Creepy Stuff

I went out to a bar last night and got semi-loaded with dinner.I consumed at least two large glasses of Fransikanner Weissbier and 3 White Russians at home. My Fiancee is out of town for the week and I had an absolutely lousy day. So I hung out at home and re-watched the movie PontyPool. This movie is very creepy. It's about a virus that is transmitted through language. I love movies like this. I've been a zombie movie fan since I was a kid. My fiancee is not a fan, so I watch them when she's not around. Which works out great except for the terror that I feel when I'm about to go to sleep. It's hard enough sleeping without my fiancee next to me. I get weirded out. It's a little ridiculous if I think about it, but I imagine the undead creeping their way into my house, silently. I sleep with the light on. I'm a little comforted that my dog sleeps in my bed with me. she can probably hear them better than I can. At one point of every evening I deal with this I think "This is ridiculous! Zombies don't exist, and if they did, sleeping with the light on isn't going to matter. If I die in some George A Romero type situation, so be it! Good night!" Well for some reason, last night I came to this same conclusion and went to sleep. But at 1:45AM in the morning I woke up, looked at the wall next to my bed and saw it was crawling with flies and bugs. It was a swarm. I looked and jumped out of my bed like I was I fire. I went into the bathroom to get my head together. I was exhausted and trying to wake up and get my bearing. I walked back into the bedroom and the swarm was gone. I completely imagined/dreamed?/Half-dreamed? the situation. Needless to say I was "up" for a while after that and went downstairs to watch Family Guy and ate a banana. I was able to go back to sleep last night without too much trouble. But I felt like I had a hallucination, and I wanted to share. Sleep tight folks! (creep, creep, creep)
