Dream Weaver

When you’re pregnant, you have all kinds of really weird dreams and you usually remember them, which is really fun for Sir Monkeypants because he gets to hear about them and laugh about them in the morning.

On the weekend I dreamed we were going through the drive-thru at the Tim Horton’s, with my friends Sarah and Sean in the back seat. We all called in our orders and Sarah ordered a small hot chocolate and Sean ordered a large hot chocolate. When we got to the pick-up window, however, Sarah and Sean both realised that they meant to say “chocolate milk” but just slipped up and said “hot chocolate” instead. I had correctly ordered a chocolate milk for myself, and I felt bad because I didn’t share mine with them and they just sat there giving me the evil eye and not drinking their sub-standard hot chocolates. So, Sarah and Sean, I’m really sorry about that.

The other day I dreamed and I were interviewing Puff Daddy in his penthouse. He took Sir Monkeypants out to buy a sweater-jacket that, Puff claimed, was just nice enough to be used for black tie events, while providing your own stamp of style. Meanwhile, I stayed behind and tried to set up an indoor pond/garden in the penthouse for a photo shoot, but the custom cushions I had made and hand-dyed kept getting wet and the colour was running. Just then, J. Lo showed up and we chatted a bit and I showed her photos of Captain Jelly Belly, and she said he was the cutest kid ever. So now I love J. Lo even more than before, and I’m determined to never, ever let Sir Monkeypants buy a sweater-jacket, because that thing was fugly (sorry Puff).

Sir Monkeypants had an even better dream on Sunday though. He dreamed he formed a posse to go search for someone who was kidnapped. His posse had a spaceship with wings that folded down. Just as they were getting ready to launch, someone came along and started to strap something to the wings, and Sir Monkeypants and his posse got all ready to beat the tar out of the offender as soon as finished. However, the dream ended happily as the mystery person turned out to be Han Solo, and he was only strapping light sabers to the wings to provide added anti-kidnapper-fighting-power. Coolio.
