Recursive Dreaming, fortified with Monsters
Last night, I dreamed that ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
orcjohn and I were professional monster hunters, and we were called in to take care of a dinosaur that was ravaging the countryside. When we got there, we discovered that the dinosaur was some sort of battlemech in the shape of a tyrannosaurus rex, which meant to us one thing: salvage! We climbed up the monster, ejected a little fellow in a jumpsuit that was driving it, and took possession of the thing. We then discovered that it was like a transformer, and would compact down into a monster truck, which was really cool, so we converted it, and drove the truck to the Ritual for Business, for which our monster-hunting gig had us running late.
The RfB had been re-envisioned as a musical, which was being performed in the Theater I Wasn't Supposed To See. There were also acrobats, and a woman with an accordion. The accordionist had some role in advancing the meeting agenda, butorcjohn and I didn't know what it was, because we'd missed the beginning and we had a hard time catching in. But the important part is that kittenpants and triadruid were there, and I left with them.
We drove downtown, where a kaiju film was being made, and were drafted to be extras. I was issued a binder top for this purpose, since they were shorter on men than women. This somehow worked. That would be the part where this was a dream. We worked on the film for a while, which involved being dangled off a bridge in one part, and then we went back to EHQ.
When we got home, I took a nap on the couch. (Yeah. I dreamed about sleeping. This should be the most efficient use of my time ever.) And while I was sleeping, I had a dream. In this dream within a dream, as it were, I dreamed thatkittenpants, triadruid and I were getting married (to each other), with diermuid officiating. We were having an argument about whether or not you could use the phrase "holy matrimony" in the ceremony. kittenpants was measuring for rings with blue ribbon.
Then, I woke up from that dream (but was still actually asleep), and I was thinking "Wow, that was odd", whenzylch comes in and congratulates me on my upcoming wedding. So then, I'm really confused. Was she seeing inside my brain, or did the conversation I dreamed really happen? I couldn't work it out. So I started to do some sort of divination that involved cutting squares out of a quilt in some way, but I never figured it out at all, because the alarm went off.
Now, I'm pretty sure that the first bit, withorcjohn and the battlemech monster is about the Gaia budget and finance issues, which we were discussing last night. But I'm losing the symbolism about the time the accordion comes in. Also, sadly, the meta-sleeping did not seem to net me any more restedness. Oh well.
