The life of an assassin

So I took a nap this afternoon, and had a rather strange dream. That I could use a bit of help evaluating.

I was a professional assassin, and everyone on my "TO DO LIST" was a friend or co-worker, and I decided it was a good time to retire. I had no interest it knocking off any of these people who I consider all of them to be more like extended family than just friends. People I actually care about.

I myself have never wanted to be an assassin,
Although I thought the Sylvester Stallone / Antonio Bandaras movie was good.


Here in lays the problem. I suddenly found out that I was evolved in a kind of circle of death and we were all going to have to do the deed whether we wanted to or not. It seemed that I was the only one who was having the problem with the names on their list.

Once I discovered that we all had the same list was when I went in to speak to my instructor at School and he had accumulated a pile of 7 other of my fellow students stacked neatly in the corner, His only explanation was "Come on now, we can make this go real easy".

Well I had no choice I wrestled him to the ground and using the cord on the phone garroted him. As I left his office and locked the door I was greeted by gun fire from a fully automatic SKS for those who don’t know it’s the Russian equivalent of the M16. I look to see who is firing this and it is another one of my classmates who is very pissed that I got to the instructors office before she did.

I manage to flee the scene only to have my car explode via a remote detonator left under my drivers’ seat by none other than my Mother. She was probably still pissed that I forgot Mothers Day. As I run across campus trying to avoid geting killed, no one else on my list is in site.

I hop on the city bus and find temporary sanctuary. I have a conversation with three others on the bus who are not on my list. However, strangely enough all have lists of their own; seems they are all in the same situation with their lists, the same rules as mine.

Come to find out that these are the new rules for the
Publishers’ Clearing House Sweepstakes : If you are the last one on your list you will 10 million dollars. This kind of gives new meaning to clearing House, am I right?


Now don’t get me wrong my first thought about this dream was that I have some fear that they are all out to get me. Any one else have thoughts about this?

A bit of a persecution complex? You feel others are out to get you? Just be sure other feel the same way, otherwise this dream suggest your behavior to them must be pretty radical. Be sure you aren't your own worst enemy.
