Earlier this week, I was searching for a blog online and instead found a blog named "Mefloquine Dreams." I thought, "That is a very clever and rather odd blog name, but to each his own." Mefloquine, the malaria prophylaxis that I am taking, has the tendency to give the user some very strange dreams. I have taken the medication while in Uganda in the past and haven't really experienced anything "earth shattering." Well, the past few nights, I wake up having the most bizarre and graphic dreams I have ever had! I wish I could share with you all what they were about, but the content is much too, let me say, 'not for all ears to hear.' Now I know why that blog was named Mefloquine Dreams and now I need to start keeping a journal beside my bed so that I can write down the oddities of my REM sleep. You never know - maybe I have the next "Alice in Wonderland" hiding in my cranium somewhere - minus the drugs.
No sighting of the 9 foot + python yet - maybe it will end up in my dreams - goodie!

that 'psychotic response' that mefloquine gives some people is why it's on the prohibited list for pilots to take. i took it once for a malaria cure, and suffered no 'interesting' results. fun stuff.
This is hilarious! I wish I could hear details of these dreams, Hannah. I'm sure I can handle it. :) Glad to know you have an office space now. Must seem more like a real job, huh?
