I dreamed last night, I got on a boat to heaven....

Not....exactly.

So last night I had a dream that several of us were in a Mrs. Byland production (and I would add "in college" here, but I'm not entirely sure we were) and it was a children's version of Urinetown. (Not the place, of course, the musical.) But it was very shoddily put together and we were all in a regular clothes because our costumes weren't there for some reason. And we were in full performance mode with an audience. But even though it was Urinetown, in the middle of it there was "Friend Like Me" from Aladdin and a giant Genie puppet that looked awesome, especially in the midst of the fact that we had no scenery or costumes or anything.

And then in the middle of that song Andrea (yes, from OBU) slid onto the stage on her knees with her arms extended in victory because a prop had arrived just in the nick of time. It was a bracelet. I don't know why that was so important.

But then later the UPS guy that had brought it showed up in the balcony and announced "Hey! I'm the guy who got it here just in time. Also, I'm going to be 33 this week." And I clapped for his birthday, but I was the only one and so he left.

And then we had no idea how the show was supposed to end. We hadn't rehearsed it and I guess we hadn't even read the script? So suddenly - in a desperate attempt to figure out how to end the show - someone grabbed me by the wrist and said "Hey Joker, what do you think now?" or something and suddenly I'm supposed to be the Joker. And in the dream I know I have to at least carry out a little bit of time as the Joker or it would just be weird. So I'm running around pretending to be the Joker and after several minutes someone whispers with a sincere grin "Do you like it?" as in "Do you like the way this is wrapping up?" And I yell (as Joker) yell "Do I like it?! DO I LIKE IT?!"

And then the guy who was suddenly "Batman" (again, sans costumes since we have none) suddenly acted like he was putting a needle/shot in my face and I went to the ground screaming in acted agony. And since I was wanting to put us all out of our misery Joker died from it.

And in the dream I remember even thinking "This is just as weird as poison boot." 

And then I had to take some kid I didn't know home. Since it was a children's production and all.

A few nights ago now I dreamed that Holly, Sam, Brad, Regina, Eric & I were all in a car.

And we drove up to this house.

Where, for some reason, our relatives & friends already were. But somehow we had relatives that looked like Godzilla-style monsters and some others which I thought - even in the dream - Wow, these guys look like they're from Ahhh! Real Monsters.

And then there was this Oogie Boogie look alike from Nightmare Before Christmas and he ate some of our relatives.

The monster creature feature looking ones, that is.

And that was okay, apparently, because all of us stayed and hung out.

But before we left we - I guess - suddenly realized we had to free our relatives.

So I started stashing scissors in my back pockets trying to hide them so I could use them as weapons. And somehow Will showed up and all of us were hacking at Oogie Boogie. And we could see the monsters. But Oogie told us that we'd never free them because he was.... too emotional?

And then in the midst of the hacking, I noticed King Ghirdoriah was in there because I saw his three heads. 

And when I woke up I was racing around chasing children and throwing them into the car for safety.
And I ran past someone who was sitting on a stump with an axe.

The end.
