Dream

I can't go back to sleep. I was dreaming that my husband and I were on two different sides of a boat, sailing the seas. I think there were portholes in the back, where I was. Somehow the boat was split in two, but still watertight. My half was sailing smoothly for a little bit, but then I felt a falling sensation and looked out the porthole. I was going off of niagra falls. There was a lead anchor attached to the boat. When I hit the water, I was going very fast towards the bottom. The boat was collapsing around me, and I couldn't breathe. I was still sinking to the bottom, and the boat was so collapsed that it encased me. I was gasping for air. I awoke, and realized that I really wasn't breathing. I can't sleep now. I just had to lie there for a minute and breathe. I think part of me is scared to go back to sleep for fear of waking up not breathing again. This only happened one other time, but it was much scarier. I woke up gasping. It took me a minute to catch my breath. I couldn't sleep for a few nights after that one. Well, I hope at least there is a good movie on now.
