Last Night's Dream

Last night I had one of my weird dreams, the ones that mean something. Unfortunately this time I don't really know what it means.

It begins like this. I was in a Meijer-esque store. It also for some reason has seat like Barnes and Noble. I hear a man hitting and yelling at a female companion of his that she is worthless and a whore and need to lose 300 pounds (and some other stuff that I cannot remember fully and should not repeat in my blog.) I watch him walk toward me with the woman and another following and I see others looking disgusted but not saying anything, and I, sitting down, say that I think that what he said and did was inappropriate and it should be stopped. He says, "Oh yeah?" or something that could equally be heard from a television bad guy.

I stand up and turn to him and he is HUGE and sweaty and glares at me malevolently. He yells at me and slaps me across the face. I in turn, slap him back. (Yeah, because I'm just that brave in my dreams.) He lunges after me but I get away. I begin to speak to the cashiers and the passers-by to see if anyone noticed what he had done and would be willing to go on record. Curiously not very many people want to have their names taken down (This I can pinpoint as being due to my occupation and the inconvenience of having sources who don't want to be named. Grrr on them.)

I walk around and get some people who will comment and hopefully get this man convicted of assulting at least me and away from this poor woman. I speak to them and say that it made me feel like one of those "What would yo do segments on television, and didn't want to have to answer later why I hadn't interfered." A woman I was speaking to responded that this was interesting and suddenly Tyra Banks appeared like she was on her crap of a talk show and came out to interview me. Then I woke up.

Weird yes, the weirdest dream I've had? Not even close. I can pinpoint several sources of where things came from: I was in Meijer's the other day, having unnamed sources is inconvenient and I nostalgically watched Newsies the other day which has quite a bit of slapping and fighting. As for Tyra Banks, it seems as much as I try to avoid her she is on TV at all times, and always expounding on the wonders of her shows and her modeling career.
