Just to give you a laugh

The other day, I was working late, I got home about midnight. I went to bed shortly after that. I woke up, had no clue what time it was, and there was a HUGH tarantula walking under the top bunk (thus, just above my head). I screamed, threw my blanket at it and jumped out of bed. My feet got caught up in the blanket, and I fell flat on my knees. Now I was freaking out because I was caught in the blanket and the tarantula was caught in the blanket too. I managed to free myself and ran out of the bedroom. Now I was panicking, heart racing, couldn't catch my breath, wondering what I was going to do. I still had no clue what time it was because all the clocks were in my room. I knew it was after 12 but before 5:30 because it was still dark outside. So I called the nurses station at the hospital. I explained what had happened and she said she would send the only man who was working in the hospital at this hour. I told her, there was a problem. I was not wearing any pants and was not going to go back in my room to get any. So 2 nurses showed up at my door with a broom (I still have no clue what time it is). They searched my room, took the sheets off the bed, flipped the mattress, looked with a flashlight behind the dresser, under the bed, under the treadmill, everywhere. NOTHING!! One of them looked at me and said "I think you were dreaming!" I was not convinced because this was the most real image of a tarantula and I was awake when I saw it. So now I know it is 1:15 am, the nurses leave, I close the bedroom door and lay down on the couch in the living room. Sometime later, I woke up and again saw the same thing above my head. This time I realized that it was not real. Regardless, I hardly got any sleep, but I now know that I was dreaming. Unfortunately, I have 2 bruised knees and have still not slept in my own bed.
