DREAM SERIES: ONE HELL OF A DREAM

   I often have these wild dreams that I share with my husband.  He's amazed at how detailed they are,  or the fact that I even remember them! Anyway, I'm up at 6 am on a saturday because the dream I had was so intense.  It was like Crocodile Dundee meets Jurassic Park meets The Beverly Hillbillies. WILD! I swear I'm probably supposed to make movies from these.  Anyway, here we go.


  So we take a family trip to the zoo.  However, this was not like any regular zoo.  The animals were all free.  And these weren't regular zoo animals either.  It was like a mix between pre-historic animals and the normal sized animals.  I distinctly remember seeing a pride of lions and one of the females was ridiculously huge and she was playing with a gigantic boulder.  The ground shook when the boulder landed on the ground. I imagine it sounded like a tree falling.
  There were also like 3 ft hight snakes that had to be as long as my townhouse complex.  So quite naturally they are going after huge prey.  Well the huge prey I saw falling victim to these snakes were humans! Why didn't we try to leave? 
  Oh back to the lions, when I first saw them is when I also had my first encounter with a humongous gorilla. I don't think you understand, this thing was on a King Kong level.  You could hear it stalking us. The bushes swayed ever so gently whenever he got close.  To see him made my heart drop! So we ran.
  We head up a hill as fast as we could go.  Now it's just my sister-in-law, myself, and our older daughters.  We see a group of people running around in a mad panic at the top of  the hill, but more importantly, there is a car! An occupied car, but a car nonetheless.  Selfish me hops in the the car with a scared little girl followed by my sister-in-law, then the girls. How horrible are we? 
  We take off up the hill, I don't know why we went up even more because I insisted we go down.  Quite naturally we run into a dead end.  There was a man there to help give us directions and we take them, but for some reason we are back on foot.  Guess who else was back, the gorilla!  So now we're trying out run the gorilla, which is an impossible task, and end up being face to face with it in the middle of nowhere.  The girls are about 5 feet away from me, because now it's just me and the gorilla.  I don't know why people always disappear in my dreams.
  All of a sudden a man jumps in between me and the gorilla.  He's yelling at it, as if that's going to make it back off.  Then we step closer to the girls and motion for them to get behind me.  They start running over and the gorilla swipes up the little girl that was in the car and tosses her somewhere, poor thing.  We are extremely terrified at this point.  The gorilla is yelling and gesturing at us, we're screaming bloody murder so we make another run for it.  
  Somehow me and my savior lose each other.  The girls and I make it to some muddy tunnel that the gorilla can't get over or through, and we end up on the safe side.  This safe side is in the middle of two other exits all separated by chain link fences and concrete, the middle where we are being the lowest point.  There are people walking out in a single file line cool and calm like we didn't just all get eaten.  Were we the only ones that experienced such madness in there? That's what I was thinking in the dream.  Then my knight in shining armor appeared, but he was on one of the other sides. 
  Somehow he made to my side, and now the girls magically disappeared too.  We did something, I can't remember, and all of a sudden dark liquid started coming out the ground.  There just happened to be two people there with special paper to test it.  Sure enough it was oil.  They tried to shade us though and told us we could just go home. Uh uh, we called someone important, I wouldn't know who to talk to about discovering oil anyway, and set up a meeting.  Fast forward a few days, my man was in a tailored suit looking very handsome, but I don't remember what I was wearing.  Anyway, we go into a meeting to sign some papers.   I don't know how we figured we had rights to that oil seeing as how that wasn't our property.  Doesn't matter though because we came out of that meeting BALLING!
