last night i dreamt that andy and i were getting married, and it was the day before the wedding and i’d totally failed to get wedding plans together(1). there were no flowers, my dress wasn’t ready, and i’d forgotten to make wedding favors for the guests. plus, we’d planned the wedding for a tuesday and so practically no one could come. there was no wedding officiant, so i was going to have to ask andy’s dad, who is a judge, to officiate, instead of being a guest, which i thought rather awkward. oh, and the wedding was going to take place in this ugly old warehouse, that was also sometimes a church(2), so the guests that did come would probably look at the chainlink fence and think they were in the wrong place and leave again.
(1)just about every woman i know is getting married this summer, and i’m stage managing a couple of these weddings, hence the anxiety about planning
(2)in the dream, while i was crossing the church, i had the oddest floating sensation, and then i discovered that i could levitate and glide smoothly through the air. it was a cool sensation, and given that i had a lot of wedding-planning details to worry about, i didn’t really think too hard about the causes of this newfound skill. just then a priest entered the church, however, and looked at me and he knew the reason i could levitate on holy ground was that i was half demon(a). he was most displeased about me being in his church, so i realized we’d have to hold the wedding somewhere else. being half demon didn’t feel particularly different, tho.
(a)i blame this on the fact that i was watching charmed while i folded laundry last night. can anyone follow the plot of that show? buffy was so much better.
