Last night's dream 7/29/09

Last night's dream...I dreamt that Rosebud, Nigel, and I were on a roadtrip. Rosebud kept throwing up rose petals and Nigel began singing "Take Me To The River" and dancing with his shoulders bopping up and down and he kept asking me, "Do I look like David Byrne, Mom?" I told him, "Yes, yes, you do. Now Mom has to keep her eyes on the road honey." I asked Rosebud if she wanted me to stop the car and she said, "Heck yes Mom I'm barfing all over the car!" So we stop and she gets out and goes over to a big stand of cactus and vomits rose petals all over the cactus and it blooms into a little house. We all go into the house and there is a little fireplace in there with a fire going and a couch in front of the fireplace. The three of us curl up on the couch and pull a big quilt over all of us. A man walks out of the fire and says, "I'm God and Elliott, you are going to have to sacrifice either Rosebud or Nigel." And I reach over to the fruit bowl on the coffee table and throw an orange at him and grab both the cats and hightail it out of there.
Then I'm in a little airplane and Rosebud is my co-pilot and I look out and Nigel is a wing walker. I am wearing one of those old style leather helmets and big goggles, so is Rosebud. So is Nigel. Nigel also has on a cape that flaps behind him enthusiastically.

"Nigel! Get your butt in here!"

"WOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOO!"

"Nigel!"

"YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!"

"Nigel Mewheim!"

"HI MOM!"

He stays on the wing. I am scared but also proud of him.

Suddenly something catches my eye and I look over at the dashboard.

There is an orange.

Rah Rah! The dreams have started up again!! I saw David Byrne and the Talking Heads in the pouring rain at an outdoor concert in Gainesville FLA in 1982. David and the band were under cover but not the spectators. The folks I were with didn't care because we had been partying all day long and wouldn't have minded being taken to rivers by psycho killers.
