bizarre dream #1

fever dreams last night.

**

an ex-girlfriend of mine (M.) came to visit me and A., though we were living with my parents. M. had car troubles upon arrival, and called us several times because the car we had waiting for her would not start. we kept waiting and waiting and waiting for her to arrive.

when she did, she was driving a mid-90s pontiac bonneville, except that it was mounted on a monster truck frame, complete with wheels five feet tall, and its trunk had been modded into a dump truck bed.

from there, the dream morphed into george lucas' new remake of the first "star wars" movie -- and by "first" i mean episode iv ... it was family friendly, and did not include obi-wan kenobe, because, i guess, alec guinness is dead. i was starring in it. the highlight was that instead of miti-chlorians being the big jedi secret, it was the ability to dissolve into these odd color-film-negative things.

once we dissolved into the negatives (which were cherry red), we were able to escape from the stormtroopers, who in my version were cannibals who ate my entire family at my grandma's house.

the ending involved tricycles, a love ballad and many parents and children. but it was "star wars," and i remember thinking "man, lucas has fucked it up again."

i blame the glass of McEwan's i had before bed last night.
