A dream

Last night I dreamed that I had caught an adder. I had its very long body in a paper sack with just the head out and I was holding it just behind its head. It could almost reach around to bite me, but not quite. I had been holding it for an hour or more but I couldn't put it down because I was afraid it would bite me as soon as I turned it loose. Eventually someone I didn't know brought a wooden box with a lid and said to throw it into the box and she'd close the lid, so I did, but it twisted around and grazed me on the hand with its fangs as it fell. I wasn't sure if I was poisoned or not, but then my arm started to tingle and I was trying to get someone to tie a tourniquet around my forearm and I guess someone did because one appeared. I was looking through the phone book for a vet or the zoo because I thought they might have anti-venom when I woke up. Upon waking, I found that the bracelet I had worn to bed had worked its way up my arm and was pressing into my skin right where I had dreamed the tourniquet was and my hand was a mildly tingly because it was cutting off my circulation just a little. Nice how I worked that right into the dream.
