I woke up around 4:30AM all freaked out/not being able to breathe and confused and seeing Tyson Stevens (in my head...) and he kept saying,"I'm sorry" over and over again. Or "Thank you" I'm pretty sure it was the first one. Like ***?

One of the last times I was sick (when I went to school) I was awake then I closed my eyes and kind of started having a dream where I was at school, I wrote 666 on a piece of paper (or my sleeve, can't remember lol) then everything went black with some dark red...I think I was kind of awake still...I couldn't breathe or move and I got all freaked out since I was trying to open my eyes/wake up. It sucked.
