Circa July 1997

Age 16

This is one of the most vivid dreams I have had in a long time. I am sitting at my computer; it must be 2:00 or 3:00 in the morning. I am looking at some web page, and notice the red light of my surge protector glowing bright in the still dark of the house. Suddenly a man is behind me threatening me with a knife and a gun. I do not do anything, for I am frozen in fear.

He tells me not to move or I will be killed. He then tells me he will now kill all of my family. He goes back to the quiet bedrooms in the back, and I hear nothing but silence. After a while he comes back and says it is done. He continues to walk around my living room and all I can see is the red light of the cordless phone and the surge protector, then I awake.
