Gardening, Axe Murders, and Vicoden-driven Nightmares

[cabenson]

I guess this pain medication is working. I was a lot more mobile today and even ventured outside while Mrs CB was trying to remove some forsythia bushes from the garden.


Me: You know, if you used my little saw and hatchet, you might have an easier time cutting through those roots.

Mrs CB: I don't know if I wanna-

Me: Just pretend they are Republicans.

Mrs: CB Bring me Teh Axe!

After finally getting the roots out of the ground, Mrs CB tells me,

Mrs. CB: You have some rust on this axe.

Me: Naw, baby. That's dried blood walks away whistling the "Lizzie Borden" theme song.

Vicoden is a strange painkiller. While it helps my manage the discomfort, I was hit with nightmare after nightmare last night. The kind where you have to force yourself awake just to make them stop. And I tried to keep myself from going back to sleep. I almost went into the spare room and slept with Mrs CB (who was letting me have the bed to myself so I wouldn't kick her with my spasms could stretch out) because I was THAT freaked out. Maybe aqua_blurr can lend her wank to it.


I was dreaming that Mrs. CB and I were watching the stars from our front window when we saw these odd flashing lights in the sky. As the lights grew closer, I could make out 20-30 red emergency vehicles tumbling in the sky, falling closer and closer to the earth. A paramedic truck was on course to hit our bedroom, and the cats were in there. I couldn't run back into the house to save them, and all I could envision was the fiery explosion when the trucks began to land. The truck landed, upright, with it's bumper right at our window. No explosion. I woke up to Bruin trying to bring up a hairball. My take on the dream...besides the drugs? I am reading "102 Minutes" about 9/11...and I don't think I am emotionally ready to tackle it just yet.

And this is not the first time I have had a dream like this. Not long ago, I dreamed that I was at a military base waiting to welcome back a platoon of soldiers from Iraq. All of these families were waving banners and went nuts when the saw the transport plane appear in the air. Suddenly, the plane turned into a large semi-truck and fell to the earth, killing the returning soldiers in front of their families. I really need to quit watching "Air Emergency" and "Seconds to Disaster", huh?
