reoccuring nightmare

i've noticed that during the past four to eight years, i've had a reoccuring nightmare. one that requires a blog entry.

once a month or so i dream about putting in contacts. but this isnt the normal morning routine -- these contacts are freaking huge. in the dream they can be anywhere from quarter-sized to bigger than my face. and i'm usually in a rush, or there's people waiting for me, or i'm late for something....and i can't for the life of me figure out how to stick these gigantic contacts in my eyes. how is this physically going to work? does all the extra contact have somewhere to go inside my head? i have no idea.

i usually wake up from this dream in a cold sweat with my heart beating very fast.



i think at least half of the nightmares i have are incredibly stupid affairs like this one that my brain just attaches a feeling of horror to. and then i wake up insanely scared over nothing...and i can't shake the terror for about a half hour even though i know it's stupid. gigantic contacts. being stalked by rikki lake, talk show host.

what will my brain come up with next?

I am quite postive that I too have had the dream about the oversized contacts.

Quite positive.

but does it leave you feeling terrified and unable to fall asleep again?
