Dream Blogging from the new bed

I had a long kind of strange dream early this morning. It started at some kind of fair, where people wore costumes. I saw 2 little girls dressed as bugs, one was a big blue beetle and the other was a blue and purple ant. From there, I was being rushed along a hallway, I got the sense that I was underground, in a subway system maybe. I was being pulled along by Jason Bateman, who I think was playing his Arrested Development character, Michael Bluth. We were going down some stairs when I noticed a funny door along the stair case. There was a tiny sign next to the store that said "Ye Old Records Shoppe, Golden Memories" When we forced the door open, the space dropped down beneath and we had to step on top of a refrigerator and a recline to get to the floor. There was an older man than, who at first looked like Jeffrey Tambor, also from Arrested Development. He looked more like Oscar than George Sr. though. There were all these strange old things, and a lot of things that looked like junk. There was a little wind-up diorama of a lumberyard or something, where you could see the little logs moving through and different little figures chopping them up, smoothing them out, and pushing them into a water way. At this point, Jeff (my husband) was there with me, and as we looked around, I realized that the store was full of things I had lost over the years. I found one old notebook with story ideas in it, mixed with doodles and school notes from college. But some of the things were changing, even as I looked at them. I picked up a picture of a little girl with glasses and flipped it over, and on the back it said "Jen, 1990" before the text faded and the picture disappeared" And I got worried. I said, "that wasn't mine, am I not supposed to be with Jeff? Did something go wrong?" And I was jumping and stomping around until there was thunder from the back of the room and monitor on an old computer on desk went black and then lightened again. The shop owner (still played by Jeffrey Tambor) said, "now don't get angry young lady, why don't you just sit down and rest a minute" And I fought him for a bit longer, but I did then sit down in an old plaid recliner in a dark, dusty corner. When I opened my eyes, Jeff was standing in front of the computer screen, which was now showing a dark sky filled with stars. I came to stand next to him, and the shop owner said to me "Now the only light you have in there to guide him is this," and he pointed to the diamond on my engagement ring. We seemed to be getting ready to skidoo, a la Blue's Clues, (Blue Skidoo, we can too!)
into the computer screen.

After that, we were underground in a coffin, and I think we were being played by Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock. They were both dry and corpselike, kind of like Geena Davis and Alec Baldwin's characters in Beetle Juice. We were trying to pile up other coffins to climb out. That was the end because my alarm went off.

That's all for now, I have to head to work. Merry Part and Blessed Be!
