 I’ve not been well physically and it’s been giving me odd dreams.  

Last night I had a dream that Barack Obama was the head coach of the Washington Wizards and I was at a game with seats right behind their bench. He looked really tall and old, like he was wearing a mask. I only remember after the game when I went over to him and tried to shake his hand but he smiled at me and didn't say a word and we walked together out of the stadium. Then everyone left to the parking lot and I couldn't find the car and soon something happened, I realized that some apocalypse or something had taken place and everything was tossed about and there were gangs of wild people and dead people roaming around the streets. Then I found a car and I was driving it and somehow three other guys I didn't know were inside with me, and we decided to band together and survive. I was driving and avoiding thieves, zombies and debris all over the roads. I was trying to reach some sort of civilization and then I noticed that my car was almost out of gas and out of electricity too (there were two gauges on the dashboard). And it was freezing outside suddenly, like Siberia in the winter, and I told the others after I realized we were low on gas: "If nothing else, the car will give us shelter from the weather." Soon after, the car was dead. So the four of us ended up in a huge room full of busted chairs and furniture and garbage, and a larger gang with dozens of people came and threatened us if we didn't give them something. One of the guys I was with handed over burnt and mangled American Express card and said the gang could use it all they wanted after all this chaos had cleared, and they left us alone. And the entire time I was dreaming I kept thinking to myself, "This movie is really good; I can't wait to watch the second half tomorrow." And I’m not feeling well and will be going to bed soon so maybe I’ll get to see it. 

This dream was different from any I’ve had before in that it was choppy and came in fragments instead of a consistent stream of thought.
