You think that's bad? I once dreamed that I was in Lord of the Rings. I discovered that the One Ring was in my backpack, so I grabbed it and tossed it to Aragorn, who mysteriously appeared in our living room. Meanwhile, also in my backpack, I had discovered a tiny Orc. I grabbed it and threatened to hold it in the sunlight, then all of a sudden it was my sister's hamster. Talking. And then I woke up. Of course, that's nothing compared to the Lincoln/atom bomb dream I had once. Won't go into it unless asked.
I am asking
First, a little context: It's a running joke among my friends and family about how much I despise Abe Lincoln. Whatever you may think of him, my hatred is necessary to understand the humor in the dream.
Part one: I was looking at some sort of map of the southeast US, and noticed a demonstration of a bomb that would destroy the entire region. Suddenly I realized that there WAS a super-bomb, and saw that it was getting increasingly bright outside. The house began to shake, then my vision filled up with really bright light.
Part two: I woke up surrounded by white walls, floors and ceiling, as well as white sheets. Obviously some version of pop culture's view of Heaven. I sat up and looked around, then noticed a conveyor belt carrying Halloween costumes. I followed it through a door, and who do I meet? ABRAHAM LINCOLN, and he was freaking SMIRKING at me! It wasn't a pleasant feeling, as it looked like he was the only person around. I felt VERY relieved when I woke up. Everyone I tell that to cracks up.
