The dream of a deranged teen!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So I had this dream some years back, right around the release of the third Lord of the Rings movie. In this dream I was an extra who managed to befriend the entire main cast (I know, dream on, right?).
So, anyway, after filming wrapped, the main group decided to take a road trip (in the U.S. for some reason) and invited me to come along (at least until we hit my place). So there we were, having many zany adventures, where everyone was in love with me (this is a dream, deal with the nonsense :-P), and I had to teach Sean Bean how to swim (don’t ask me why). But that wasn’t the strangest part, if you’ll believe it, no the best is yet to come!
To me, the thing that was weirdest about this dream wasn’t the whole consorting with star thing, oh no, not by a long shot. The strangest thing was how my brain translated the term “backseat driver”. I took it literally, as in the steering wheel was actually located in the back of the driver’s seat, so the person immediately behind them steered the vehicle (but the driver controlled the acceleration and braking, for some reason).
So, there you have it…one of my most memorable dreams.
