rodents (rats and mice to be specific)

deepfry must be eating too much spicy food lately. these are her dreams.

i have dreamt of rodents (rats and mice) two out of the last three nights. in dream one, i was sitting on a counter island in a kitchen, circled by a rat. every time the rat got closer, it got bigger. if it actually got onto the table, it grew faster. this happened a few times but i was able to push it off. but it persisted, though i'm not sure why it was trying to get onto the counter. at one point it grew to the size of a large dog. eventually, i got an idea. i took a jar filled partly with water and trapped the rat in there. i shook the jar in order to drown the rat. luckily, the jar was a Friday the 13th (as in the movie) jar, and anything in the jar was totally shredded into little bits. so the rat, in addition to drowning, was also torn apart into bits (its liver, at one point, floated to the top). i went to throw it into the garbage, but the cans were gone, so instead i had to leave it sitting on top of a small white box in the garbage area. i woke up at that point, but i'm pretty sure that if i hadn't, the rat would have somehow come back to life and come after me again.

in dream two, last night, i was at home with a., and we discovered a mouse. we went to get rid of it and found about four more mice. we got them just outside the door. a. picked them up and threw them across the street, but there were more mice, all different colors and sizes. we couldn't get rid of them!

the end.
