I was telling Corrie the other day about a weird reoccuring subject I have in my dreams. Tornadoes. Not really a reoccuring dream...all the dreams are different, but always surrounded by tornadoes. Not the big, scary black ones you see on TWC, but the skinny, white ones...kinda like water spouts I guess...and always lots of them.
The dream I had last night I remember very clearly. We were in a shack of some kind...about the size of a trailer, but not at all sturdy...more of an enclosure built with some 2 by 4s and plywood. There were big windows on three sides of the building, and I was in there all night with 3 other people...some guy named Geoff, who I've never met in real life, some girl that sorta reminded me of Corrie but wasn't her, and some other dude that was just there. As night fell we looked out and saw the first tornado slide across the grass and water (we were on the edge of a lake in Ohio of all places.). I remember asking Geoff to call to see if we were expecting bad weather, and indeed we were under a tornado warning. I kept wanting to leave to go to a safer place, but Geoff was unconcerned and kept changing the subject, and the girl kept closing the drapes over all the windows (which really upset me) so that we couldn't see the tornados.
There are some common threads through all my tornado dreams...I'm never scared, but always anxious and aggrivated. And there are usually so many of them...dozens and dozens, though last night I only remember two. And in my other dreams I'm usually in a car, never driving, and we're always trying to avoid the tornados, though not actually running from them...usually they're just in the way of whatever we're trying to do. I remember one dream we were on a steep and winding mountain road that sort of reminded me of Wintergreen, and another dream we were at a camping ground in the Tidewater area...lots of sand and pine trees.
I'd love to know what all this means. I can take a few guesses and attribute it to the stress in my life at times, but it's all so strange. I think what was really wierd is that I woke up in the middle of the night after having these dream to a large thunderstorm and lots of wind. Maybe that triggered something? Meh.
Lots to do today. Got an email from my dad demanding I come back home a day early. I need to get away from here.
Told Lou I'd take on a big project for D1 so I should get started on that too. I guess I will never cease to be an over-acheiver, lol.
