Hello, my name is Deborah Martin

So I had this dream last night. I was at my old house outside sitting on a picnic table with my family. In my forward range of view beyond the horizon I saw the ocean with glaciers and animal that appeared to be bears and penguins. So I was so excited that I ran over to the house to get the binoculars. As I was walking back towards the picnic table in the opposite direction of the glaciers there was a big polar bear in the distance walking around “the circle” (there was a hill were a parking lot was and there was a cul-de-sac with a smaller hill and a tree in the middle). He was very angry and as I spied him, he spied me and for some reason decided he wanted to take his anger out on us. So I ran to my family and said we should all get inside because there was an angry polar bear after us. We get inside and my family took their old normal positions in the living room (Dad on the lazy boy, Mom on the couch and Brett on the computer). I locked and shut the door and when I sat down I noticed it was cracked open, so I got up and slammed the door and locked it again. I repeated this process a number of times because the door always seemed open. Finally in a panic I slammed myself against the door and dead-bolted it. Well for some reason this made the door have a 4-inch gap and the polar bear was growling and sticking his nose in the gap. I closed the gap by continuing to twist the dead bolt in the center of the door. Well for some reason the polar bear was unwinding it. At this point I was in hysterics and I woke up.

After I fell back to sleep, I had another dream that I was in Boston with a ton of people right after work and we stayed out all night and early that next morning Scott told me that he hooked me up with a ride directly back to work with a fellow co-worker that happen to be in Boston as well. The strangest part of the dream is that I was pissed at him for not warning me in advance that we were going out that night because I had all the time in the world to prepare since I was sitting in the house all of the previous afternoon after fighting the polar bear. Apparently I was successful in warding him off! It’s kind of strange how one dream referenced the other.
