It means good luck. The Orientals way back when used to keep them in special gilded aquarians. True. Not kidding.\nSo are spiders. Not the biting or poisonous kinds, of course. Daddy long legs and mantis I used to keep. (I didn't kill them in other words.)

I am not sure of the origin of the word, but dressing implies finishing something.\nA dressed animal is one that has been at least partially prepared after slaughter. A hunter will field dress a deer or other larger animal by gutting it to help the carcass cool. \nI think American and Canandian governments have differing definitions for poultry, but generally it means plucked, gutted and drained of blood.\nAt home the chicken can be "dressed" with stuffing before cooking

It could mean that you are wanting to get away or travel (the flying away) or as pigioens are often used as messenger birds you could be wanting to let the world know something, some important message, or as they are also known for their pigieon droppings it could mean you are awaiting bad news?? Who knows just my 2 pennies.

The chupacabra is a Latin American legend. It's name means "goat sucker," because it's supposed to be a creature that attacks goats and other farm animals in the middle of the night and sucks their blood. From the descriptions I've heard, it sounds something like a cross between a bat, a reptile and a monkey, but I'm sure that varies.
