Ever have one of the dreams that's so ridiculous that your own sleeping subconscious refuses to take it seriously?
Had one of those last night:
I found out a former friend of mine was getting married (which was odd in itself). Seems she invited me (even more odd) via email only 3 days before the wedding. I met her at a bar in Arizona that night (weird, as we both live in Sacramento) and she looked... younger somehow. My recollection of the next 2 days is fuzzy, but we saw each other a lot over those days.
I clearly recall the night before her wedding. She, the Best Man, and I were at my parents' house in Texas (??). I had still not met the Groom, but knew he worked in Mexican law enforcement. She went to bed early, leaving myself and the Best Man drinking beer at the kitchen table. The Best Man was Captain America, by the way. I asked him these questions:
1) What's the Groom like? Is he a good guy? The answer- he was Captain America's best friend.
2) And he's a police officer in Mexico? The answer- "yep".
3) Why are you wearing your costume? The answer- "just in case".
4) I'm very confused- how can they get married when I doubt her family approves? The answer- "dunno, but they are getting married tomorrow".
5) Why the hell am I here? Why did she want me here? The answer- a stare and a shrug.
At this point, I stopped, looked Captain America dead in the eyes, and said "well, this has to be a dream, doesn't it?"
And I woke up.
Oh- did I mention that throughout the whole dream (which was supposed to occur over 3 days) that the refrain (and only the refrain) from REO Speedwagon's "Keep On Loving You" was playing continuously in the background?
