It's tough being the guy who has all the crazy dreams because when you tell people about them, they don't think they are funny, they think they're a sure sign of full blown craziness and now is the time to notify the authorities.
I was on a trip with all of my old high school. Everywhere I turned there were familiar faces and every time I said 'Look at those assholes, what are they doing here?', one of my friends would retort, they've changed, they're good guys now". I didn't quite believe them, but went about the museum anyway, examining the treasure in it's nooks and crannies.
At one point we all went out to the top of the parking garage to hang out and take a break. Sitting in a giant circle we talked about whatever. I looked over and saw 8 scattered funnels of wind and freaked out; pointing and screaming that tornados were on the way. We gathered quickly and moved all of our cars out of the way, and huddled in between them. When the first funnel hit, Tracy and I went down a few floors and inside a theatre. Huddling between the rows of red velvet seats on the hard cement floor I could see the rest of the tornados approaching and watched as one smashed the window sending me to the floor and shards of glass everywhere. Tracy's cat Logan was there on the ground (your guess is as good as mine as to why Tracy has brought her cat to a trip to the museum), comforting us by licking our hands. In a last ditch attempt we ran for a bus and hauled ourselves in it. It was immediately sucked in by the twister and we were sent hurling upwards. I blacked out.
When I woke up a Matthew Good song was playing denoting the sense of flying high into the sky until their was no oxygen left and suffocating at the beautiful sight of the earth. The bus went hurling down and landed on a hill with minimal impact. I scrambled for the wheel, hot-wired the bus (something I know how to do in dreams) and proceeded to drive even though I had no idea where I was going. In the end I lead us down highways and country roads to a small community that had been flooded.
