Dream of bleeding eyes.?

Posted by: | Comments (0)

First off I’m on my fiance’s account. Anyway..

So a couple nights ago I had a dream that my dog passed away. I wrapped her in a blanket and placed her body on the corner of the bed in the study until I would be able to bury her later on.

I woke up in real life at this point, told my fiance about the dream and she comforted me. I managed to get back to sleep and later had a continuation of that same dream.

In the ‘new’ dream my dad and step mom were over. My step mom was doing stuff in the kitchen with my fiance and my dad was in the study (the same one my dog’s body is wrapped up in). I was talking with him about how I couldn’t decide between whether I should bury my dog or have her taxidermy. I asked my dad what he thought and he said something to the effect of “Taxidermy is crap. It never comes out the way you want it. It wouldn’t even look like her, they just use a generic cast instead of the original skeletal structure.” I told him “They could use her skull, but I don’t mind about the body. They could even put her paw up like she’s shaking a hand.” At this point my dad leaned back in the chair and had a tired look on his face. Suddenly his eyes started to bleed and pour down his cheeks. I started freaking out saying “Oh my god what’s wrong with your eyes!? Your eyes! Your EYES!” and I tried to run out of the room. It was almost like I was entranced by the sight and I couldn’t get away. It’s like my body would flex it’s muscles, but wouldn’t move, yet no force was actually holding me. I started screaming in-dream and in-reality. My fiance woke up and she covered my mouth and it took her a few good seconds to wake me up. It took a few minutes of me whimpering like a little school girl before I could comprehend what I just saw and tell her what happened.

All I can say is “Wtf?”

Suffice it to say I’ve never felt this kind of fear and dread in my entire life. Something felt very wrong.

What might this dream represent?

Taxidermist Questions?

Posted by: | Comments (1)

Can you live on a taxidermist’s salary?
What does a decent taxidermist make on adverage per year?
How much does it cost to start up your own shop?
Would you be better off working with someone who has been in it for awhile beforehand?
If you are working for and with someone what would the expected pay be?

I have been told to go into taxidermy and I wanted to know more before making that choice. I’ve taken Carpentry for the past 2 years, this will be my third year. Will this help in the field?

Like taxidermy.

I do not care if it is morally wrong.

I just want to know if you actually could.

my daughter is going to this museum on a field trip with her school but she has a fear of taxidermy. (for those of you who don’t know what that is, its like the stuffed dead animal heads you see on walls at restaurants) so if any of you have been to the moma please help us out and tell us if there’s any taxidermy in the museum. also it would be a huge help if you knew where/what parts my daughter should avoid
thanks!
