My dream last night was very reminiscent of the movie Mars Attacks. I dreamt I was walking around with a friend outside a mall when suddenly something huge flew overhead and out of sight (and I mean huge, and I mean CLOSE). My friend was stunned and asked what the hell it was and I exclaimed that I knew *exactly* what it was, it was an alien ship and that we had better run! (oh the drama!)
Just then a ship so huge I could only see a part of it because it filled the sky flew over our heads and landed on the roof of the mall. We ran for cover inside the mall as did hordes of other screaming idiots. Once inside we heard this loud sound and my terrified (if not moronic) friend once again gasped, "what's that??". And once again I knew the answer, being the expert that I am. I exclaimed that I had seen this before and that the aliens drop big metal walls all around the mall and surround it so we can't get out and then they kill us. Apparently I knew all this from watching Mars Attacks. (hey, I don't pretend to understand my dreams, ok??)
Just then there was more hysterical screaming and people running all over the place as aliens (see what the Mars Attacks aliens look like) ran around shooting and killing. As we ran looking for a place to hide I saw that some of the aliens had been killed too, and that things were getting pretty gory.
Now it was at this point that I seemed to gather up some lucidity because I realized that I had had a dream like this before and it really scared me, and I also realized that I was in a dream right then and that if I was scared all I had to do was end it by waking up.
So I did. hurray! take that you nasty alien!!
