Now, it's not that I'm usually attracted to girls, but the other night I had a very nice dream involving one Paris Gellar of Gilmore Girls. She was upset and I was um, comforting her.
I always did prefer her to Rory...

The other night I had a dream that I was on a high school field trip, and the guy who played Napoleon Dynamite was sitting next to me on the bus. He was hipper than Napoleon but still sort of a dork, and in my dream I totally had a crush on him but kept acting to my friend like he was annoying me. He kept trying to put his arm around me and I was like, "Stop it! Eh!" (a'la Melanie Hutsell on SNL) and would like at my friend Jennifer and be like, "Ugh!" but I was secretly loving it and trying to deal w/ my conflicting feelings of liking a dork but wanting to be cool. Ha.

Am another straight female that had a dream about a woman. This woman was Drea de Matteo. We were apparantly at some kind of hospital room about to have a threesome with Michaelm Imperrioli(I know, ugh!). Apparantly it was their characters from the Sopranos I was talking to, not the actors. Well, Drea and I started to get into each other, and started getting it on, completely ignoring Christopher. The funniest part? My name is also Adriana, and Christopher was like Adriana! Adriana! Both of you stop! Niether of us was answering since we thought he was calling the other one. Besides, we were waaaaay into each other. Now, I officially have the biggest "why yes, I will happily fuck you even though I am straight" kind of crush on Drea.

Y'know, I just can't get over the one where Brad Pitt gets eaten by a giant, hovering whale.
What does it mean, people??

I had a dream the other night that I was breaking up with Jude Law, except that I couldn't, because he was such a fabulous kisser, and then of course, we started kissing. And in my dream, I'm still married to my husband, but i keep trying to justify the kissing, b/c "hey, it's just kissing, and it's Jude Law, so he'll understand." Gah. And I find Jude Law somewhat annoying in real life. And my dream morals are absolutely heinous.

I had a dream last night that Peter Tork - you know, the Monkee? kidnapped his estranged daughter and grumpy father and went on a cross country run w/ them in his tour bus. I have no idea where this came from. Peter was young and still apparently touring the US, and was popular enough to have a following of Billie Jean-like disciples who helped him hide from the kidnapper cops whenever he was about to get caught. I swear, this dream was like watching a lost Monkees episode.

Heh! Peter Tork? Y'know, that does kinda sound like a lost Monkees episode...or at the very least, a 1960s movie-of-the-week. Who played the dad? I'm picturing someone like Art Carney.
I almost never dream of celebs...I guess I work out whatever my subconscious has to work out involving them during my waking hours, 'cause I can count my celebrity dreams on one hand. However, I did have one last night, and it was so freakin' odd, I don't know what to make of it. In the dream, I met my family at a restaurant, and as we sat down, I notice one of my sisters is talking to a familiar-looking guy. Just then, she introduces us to Gary Oldman. He smiled charmingly, and I was delighted, since Gary's one of my favorites. I don't generally approach famous folk when I see them, but since he was eating dinner with us, I figured it was okay this one time. So after we ate, I went over to talk to him about Nil By Mouth, a film he wrote and directed, which I loved.
Dream Gary Oldman wouldn't talk to me! Even though he was essentially hanging out with my family, for some reason he simply wouldn't acknowledge my question, nor do more than roll his eyes and refuse to interact in any way. I ended up slinking away, all disappointed that he was such a rude bastard! Bummer.

Wow, how disappointing and unsatisfying, Vacationland. Maybe your dream Gary would have been more excited about his participation in True Romance or Hannibal? The Oscar winners, doncha know. PS the dad was kinda grumpy and resembled Will Darnell from Christine and (crazily enough) Jackie Gleason. The daughter looked like the chubby, bespeckled girl from the No Rain video. Scary how much I can remember after so long. Maybe my subconcious is trying to give me a story idea?

Oh, that's funny...the Bee Girl from the No Rain video is of course the natural choice for casting the child of a Monkee! It actually makes sense, in a convoluted, dream logic kind of way. I guess I was sort of on the right track with Carney; shoulda gone with Ralphie Boy instead of Norton.
It's true, perhaps I shoud've got up in Dream Gary Oldman's grill and been all "Hey, buddy, I sat through Chatahoochie for you! I've seen Dracula all the way through. Twice! The least you can do is be civil, man!" Funny thing is, I've never heard any stories about Oldman being rude to fans in real life, so now I'm wondering who Dream Gary was supposed to represent. Hmm.
I definitely think dreams are a good source of story ideas...after all, they're made up of things your brain is already mulling over for some reason, so who's to say that thing might not be the plot of a story, or a detail you could use in something you're working on? I know a lot of writers who keep paper and pen near the bed to write down ideas that come to them in dreams. Sometimes it's chaotic or makes no sense, but occasionally there will be something there.
Take the obvious fanciful, dream-like elements out of your dream and you've got the basics of a story: a man is forced to spend an extended amount of time with his estranged parent while on the run with his daughter. Make it a custody fight where the guy is the custodial parent, change the groupies to a bunch of activists trying to nab his kid on behalf of his ex who wants to take the kid into hiding, and make the escape vehicle his retired Dad's RV. Follow them as they move among the colorful characters of the RV-park subculture, one step ahead of the would-be kid-snatchers, and have the protagonist come to some kind of understanding and peace with his Dad in the process. Voila! There's your novel. Or maybe a screenplay. I see Mark Ruffalo as the dad. :-)

I've been getting it on with Hugh Laurie and Craig Ferguson (not at the same time) fairly regularly for the past couple of months. I'm embarrassed to say I've been staying up way past my bedtime for a few weeks now just to see Craig and hear him call the viewers "cheeky wee monkeys."
