sudden he backed into a corner, shrank into a ball and was fending off...I have no idea what. I couldn't see anything. Everything looked perfectly normal to me. I stopped screaming and no longer felt fear. I just watched this hulk start screaming, "What is this? What is in this supernatural house?"

And then I woke up, and my alarm clock was flashing 2:2-something, right in front of my face. And I was hot. (Which explains it.) I got up and looked at my cell phone. 5:30 a.m. I walked through the house to make sure there were no big beefy monster-looking men in my house (like what was I going to do if there was??) Checked the locks on the doors, looked at the clocks...somehow the power had been off.

All was well and, me liking my beauty sleep as much as I do, I set two alarms, laid down and went back to sleep for the whopping 20 more minutes I was able to get.

Hey, tonight can I get a Johnny Depp look-a-like running after me intending good things? Please?
