A Meteor is Coming! Save the Clarinets!
band-induced

There is a slew of dreams whose source can be neatly pinpointed as "band-induced". These dreams occur when the marching band has just come back at 1:00 in the morning from an all-night competition on the other side of the state. Obvious signs are random band-oriented themes that have nothing to do with the actual dream, plain weirdness, and the fact that they happen right after a band event.

The scientists were looking through space with their telescopes. There! A barrage of meteors on a collision course with Earth! Not a moment to lose!

However, when I heard the news, I wasn't as worried about myself as I was the clarinets. No, not the people who play clarinets. The clarinets themselves. They needed to be saved! So, I rushed around and gathered up all the clarinets I could find, then went searching for the perfect meteor-proof place to stash them.

The cupboard under the bathroom sink should do nicely.

After making sure all the clarinets were secure in the cupboard, I raced back into town to see if I could round any more up. My search led me to a shoe store. Hurry! There's not much time till armageddon!

But I had a problem. Seems I had somehow become velcroed to the wall of the shoe store, and couldn't budge. But there were still helpless clarinets out there that weren't in my bathroom cupboard! Frantically, I tried to pry myself off the wall, but the velcro held me fast. It looked like it was the end...

And it was the end, because I woke up.
