The black cat

The snow collects the good with the bad, as can be seen when it melts. This blog is my snow, holding onto my experiences.

The black cat
05.16.06 (8:37 am)   [edit]

This is an edit of a post I did earlier today that I've deemed boring:

Last night was a bit surreal, if not abnormal.  Class went well- the students really grasped the vocabulary and how to use it correctly, etc.- (it was about drug stores/shopping) and I believe they had a good time.  Next Monday is the last class I have with them (with the following Thursday being their 'graduation.'  We'll do something special, and maybe I'll bring a treat.  That was normal- what followed may be normal for Amber, but not me.  The school's in a dangerous area, so I either drive or am picked up from there, so Amber picked me up- with the two boys she was babysitting.  We went to McDonald's, and I got a look into Amber's world.  She works with kids 7 days a week.  I hardly ever do, but they are interesting, if nothing else...  The evening progresses into watching the boys hack away at a small tree that was blocking the tree and driveway.  The fact that they lived in a sort of forest made it have an edge of fantasy to it.  Nothing spectacular happened, except that the family owns a young dog and cat, and they were wonderful.  I can't resist happy, friendly dogs, and cats have grown on me.  I used to think that cats are snobbish and independent, but they can like people, and like being petted.  I dozed off, and woke up to the cat sleeping on my lap- and that made the night better.  Hurray for furry animals!!

I intially went on to talk about personalities, but that's nothing new.  I posted on it May '05, also.  I don't want to define myself or anyone-limiting them to a generic description, so I'll lay off for a little while- but it's so hard!! I want to get to know others better, and one way is by categorizing and comparing them.  and a guy (joking, I'm sure) asked me out to lunch- a guy that hands out newspapers at the metro.  Isn't life fun?  People are so interesting sometimes.

Amber has strep, and a crummy job.

and my dreams last night had something to do with a tiny baby I was babysitting, who had a good tuft of dark hair, and fit in my car's console.  There were definite adventures, which included leaving the baby in the car, freaking out when I remembered, but sighing with relief when she was OK.  I also had a big bottle of hair dye to dye the baby's hair red, but I initially thought, "What a waste- I should have just mixed a small amount and saved some to dye more later- she hardly has any hair!" and later thought, "Why would I even consider dying a baby's hair!  That's so dangerous!!"  These thoughts were thought while dreaming.

I have weird thoughts while dreaming too - the most often is, "What the heck?" I have a reoccuring nightmare where i'm sleeping and look up and a big tarantula is dangling above me and i ask myself, "how on earth did a tarantula get in here?"

So what do spiders/tarantulas mean to you? What do they represent? This baby, for instance, probably showed up because I've seen and been thinking about little kids recently, combined with the lizard the boys were cradling last night.
My nightmares usually are about fire- and me trying to run away. The ultimate fear-giving nightmare seemed demonic or something- something very dark that spoke all sorts of lies to me and really shook me up. The second scariest was having no voice- no words coming out.

Tarantulas don't spin webs, though :p
