newnumber6 | Dream Foo, in which I give Castro a heart attack and there are spiders everywhere!

Okay, so the first thing I can remember in the dream was kittens. Out in the backyard. Only it started snowing, but for some reason we could only save one of them (maybe the others ran away?), so we were worried they'd freeze to death.

Anyway, we were at my Grandmother's house and the only place we could keep the kitten was in the basement, so we went down there. Except there was some sort of UN meeting going on there. My Dad was the President or Prime Minister or something. The only other person I can remember being there that I knew who they were, was Castro. Anyway, my dad got into a little fight with his wife, my stepmom, nothing serious, but Castro was listening in as though it was a state secret.

So I decided to sit beside Castro casually to sort of break his concentration. We started talking, I'm not sure how exactly, but he asked me if I carried a gun. I told him I didn't, and that I didn't think many people in Canada did. He thought that was foolish.

Anyway, somehow we got into a discussion about my Dad, and Castro disapproved because of his wife. He said my Dad should never have married an Adulturess. Apparently in Castro's religion/philosophy (and I'm aware this probably bears no resemblance to reality), even if a women is divorced if she is ever with another man again it is still adultury.

Anyway, I got a little annoyed at that and told him, angrily, that I didn't really care that she was married in the past, all that mattered was that my Dad married a good woman. Then I added, "Strictly speaking, I don't even care that he married a woman..." and then turned aside to my Dad and stepmom (who are still painfully in the dark ages about a couple topics because of their religion), "And yeah, I know what you're going to say, but that's not my point and I don't want to get into a huge thing about it." Then I turned back to Castro, only it looked like he had keeled over and had a heart attack or a stroke or something. So everyone rushed up to try to get medical help or his aides (who were gone... one I believe I later saw playing a video game). We all ran upstairs, me last of all, and because I was last I was the only one to notice this huge spider-web growing over the side. I hadn't noticed it before and thought it was really interesting and tried to get someone to come look but nobody did, so I tore down the web just in case the spiders were poisonous and someone ran into it accidentally. Then I went outside and noticed another huge spider-web there between the top of the porch and the railing. When I looked closer, there were dozens of spiders all working together to spin the web super-fast.

So I tore this web too and tried to collect the spiders in a little jar, both for later study and so they wouldn't spin a web while I was gone - they were that fast. After I did that I went back inside and there was another huge spider-web in the hallway I just left, so I had to tear it down again and again collect the spiders who were operating in some sort of strange hive mind.

Then I believe I went back downstairs to check on Castro but I can't really recall how that turned out because I woke up.

*shrug* Your guess is as good as mine.

Woo! Net blip made me lose the entry but LJ's autosave/restore kicked in and I got about half of it back!
