A couple quick notes about this post. First, AOC is the name of my high school, Academy of the Canyons Middle College High School. Second, some of the names have been changed to protect the true identities of people I know. Hugh and Deb are two who are not, as they're the focus of my dream, and thus very important. (Plus, I don't know them personally...)
Ok, now on to my magnificent dream! LOL
I had an even better experience last night in my sleep. First, I was at some sort of performance that was outside in a park. The Jackman family was there as both members of the audience and players onstage. I caught site of them running back and forth to the bathroom for costume changes. I noticed that Ava was running off, so I yelled to Deb, since she was done changing, and ran after then grabbed Ava, carrying her back over to her mother. Deb thanked me profusely, then asked if I was going to the party afterward.
I responded with an “Of course,” and continued on my way.
Soon after that, I went over to the party. It was at some kind of school campus, with several rooms set up just like an elementary school. Once we walked in, the hallway turned a 90 degree angle right. The first room was vacant. The second room was where we went in.
The party was already going, and lots of people were dancing and playing games, including one of the few chaperones, Hugh. He and Deb had someone else watching the kids, so now they were enjoying themselves. Hugh was playing some weird games with the guys in the room, and Deb was sitting in a chair by the door, looking very relaxed and comfortable. The other chaperones were milling about, and they included the entire staff from AOC.
I went over to the door, and asked Deb if I could ask her a question. She said it was fine, so I asked her about if it was possible for me to get a copy of “Corelli” on DVD as a Region 1 set. She grabbed my hand, and pulled me into the room to our right, which was where personal objects belonging to the chaperones was. She then went to her purse, grabbed a phone, and dialed it, telling whoever was on the line that she needed a copy of her show “Corelli” on DVD for a Region 1 player. She followed up with a hand over the phone and asked if I wanted any other DVDs.
Being grateful, I said no. She smiled at me, then went back to talking on the phone for a few minutes, then hung up. We started to chat, and I asked her if she had an iPhone. She told me yes, but that she was still figuring it out, so it wasn’t with her there.
We walked back into the party, and as we did, she asked for my phone number with area code. I gave it to her. Deb smiled again, and thanked me, then asked if I would ever be willing to travel with her and Hugh and their kids, kind of as a nanny. She assured me that I would be well paid, and she’d almost always be there too.
I thanked her and accepted the job.
By this point, we were back in the party room, and sitting in chairs next to each other. Deb told me that while she was enjoying our chat, I was young and should go enjoy myself and play some games or dance. I listened, and went towards the dance floor, letting the music that was playing fill my blood and started to move.
I danced for a while, not really caring that I was the center of attention until I noticed that Hugh was kind of stalking towards me. The song I had been dancing to ended, so I stopped to take a breath and let my heartbeat slow down.
Hugh stopped when he was right in front of me, and a tango started to play, rather like the ones from the Addams Family movie, dark and very sensuous. He held out his hand to me, and I grabbed it as he twirled me into his body.
From then on, the dance went very quickly, and we were smiling and laughing the whole time. Deb came over again, and told us that we were wonderful dancers.
The she grabbed my hand again, and we walked out of the room and into the hallway, where we followed the turn, and continued on until we reached the main office, where the office ladies of AOC sat chatting and laughing. Mrs. Newman had some kind of a dog there with her on a leash, though it was not a black lab. Deb smiled at her and told that I’d been asking about an iPhone. Then she left to go back to the party and chaperone again.
Mrs. Newman handed me her iPhone and told me to be careful with it. I thanked her and then l gathered my things and went outside.
From there, I got bullied by 3 girls, though I can only place 2 of them. The first was Jennifer Burder* and the second was Angela Romea*. They chased me around, trying to get the iPhone. Just after they had gotten it, a guy came and grabbed it from them, then gave it back to me.
I figured that there was no point in trying to use it anymore, so I picked it up, grabbed my stuff, then went back to the office, and returned it to Mrs. Newman. She told me to go to the first room, the one that I had passed before, and go in. Prince would be giving a fee concert.
I did so, and sure enough, there was a concert. Somehow, in the middle of the first song, Alanis Morissette stands up from the crowd, and starts singing “Ironic.” She also started passing out pies and such, then spoke to me and my friends surrounding me.
Soon after that, I left the concert and went back to the other room. Even though I begged for an autograph from Hugh, he denied me, saying that I would soon be his employee, so I didn’t need it.
All in all, it was a fun, interesting dream.

