Dream

I was bicycling to Vermont from Rhode Island with my dog Lily but somehow, in dream-logic fashion, I was driving a jeep. I heard Lily whimper so I assumed she was in the back seat but when I stopped the vehicle she was not inside. I panicked. By this time I was in Vermont. I got out and walked over to a small round table in the shade between two brick apartment buildings. I sat down and spoke to a lady about my lost dog. She'll find me, she's done it before, I said. I don't know how she does it. I imagine she follows my scent but I was in a vehicle. Then I thought, Well, I don't smell that bad. I woke up and there she was. I hugged her. I was full of adrenaline from worrying in my dream and my ears were tired from the fan blowing air at my head all night.
