soooooooooooo confused

last night apparently instead of a nightmare, i had a dream about being able to eat lots of chocolate mousse (which i definitely wouldn't do in reality (1) i don't like chocolate that much, (2) having mousse as a snack is definitely not allowed by my self-imposed diet anymore...

anyhow, imagine my state of mind, when one minute my head is dreaming of chocolate mousse, and then next i'm jolted awake by my clock radio.

moreover, when the clock radio goes off it's in the middle of johhny cash's "man comes around", and so my head goes from mousse to, "...Some are born an' some are dyin'. It's Alpha's and Omega's Kingdom come. And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree. The virgins are all trimming their wicks. The whirlwind is in the thorn tree. It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks. Till Armageddon, no Shalam, no Shalom. Then the father hen will call his chickens home.... (etc.)"

and while i still have my eyes shut and am trying to figure out what on earth is going on, the DJ breaks in at the end of the song and comments "dude, that's one freaky song, but shouldn't every song about death have the word 'chicken' in it?"

my head is still spinning.

had i been awake, it probably would have made moderately more sense... now that i've looked up all the lyrics, they're actually kinda cool. find them here: http://hit-country-music-lyrics.com/johnnycashlyrics-mancomesaround.html

now to get a move on
