Introduction I've only had a few truly memorable dreams, but I will keep track of them here and type them up from my new notebook whenever I get the chance. Please feel free to comment on any of these.

"Mitchell", the Childhood Nightmare Age: Somewhere from 4 to 7. I was in a rented house we stayed in for a week for a family vacation. The house was on Lake Gaston in North Carolina; I had always loved the house, and still do, even if I haven't been there in years. I was walking down the hallway and into the room my brother, cousins, and I had been using. There were a few bunk beds in the room. I sat down to tie my shoe. As I looked up, I saw a pair of eyes glowing at me from under one of the bunk beds; basically the cliché nightmare. I was frightened and turned to run out the door, but as I turned, my arm swung and hit whatever was under the bed. It was a cat, and I had smacked the eyes out of its head. It was a green cylinder with a black dot on each end; that was what I imagined the cat's eyes were for some reason. I ran back down the hall, not screaming, but rushed. The last thing I remember is being driven away in the family minivan. As I looked back on the house while we were driving away, I saw the cat sitting atop the chimney of the house, glaring at me through a pair of empty sockets.
