No one wants to be up at 3 am. Well, sometimes people do. But not me. And certainly not now.
I had this terrible dream where my mother and I were on a speedboat going down this river (in my dream I think it was the Colorado river) and I think we were looking for someone.
Anyway, we go through this thick grove of trees, and come out on the other side, and there's Niagara Falls.
Wow, how beautiful! How amazing! Ack, watch those rocks and rapids.
I think that my mom will turn us around, and get us out of here, because eek! I can think of some places I just don't want to go in a speedboat. But as we near the falls, I'm not entirely sure that she's got control of the boat, and we're getting sucked in by the undertow.
I see a shadow ahead of us, and realize that we're heading into a mini-falls and I scream to her to turn around, and she says "It'll be fun!!" and suddenly we're going over it, free-falling for 3 or 4 seconds, and I can just hear her cackling laughter over the deafening roar of the falls.
I grasp the edging of the boat with my left hand and we go crashing into the water. We come up, but the boat is still submerged, and it feels like it wants to sink were I not holding onto it, under the water. The trouble is the edge of the falls is a good 20 feet above us, and we're just in this little maybe 30x40 foot depressed area surrounded by falling water. Like a little crater.
Who's going to see us? My mom asks me if I've got the boat, and I do, but how will we get it, and us, over the lip of the crater? Does anyone come to Niagara falls who would even be looking for stranded people?
Anyway, I awoke in a panic, and I figured after an hour of tossing and turning maybe if I wrote this dream down my brain would let me sleep.
