Blog Entry #6: A Dream Come True

It always seems like I have weird dreams. The Easter bunny trying to kill me, bears invading my town, or traveling back in time. They’re all very strange. I remember almost all of my dreams, not every single detail, but most of it.

One of my most terrifying nightmares was about the Easter bunny. The Easter bunny, and scary are rarely used in the same sentence. In my dreams though, it makes complete and total sense. I was in my house, sitting on the couch watching TV. There was a knock on the door, and I walked over to it. I edged the door open slowly. I was home alone, and I was a tad bit nervous about who was behind the door. To my surprise it was the Easter bunny. I was a little hesitant to let him in. What the heck, he was the Easter bunny. He hopped in my house. Before I could close the door, he pulled a chainsaw out from behind his back. He chased me around my house. We ran back to the front door. I had to fight him out the door. I opened up, and he fell outside. I pushed the door shut, and locked it.

A dream I have a lot, is about bears attacking my hometown. I was sitting in my kitchen, and I look out the window. A terrible feeling of fright runs through my body. I see to large grizzly bears, and three cubs standing in my neighbor’s backyard. I’m scared because they could eat my two dogs, Zoey and Gus. I cautiously walk over to the back door to let them in, afraid that the bears will charge. I let Zoey and Gus in without any movements from the bears. The next thing I know I’m walking up to the town square. The bears are grazing lazily in the grass. They were nice, and gentle with all the people around. It was as if they were apart of our town.

Looking all around me and my surroundings are black and white. There were older cars driving down the street heading towards the diner. People are walking on the sidewalks heading to the town pool. Which I think is weird considering McLean doesn’t have a town pool. I look down and see that my clothes are old fashioned. I then realize that I went back in time to the 1950s. Everything looked simple and peaceful. I walked uptown to the town square. People were everywhere. They were sitting under the trees, on the park benches, and hanging out at the hardware store. The grocery store was open, and people were walking in and out. I then find myself sitting in the country looking at the beautiful sunset, wishing I could sit there forever.
