Michael Caine + Richard Burton = Weird Dream

Apr 29, 2009 18:26

So I had this insane dream last night. I have nothing better to do right now so I'll share it with my tiny amount of readers, lol!

I was riding around with some guy in a pick-up truck. I remember thinking I had two rats (or fish?) and had to make room for them in our home (I think I had just moved in with him). He and I didn't get along at all. We pulled into a parking lot of a store which I frequent in my dreams, only there were less stores there than usual and I didn't see anything worth stopping for. Until I saw the two photo booths and the poster of a couple. The girl had on a blue top and jacket and the guy had on white pants and a white button shirt and resembled a young (late 1960's) Michael Caine (no glasses; what a rip-off). I looked over and saw a couple who looked just like them. As I said to park, the guy had already started parking and I felt like I should have shut up and just let him park and then I could have complained about it, even though I wanted to park, too. I just hated him that much to complain, lol!

So I ran over to MC and begged him to help me out. He said he had a new girl now and didn't want me hanging around messing it up. We had previously dated and when I like someone in real life, we date in my dreams and it always comes back up later on. I told him that the guy I was with was a jerk and abusive and he still didn't wanna help. But then the guy came over and grabbed my arm, told me to come with him (he was jealous) and MC stepped in to help. The guy was gone out of the dream and MC took over the role of the possessive guy from the truck. (Got that?)

I kept telling him (MC) that I wasn't interested in him any more (see how weird this is?) and he wouldn't accept that. I tried not looking him in the eyes because I knew if I did, I'd end up taking him back. (I just spent ten minutes looking for a photo to show how pretty his eyes our but of course I can't find one.) Then his girl comes over and she's completely fine with me and a bunch of us sit on benches outside the store and she gets a song going. I said I can't sing but ended up doing so and having fun with it. I looked out into the parking lot and saw a wall of names and was trying to decide who I wanted to show up. It was a choice between Richard Burton and Anthony Hopkins (who would have been much more fun if I could have worked Hannibal in). I decided to go with RB because he has the best eyes (see a theme here?) and decided not to bring in AH as well because that would be too many pretty eyes at one time.

So RB shows up and goes into the store, I told my friends I'd be right back, went into the store, saw RB down an aisle holding a baby and talking to some woman, ran down the aisle and he was already gone. Found him in the dairy section looking at milk. I walked up beside him and purposely bumped into him and his cart, said sorry and stood there looking at the rolls. I felt some, he felt the same ones, our hands touched, a worker girl (my friend) shows up and gives me a glass of Vodka and ice, I thank her and take a drink. I notice that RB has on a blue dress and a long curly wig. Figured he didn't want people knowing who he was.

He went up front to the help desk and I followed. Two cashiers. One was helping him (he was behind the counter) and the other asked what she could do for me. I asked if I could pay for my stuff there, she said yeah, I put it all up on the counter. I put my drink there too, hoping he'd ask for a drink or ask where I got it. He didn't. I looked down at the cigarettes and grabbed a tin of Marlboros (I smoke in my dreams; go figure). He wanted a pack so I put one with his stuff and it turned out to be a tin of gum. Apparently he liked it because when I asked if he wanted a pack of cigs, he didn't care, but was having my cashier pile all these packs of gum onto his side of the counter. I asked what he was doing and he said, "Buying gum!" His total price came to 20,000 pounds! (Why pounds instead of dollars, I don't know, but I was thinking that was a LOT since it was the 60's....which it actually wasn't, but I guess my mind made it so because of their ages). I made a comment on how pricey it was, he didn't mind paying it.

He said he had no plans for tonight, and didn't know anyone. I said my friends and I were having a party outside and he was welcome to come. He agreed and out we went. He sat on one end and I sat on the other. MC wasn't thrilled, nor were my other friends who wondered who the new guy was. MC's girl saw me come out and said, "I was worried about you!" because it was now dark outside. I said I was getting snacks. I passed around some Pringles and chocolate-covered peanuts and seeds. RB sat quietly, I lit a cig, I was waiting for a reason to find out he wasn't a woman and was actually RB, but I didn't just wanna reveal it. The time never came because I woke up.

What a very strange, but interestingly fun dream.
