I Faint At The Sight Of Blood

Last night was one of the scariest dreams that I've had and the amazing thing is that it's only a single scene. I faint at the sight of blood--I am saying this almost seriously, okay? Respect me. I have fainted a total of two times when I was in high school (one was a severe burn on a hand from a red-hot mixing rod in the science lab & the other a deep slit from a cutter knife on my right forefinger and it wouldn't stop bleeding). Both incidents involved blood and/or minor injuries. You know when scientists say that women have more pain receptors that men so something that feels like a mosquito bite to a man is a pinch to a woman? Well---for me it feels more like an knock-out upper-cut. I do have a very low pain threshold and yes, most of the time, pain knocks me out...or makes me cry. Mind you, I am not a girly-girl and I do not take after prom queens. I am, in fact, one of the boys. And this particular talent of fainting at minor injuries is...embarrassing (an understatement). Anyways, as with my dream:

My mother and I were watching the telly and on was a basketball game. I have no idea why in the hell we would be watching a game like this in the tv (since we'd rather be watching an action movie in RL). One team, as I remember, was named "Magic Cards"....creative (At times like these, my lack of creative juices at the moment shames me even from my self).

I don't know much about the game but I'm pretty sure I'll be talking about the two centers. Well, everything started when they fell over after a very bad choreographed rebound from both. The Center 1 (quite a thin one) fell under the, rather, healthier one (call him center 2). For some reason, C1 felt the need to be hostile and kicked C2 in the back of the neck while trying to get out from under the pile up. C2 never got the chance to get up, once kicked, he froze for a few seconds and then started jerking uncontrollably. I looked at the floor under his head and I saw blood spatter. Then he stopped jerking.

I don't remember much after that aside from gasping at the sight of blood.


PS: In the dream, I didn't faint at the sight of blood but, hey, it's a fun story. :)
