storms a-brewin'
Two nights ago I dreamed that I was driving along the highway and my brakes stopped working. I exited and begin driving along side roads, hoping the car's momentum would slow and I would eventually stop. However, the car continued to move at a good clip until I woke up.
Last night, I dreamed that I was cutting through someone's house (or a B&B?) to get to the beach. As I walked out, two girls leaned out of an upstairs window and pointed off into the horizon. There I saw a huge storm front approaching with several tornadoes. Rather than going back into the house and heading for the basement, I began to run back to my house.
I have tornado dreams periodically. For me, they usually symbolize a time of change or particular stress. I have a feeling I know what these dreams are about, but until I'm sure I will let you ponder them and share your own.

My stress dreams usually involve being lost in my high school, having learned that I didn't graduate after all so I have to go back to complete something as a formality. and I'm always expected to remember my locker combination, fifteen years later. Yeah, right. Lots of dream stress.
last summer, though, I had a very disturbing stress/anxiety dream in which my aunt's dog was on fire and I was unable to help it. That one had me waking up crying.
Woo hoo, feeling impotent in your sleep!
Dog on fire! Dog on fire! Sorry to joke, because that sounds like a god-awful dream, but Dog on Fire!
I have that high school one, too. Almost always I have to take calculus. More recently, these dreams start off with me trying to get ready and missing the bus.
Freakish li-berrian minds.
Well, once I was done being horrified, I started thinking "What would happen if I lit my cat on fire? Would he roll to put it out, or streak around my house, like a little flaming tornado?"
Freakish, indeed. ;)
