I went to back sleep this morning after saying bye to my girlfriend (she had to work early today) and had a weird dream.
In the dream we were back at the place her parents had rented in the mountains of North Carolina where we had spent a week in September, but instead of being there with her parents we were there with my dad and step-mother who I haven't seen since 2008. I don't remember much about the beginning of the dream except for this vague feeling that we were hiding out at the house to avoid a military draft.
I got into an argument with my dad and stormed off into the woods, and while I was out there I saw a bear. I was just watching the bear go about it's business when my dad came out to apologize. He saw the bear and immediately freaked out and made a run for it. The bear saw him run and gave chase and I made a run for it too since the bear was coming my way. We got inside and closed the door and the bear left for a bit since it couldn't open the door.
After a while we saw that the bear was coming back, it was coming across the lake in a canoe! What's more it was wearing human hands, like it had torn the hands off someone and was wearing them like a pair of gloves, which allowed it to open the door. The bear came inside and even though it actually seemed to be quite calm we were all still very scared of it and ran outside, though the bear managed to take a swipe at my dad. We tried a number of thing to get the bear to leave us alone and go back to the woods but it would always keep coming back. It was mostly me dealing with the bear since my dad was terrified of it and had locked himself indoors.
At one point I was talking to the bear and trying to get it to understand that we didn't feel comfortable with it around but it didn't seem to understand what I was saying. At that point my girlfriend and I weren't really as scared of the bear anymore, it was more like "man, why won't he just leave us alone?" While I was talking to the bear it went up to my gf and gave her a hug and I was like "uh I don't think you should be doing that" and she went "huh? oh right" lol. And this conservative christian guy popped outta nowhere and claimed it was her fault the bear was so interested in us.
I found a football and thought if I tossed it out into the woods the bear would follow it out there, but he just picked it up and tossed it back, so the last part of the dream was me tossing a football back and forth with the bear lol (and this felt very real, I can still feel the texture of the football).
MEANWHILE this older Japanese lady came by the house. She was some kind of official looking for draft dodgers. She found my dad in the house and asked why he wasn't enlisted in the Imperial Japanese Navy and my dad told her that he had been sent home after he was wounded, pointing to the scratch the bear gave him as proof. The lady accepted this and left, and I think it was a good thing I was outside playing football with the bear, otherwise I would have been drafted.
Very strange dream, but I remembered it very clearly which is rare for me.
