The Dreams of Hannah

I dreamed there was a couple named Hans and Garoshka. They were deeply in love, but couldn't get married because one was a monster and the other was a human (although it changed which was which from time to time). It was also intermingled with Hansel and Gretel, and occasionally one of them was named Grendel (as in the Beowulf monster).

I dreamed my family and I were being chased by an evil president who wanted to make it illegal to talk about God on MySpace. We were hiding in his hotel suite when Mom suddenly decided to explain to me how we had the Bill of Rights and the Constitution and even though he was an evil president, he couldn't do all that much to us because we had these rights. (Turns out, when I woke up, everything she had told me in the dream was stuff she had been telling the kids during school. Apparently I was hearing all that, right down to a statement she made about evil presidents not being able to do all that much to us.)

I dreamed a national tour of Les Miserables was coming to town, except it starred Wayne Brady and Colin Mochrie from Whose Line Is It Anyway as (respectively) Valjean and Javert. It was also playing at a theater called the "Just a Friend Theater."

I dreamed that I was meeting up with Jamie and Cathy from The Last 5 Years, but somehow there was time travel involved, where I had to go back in time with them and keep them from meeting, because if they met they'd get in a car accident. Going back in time, though, I also ran into Mom, who was clearly in college and didn't recognize me. (No, I did not watch Back to the Future last night.)

Car accidents seemed to be the theme here. At another point in the dream, Dad was driving me somewhere, and then he slowly turned around and began driving back the opposite direction, but he was in the wrong lane, so he was heading straight toward a bunch of cars. I screamed at him for a bit, then grabbed him around the neck and somehow moved him so that he was going back in the right direction. He got really mad at me and started yelling about how I couldn't take a joke.

There was also a portion where I got a CleanFilms version of some movie with John Cusack in it, but they kept not editing out really disgusting gory parts (nearly all about car accidents). At one point, someone got stabbed in the middle of the forehead with a pen, which was gross, but at another point there were three people whose heads had all been cut off and were now roasting in a pan. I kept going, "I can't believe they left this part in! I don't want to see it! Ew! Gross!"
