When I was in the 5th grade (so around 10 years old) I had a dream that my baby-sitter (an old woman at the time) was at my house. There was a huge thunderstorm going on outside and for some reason she took our new puppy and threw it off the roof of the house and killed it. I woke up scared to death and went to go check on the puppy (which thankfully was perfectly fine.) |
