h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I've been having some really peculiar dreams lately.

Night before last, I had a dream that my lungs were infested with bugs. I coughed and spat bits of lung and squirmy bugs into the sink - that's when I woke up. Last night, I had a continuation of the dream from the night before (which never happens.) I dreamt that I was holding somebody hostage (threatening to infect them with my nasty lung bugs,) and a person in a biohazard suit came after me. They grabbed my arm, and I exploded in a cloud of bugs. I don't usually have dreams this awful or creepy... I don't know whether I'm reading the wrong books, or watching the wrong television shows - or maybe just not doing the right drugs...

ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!


Now I just hope nasty lung bug dreams aren't contagious!

I hope so too! Fortunately, last night I didn't dream anything (that I could remember.) I usually like dreams, but this morning I was pleased to not have any.

I think I've figured it out... my gynecologist took me off OrthoCyclin, which is a birth control pill, and put me on Ortho-TriCyclin, which is a birth control pill with reduced hormones the first and second week. This makes sense - I always have strange dreams the week before my monthlies... This also explains why my breasts have been sore all month, but it doesn't keep it from being annoying.
