Had two dreams last night:

1) There was an oval spaceship killing off its inhabitants emanating from one point in the oval all the way around in both directions.  only one person could walk into the dead zones and see what was happening.  everyone in the living zones (for now) had no idea how far they could venture and tried to keep as far to the middle of the living zone as possible.  the last view in the dream was the pov of the one person who could venture into the dead zone watching as darkness fell on the edges of the living zone, marking them for death next.

2) I was listening to the friend on a giant cruise ship tell me how she lost her u-line boat after rescuing it from left so many times only to have it capsize just a few meters away.  I thought, hey, I'm a good swimmer and can retrieve it (a whole boat?!).  I swam out to flip the boat over and it kept sinking, i pulled it back up and bent it assuming the curves were the problem, then realized it was a woman's shoe, suddenly just as small.  very midnight blue and sparkly.  surprised i let it sink in the clear tropical water.  then i was afraid of what was in the water underneath me and decided to swim back to the ship very slowly.  woke up in the tension.
