Attention Pinko Punko... celeb dream sighting

Frankly, I think Billy Pilgrim's "Mike Rowe Lust" dream has been up long enough... my sleeping brain must have sensed that because last night, I was visited by none other than Tom Cruise! Yes, crazy, whacky, Tom-Tom Cruise.

The best I can recall, it went down something like this: I was driving to Tom's via the interstate with my family and Martin Bashir. I was driving, but was on the right side of the vehicle. I was also lying on my stomach, facing forward and holding onto the wheel. The best I can describe it was it was as if I were on a sled. The brakes and accelerator were back by my feet and I'm not exactly sure how they worked, but I was doing my best. On top of that, the view I had of the highway was from about 10 feet up. I could see every twist and turn and saw that numerous spots along the way turned into rapids. Yes, this highway jaunt included white water.

Somehow we made it to Tom's house. I was surprised by how unassuming it was. It was a small frame house with a garage that had been converted to a sun room. This is where we met with Tom. He would not speak, but made it clear that we should not go inside. He seemed scared.

My children went off to play with something. Grizzled took a seat and Martin started asking questions. I don't remember what he asked, but Tom wasn't answering. Every once in awhile he would nervously point at some object in the room. This object would then start spinning and would fly around, spending a little bit of time hovering in everybody's face. I couldn't tell if Tom was controlling the objects of if he just knew when one of them was going to take off. Again, he seemed scared.

While I was amazed at the flying objects, I was bored with Martin's questions so I went to the back of the room to check out the shelves. They looked as if they were used for storage more than for display. What I found were a bunch of Tom and Nicole's old wedding presents. I was kind of surprised at what some of them were. One box contained a set of Tom and Nicole elf ornaments. They looked like the elves from Rudolf, but with Tom and Nicole heads. They looked as if they had been used. I tried to picture what the Cruise/Kidman tree must have looked like.  Next there was a box containing those stress dolls that you're supposed to squeeze and the heads get really big. These also had the head of Tom and Nicole... There was also a framed copy of their wedding invitation that someone had done up with paper flowers. None of these things looked like items I would expect Tom Cruise to have gotten for his wedding let alone keep, but then I didn't picture him living in a  modest frame house with a modified garage.

I decided to go back to the discussion, or rather, the questioning. Tom still wasn't talking, just pointing at levitating things. I noticed my dog was there. He was barking violently at Tom. Tom pointed at him and my dog started to hover and spin. It was at this point that I decided we needed to go.

We got back into the car, I was once again driving... same position, same highway, same rapids. We decided to stop at a Hallmark store. When we went in, but it was like a penny arcade. You had to put your money into one of the many machines and hope that what you wanted would come out. There was a book my youngest lamblet wanted so I put in numerous coins. They kept getting jammed so I'd take them out and put them back in. I finally got them loaded, pulled the lever for the book, but 6 stuffed animals came out instead.  I didn't feel like I had paid enough for the animals so I put two 50 cent pieces on the ledge and we left.

I then woke up to my dog jumping onto my bed. He, thank God, was not hovering.

This was supposed to be our secret.

[Jennifer]

LOL!

Sorry Stress Doll...

[Mandos]

Tom has completely eliminated the reactive mind and has achieved OT IX or greater, hence he can control matter and spin it with his finger.

[blue girl]

LOL at this dream. Jennifer I really don't even know what you look like but can't stop picturing you sledding the whitewater on your stomach. Zoom! Zoom!

I think Mr. Cruise takes up too much space in our subconscious. I've posted about a dream of him, you did and my best friend told me a dream she had about him awhile ago that was hysterical.

[Jennifer]

BG- Don't forget sledding the white water in a CAR! I prefer my dream from the other night where I was the conductor on the El and James Earl Jones was doing the voice overs of my dream.

Mandos- I think you're right. I'm surprised I didn't start spinning and levitating by the mere fact I was dreaming about him.

[billy pilgrim]

Mike Rowe could kick Tom Cruise's crazy little ass.

Plus, I had Buffalo Tom.

[Jennifer]

BP- I'd take a dream involving Mike Rowe over Tom any day. It's just, he wasn't in my dream... he was in yours and frankly, I was getting a little jealous seeing that in 3B's line-up!

[Snag]

Whatever you had for dinner last night? You might consider removing it from your diet.

[Jennifer]

It wouldn't matter, Snag. That's just how my dreams roll.

[Kathleen]

first one who now dreams of Tom and Nicole Elf ornaments wins!!

or in this case, loses.

[Jennifer]

I want those ornaments now! I can still see them!

[mdhatter]

could they be constructed from snack foods?

[Jennifer]

Maybe from Circus Peanuts...

[Dan Leo]

Jennifer, you must stop reading People magazine in the supermarket check-out line!

[Mary Jane]

The imagery is totally awesome!! And your sense of humor certainly shines through... I wonder if the Coen Brothers started out this way.

[Jennifer]

Dan- I've been busted!

MJ- thanks for the high praise! I'm guessing the Coen Bros started a tad younger than me, but I'll take the compliment just the same.

[fish]

Was Michael Jackson and Tito with Martin B.?

[Jennifer]

I do recall a man with a partial nose and a surgical mask. He was carrying a large sport fish, was walking next to a dictator, was speaking of a first lady... I'm not sure if any of this is germane...

[fish]

APPLAUSE!!!

[Brando]

This makes much more sense than Vanilla Sky.

[Jennifer]

LOL.

Cameron should have purchased the rights to my dreams instead.
