I dream I look down at my feet and realize they are badly callused, with large white patches of dead skin. When I look at them more closely, I realize the patches are covering the entire soles of my feet. The patches are layered, and look like whorls of hoarfrost. Cautiously, I pick at part of the dead skin. This is when I realize that it isn't dead skin, but some sort of fungus which is growing thickly across my feet.

Disturbed, I slowly and painfully pull each white foot mushroom off, roll it in tempura batter, and cook it in a wok. Then I wake up.

That is the foulest thing *ever* O_O

Okay, maybe not, but *EWW*!

At least I didn't eat it.

You would've if you hadn't woken up.

It's pretty gross when even callouses start peeling off your feet, though.

I might not have eaten them. I may have fed them to someone else.

It means that f00's foot problems have crept into my sleep. Not that he has fungus on his feet, but he did have some truly terrible calluses.

Wow, that sounds just like my feet back
when I used to play soccer in swampy
Houston, TX. I even pulled the sheets
of dead skin off, and one of my cousins
helped me. But I never ate it.

gross dreams

I have never dreamed about foot skin issues like this (ew btw), but I constantly dream about my teeth falling out, and the sequence sounds similar to your disgusting feet dreams. Plus, I "know" you from the bellydance community (just in case you were wondering who the crap i was) and I'm betting you just have belly dance feet in real life ;)
I read once that the damned tooth falling out dream is just a sign that you're concerned about money or someone dying. Maybe the same is true for foot skin?

I really think I dreamed of the feet because my hubby has been having bad problems with foot calluses and cracking heels. My feet are in pretty good shape. I have plenty of calluses from kung fu and dance, but they're not bad.

I've never had the tooth-falling-out dreams, although I know plenty of people who do. It seems to be a common motif.
