Dream

I had the scariest dream this morning. It occurred right in that sleepy period between sleeping and trying to wake up. I was in my cozy bed fully alert to the blankets and warmness and the fringe on the edge of a pillow that was tickling my face when all of a sudden there's this motion where it feels like someone just sat on the edge of my bed. The blankets tightened over me and the bed scrunched down a bit. I got scared and I tried to discreetly open my eye to look over and see if I could see someone. No luck. Then just as quickly I heard and felt it get up, my blankets loosened and the bed raised again. My heart pounded just a little faster as I officially woke up and sat up.

Now...I don't believe in ghosts. So let's not go there. Either it was a strange dream (what does it mean?) or there was a stranger in my apartment who thought it would be a good idea to watch me sleep from sitting on the edge of my bed. The former doesn't freak me out as much as the latter.

To this second, I still don't know if I was awake or asleep.
