Strange dreams, embarassing symbols

I had one weird dream this night... I hate when this happens. Sometimes, after such weird dreams weird things follow up that match these dreams too closely. Bad thing is, however, that the feeling of whether this is one of "these" dreams and what exactely would happen (or when, even) usually is too faint. The last time this happened in full effect (dream plus consequences) is 9 years ago. Back then, it was a strange and frightening dream, which I reported to only one, two friends, and what happened was about half a year later. But the connection, despite the long distance of time, was painfully obvious.

Now, back to the present case. Usually, when there is a heavy rainstorm outside, I dream of rain and spiders. Or at least of rain. Not this time. I dreamt of a pretty freakish scenario. It was one ordinary, beautiful day. I was living wit my family (I had a husband and children, could you imagine? I can't...) and then suddenly, I was informed (I can't remember how) that a comet was about to hit the earth and destroy everything. We were all pretty desparate. But frankly, our main concern was: why did the  government not inform us in due time? We suspected it was because they would not want us to break lose in total chaos, since nobody could change anything about it.

Strange enough, life  around us went on as usual. No panic, no riots, no specials on TV, no nothing. We ourselves went on as usual as much as we could. Only thing was that we went out of the house when it was supposed to happen because we knew we were not safe inside the house anyway, and we wanted to  see it coming. When the countdown was over, we saw nothing, and nothing happened. We were informed later (again, no Idea how) that a) some brave folks were able to make this comet pass with only little harm (it had to do with the ocean but I don't get that part straight) and b) the comet was only to affect vampires. Not all life on earth. Me and my family were shocked to the bones. After all, we all had been vampires. The kids included.

Now gimme a break... vampiric kids? A comet that only affects vampires?? Come on, folks! That is so lame, even WW had it before me! This is embarassing!! (Meh... at least it was not a red comet...)

If anything, I am willing to interpret this stuff metaphorically. Maybe as "something that might have a deep and destructive impact on the VC at large or in my region" at best. Something potentially harmful for everyone (even for later generations) that can be prevented, be turned into something less harmful or even good by a few main actors. But I have absolutely no clue what tis would be. Or, as I said, whether this will happen at all. Or when, if.  But I feel warned. It was a dream scary enough to be one of "those" dreams. They do sometimes come in weird metaphors.

Even made me confused enough to completely forget where I parked my car. Thus walk the distance twice. Thus be late for academy. Oh well.
