Weird Dream

Weirdest experience ever today. As a preface, no I am not on drugs. So anyways, I took a nap this afternoon in between classes. As I was in that falling asleep phase I came into this really strange state of consciousness. I mean really strange. I was totally aware of the situation, which kind of made it even weirder. My eyes were closed, yet it was if I was seeing through them, and what I saw was as if I were lying on a striped blue comforter. Except I wasn't, I knew I was on my green sheets, but I could see this comforter as clear as anything I've ever seen before in my life. I could interact with it too, like I sleepily shifted the position of my arm an it behaved like any comforter would, I dunno if this makes any sense, but it just felt like I was somewhere I wasn't. But it felt so real, as in not a dream, and I was most definitely still awake, I even half opened an eye to check that I was still in my own bed (for the record, I was). Being as tired as I was, I went along with it, and fell asleep. Then I had a dream, I dream a huge fucking wasp was crawling on the blue striped comforter next to me. My first thought was this is just a dream, don't worry. Actually no, my first reaction was somthin like, "holy shit that thing is big," and then I reminded myself to not freak out since its a dream. Here I was dead sure it was a dream, I don't know why, but I just knew it was. But then I thought, this comforter thing was so real before though, I ought to wake up just in case. An I repeated that thought to myself, "alrite, wake up" and I did. I've done this kind of thing before, actually it usually happens when I realize I'm in a dream while it is happening. I think there's only one situation I can remember when I was dreaming and thought like, fuck it, rather keep this goin than wake up right now. The difference here was I wanted to wake up cause I thought maybe the dream was real. So I groggily wake up and look where the wasp should be. No wasp actually. But there was a baby spider. Tiny little white spider. I blew him off my sheets and went to back sleep, pissed that I had woken myself over this damn spider. It was fucking weird though. The whole alternate sleep space thing, then dreaming about it, then waking up and not forgetting any of it. It's all still very clear in my head. I wanna know what triggered this. It was all just too bizarre. wonder if it will happen again. was just the strangest experience I've had in some time, if not ever.
