Don't have much to write today. Actually, I don't have the time. So I'm just gonna dig into my 'Spare Blogs for when I don't have time' bag.

I don't think I've ever shared with you my strangest dream ever. For you dream interpreters out there, feel free to interpret away.

It starts out on an island, where a prison is built. I'm part of a covert operations team, sent in to weed out some terrorists who had taken over the prison. (Sound familiar?) There's about 5 of us there. One of the people on my team is Bruce Willis. Yes, THE Bruce Willis. Don't ask why I'm having dreams about Bruce Willis. Winona Ryder is also with us. She's actually not part of the team, she's Bruce's girlfriend who came along for the mission. Once again, don't ask. I can't control my dreams.

Anyway, We're in the basement of the prison, and we have to try and get to the west end of the prison, where the terrorists are holding some people hostage. We're making our way through, and we realize that Winona is gone. Bruce says that she must have gotten scared and stayed by the beach where we entered the basement. We get to the area where they're guarding the prisoners, and manage to take out the men on guard, and get to the prisoners. We go forward with the prisoners to where we know an exit is. We break through the gateway, and find outselves in a pretty modern garage. There's a bunch of cars there. In the garage, we see Winona. She looks angry. She tells Bruce that all along she's been working with the terrorists, and that we've fallen into their trap. She's got a can of gasoline, and she begins dousing the whole parking lot with gas, as well as herself. The girl has gone mad.

Bruce calls her crazy. She says she never loved him. Bruce looks at the rest of the team, and says "Get everyone out. I'll handle this." The look in his eyes tells us that he's not expecting to come out alive.

I turn to Bruce and say, "You can't do this! There's got to be another way!"

"You know there isn't," he says to me, as he looks into my eyes, and clutches my shoulders. "I've got to do this." And at that point, we have a moment. You know, one of those movie moments, where the two leads realize that they're in love with each other. Queue the sappy romantic adventure music.

"Bruce, no..."

"Listen, I promise, I'll call you after this is all over. And you better answer your phone, because it'll be me on the other end." he tells me. Yes. That is the stupidest line ever. "Now get outta here!" he yells as he shoves me toward the exit.

As we all start running away, I hear him yelling to Winona, and I hear her screaming. Then I hear him say 'NO!!!!!' And I hear the explosion. And just like in the movies, I hear it first, but I can feel it coming, as the sound of the explosion gets louder. "Everybody down!" I scream. Just in time, because as we dive down behind a doorway, a huge fireball comes through and the ground starts shaking. I can almost feel the heat from the flames.

After the explosion, we start running, and make it outside of the prisoner. The hostages are safe. The rest of the team is safe. I collapse from exhaustion, as I look at the prison, which is crumbling down into dust. I reach into my backpack for some water, and realize that Bruce's phone is in my bag.

And then I wake up.

Doesn't that suck? I tried going back to sleep, but I couldn't finish the story.

Hope you enjoyed it! I like to call it - 'Armageddon the Rock'
