My Cold Pizza Dreams

Night 64

Last night I had a dream that I was out in my backyard and it was snowing. And then I got bit by a rattlesnake. I stumbled inside because the poison was making me delirious. I  picked up my phone in my kitchen and dialed 911. When they asked me what was wrong I looked down at where the snake bit me on my wrist and my veins were changing shape and became more blue in color. I told the operator that my veins were blue pentagons. Because they were. I had blue pentagons on my wrist. And then she said, “oh you must have been bit by a rattlesnake.” And then I woke up.
