Yeah, it WAS as weird as it seems! I think I shall refrain from reading Lemony Snicket books so soon before bed. The dream was like some odd combination of Lemony Snicket, 28 Days Later and some old British war movie.
*start dream sequence*
The dream started somewhere in the middle of the course of events, but it started with me (as a teen) with a group of other children being chased. We got to a lake and then all these leeches started making a dash toward us on shore. I even said out loud in my dream, "Hey! This isn't Lake Lachrymose!" Oh yeah, and this was apparently in the English countryside and almost everyone had died from disease and injury.
We kept running and escaped those who were chasing us. We got to some obliterated neighborhood where there were all these cellar holes and remnants of houses. That's when I noticed the children with whom I was traveling. All but me were injured in some way and one was in a wheelchair. We started searching the ruined houses for anything that would help us survive when we noticed a house that, while certainly disheveled, was very much in good shape in comparison.
We went inside the house and started to look around. I found the kitchen and a cupboard full of canned food. I opened the tuna with a manual can opener (no electricity) and handed it to one of the other children after taking a bite. I instructed them to each take a bite and pass it along. I told them that while we had found a good deal of food we needed to ration what we found because we didn't know how long it would be until we would find more food in another house or some natural source of food.
Then I started rummaging through the freezer and that's when I realized that the dire circumstances had only just happened. The freezer was full of meats that were still slightly frozen. The other kids had all gone outside by now except the one in the wheelchair. I got very excited and grabbed a stroller and a basket to use as a makeshift shopping cart and started loading up on meats. I started shouting to the other kids that we were going to eat well. Then the kid in the wheelchair started getting all perverted on me and saying things like I was the only one that wasn't injured so I needed to masturbate and it had something to do with healing everyone. I was all like "Ewww! No! I'm not masturbating for you!" WTF?!
*end dream sequence*
I also had another brief dream where Kathy, Kenny and I stopped at a convenience store and we bought five cans of Dinty Moore beef stew. The cashier said something about it being so Blues Brothers and I said, "No, that would be four whole chickens and a Coke."
"Every person should have their escape route planned. I think everyone has an apocalypse fantasy, what would I do in the event of the end of the world, and we just basically - me and Nick - said what would we do, where would we head?" - Simon Pegg
