lynxreign: (Eating Tiger)

Dream

Some time ago, Copper (my cat) had a medical problem that required surgery. She's fine now, but the vet told me she can no longer eat people food and can only have special dietary cat food. She's usually fairly good about it (Copper, not the vet), but the other day I made the mistake of having a Quiznos hot turkey sub in the house. Copper went nuts yowling for turkey, batting at my hands, not leaving me alone until I put the plate in the dishwasher.
I think this awakened a desire for turkey in her so strong she's projecting her desires into my dreams.
I had a dream the other night where we had leftover turkey in the house. I was discussing with [livejournal.com profile] inochinoakari what the best way to store the leftovers would be. We had a Spam-like can that the turkey (fresh, not canned) had somehow come out of, another can that had a tupperware sleeve and some tupperware. So far, just a normal dream. Here's where Copper invaded my brain.
As I'm standing there holding the can, I notice that there's fat, grease and turkey bits clinging to the inside of the can, including a big, yellowy gob of it in the bottom corner. So I reach in to the can with my index finger, scoop up as much of it as I can and eat it, making yummy noises and sucking on my finger. I woke up and was immediately disgusted, I blame the cat.

Well, THAT's put me off my feed for the day. Welcome back, nausea!

When I went to the cafeteria just now, they had a hot, open face, turkey sandwich, so that's what I had.

Did you ask for a cup full of gravy to wash it down as well?

No, but they essentially gave me one. I got it with mashed potatoes and corn and the "to go" container had a lage of gravy in it.

I'm with you. And after the most amazingly disgusting day at work ever, it was so not what I needed to see.

I'm very sorry. I did put the "mood" as "disgusted", I thought that'd be a warning.
How was your day disgusting?

I really don't want to tell you here, I think poor head58 has been traumatized enough for one day.

Turkey is like crack for cats. They can't get enough.

You know, I almost forgot about that dream when you told me about it. Thanks for making me remember it now....

Yeach!!!

You are very welcome.
At least there are no truck spiders in it.

That actually had my making "yech!!" faces at my computer with my tongue sticking out. People must think I'm crazy.
