Anyone else have dreams with their alarm clock in them?

I get this about 2-3 times a week where I'll be dreaming and there is this annoying noise that I cannot find the source of it.

This morning was really bad. I actually knew it was my alarm clock going off but when I hit the button on it nothing would happen (well what I thought was the button). I was wandering around everywhere asking people if they heard that noise and I asked if they could hear me (I figured if I was dreaming they couldn't hear me). I mean I was dreaming that I knew I had dreams about my alarm clock sound being a part of my dream. At one point I realized I was going to be late for work but I took a shower and yet it was this cramped shower and the only shampoo was really nasty cheap stuff PLUS the blow dryer was plugged inside the shower. Then I went to get breakfast at the dining table our family had when I was a kid yet oddly enough Eric Northman was at the table eating a bowl of cereal. Right after that my cat Abbott jumped on my bed and woke me up (that last part was not in the dream - it was my cat jumping on my bed that got me out of my dream and finally turned off that annoying alarm clock).

It usually involves me trying to ignore the source of the noise. The I wake up late because in my dream mind the alarm was some other thing.
