This morning, I had two very unusual dreams. The first had me in a sort of play-within-a-play episode of Doctor Who; the other had me running into one of my old bosses at the grocery store.
In the Doctor Who dream, I was (oddly enough) at a large catered event of some sort. The Doctor (David Tennet) came bursting into the room with a female companion (Donna?). For some reason, he needed to marry her. For some even more bizarre reason, he felt he had to practice putting the ring on her finger with me?! Afterwords, I was like ‘Wow, I hope someone got a picture of David putting a ring on my finger’ and when I went up to ask him for a copy of any video the had of it, he said sure and waved over the camera crew. But then I realized “Why would they film that? If it was supposed to be part of the show, why wouldn’t they pick a real actor? And if it wasn’t the show but was really the Doctor, why would their be a camera crew?” I think my brain realized it was in a conundrum and switched dreams.
My next (remembered) dream was me at the grocery store running into one of my old bosses, a more straight-laced, Christian family man I don’t think I’ve met. He seemed rather dazed when I said Hi to him; as the dream went on, he got more and more raggedy looking and his speech was very slurred. He admitted to me that he was stoned and was looking for munchies. As I learned in my little pop-sci course way back Freshman year in college, everyone in your dreams (even David Tennet) is really you. I think this was my fear of what may become of me if I remain unemploed too long. Although I’ve definitely drank plenty, I’ve never used drugs. I think this is just an exaggerated view of ‘giving up’, a concern I hope things like this blog and other activities will help me avoid.
