I wonder if this is the night for weird wedding dreams/nightmares. So, stupidly long, the CN is that I had a seriously fubar forced into a wedding game show dream. My question is at the bottom. But the dream makes for some point-n-laugh entertainment.
I woke up from my first wedding related dream this morning and it was a doozy. It was only a week before the wedding and in my dream, I woke up to find myself and my dress had been kidnapped by a television company. Myself and four other ladies were told that we were being given a week off before the wedding, that we would be diving and relaxing together, and at the end of the week, we'd each be married in front of a crowd and the television cameras.
I guess I decided to go along with it, because I spent a bunch of time with the women diving. But it wasn't in the ocean, it was in a huge effing tank of some kind. It was 700-800 ft deep and there was a whale cruising around sometimes. The fellow who was our guide was an asshat to me, but nice to everyone else. He egged on this one woman who was a horrible, horrible person. At first, everyone else just seemed to ignore it when 'she was mean to me', but since it was a dream, I let her have it every chance I got (very cathartic in dreams, btw), and by the end of the week, the other ladies and I were friends.
Then we were yanked out of bed one morning and told that we'd be getting married in 5 minutes and to pull our dresses on and start running to the set. I managed to get my dress on, but because I'm an idiot, somehow I managed to pull some kind of black girdle thingy over my skirt. I did notice that my little bolero jacket was black, but decided it was no big deal. So, we ran.
When we got to this crazy big amphitheater, the girl ahead of me was grabbed and shoved onstage to walk down the isle. I was pulled up backstage to be next and I got the stagemanager to understand that I needed help pulling the girdle off the skirt and up underneath my dress. He helped, but indicated that we only had about 30 seconds to do it. We managed it and the skirt of my dress finally flowed out beautifully around me. I realized that the skirt was to much prettier than my real skirt... and then I realized it was black.
I was wearing a black jacket and a black dress, I was crying and they were shoving me out on stage. I looked up and saw FI was waiting to escort me down the aisle (huh?) and that I had on a crapload of rings. I was walking and trying to pull rings off so that FI would have someplace to put my wedding band. And... that's when I realized that the aisle was a freaking obstacle course, a la extreme japanese TV. Making a long crazy story a little bit shorter, we won, largely due to the fact that I didn't care about ruining the dress.
As FI put a ring on my finger and I noticed that it was some weird costume jewelry and not the ring he had made for me, the announcer was doing his 'tell them what they've won, Bob' thing. We won a $600,000 golf course. Huh?
So afterwards, FI and I went down to were the other couples were sitting. It was a grassy hill with a big dam and reservoir behind us and a huge cliff with power lines going down and away from the damn. We were talking about having a gtg later in the states and the TV guy came and said that they we all had to get ready for a big after-show in a few minutes (we're still covered with goop and crap) and we had to be ready because the government of the country we were in was going to be there. FI looked out, pointed at the cliff and said, "Only if there is a zip line ready, in case it gets out of control."
A few minutes later, we were talking about having to sell the golf course because we didn't know how to run it and it would just lose value. Suddenly, all these helicopters show up, military guys in black drop down on ropes, and someone asked them what they were doing. They were installing zip lines for FI. I looked up and saw the water surge in the reservoir and grabbed FI by the arm. I asked him if he saw it, and while we were looking it did it again. The other side of the shore just slammed shut and all the water from the reservoir came rushing over towards us. FI grabbed me and the zip line, and we zipped to freedom, as I woke up.
WTF????
Did you ladies go through crazy dreams like this? Please tell me the dreams stop.
