So, I'm trying to sleep, but I can't. I'm laying here in the dark listening to a podcast I already listened to earlier today trying to bore myself to sleep, I saw something weird. My dog, Ripley, was laying on my chest licking my chin. She does this almost every time I lay down for bed, and after a while she gets bored and sleeps either between Selina and I, if it's cold, or near the foot of the bed. The first night we had her, I came home from work and started to get ready for bed. Selina borrowed a cage from a a friend of ours to give Ripley a place to sleep, but the poor dog was crying and going on, and I couldn't let her stay crying in the cage while we slept, so I brought her out and let her fall asleep on my chest. That's what I was thinking about when Ripley, as she tends to do sometimes while she's giving me good night kisses, started getting closer to my lips than I was comfortable with. In order to avoid a french kiss from I dog, I turned my head to the right. Directly in my line of sight, against a wall with no light source, I was a sort of spark or tiny flash of white light. This isn't the first time I've seen this. It's happened maybe once before in this apartment, but it's something I've seen a number of times throughout my life, if different places, always in my direct line of sight (not out of the corner of my eye) and always in places with no light source or small reflective surfaces that could explain it. The first time I remember seeing it, I was aroumd 11 or 12, and it happened in my closet. Tim and I happened to be sharing a room at that time, and I don't remember if he saw it or not. Does anyone know what that is? Is my brain matrixing something, or are my eyes playing tricks on me?
