Paralysis

I ended up falling asleep after writing my last entry, around 10AM. I woke up around 12:30PM. heartsMark, no-Name and I were in some kind of paint chat together. I had coloured the canvas an army/moss green and heartsMark was writing something over it, but in a very similar colour so I could not read what it said. I was like.. ridiculously upset about that for some reason and erased the area where he was writing. I think no-Name was typing below the paint chat but I could not read anything he said. I woke up in the middle of some really crazy sleep paralysis which was intensifying a headache I had. My entire body felt like a throbbing brain, but in the midst of that I was having fleeting feelings of arousal. The throbbing pain subsided and the paralysis became very sexually-charged. My thoughts, regardless of what they were, became very arousing and I eventually felt a hand trailing down my stomach (even though I was sleeping on it). So, you can guess where the hand went. I had it in my head that it was my own and that I was reading a comic at the same time, but it startled me anyways and the hallucinations lessened. I realized I had both of my arms tucked under my chest and started thinking about how interesting sleep paralysis can be until I dozed off again. For some reason, trying to WILD never crossed my mind. So in my next dream, I was in some store that resembled Ikea but it had a lot of hardware store-type stuff, too. I had a black shopping cart and I was trying to return some metal sheet/tool thing, but I had a really hard time finding the aisle and driving my cart. There were furniture sets everywhere that were getting in the way. I kind of remember something about bats. There was also an old Asian woman with a bright pink top on. She seemed to be looking for the same aisle as me so I started following her because she could navigate the store better.

If this reminds you of something a friend or a relative told you once and never mentioned again, send them this page. Reading that a stranger described the same thing is usually the part that helps.
