When I was about 8 I started believing that there was an alien on his way to earth just for me. I thought that if I laid on my side while sleeping then every breath would bring him one step closer. I used to really freak out if I awoke and realized I had been sleeping on my side instead of on my back or stomach. I just knew that one day he was going to catch up to me since I took so many breaths.
