Crazy Dream

So say you had a crazy dream. You know the kind where you wake up a bit freaked out only to go back to sleep and continue the same dream almost from the place you left off....there is no spicey food, alcohol or recreational drug use involved.

I need a translation.

In my dream I came up on this carnival-like ride involving an airplane. I was going to be sort of the ride control person like the crazy one-eyed guy who makes the Himalaya ride go super fast so he can see you puke....I also neglected to mention that this airplane was not "ride-sized" but a full sized 747. I was given a list of details to execute the task of getting the plane to move back in forth in a slingshot type fashion at a 45 degree angle. I was not given all the details and was told to wait for the remainder of the information before commencing my job as Plane Captain. I sat and analyzed the ride for what seemed like a long spell and decided I could master it without any further instruction. So being cautious I asked the line of people queuing to board the plane to wait while I gave the first shot on an empty plane. I pulled this gigantic lever and the plane moved a few feet, similar to those kiddie rides outside supermarkets (the horse barely rocking). They booed me, so my husband who was looking on to this whole process yelled from the platform high above me "I think you need to crank it out a few notches to build momentum." I followed what proved to be his foolhardy advice, cranked the plane, pulled the lever and shot the full sized billion dollar plane off the ride chasis where it careened down into spikey Redwood Forest below finishing with a firey plume. I looked up and ridegoers were runing screaming and my husband said "You are completely F*cked" before he turned and fled.

I am dumfounded on this one....any ideas??

Look who's back! I check in every now and again and today you'd blogged!

I have no idea what to make of the dream, but I must say that you were very dream-intelligent to try it first without passengers!
