I often have terrifying dreams. In fact, I can honestly say I have nightmares at least 4-5 days of the week. They either involve the end of the world, or me dying in the process of saving someone else’s life.

In my dream last night, there was a solar eclipse the day after there was a lunar eclipse. It got dark and everyone was talking about “the end”. I just said, “What, you’ve never seen a solar eclipse before? Big deal.” Then people started talking about how the magnetic field was shifting dramatically, and at that moment it felt like the ground turned on its side. (Think of that scene in Inception when they tell Fischer he’s dreaming and everything around him slides away.) Everyone was holding onto whatever they could find just to stand straight. The earth continued to do this on and off in five minute intervals, and people started running. At one point I ran passed a building that slowly leaned forward until it finally collapsed. I looked beyond in the distance and saw The Stratosphere fall over on its side. I was scared and didn’t know where to go or what to do.

Then I woke up.
