All the dreams about boxes had sunk into my subconscious, but after reading through the thread I've found that I'm remembering them quite clearly. They're strange.

My latest dream started with me in a shoe shop. The sounds of fighting started to spring up further down the road, but we all stayed put, doing our shoe shopping. Suddenly cars screeched to a halt outside, and they opened fire on us, shattering the window. We all dropped to the floor, and I managed to drop myself in full view. I was shitting myself, eyes closed, just waiting for the bullets to hit, but they didn't. Eventually they stopped, and the people in the cars set up camp outside the shop. Somehow I managed to sneak out of view to where most of the other shoppers were. As the day wore on, we found a goods delivery hatch, and carefully escaped through it. Skip forward a bit, and we're camped out in an abandoned farm outside town, and the bastards in cars screench to a halt outside. No guns this time, though. So we go through the same camping thing again, night falls, and we decide to make a dash for it. Whilst we were bricking it in the farmhouse, someone had found a map with an old sewage shoot marked on it - concreted up in the barn. I volunteer to run out with a sledgehammer and smash it, then make good our escape. As the gunmen go to sleep, I carry out the deed, and as I'm running back to the house to tell everyone, I trip over something, make a lood clatter, and wake a gunman up. Obviously I freeze, in plain sight (but it's dark, don't forget)... so the bugger turns the spots on the cars on, and I'm crouched there like a rabbit in a headlight. I can't see him until he makes a noise and pops up from behind a wall in front of me. It's me looking all dapper in a tux and shades, and holding a gun... which I point... and shoot... right into my bloody teeth. At that point I woke up screaming "FUCK", waking up half of the corridor with me (luckily it was coming up to 8, so no-one was too pissed).
I dozed off again, was woken up by my alarm clock, sleepily turned it off, and dozed off a second time, slap bang into a dream where Corridor Girl was in my room complaining about the incessant beeping of the fire alarm (my alarm clock was going off again).
