My dream this morning is the closest thing I have to a nightmare in years. And it was scary during the last second.
In it, I was at home...and home looked kind of like one of those abandoned ICBM silos that had since been converted into residences. (I hear your could buy those for a buck back then.)
Anyway, I was lounging at home...in the bedroom...in bed...listening to some tunes on a portable mp3 player (which I don't have in real life).
Suddenly, there was this small eagle that began hovering in front of me. It was a golden eagle and what was weird about it was the way it hovered. Instead of flapping its wings, this one hovered in mid-air...vertically! Its wings were still as its beak pointed straight up and its tail pointe straight down. The way it hovered, it looked like the head of a fish dangling in mid-air. And it gets weirder!
As it floated in mid-air, it seemed to sway side to side as if dancing the waltz. (Johann Strauss' Blue Danube Waltz would have made for great accompaniment.) The eagle did that for a couple of seconds. Then without warning, it fell to my chest! I thought it might have died or something! When I removed the eagle from my chest, it looked like a total wreck! It seemed like some of its body parts were missing...particuarly its head! No offense to all you eagles out there but...EUWGH!
After that, I placed the eagle on the bed next to me and...IT LEAPED INTO THE AIR!
I screamed....and woke up.
