Kids, Vertigo, Tsunamis: A Dream

I had a dream that dozens of family members that I didn't know at all had visited with ten or eleven prepubescent nine-year olds running around and screaming. Then the adults decided that we should make food for the picnic, so all of the kids got out their blenders and put in whatever food they liked and blended it. I was a bit worried about the one which had mixed meat and milk together.
Suddenly, I found myself in a movie theatre with all of the same obnoxious kids, and we were about to watch Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo (which always seems to appear in my dreams). At the opening titles (which were quite different from what they really were) the kids started laughing uncontrollably, and I whispered to my mother (who seemed to be next to me) how I felt that I could strangle them.
Then again, suddenly I find myself on my bed crying because Radiohead had come to Green Bay, and as a result has caused a mega-tsunami the size of skyscrapers. I pictured it in my head with the most unbearable dread. The thoughts became so real, that I in fact drowned right there in my bed.
(It is good to note that at the same time this blonde girl whom I happen to know was laying right beside me with a feather in her hands.)
After drowning I found myself on a ship, traveling across the Bay and I was somehow the captain because some much shorter guy kept on coming up to me, asking me what to do. Strangely enough, I was in complete and total control of the ship, and somehow just couldn't get across these little ripples created by the water.
I eventually picked up speed and the ship crashed right into a hotel on mainland (it is worth noting that the hotel had Victorian design and was quite old). I had deliberately done that in order to "end with a bang" and upon emerging from the oddly unscratched ship, the few people who were at the hotel bar (which I had crashed into) cheered for me with tequilas in their hands.
I then was transported back the the theater in which we were watching Vertigo, with those damned kids talking out loud and laughing. I still wanted to strangle them.
