I had 3 dreams last night.
The Coats of Doctor Who
The first one I was on some sort of street, and I ran into Cathrine Tate and John Borrowman. Then David Tenant came running by in his trench coat. I was with someone who asked where they got the trenchcoats and I pointed out that when the costume was picked, they probably made a whole bunch of identical ones that they could use for different things like rips, burns, or if one got worn out during shooting an episode. It was a fairly simple dream. It was fun to be with the Doctor Who characters.
Wonder Woman Vs. Jupiter
In the second dream, I was Wonder Woman. In my secret identity, I went to help a friend move. He was living in a frat house. There was this really weird toilet that was like a padded bench but at an angle. It was also very portable.
We went outside to sit on a dock that was on a river. It was then that my enemy appeared! Rob had been turned into a woman. First she explained that it felt so much more natural (and she was super hot.) The weird part was that he was no longer Rob but was the God(dess) Jupiter, and who was jealous of me and so wanted to kill me. I think she was jealous because I was invited to the Justice League and hence the only Roman God (Aquaman doesn't count) that was still worshipped by modern humans.
She had this dust made of diamonds that she blew in my face. Because diamonds are the hardest substance on Earth, it made sense that diamond dust would be the hardest to breath. I jumped up and we were fighting but I really just wanted my friend back. Someone I could laugh with and enjoy their company.
I don't remember how it ended, but I hope we became friends again. Maybe even more. [wink]
Edward Gorey Hamburger Hut
In my third dream, I was supposed to go with my boss to do something, but we ended up at an old house. He started doing the dishes, and so I was bored and began looking at the things they were getting rid of.
They had a ton of very interesting pieces. For one, They had painted all the doors in their house in a Medieval looking style, like on tapestries or scrolls, and all the images were of royals having parties, but with like flower pots on their heads, and destroying flower pots. The images were mostly drab colors, but all the backgrounds were green. This would have made them a really fun addition to any garden party, as long as they were paired with a lot of colorful flowers, or hanging flowers.
At first, the knick knacks looked like a bunch of junk like you'd find at a garage sale. There were stacks of small framed artwork that I began looking through. A lot of the artwork were etchings and I was digging to see if they had any original Edward Gorey etchings. The artwork they did have was very interesting and upon closer discovery all had a unique style to them. It was actually an impressive collection of that style of art. They even had these really interesting book shelves that could be hooked to a wall, or be linked to hold books. They mostly had art books. There were figurines, and a set of dishes with the style. It was a little like Gorey - a stylized drawing with cartoon themes, but it was not like Gorey at all in that it was too crowded. It suffered from a lack of whitespace and made me feel crowded. I didn't like it for that reasons, or I would have taken some.
Once Kevin finished the dishes, we realized it was 8:30pm so he needed to get home to the kids. As we were walking I was telling him about Edward Gorey, and he knew who he was. He pointed out there was a restaurant that had some Edward Gorey themed items that served a great hamburger. We decided to stop in quick to get dinner. He said his family loved that place, and at one point they were even selling little grey wagons (like the red wagons) that had Gorey art on them. He and his wife had got one immediately when they found out about them.
The restaurant was like a food truck, but almost built around it. There was a door up to the seating section that had a code and Kevin acted like he knew it but I just heard a bunch of beeping. Then a waiter came out the door, so we went up. As you went around the stairs, they went past a bar, where people were enthusiastically eating hamburgers, which was a good sign.
Upstairs, there was a small area (like DNB but smaller) and the weird part was that there were the holes in the floor, that looked fairly deep, which had iron loops where a hook would go to pull up something heavy. It was like the restaurant was built inside of an old bouy. On the tables were wooden alphabet blocks that were carved in Gorey style. Kevin had to leave but I stayed and enjoyed a hamburger and the atmosphere.
