Alien Attack

Looks like I'm on a dreaming spree these days and that too the strangest of things. I know I said this in my last post Dream On too. I had this dream yesterday and though I haven't recorded all my dreams, I thought I'll type this one as this was a little weird.

It all starts with me and some friends of mine standing in the terrace looking at the stars and constellations (the after effect of watching 'The Wrath of the Titans' I guess) with a huge telescope. Suddenly we spot a car shaped star (I had discussed about Adobe Illustrator with a friend yesterday, who is a Graphic Designer and I was told that a star can be modified into any shape using that software). My friends start jumping and shouting in excitement. We start discussing about that star when suddenly we hear footsteps. Its as if someone is running towards us.

We are all shocked to see the President, Sylvestor Stallone (LOL!! I know I know how it seems now!) walking towards us. He was quite serious when he announced that Aliens are planning to attack Bangalore and that me and my friends have to fight them! We are surprised and tell him that 'we haven't seen any aliens through the telescope. Even if they attack, how will we fight them and how will we defeat them?' He said that he has ordered for some custom made M2 .50 caliber machine guns for this purpose (Rambo??). He said, 'haven't you seen the car shaped star. Haven't you seen any alien movies? Aim for the nose. That is their weak spot. We have to eliminate them fast otherwise they will make us their slaves and rule the world! You are the saviors of the world'. (I don't know in which movie I heard this and I didn't also ask why this job had to be done by us!!!!)

After hours and hours of running, shooting, hiding and again shooting, only me and the main alien are left. The alien had its weapon point blank at my forehead and I had my machine gun on its nose!!!

And then.....BANG!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Woke up with the torch in one hand, pillow in the other and very glad to be alive :-)

Just another Monday evening :-)

As I was sitting in the bus on my regular commute, I saw an old ad for some matrimonial above the opposite seat which read something along the lines of "Mr. Right could be sitting beneath this ad".

One look at the supposed Mr. Right beneath the ad and it quickly confirmed everything. Just that I was staring at a middle aged woman, reading a book and frowning at something she read :-)
