I dreamt that I was with a man, someone who liked me and  I him, maybe even in love. We were walking down a somewhat dark street when something happened. I'm not sure if it was a bolt from the sky or a chemical in the air, but we both knew what it meant, he would morph into something bigger than he was. Unfortunately that meant that if there was something else living in the vicinity that was not of the same genus and species, he would become part of that too. In front of us was a dark almost steely looking grasshopper. We looked at each other with somewhat despair knowing what was about to happen. In an instant he turned into a ten foot tall grasshopper, but only in shape. I could still feel warmth for him and who he was.

I must have fainted or lost my ability to stand for a moment, as he picked me up in his arms? legs? and carried me back to a location that seemed like a home base.  I knew the other inhabitants would freak out from the sight of him, so I was ready with my lightening speed elevator speech to save him from getting clobbered. The little old lady of the place screamed and then off I went on the quickest PR I could muster.   Everyone seemed to understand and he was allowed to come in and act as normal. It was movie night after all and we were all supposed to have a cozy night in. I popped a large bucket of popcorn for everyone and hands started going for it, my arms barely able to keep it steady. I lifted the bucket and said "hold on!" Let me get everyone their own bowl. I wasn't going to be the popcorn referee through the movie.

I finally sat down on the sofa with the new him. I still loved him and felt even closer after this experience.
