She's Gone
I went to bed last night feeling heavy hearted about the whole Terri Schiavo case. I don't know why I began to feel that way considering that I haven't shown an ounce of emotion about the case. I felt bad that her last days were filled with drama & confusion courtesy of her family and a bunch of bonehead politicians. I actually breathed a sigh of relief when she passed because now perhaps the woman can have peace. All the fighting & stuff over her was ridiculous.
I dreamed about Terri last night (rather this morning). It was the oddest dream that I've ever had (aside from the talking dogs dream).
I dreamt that my phone at approximately 6am this morning. It was Terri Schiavo. She said, "Hey T. It's me Terri...Terri Schiavo. Just thought I'd call to check up on you." I was speechless on the other end of the line. I don't know her, but she knew me. That bugged me out.
Then I thought it was a hoax, so I said, "Yea right Terri died the other day."
She responded, "I'm Terri. I'm alive & I have a message for you." I yawned and said, "Go ahead." She said, "You are a good listener take heed to my words. 'If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature. Old things are passed away & all things become new.' You got that?"
I realized that she quoted 2 Corinthians 5. I responded with, "I guess." She said, "Great. Though I am dead, yet will I live." She quoted John 11:25. I said, "What are you 13th Apostle? What's with the New Testament proverbs?"
Terri responded with, "I'm Alive! I'm free. Turn on the news." Then she hung up. I layed there in bed believing that I'd just been bamboozled. I thought that I'd been the victim of some silly April Fool's joke. I opened my phone's web browser to CNN news. The headline read, "BREAKING NEWS: Terri Schiavo Is Alive!"
I jumped up and turned on to CNN. There was Terri Schiavo on the screen smiling. I said, "What the??" The CNN news anchor asked Terri if she had any words for the millions of people now awakening and seeing her on their televisions.
She let out evil laughter and said, "April Fools...I'M BACK BITCHES!"
I screamed, "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"
Then I woke up. I wouldn't even begin to know how to piece that one together. This dream is toying with my mental functions. I aint been back to sleep since 7am. It's bad enough that I didn't go to sleep until 5am (special thanks to an addicting game called Mah Jong!). I feel the lag setting in right about now...
