I’ve been having some wickedly vivid dreams these last couple of weeks.  The doctor once told me that I have an “overactive dream life” because I remember my dreams more often than the average person and I have nightmares more often most.  But recently my dreams have come with intense feelings and urges.  I wake up and even though I know it was a dream, I still think I have to do something here in real life.

Yesterday morning I woke up and wanted to go around tying down all the stuff in the room.  I had a dream about the magnetic reversal of the poles (and for some reason it effected gravity too…)  But the dream was intense and was all about the magnetosphere giving way and all the electronics in the world being wiped out.  We were living in a world where people were dying because they were unable to function without electronics.  No one could hunt, fish or farm.  People were killing each other over bottled water and canned Spam.

It was a strange dream but when I woke up it was even weirder.  I read about the recent discovery of the leaks in our magnetosphere.  Turns out, the scientists were wrong about the field alignments and we are most vulnerable when the Earth and Sun’s fields are aligned.  This gives us the possibility of the solar cycle causing widespread havoc in about four years.  That puts us in 2012.  Wouldn’t that be the craziest thing if all these loony nutjob morons that have been talking about the world coming to an end in 2012 turn out to be right?  Maybe the world doesn’t have to end but a major cataclysmic event that turns us back into primitive tool workers might be kind of cool.  I’ll miss my iPod but I’ll welcome the extinction of all these techno-reliant morons that surround me every day.  If you can’t drive to the store without a GPS and you can’t talk on the phone without an implant, you are on the list…
