It was a dream, though, and I woke up right after it happened.<\/p>\n<p>Last night I had a dream where I forgot to pick my mom up from the airport and when I got up it was 10AM and she was already here. I woke up right after that dream, too, and I checked the clock. I had set my alarm for 5:45AM and the clock said 6:24AM. I rushed downstairs, threw on some clothes and my glasses, and ran outside. When I got outside I noticed frost on the windshield and I had to take care of that before I could leave. I drove as fast as I could (not passing anyone, but not going the speed limit) and made it to the arrival gate to find no one there. I called my sister right away to find out if the flight was delayed, and it wasn&#8217;t. It was 6:56AM (I can tell because of cell phone logs).<\/p>\n<p>So I waited. And I waited. I was parked outside, and I walked around outside my car to look in the windows. There weren&#8217;t that many cars, but I couldn&#8217;t just leave it there without having Homeland Security bother me, so I just walked through all lanes of traffic to see inside through the windows. I moved the car back about half a city block to get a better view. It was 34\u00c2\u00b0F outside, and I stood outside my car until I was half-frozen to make sure my mom would see me.<\/p>\n<p>At 7:33AM my mom came outside and found me. Turns out she was inside waiting for me, away from the windows. Yeesh.<\/p>\n<p>I was kind of worried about the alarm. My dad (who both my sister and I don&#8217;t want to be like) used to sleep through his alarm every day. It could be beeping at him for a full hour and it wouldn&#8217;t be turned off until someone else went in and shut it off. I was afraid that I was becoming more like him. So I checked my alarm clock this afternoon. It said it was 2AM on 1\/1. I think that means that there&#8217;s just something seriously wrong with that alarm clock.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Before I describe the dream I had last night, I had a dream the night before last where I was in the dark, and I knew I was in the basement, and I was yelling at my mom to turn the lights back on.
