Surreality

One of the most surreal things I've ever experienced -- walking across a deserted campus in the pre-dawn with a dense fog blanketing the whole place. It was like I was the only person on earth! If I hadn't had an exceptionally perky Rossini tune frolicking through my head, I would have scared myself pretty badly. A snippet of my internal monologues:
Wow, this is Jack the Ripper weather! He could be lurking around any corner, or straight ahead of me... (cantiam, cantiam, cantiam, cantiam!)
It's as though everyone else on earth disappeared over night. I could be the only one left... (In si ridente, ridente suol...)
That light makes the fog look even thicker, like I could touch it, as though if I try to walk through it I'll suffocate... (cantiam, cantiam, cantiam, cantiam!)
I can feel it like a blanket inside my chest. I can feel it clogging my lungs, squeezing my heart... (In si ridente, ridente suol...)
That vague shape moving over there, what is it? It could be anything from this distance, animal, monster, or man... (Si, cantiam, cantiam!)

Sometimes an overactive imagination is simply too much fun!
