Some people arrive in limos, while I tool down the street in a clear acrylic golf-cart-type-thing that has no visible means of propulsion. I'm lost and stuck in a huge crowd and then the cart melts like ice around me and I have to walk. I'm barefoot and wearing something that's a cross between a black Vera Wang wedding gown and a straightjacket, covered in buckles that I constantly have to keep re-fastening or the sleeves will fall off. I'm looking for someone that can tell me where I'm supposed to go and everyone I ask takes my picture before they tell me that they don't know, but the band is upstairs. When I find the stairs, Rob Mailhouse is there. He says something funny that I can't remember and then hands me a folding chair. You have to take your own chair it seems. So I do and the stairs turn into an escalator and then a moving sidewalk that leads to a huge wall of glass doors and I can see a crowd inside. I have to put down the chair to open the door and when I turn around to pick it up again it's gone. I go in anyway and head for a group of a bunch of guys that are ALL dressed like the Wachowski brothers, but none of them are the actual brothers. I'm trying to figure out where to go. One of them asks me where my chair is and I tell him I don't know so he hands me a ticket/flyer that looks like it's made out of foil. I look at it and it's like a mirror (and my hair looks great!) and I can't read the writing on it. Then I think I see Joel and I try and get to him but get caught up in a push of the crowd and end up in this huge dome of an arena that turns out to be the theater, but the screen is round and in the center.
There are red velvet couches everywhere. So I start to look for Keanu whom I can't find, of course. It gets darker and I can't find anyplace to sit. Then I see Carrie-Ann because she is glowing so I go and sit next to her. The "movie" starts. It's very loud but I can't see it. It's all blurry swirls projected on this big ball in the center of the room. Carrie-Ann tells me to go find John (Gaeta) and when I turn around he's right there, handing me his glasses. I put them on and the blurs on the screen turn into wireframe images (that look a lot like the things found at sodaconstructor) and they are pointy and coming off of the screen/ball and moving into the crowd. It's scary and I feel the need to leave. I go through some doors and end up in some sort of restaurant. And there's Keanu in a booth. He's writing something. I ask him why he isn't in watching the movie and he tells me tha he's already seen it. He gives me his pack of cigarettes and I know to light two and I give him one and he uses it as a pencil. I can't read what he's writing even when he tries to show it to me by tearing off little pieces of the paper and handing them to me. They keep falling out of my hand. I keep trying to pick them off from the table but can't and Keanu seems annoyed so he climbs over the table to leave. It's then that I notice that he's barefoot, too.
Have you been on acid again? :-D
I wonder what Freud would say about that... There's bound to be a deeper meaning... But what????
"You have to take your own chairs, it seems" - LOL!!!!

The symbolism in this dream would take days to decipher. Very interesting...
Some would say a wedding gown IS a straightjacket!

Posted by: V. on May 8, 2003 03:16 PMYeah, if Mr. Silver couldn't come through, at least my SUBCONSCIOUS did.
