1566 dream

[evile]

last night's dream was about some play my mom was doing, about
dinosaurs & xmas, and sponsored by WalMart. We were apparently going
overseas, and I was the stage manager or prop-master, or something,
so I had all this CRAP I was hauling, suitcases, bags, duffels,
boxes, extra jackets & coats, pockets full of stuff, and so of course
everyone else got thru customs and across this bridge just fine and I
had to stop in this grungy area next to the bridge and let them go
thru everything. I was exasperated. One of the customs guys gave me a
kiss and told me I was doing the right thing. I gave the supervisor
lady some American cash, and she gave me all these coins for change.
It looked like a mix of American pennies & foreign coins. I don't
like carrying a bunch of change, and I didn't have any room in my
pockets, so I gave it back to her and asked if there was some way I
could get a bill instead of a bunch of coins, and she took a $10 from
me and then gave me this coin that looked like a key. Then they
weren't going to let me bring in all the props, and I gave this
speech about how we could do the show without our stuff, but that it
would be like doing Swan Lake with only the male lead. Sure, he's
pretty & all and he could pantomime all the lifts & stuff, but it
wouldn't be the same performance. I think they let me go through
after that, but I don't remember.
