DREAM: T-Rex attacks and skimboarding

I had no skimboard when I arrived at the beach. … Then some how I obtained a skimboard and was skimming pretty well and garnering applause. … I had no sensation of getting wet at all as well. The beach felt like Chigasaki in Japan, but most people seemed to be American on the beach. Some of the youths trying to skimboard might have been Japanese.

My second major dream was also exciting, only because it was life-and-death. A T-Rex was hunting a group of us in a suburban neighborhood. … Actually, I’m not sure where the other 4 or so people (some made up of ultimate players from Futako-Tamagawa) were most of the time. They seemingly were trying to escape by getting in a van in the front yard. I made frequent ventures from the back of the house to the front, and even outside playing cat-and-mouse with the T-Rex. I calculated where I could go based on the physical size of the T-Rex; I knew he couldn’t follow me to this one area because of a kind of pedestrian bridge attached to the house. In this manner I tried to bait it to go into either the front or the back of the house so the others could escape. I just remembered that Locke from LOST was one of the people there because the T-Rex ultimately met a strange fate. There were large stones around a pond in the back yard and it picked one up in its mouth and bit into it hard. … I felt we should all get in the van and go right then, but Lock suggested we kill the T-Rex off for sure, and he said it with malice. I felt no malice toward the T-Rex, only some fear as I ran back into safety each time I dared to challenge it outside. I woke up not knowing if we all left or what ultimately was the T-Rex’s fate.
