dreamed: jumping an open drawbridge with pete

this was a “i thought this was real” dream. pete and i were driving to some event we were late for, and he wouldn’t slow down even as we started up the steep incline of the raised zakim bridge. (ya, i know it’s not a drawbridge, but it was this time.) i was saying, “whoa, stop.. hey, it’s up. stop stop stop! ahh!” we went over the lip very obviously without enough speed to make it to the other side. i was thinking, “no. .. yes, this is really happening.” we had time while falling to look at each other, roll up the windows and unbuckle ourselves. (they were good ideas in the dream.) i even decided my camera was too heavy to swim with, so i took out just the memory card instead. the impact was soft, and his little car floated. we opened the windows, paddled to the bank, high-fived, and started the car. it was fine.
