The Dreams of Hannah

I had a long dream, but I only remember two sections. In one, Jayme wanted me to babysit Andie for a few days, except Andie was a LOT smaller than she really is. She was like an infant. Jayme took me out to the garage where apparently Andie's baby stuff was stashed, and as we walked past it, she was like, "Don't mind the hairy growling monsters. They don't come around as often as they used to." Then it flashed ahead to a time when I was baby-sitting Andie and the family was going to zoo. I was ticked that I had to carry Andie around with me wherever I was going. (For some reason we didn't have a stroller or anything.)

The other section I remember was this part where I was watching a movie where Dustin Hoffman played this crazy guy who went to the doctor and the doctor said, "Hmm. Well, you could have a delusional disease that causes people to imagine a tall, skinny man named John McMamoush. Can you read this eye chart?" and the Dustin Hoffman character said nothing and the doctor started prompting him. "Come on, A-Z-L-R..." and Dustin Hoffman was like, "I CAN'T READ IT, OKAY?!"

I dreamed that B'qi was talking to me online and randomly said, "Hanu! I know how to GET MY GUY!" I was a bit taken aback and wasn't sure WHAT she was talking about, so I was like, "erm... what does that mean?" and she was like, "I'm taking your advice!" And my first thought is, "Uh, hello, I NEVER gave you advice on how to get a guy..." But she immediately continues: "I'll go shopping with him, and call him LURTH!"

I had this very long disturbing dream where our family was traveling and on our way we stopped at a hotel. Phil Vischer (uh, yeah, as in the voice of Bob the Tomato and founder of Big Idea) owned the hotel and he turned out to be a very nice guy and tried to make us feel at home. However, halfway through our stay, he started acting weird, and turned out, he was, like... a demon or possessed or something. *shudder* Rather freaky. And like all throughout the dream I kept trying to remind myself that HELLO! God is like 80,000 more powerful than any demon can ever be, but it still freaked me out.

Course later it freaked me out even more because there was this spider crawling around. However, my dad played a tape at it that said "I know who ewe are" and it kept spelling out "E-W-E! E-W-E!" And then the spider turned into a possessed sheep. (Gar.)

I had a dream about Bilbo, except he was a tiny frog. A group of people was (were?) trying to transport him to another time and place, so they placed him in the claws of this brown-and-white bird called a snowfall. The snowfall would fly WAY up in the sky, like above the atmosphere, and that was supposed to transport him. They kept telling him, "This may kill the snowfall, but it shouldn't have any lasting effects on you."

So the snowfall starts... I guess the only way to describe it was PLUMMETING up. As it plummeted, Bilbo started aging. Like really fast. He grew this long white beard. And the bird just kept going, and eventually it suddenly... stopped. And died. Right there in the air. Somebody said, "Let me go. No openings for him to slip through into the other dimension?" and they were like, "Yup, not enough pigeons." ?!?

Then he turned into my brother Seth and I was holding him as I stood on the shore of a beach. There were these giant goldfish floating around in these pools, and each of these goldfish was transparent with several other smaller fish inside them. I remember reaching my hand into the giant goldfish's mouth and pulling out the smaller fish and showing them to Seth/Bilbo, but then the little goldfish would get sick without water and I'd stick them back in the giant goldfish's mouth.

Then some little kid on the beach started screaming and running away from Seth/Bilbo and me. I looked down at Seth/Bilbo and was like, "What did you do?" and he was busy examining one of his legs. If he turned it one way it turned all green and scaly like a frog and the other way, it looked like a normal 3-year-old boy's leg. "Look at this! This is so cool!" he kept saying. I kept telling him to cut it out, that was really stupid, obviously just something left over from his transformation to a human.

At that point, he got this summons to go through this door and meet with these famous businessmen. When we went through though (yeah, I went with him) a man in a dark blue robe and crown stood and said solemnly, "I am the son of King Anderson. I am the new King Anderson." And that's when I woke up.

