The Mirror
How's this for a creepy dream (and this may have even been a dream within a dream but I don't remember)--
You walk into your bedroom. Inside your room, there is some sort of killer mirror that has attached itself to one of your walls or bookshelves, but you just think it's another mirror (or else you don't notice it). This mirror has attached two smaller mirrors elsewhere in the room as "eyes," so that when your reflection shows in the smaller mirrors, a trap is triggered, wherein the door to the room locks so you can't get out, the walls begin to close in, and a face appears in the mirror that is not your own. The last part has nothing to really do with killing you, but the face is grotesque. You try to open the door, but it's locked. The walls are moving in toward you to crush you. What do you do?
You smash the mirrors. WITH YOUR FIST. LIKE I DID.
As silly as it sounds, this dream left an impression on me. Maybe because I'm pretty sure I've dreamed it twice now. I figure nobody really cares, but once I figure out the symbolism, I'll let everyone know. Maybe.
Oh yeah, and apparently, the mirror's name was Udo (pronounced oo-doh).
The end.

That's a really scary dream sweetie. Wouldn't it be even more scary if you came home from work and "Udo" was hanging from the wall in our room because I had found it at some flea market and thought it was pretty. Maybe I shouldn't look for a mirror for our room anymore.
