I think that some of my dreams are so vivid that I will capture them here. I will not offer any interpretation, since I think that is a little weird.

Night before last, I was in a place that I couldn’t quite picture or at least identify as any place in the real world. I noticed someone holding a tortoise (or maybe a sea turtle) in their arms and they were petting it. I watched how the turtle was extending its neck at the beginning of each stroke. I was now intrigued and wanted in on some of the action. I watched the care taker place the turtle back in the water and this seemed like my chance.

After a few minutes of watching it swim around, I asked if I could also hold it. He said ok, and told me how to pick it up. One hand on the side of its shell and the other under its belly. When I picked it up I realized that it was lighter than I expected.

The turtle started to push his head out from with in the shell and I was determined to pet it. I started to stroke its flippers (?) and it perked up. I paused for a second and the turtle put its flipper on my hand in an effort to get me to continue. I started to pet the head of the turtle and things started to change. This time when I stopped, it put a paw on it that was black and brown. When I looked back towards it head if was my dog (Rottweiler) stuck in a tortoise shell. Like I said, no interpretation, just craziness of my mind.
