I had a two part dream last night
Love those
The kind that wake you up in the middle but allow you to slide back in
Lucidly
Part 1
There was a very bad earthquake and I was in a boat house
Oddly there was a trampoline in the boat house
And there were many windows so that I could see outside
So when the quake started I was not concerned for myself
But watched others bounce off of the hard rock jetty outside
I was on a trampoline so I just bounced comfortably
If you have ever been in a bad earthquake you know there is nothing you can do
Except plan very quickly in your head
Your priorities for when it stops
So I planned to see to the injuries outside
And call my son before all the cell lines were too busy
Make sure he is ok...which of course he will be
And let him know I am ok....which of course I will be
So I started first aid on a blonde curly headed kid about 14
Had a particularly bad injury
A small dingy had crashed onto his leg
As the boats outside were also airborne
He had a visibly broken femur through the skin
And massive bleeding of course
He was going to die
I tied off his upper leg best I could but knew he would bleed out
BEFORE I could get a fire big enough and hot enough to cauterize
So I just held him
Stroked his blonde curly hair
And told him he would be fine
Just relax
Just open your eyes and look at me
He would have freaked if he saw his leg
Freaking was not going to make his death very much fun
For either of us
But he did what I told him to do
And just looked at me...and relaxed.....and happily died
Part 2
I looked for my trenchcoat because I needed to go get supplies
We are out in the middle of nowhere & there are more people
Than I remember being there in Part 1
So I find my trench but there are noooooooo sleeves
Where did the sleeves go?
Did I use them as a tourniquet for the blonde?
No I did not...I used my belt
So I put on this trench with no sleeves...at least it has pockets
And go out for supplies
As I walk tiny paths cut through the forest
I keep asking myself
WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO MY SLEEVES????????
Looked to the left....vines I can use in an emergency
WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO MY SLEEVES????
Looked to right...river...will have to check for fish on the way back
WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO MY SLEEVES?????
Got to the main road and all was good
An old Native American woman was driving an awesome beat up
'69 Chevy truck and the first thing she said was
"WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO YOUR SLEEVES GIRL?"
