Desert Drive

Two dreams, nearly identical: in one, I was making a road trip from Arizona to California. It was summer, and I knew this because it was still daylight at 8pm. I knew I had to leave soon and that meant having to drive across the desert all night. I was nervous about this, but shared my fear with no one. I saw Mylah, Carrie, my mom and other familiar faces. We were all in Arizona and I think others were leaving for California too. Carrie in particular was driving a large old blue car, something from the 1950s, like a truck. I was still packing and trying to make sure I got out on the road while it was still light out.

In the second dream: I was packing and unpacking and packing for the trip from Arizona to California. I got as far as driving away, and ended up making a U turn and going back because I'd forgotten something. I saw my mom and she asked why I hadn't gotten on the road yet. I explained I had forgotten something. I recall lots of packing in the backseat of the car, checking and re-checking that I had certain items. And the fear that I would have to drive all night in the desert without lights.
