Dream in which we all look up and see an enormous praying mantis on the ceiling. It has an enormous fan of feathery legs spreading out in all directions. As we watch, it becomes self-conscious and starts to shy away into a corner, drawing its legs together.
Then we're sitting at the dinner table. I take a break from conversation to look down at my plate. Good god, I'm eat large chunks of praying mantis covered with brown grasshopper-spit sauce.
Credit where due: this dream was almost certainly inspired by an amusing story from my bro wherein a brood of praying mantises hatched in his dorm room.
