I'll just stay home.

I don't go out much, everybody knows that, but when i do go out, its usually at the bequest of one of my siblings. Let me tell you what happened the last time I was coerced into having a few drinks with some new friends and family.
This was no different than all late night gatherings that include large amounts of alcohol, the conversation drifted to the usual back and forth questions and answers and semi inebriated ramblings that covered a host of largely insignificant topics. The alcohol was doing a good  job of loosening tongues as it is well known to do and as the night went on the topics of discussion became more and more interesting, at least to me. I was enjoying the banter, when, out of the blue what does one of my new acquaintances just have to ask? He leans forward in his chair, slowly looks at each of the other half dozen people in attendance and with a deep, quiet voice he asks if anyone in the room believes in aliens... here we go again.
 The thing is, In my experience most people have never experienced anything truly "alien." At best they have witnessed some mysterious light in the sky, heard a funny sound from inside their closet or the biggie- they had a vivid dream....oooohh.
I mean seriously, this guy proclaimed himself  "expert" on all things alien. But of course after seeing that mysterious light in the sky and being "pretty sure it wasn't from around here." he was totally the man of all "alien" knowledge.
So Im sitting there, quietly, trying very hard to be nice and polite, listening to this guy tell me... ME, about aliens. I swear to God, after several painful minutes of listening to his totally fictional diatribe, I was getting ready to explode. All that was running through my mind was the question, "Is there no-one else out there that has actually met the aliens face to face and more importantly, remembers it?" Must the best they can do is to "remember" feeling a invisible presence in their bedroom or remembers an 'abduction" through a vivid dream or hypnosis?   Cmon  i cant be the only one that has had a daytime fully awake encounter with an alien. where are all the others??
Sure, i met an alien, several of them. Nothing formal, we didn't shake hands or exchange gifts, just the usual, taken at night, go to their ship, lay on the table and get examined thing. Yes,Ive been in their ship, I even went up and down in their anti- gravitational light beam... am I the only one? Another time I watched as an inter-dimensional Einstein-Rosen Bridge (a hole in space/time, kinda like the "Stargate" wormhole) opened up in my bedroom and three men in black stepped out....am I the only one??? seriously.
 I figure I didnt ask for this, what do i do with this. Im the only one that i know of that is telling the truth, and no-one believes me. Yet everyone was transfixed by the ramblings of this total alien expieriencer imposter.
You see, the thing is, this guy that was rambling on, telling everyone all about his expert knowledge of aliens, as full of shit as he was... he was the hit of the party...life sucks.