Darren Hayes' Roxy Concert (June 22, 2007)
I just got home from the concert!! It was soooo incredible!!! It started late, around 8:30 pm, instead of 8:15, so it wasn't so bad, I guess. First was the opener who was only known as Julien, who sang only 3 songs, then retired for the night. The second opener was this band from England, called Temposhark. I really liked the way they sounded, and they did a great cover or two, along with some incredible songs of their own. I ended up purchasing their debut CD for $10, and getting it signed by two of the band's members. I also got a hug from the lead singer, Rob, and a hug and kiss from the other member who signed the CD, Luke. It was awesome, and I look forward to more stuff from them.
Finally, there was about a 20 minute break between them and Darren, but it was totally worth it. Darren played the audience incredibly, and we (the audience) responded very enthusiastically. He sang a couple of old Savage Garden songs (Violet, I Don't Know You Anymore, & I Want You), then did one from Spin (Insatiable), did a couple from The Tension and The Spark (I Like the Way, Pop!ular, Unlovable, & Void), and also performed some new stuff, including: A Fear of Falling Under, Step Into the Light, Who Would Have Thought, How to Build A Time Machine, On the Verge of Something Wonderful, and a couple more I can't remember. Darren also covered Prince's Baby I'm A Star.
How incredible... The only thing that could have made it better would have been if we weren't kicked out immediately, and if he'd come out to sign autographs. Oh well. *shrug* I'll take what I can get, until the album comes out at least.

Something that amused me...

I Dream Of... HUGH JACKMAN?!?!?!?!?!
Last night, I dreamed of Hugh Jackman again. In this dream, we were all sitting near each other on a plane in the business seats. It was me and mom, and him, his wife, and his two children. Hugh was the row behind us, and he has Oscar on his right and Ava on his left, and beyond that, no one else. The plane was pretty empty. Mom and I were the row in front of him, and I was sitting in front of Oscar. Hugh’s wife, Deborra-Lee Furness, was sitting directly to my left, and in front of him. We started chatting, and she was nice, but very detached.
Later during the flight, my bra got trashed because it was too small, and had ripped by getting caught on the back of the seat over the top of the tank top I was wearing. Deborra-Lee told Hugh to give me his jacket, and he tossed a nice, warm, sweet-smelling leather jacket over me. I then used the jacket to cover myself, turned my head over the seat, and thanked him.
With that little conversation started, we spent the rest of the plane ride talking, except when I went to the bathroom to put a bra top on (that had been stowed away in my carry-on luggage). When I got back from that little chore, Oscar had decided that he wanted to hang with his mom, and Ava was asleep beside Hugh. Hugh then whispered to me that I should sit next to him so that we didn’t have to talk so loudly and wake Ava up.
I, of course, very happily sat down next to him, and we continued to talk. At one point, he told me that he admired my work. He also told me that my last two novels were very well written, and that he hoped that they would be turned into films soon. He even offered to set me up with a meeting with some potential directors, and the companies behind them, so long as he was able to be a producer/actor in the film versions.
Of course, I accepted happily, and told him that some of the characters had pieces of him in them, and that I wanted him to play the main character, if the films were ever made.
Hugh looked at me and laughed. “Those books are considered two of the greatest American novels ever! I’m sure if you checked your phone, then you’d have tons of missed calls!”
At that point, the flight had ended, so I thought that the conversation was over, but it turned out that all of us had to switch planes to get where we were going. (I still have no clue what our destination was supposed to be.)
On this other plane, my mother and I were in busincess class again, but the Jackman family occupied the 1st class seats. Since they were the only ones in first class, they told the stewardesses that they wanted me and mom to go sit with them.
The flight staff agreed, and this time, the rows were:
empty seats (Open Aisle) empty seats
Hugh Me (Open Aisle) Oscar Deborra-Lee
empty seats (Open Aisle) Mom Ava
empty seats (Open Aisle) empty seats
We all continued chatting until we reached our destination, and then I woke up.
This is the best dream I’ve had in a long time.
