Dream: Rocket ship!
Stupid me decided to take an afternoon nap. Ended up waking at 10:30 PM. But i was so upset when i woke up becuase i never got to launch my rocket!
So I'm this guy in a small town. And i'm building the first rocket to ever go into space. I'm building it with some friends and it's made out of old cars. It is of course 1950. The cockpit has that minted green fabric on the seats. Lots of exposed metal but complimented with chrome trimming.
You'd expect some seat belts. Not in a 1950 rocket! You have holy-shit handles. The leather straps from the 1950's car.
Well eventually this big truck came and tilted the rocket for us on it's side and was bringing it to the launch pad. When we looked out the window, the entire town was there to watch the launch. I was really happy at the turnout because I wasn't expecting anyone to care. A good 100 cars were there in the big grassy field where the launch was to take place.
While preparing for the launch i realized cold air from the outside was getting into the cockpit. Of course a roll of duct tape was handy. Unfortenatly the roll of duct tape was dollar store version and didn't stick well. Also the jet engine was unusual. There was a large part of the jet mechanics at the tip of the rocket and it ran through to below the craft. It was the part it ran through that was leaking the cold air. Lots of duct tape. Eventually masking tape also.
I woke up . Didn't get to launch the rocket . I tried hard to go back asleep and continue my dream ... It didn't work
