I HAD THIS HORRIFIC DREAM THE OTHER DAY.
I WAS ON A ROAD TRIP THROUGH A DESERT
WE STOPPED AT A GAS STATION.
THEN IT HAPPENED.
STREAMING LINES OF SMOKE
GOING UP.
ALL OVER THE SKY,
HUNDREDS,,
THOUSANDS OF THEM..
NUKES.
THE SKY WAS MASHED WITH CRISS CROSS PATTERNS OF SMOKE TRAILS.
I SHOUTED AT WHO I WAS WITH TO GET INSIDE.
WE GOT INSIDE, CLOSED ALL THE DOORS, I DID NY BEST TO RADIATION PROOF THE WINDOWS
AND DOORS USING CARDBOARD AND NEWSPAPERS (ONLY THING READILY AVAILABLE)
WE GOT DOWN BEHIND THE COUNTER (BREEZE BLOCK, FLAT BUILT GAS STATION)
AND THEN FLASHING LIGHT, THE SHAKING OF THE GROUND AS IF THE EARTH WAS TEARING
ITSELF APART BENEATH ME.. AND THE LOUD NOISE - A HUN THAT WAS so LOUD NY HEAD WAS
ABOUT TO EXPLODE FROM THE CENTER
THE THREE OF US AND THE STATION EMPLOYEE WERE ALL HUDDLED TOGETHER BELOW THIS
METAL COUNTER.
IT FELT LIKE IT WAS OVER IN MINUTES.
THEN CANE THE WARMTH..
THE RADIATION POURING OVER ME..
LIKE UNCOMFORTABLY HOT ..
IT WAS HURTING BUT IT WAS BEARABLE.
AFTER SPENDING A BIT OF TIME UNDER THE COUNTER, WE GOT UP, AMAZED AT BEING ALIVE
DESPITE THE PAIN AND STUNNED, WITH NO IDEA IF THERE WAS A WORLD OUTSIDE,,
THE BUILDING WAS STILL STANDING
EVERYTHING WAS TINTED ORANGE AS DUST WAS EVERYWHERE, LIKE A VICIOUS SANDSTORM
WRAPPING ITSELF AROUND EVERYTHING AND MASKING ANYTHING FURTHER THAN A FEW FEET IN
FRONT OF THE GLASS DOOR OF THE BUILDING.
I SAID IN THE DREAM TO THE PEOPLE AROUND NE - "WE CAN' T STAY HERE, THE RADIATION
WILL KILL US, WE NEED AN ENCLOSED PLACE!"
I TRIED TO GO OUTSIDE TO GET INTO A DARK RED/ RUSTY LOOKING TRUCK COVERED IN
SCRATCHES AND DENTS,
I GOT ABOUT u FOOT IN THE HOWLING ORANGE LIGHT BEFORE I BECAME SCARED AND REALISED
NY OWN MORTALITY IN HORROR,,
I TRIED TO TURN BACK BECAUSE THE PAIN WAS UNBEARABLE, IT WAS LIKE I WAS ON FIRE,,
THEN AS I WAS DYING ON THE FLOOR I WOKE UP.
I WAS SWEATING IN NY BED.
PRETTY HORRIFIC RIGHT?
I STILL REMEMBER THE FEELING OF THE RADIATION
I' M ACTUALLY HORRIFIED AT THE IDEA OF A NUCLEAR APOCALYPSE NOW
THERE IS NO WAY FOR NE TO SURVIVE IT,
I DON' T HAVE A BUNKER.
NUKES WILL STREAM INTO THE SKY AND WITHIN AN HOUR THEY' LL FALL,,
WHAT COULD YOU DO IN 40 MINUTES TO STAY ALIVE?
IT WAS A HYPER REALISTIC DREAM. I FELT EVERYTHING.
I' M TERRIFIED OF NUCLEAR WAR.
So NY QUESTION FUNNYJUNK IS -
NUKES WILL STREAM INTO THE SKY AND WITHIN AN HOUR THEY' LL FALL,,
WHAT COULD YOU DO IN 40 MINUTES TO STAY ALIVE?