I dreamed I went to my Performance of Literature class and found out I had to perform something that DAY. My instructor had told us it needed to be a poem at least 30 lines long (he told us that IRL too). So I'm desperately flipping thru my Lit book trying to find a 30-line poem I can memorize in like five minutes. I find some songs from Aida in there (the Disneyfied version, not the opera... that's HARDLY literature) and decide to perform "I Know the Truth." But one of the girls behind me said she was going to do that. Then she was like, "Well, actually, a medley of that and How I Know You." Then the lights went down and we sat down to watch the show and I was still frantically flipping through my book to find stuff. My instructor started getting ticked at the girl who performed the Aida medley and was grumbling, "I shoulda just had all these people perform 'The Bridge'!" which was a poem by... erm, I believe Mozart. Hmm.

I had three dreams all intertwined, let me see if I can remember them now...

Actually, the only one I can remember is one where Micah was talking with me, and then out of the blue, he said, "So you're not willing to call upon the name of the Lord?" which kinda stunned me, coming from a 5-year-old's mouth... so I was sort of like, "Erm, that's not what we were talking about," and it apparently distressed him so much that he went and started putting purple sticks in our microwave. (Uh... tho we don't have one) And Mom was on the phone and turned to Dad and was like, "Micah's so mad he's putting purple sticks in the microwave. Go stop him."

I dreamed I was going out to lunch with Jayme, except Mom ended up coming along with us. Jayme and Mom wrote out a list of what they wanted to order, and then Mom got stuck in a mud puddle in the middle of the road and told Jayme and me to go on without her.

So we went on to this McDonald's, except it was this tiny, tiny, TINY little store that had an arcade video game in there and it was crowded. So Jayme ordered a small order of chicken nuggets (which kind of threw me, since Mom informed me they would be getting a burger for me) and the guy dumped a small handful of croutons into my hand and said, "Come back later, we'll have your order for you."

So we went to Jayme's house, apparently not bothering to pick up Mom, and I suggested she look at the list of stuff we were to order, thinking that she had forgotten I wanted a burger. But she said I had the list, and sure enough, when I looked, I did. So I pulled it out and at the top of the list it said "2 Cupcakes" and it went on to list really weird things to order from a McDonald's... like "4 Vests (No Laterally Dark Whites, of course)" to which I responded, "Oh, that was definitely Mom who wrote that." I also read something that looked like "Syrup", and then, at the bottom, I finally found what I was looking for: "5 Burgers." "But instead we got chicken nuggets," I protested.

Jayme just nodded apologetically. "And we're going to have to split those." I looked down at my handful of croutons and thought, "I HOPE this isn't our whole meal..."

I dreamed I found this site online that had full video performances of all these songs from RENT, so for some reason the first one I open up is "La Vie Boheme", which looks nothing like I've imagined. (Never seen the show live so it's all left up to my imagination basically, heh...) Mark looks pretty typically Mark-ish but he's like whirling around with a baton in his hand instead of standing on the table like he's supposed to... and I think Idina's there as well, but as Elphaba, not as Maureen... and somewhere along the way there was a Christmas tree that everybody danced around...

I dreamed that I was going on a missions trip with Sara and the girls from her church, however only Christy ended up coming along. At the last minute, I found out it was a weekend-long trip to Australia. I protested to Mom cuz, after all, I said, Australia was full of poisonous snakes and spiders - home to more poisonous snakes and spiders than anyplace else in the world. But she made me go anyway.

It wasn't like we were too helpful while we were there either, though. We mostly bought groceries for this woman and turned over a jeep that was trapped in the jungle.

I dreamed I showed up for my drama class and my instructor was in tears. So we were all confused and trying to find out what was going on and he finally said that he was really from Hungary, and right now there was a terrible war going on in Hungary. Apparently he was the prince of Hungary's older brother and was all worried that his brother might be dead.

I dreamed that I downloaded a pigeon off the Internet because I wanted a pet. So I got a real live pigeon. Although it looked more like a duck. After awhile tho, I realized I really DIDN'T want a pet. So I wrapped up the pigeon in tortillas, then in aluminum foil, and then opened the back door and tossed it outside. (What kind of twisted cruel punishment is that?!) But then I couldn't close the back door and a snake and spider crawled into the house. I guess that's MY punishment for so callously ridding myself of the pigeon.

I dreamed I had a group of friends that were doing a study on guys' jeans. (?!) But we bought like five pairs, examined them all, then took all but two back, apparently we were going to keep studying those jeans. The whole time though, we were really worried, cuz we had a friend who ran away to live in Chicago and for some reason we thought she was in deep trouble.
