My Gaga Inception

The following is a story I shared with a friend of mine and thought I'd do the same with you....

So I have this thing about dreams. Mine tend to come true in some way or form. I've dreamed of death and it's happened to that family I dreamed about. I dream about weddings and then one of my friends will get engaged. I also have a tendency to dream about tornadoes in the spring. For obvious reasons. This spring is really no different.

But in addition to these dreams, I also have been having some quite odds ones. I had a dream last week that Lady Gaga was stalking me. It was creepy and I woke up sweating. Anyway, this is sort of a two part story-- so I'll tell you this-- I was driving home on Friday through all of those awful storms. I was literally driving through Collinsville, Illinois when they came over the radio saying if you are in Collinsville then take cover. I pressed on the gas and just kept going and all of a sudden Lady Gaga started singing on the radio. It hit me-- OH MY GOD, this is it. That's what those dreams were about-- today is the day I'm going to die.

Okay so that's the first realization I made.

Another thing about me in case you don't know is that I'm obsessed with palindromes. If you don't know-- a palindrome is a work or series of numbers that reads the same forward as backwards. like the words mom, dad, radar, etc. Well I was at breakfast two weeks ago with my friends Sceleta and Eric and I was telling them how my whole life is a palindrome. My initials are AMA, I was born on 929(Sept. 29) at 858 in the morning... the four digits of my social are also a palindrome... my dad said I'm going to marry someone named Bob. So anyway--- I was telling Sceleta and Eric all of this. And Eric says, "So I guess that means you are going to die naked, crying and going through a tunnel." As in my life started that way so if my life is a palindrome that means it will end just the same. I thought it was brilliant and hilarious.

Okay, back to riding in the car in the worst storm EVERRRRR. I then started thinking again OH MY GOD this is it-- this is how I'm going to die. And then I thought about what Eric had said a week earlier and was like OH MY GOD... the tornado is the tunnel and it's going to rip my clothes off so fast I won't have time to cry, but the rain will be coming down and be my tears! All of this will happen while Lady Gaga is singing YOU WERE BORN THIS WAY!

yes, that just happened. But really it didn't. I survived to tell this pointless, ridiculous story. You're welcome.
