I was taking a walk by myself down my road a little before dusk. It was snowing just lightly, but the ground was icy and my cheeks were stinging. As I walked on a little bit, I saw a bunch of construction vehicles in the road and up by people’s houses, and they kept pulling out in front and behind me, like they were almost trying to hit me. I kept walking and the temperature was becoming warmer and warmer as I went on. I soon found myself coming to the middle of my town (which is normally over an hour’s walk from my house), and it now felt like almost 80 degrees and was sunny. There were tons of people on the sidewalk like it was the tourist peak season. There were lots of girls wearing bathing suits and shorts, and I was still wearing my winter coat and hat. I felt out of place and weird, so I turned back to go home. As I was leaving I saw this gorgeous girl walking toward me on the sidewalk, and we locked eyes. She smiled at me and then I could tell she was looking me up and down, but I put my head down and walked past her. Because I’m a dumb coward in my dreams too apparently.
