Thinking about buying pet fish, an intruder

I have many full sized aquariums of tadpoles which I keep on the shoulder of a country road. One aquarium has a single very large tadpole in it and I wonder if it's because it does not have to compete for food but then realize it is a species I don't keep. It looks like the frog in a children's book about animal ears that a friend's kid had at dinner last night in waking life.

I am outside of a house by a large tree and have decided to go to Forest Lake Pets to get fish to keep in my office. As this is something I've thought about in waking life, I am unsure if I'm dreaming or not. I think about whether I should get fresh or saltwater fish and wonder if I should decide how much I want to spend before I go. I try to call my friend N. to see if he wants to go with me but mistakenly call my brother. I explain I called him by mistake and we have a short awkward conversation because he's paying attention to a game of Monopoly he's playing with his family. I think about calling an ex-lover who gave me a gift certificate to the pet store, but decide not to as I doubt she'd want to go. At this point, I'm convinced I'm not dreaming.

I become aware I'm in my bed and hear the water cycle on for my hydroponic chilis. I also hear noises coming from the kitchen and become alarmed that someone may be in my apartment. My hands are folded as if in prayer but I can't move my body or wake myself up. I try to yell, "You get out of here" but can't yell either. I struggle to become awake and it seems I'm able to move my feet. I try to yell at the intruder again and it seems I was able to get a few words out although I don't know if I actually yelled or if it was just part of the dream.
