Alligator Alley?

It had been raining for hours--maybe even days--when Telima was ready to get into her car and go back home to her husband. She waved to Keryn and darted through the rain to her car, parked in front of Keryn's house. Standing in the front doorway of her house, Keryn watched Telima hurry to the driver's side of the car, fumbling to unlock her door. (cue ominous music)

Just then, in the overflowing gutter beyond the trunk of the car, unexpected movement caught Keryn's eye. To her horror, a huge alligator was slithering rapidly toward Telima. Occupied with the locked door, Telima was oblivious to the danger.

Keryn screamed a warning. Startled, Telima looked behind her and screamed. Moving remarkably quickly for a pregnant woman, Telima raced around the front of the car, darted up the stairs, and into the house. Keryn slammed the door, glimpsing as she did the alligator slithering back into the gutter.

Now what to do? Panting, Telima looked at Keryn, her hair dripping water into her face...

...And then Keryn woke up. Anyone want to translate my dream?
