Science Being Buried Alive Sucks

FAX · 11-19-2011, 03:41 PM

I had two recurring nightmares as a child. One involved being chased down endless, dark caverns by a guy wearing a suit of armor complete with helm and wielding a mace. In the other one, I was buried alive in a coffin.

My mother told me that it wasn't a good idea to read Edgar Allen Poe at my age, but I didn't listen.

Anyhow, last night I had that buried alive dream again. I'm pretty sure that it's because of my upcoming encounter with the oral surgeon, but damn I hate that dream. In the vision, I am confined in complete darkness and suffocating. I try to yell and holler and call for some helpful moles to dig me out, but the moles do not hear me. That's when I begin clawing at the coffin lid unsuccessfully. About the time that full panic ensues, I awaken and it takes me a moment or two to realize that I am okay.

They say that, if you don't eat before retiring, it will reduce your tendency to dream about being buried alive. So, today I'm fasting all day and thinking really, really positive thoughts about not being buried alive.
