Party
I had a strange dream last night. I was looking out a window and I saw a crowd suddenly gather along the street. I went out to see what was going on. Several celebrities were visiting, arriving by boat. I found myself standing nearby, near a large body of water. The celebs disembarked. A man whose name I knew in the dream, but has since escaped me walked up to me and said hi. Strangely, I think this man, in reality, passed away in the last year or so. He motioned me over to a wetbar and offered to buy me a drink. I asked for water, but got something else, ice tea I think. The bartender put both the man's & my drinks on a cocktail tray. My drink was in a beer mug. The man took his, I was reaching for mine, but the bartender moved the tray & my drink ended up falling to the floor. I apologized profusely. The man just smiled & ordered another. The bartender put that on a tray as well, but he held it still while I took it. We then turned away and we were suddenly in a very large room with lots of table & chairs at which lots of people were sitting. We found an empty table & sat down. We talked for a while and sipped our drinks. Mine tasted odd, but I said nothing. After a while the man excused himself & said he had to go mingle with the rest of the guests. I got up shortly thereafter, but some women came up to me & started talking to me. One of them asked if I was going to another function where they had been invited. She then started showing me pictures. The other women told me I could not go b/c they did not want me there. I told them I did not care b/c I had to stay to help clean up anyway. That wasn't true, but I knew of only 1 person who had volunteered to clean up & I thought it would only be appropriate for me to help. I started clearing glasses & mugs off tables as people got up and left. A couple times I thought people were vacating a table & I began clearing it when they would sit back down again. So I would leave the glasses and move on to another table. The one woman who had volunteered came up to me & thanked me for helping her as she did not know how else she was going to get it all cleared away.
Then I woke up.
