Because now I can report on my awful dream from last night!

I dreamed that I was on a plane rather like that one that landed in the Hudson. You know, that one? Yeah, so, I was on a plane that splashed down on some water and I was negotiating getting out and no one was rushed or anything, they just hopped out over to the wing. I remember going towards the back instead of the front because the door was gaping open. I wondered who thought that that was a good idea, given how that pretty much just meant more water would get in. Sure enough, when I got to the back door, I watched the floor of the plane sinking into the water some more and then started panicking a lot even though, hello McFly, the door was open, and I could have just gotten out. (It was warm in the dream, too. No freezing in the Hudson for me!)

In the midst of getting out, I discovered that the rough landing had resulted in me breaking off my upper right canine. I looked at the took in the dream and cried because it was whole at the bottom but the root was all splintered and they'd never get that back in. I also, somehow, despite having the root and the whole tooth, had a triangular nub left in my jaw that I kept tonguing.

Needless to say, I woke up still licking my tooth and struggling, in the first few minutes of consciousness to reassure myself that my tooth was, in fact, still there. Ah, me.

I hate dreams where body parts fall off. No really. I do. I've had them before and they are always lingeringly disturbing.

Oh, the best part is that because that tooth protrudes a little, when I tongue it, until I press my tongue against it, I can only feel just a part of the ridge sticking back. So it did feel almost like there was no tooth there at all. I could barely make myself touch the thing to be sure.

Losing body parts in your sleep = powerfully not cool.
