I gotta be in love or something like that.

enamouredI woke up about nine A.M. and went back to sleep. And lo, within that stretch of time, it was as if my subconcious said, "Let's completely freak her out with a trippy as hell dream! About her favorite show!" And it happened.
So basically, it starts with me on the beach and hallucinating a whole lot. I start seeing black and white images of Boone and Shannon and Sawyer dressed as a cowboy (I blame my friends list for this). I walked past Bernard at some point. I wanted to go see Hurley for some reason, so I keep going down the beach.
In the meantime, I bump into this Asian guy who looked kind of like the computer lab guy at school, and I start babbling about something and then I end with "and I think I'm gonna be the next one to die." So this guy looks at me like I'm crazy, and I just kind of stupidly smile and wave and pretend I haven't said anything to him at all.
I get to Hurley, and he's telling a story to a group of about four little girls. The sky, at this time, is super-gray and really overcast and the tide is coming in higher and higher on the beach. I was trying to tell Hurley something but he was otherwise occupied with the kids. So finally I butted into the conversation or whatever with the same tirade from before, and, of course, ending with, "I think I'm going to die next."
And then there was that dramatic beat that precedes a commercial break. That was actually really funny (well, to me for reasons I cannot explain).
So when the break is over (hee!) one of the random Red Shirts (who looks like this girl I used to go to school with years ago) asks what I'm talking about and I say, "I can't swim!" And she's all, "How can you not know how to swim? How old are you again?" and then someone screams and someone else (I think it was Sayid) is all "RUN!" and the waves are coming in faster and getting bigger and bigger and I'm all, "OH GOD TSUNAMI" and start running towards the jungle. Everyone is screaming and running and for some reason Locke is passing out guns--not any that they actually HAVE on the island, more like semi-automatic weapons. In the meantime, I start running like hell for wherever it is I'm supposed to be going. And it wasn't the hatch.
So I get to wherever, and... have you ever been to one of those little country churches that have like, all sorts of rooms for Sunday school meetings and stuff? If not, well, I've been to a few Little Country Churches like that, but whatever. So this place is like, an underground country church and I go in and walk down this hallway. There's a whiteboard with a drawing or picture or something of something religious and I start hysterically reciting the Hail Mary, and then I spot the kitchen of this place and it's like I'd been there before, oh em gee. Inside the kitchen are a bunch of people I'd never met before but they reminded me of all the people I've basically been to church with before. There was this sliding window over the sink and I could hear kids talking and singing in the room behind it. I turned to one of the women in the kitchen and asked her if the kids had been there very long or if they were leaving soon, because everyone from the beach was coming in and needed a place to stay and stuff, and she tells me it's still early and the kids would be there for awhile, so I guess it was like a day care setup or something. And sitting at the counter is this other woman and her teenage son and she's telling him how to clear up space on his laptop's hard drive.
I step into the hall and I'm thinking, "Dude, I wish I had my laptop." And then I'm like, "Oh yeah, stranded on desert island, no power." Except, uh, there's electricity in our shelter. Yeah. So I run into someone else and the lights are flickering and we go down this dark hall and we see this little sliver of gray sky peeking from behind the mini-blinds that cover the windows, and this person I'm talking to is all, "It's getting REAAALLY dark out there" and then the walls start shaking and I'm all OMG IT'S THE MONSTER WAAAAH.
Apparently everyone had gotten into the place safe and had started settling into these scads of rooms, making themselves at home and stuff. I start walking around, trying to see who's in what room and whatever and I end up standing outside the room Sawyer's crashing in and he's chilling in this bed and we're talking and stuff and then I wake up.
Yeah. But the whole "I can't swim!" thing coming before the GINORMOUS waves thing is just a mite on the creepy side. So basically: I would be doomed and go the way of Shannon and Walt (for hallucinations/seeing things that AREN'T THERE and for saying serious Sixth Sense crap).
But amusingly, a while after this I thought, "Okay, so who would I be? The sheltered kid who's first trip overseas ends in disaster? What would my flashbacks be like?" And then I figured I was insane and need to go out more. The end.
