hmmm ...

I dreamt I worked for a television station and we were up for an award. I needed to be on my way to my mother's but I had to go to the ceremony because I was up for an award even though I only worked as a clerk. They were being held at an ancient airport on the banks of a huge body of water. It was a dark blustery day. There was a tin sign, green and white, kind of rectangular with black writing on it I don't remember what it said but it named the airport. It was fluttering back and forth in the wind. I was very anxious because I'd not called Mother to let her know I'd be late, and someone said the ceremonies would be over by 3 p.m. and I thought that would be fine, that's not too late. I went up some stairs into a paneled and carpeted area where the ceremonies were going to take place. There were fewer than a dozen people there, I was with a woman, a blonde, young woman who was giving me the dirt on all the people that came up to the podium. I started getting fidgety because the ceremonies dragged on and finally she told me I could go so I started to leave. I got out to where my car should be and I put my key into the lock of a gold colored car and an alarm went off. I desperatly looked around for my car and there was a litter of really tiny kittens scattered around the lot and the grounds and I knew Mother was going to be furious with me because I was going to have to take some of the kittens home. I started up a sidewalk and one horribly deformed kitten on one really cute black and white kitten ran up to me and I knew those were the ones I'd take. I went into a building that resembled a library and I think I was looking for a phone and there were men walking around, non threatening just wandering around, and there were a couple of policemen there and I fretted when I saw them because of the alarm I'd set off on the car. I ended up in a bathroom and had like, an overnight bag or something similar and the kittens were in there with me and I was looking for a place to hide them. At that point I think I was awakened.

This was a particularly vivid dream and the area of the airport gives me pause ... I've never seen it before I'm sure. But it was very real. Very strange.
