Dream Worlds being Active

My most recent dream full of anxiety was having to leave work to go to the bathroom, and meeting Lyric on the way - she beat me to the public restroom (in a red brick building), poking her head out of the door she told me to "keep walking". I get "home" and a co-worker took pity on me and set the bathroom out - an over sized rubbermaid type of garbage can, the flaps on both sides. I crawl in the door on one side and realize I've got the outside flap stuck open. I finally get it closed and realize I'm sitting on top of a closed lid. As I'm able to struggle to get up (the can is about 2 feet shorter than a normal porta-potty) and get the lid up - I wake up.
And ran to the bathroom! (No, not a drop in bed!) Proud of me?
And NO I don't have any ill feelings toward my sis!!! It's just one of those weird things.

And the other last vivid dream that I had...

I was walking in a tall glass building - I was on an upper floor walking down the hall. There was a scruffy blonde guy walking towards me wearing a black leather jacket and he brought up his right arm (so nope, it wasn't St!) with a gun pointing at me. So I felt my thoughts begin whirring - "he's for real! I'd better get down! I wonder if I can avoid him... it looks like I'm gonna get it!" So as I'm bending over to hit the floor, he shoots and hits me in the left shoulder. And since I was bending towards him, the bullet went in the shoulder and down towards my heart rather than just going through the shoulder. So I hit the floor and pulled out my cell phone. I got 9-1-1 on the line and I began trying to get them all the info before he shot me again...and of course I was quite cheery in tone as I was saying, "I don't know where I am but it's a glass building and I'm on an upper floor near an elevator and the guy that shot me is blonde and has scruffy facial hair, black leather jacket..." and I look at him and he's pointing the gun at me again and I'm wondering if I'm going to get it again and thinking I'm bleeding to death and I'm blacking out... And I believe I fell into the deeper dreamless sleep at that point.

Isn't that weird that I was aware enough to realize I'm spinning down into a deeper sleep and then still remember that dream? And not wake up in a panic? I find it humorous my mind and mouth are going overtime on my way out of this existence. Wouldn't put it past me.
