{acid rain}

i was standing in the driveway talking to my peeps when the cutest little girl ran up to play with tundra. i was slightly curious as to where this small child came from so i went over to talk to the kid. she was maybe five. dark hair, light skin, and missing teeth. i asked what she was doing and she said she just wanted to see the dog. i left it at that and went back to whatever we had been talking about before. she came over, grabbed my hand and just stood there. she acted like she knew exactly who i was and even joined in the conversation. someone asked where her parents where but she didnt seem too interested in that topic. we kept talking and then i asked again where her parents were. she was totally calm and said "my mom is in the tree". i wondered what that meant and even looked at the trees and didnt see any mom in a tree. i asked what tree and she pointed. i looked over at a tree i had just looked at and there was this poor kids mom hanging there. i FREAKED. snapped a picture with my phone (oh technology) and ran to the church to get my dad.

on the way there it started to lightly rain. i got there and tried to tell him what had happened and show him the picture but every time i pulled the picture up on my phone i got more and more freaked out was incoherently rambeling on and on. he told me to calm down and that he would take care of it. i can always count on him to take care of my problems, he's a good daddy. i calmed myself and walked to my grandmas house where a turkey was cooking. i got it out of the oven and cut it up but then remembered i needed something other than turkey to feed to everyone so i invited grandma to come with me to the store to grab some stuffing, potatos, salad, and drinks. she didnt want to come so i went ahead by myself.

it was raining a little harder by the time i got to the store. i was already cold and didnt want to get wet so i made a dash for it and got in mostly dry. i swear everyone from my home ward was at the store at that particular time. i was trying to dodge people i knew so i could get in and out and on my way. i was still pretty shaken up about what had happened earlier but tried not to think about it, trying to get it out of my mind. out of nowhere there was quite a comotion a few isles down so i went to see what happened. some people came into the store all wet from the rain and started acting crazy crazy. they were attacking people and trying to get more to join in with them. more and more people came in out of the rain acting all weird and crazy. i turned around and my grandma was standing there. she decided that she would come so she met me there. she had a very panicked look on her face and said that we needed to get out of the store. so we, along with many other people, made a dash for it.

we got out into the parking garage and waiting around thinking of what to do next. while we were waiting i tried to tell my grandma about what had happened that morning with the little girl. i got out my phone once again to show her the picture but everytime i looked at it i got so freaked out i couldnt even think straight. that was when the wack job people from inside the store started coming out and looking for us. they were trying to kill themselves and others. i was so scared i couldnt even move. my grandma leaned down and told me to hold on to her and it would be ok. we took off (my grandma can run!) and before i knew it we were in the car on the way home. there were people in the streets begging for rides, trying to get in from the rain. we didnt stop for anyone, just kept driving. a voice came over the radio saying something about acid rain making peopel crazy, crazy enough to have a need to kill themselves and everyone else. could acid rain really do that? was it the acid rain that made the little girls mom hang herself? there were so many questions and not enough answers.

and then i woke up.

acid rain? seriously? what kind of whack job dream is that?
