Cool As A Cucumber!

As I stood there I now knew the horror that was in front of me. The strange man began to move around the white truck towards me. The only thing I could do was shift around the truck to where he couldn’t get a clear shot. All I could hear was the faint screams of my friends, and their panick-y voices as they called the cops to come to my rescue. It all happened to fast. I tried to get away, but as I moved right thinking he was going to go left he changed his direction and then fired his weapon at me. Again, I heard my friends screaming but all I could think was “What are they screaming about? He missed…” until I realized, he didn’t miss. I was bleeding a river of blood from the side of my stomach, and the next thing I knew the cops were on there way to my aid.

What the hell? That was my dream. Very odd. And after the dream-cops helped dream-me, I acted as if getting shot by some strange man was nothing. I woke up and the only thing that came to mind was “What the hell?” very odd dream. Out of curiousity I went on google.com to see what this dream meant and here’s the information that I found (some discretion is advised!):

To see a gun in your dream, symbolizes aggression, anger, and potential danger. You may be dealing with issues of passiveness/aggressiveness and authority/dependence. Alternatively, a gun can represent the penis and male sexual drive. Thus the gun may mean power and impotence.

To dream that someone is shooting you with a gun, suggests that you are experiencing some confrontation in your waking life. You may feel victimized in some situation.

The guy part made me laugh, seemed very random. Although, I don’t really feel victimized … oh well. Have any interesting/weird dreams lately? My friend Rachel left for Texas already. Aww, I am going to miss her but I can not WAIT until she comes back for Christmas break. She’s an awesome friend, so I can’t wait to see her again. Over the weekend I made a video of my friends and I, which I uploaded on youtube.com which you can view here. Video features music by Michelle Branch and the ending was played by me on piano haha.

Now for the random part of the blog. Do you ever ask weird questions only to find there is no answer? Or the answer is just as weird as the question? I tend to ask random questions all of the time, especially at work. Here are a few questions that I have yet to answer.

  • In the Wizard of Oz, at the end when Dorothy throws the bucket of water on the witch and she dies? That part confuses me. How did the witch bathe if water was poison to her? This girl at work and I decided on these: the water was holy water and that’s why she died, she was magical so she made herself smell pretty, and lastly she kept a lot of air fresheners in her house.
  • You know the saying “If life gives you lemons, make lemonade”? Well okay, but shouldn’t life also give me water and sugar to make the lemonade actually taste good? Some ice would also be nice as well.
  • Also the saying “cool as a cucumber” makes me picture a cucumber with sunglasses on trying to look all cool. Not really a question, but I find it amusing haha. I even made a pretty picure of Mr. Cool Cucumber (below, click on it for larger view)

Have any of your own to add to the “list”? I tend to ask stuff like that at work a lot and people tend to laugh and just ask me “Where do you come up with this stuff?” haha. Anyways, this turned into an odd and somewhat long blog heh. Thanks for the comments on the new theme, glad people like it, and comments have already been returned. For those who are wondering: Almost finished screen capping Underworld Evolution, my FTP program is still not working but I found another way to upload and edit files for my website.

edit2: Screencaps are back, and I am now using an amazing script. Working on rest of caps now, should be up in a day or 2 thanks (8/12/06 @ 4:47pm)
edit: Screencaps are currently down, I am working on getting a script installed for it for better viewing. Thanks.
