I’ve had a disturbing number of Moulin Rouge-related dreams lately. Would you like to hear about them? What? Of course you do! Sorry, I can’t remember the dates.
- The next musical at Jesuit was Moulin Rouge. As this is *my* dream, I played Satine. Ewan McGreggor was Christian. Colin Walsh was Ziddler. This was disturbing. Of course, during rehearsals the next day, I kept envisioning Colin singing “Spectacular, Spectacular” with a silly red mustache and odd eyebrows. I snickered slightly whenever I looked at him.
- All these people were trying to kill me for some reason. I was fleeing for my life, yet somehow I knew what to do. When some guy took a shot at me with these microbullet things, I fell to the ground and played dead, as if he had gotten me. He walked off and I assaulted him from behind. I ran some more, and I eventually ended up in the Upper School hall at my school. I ran into Chungy almost immediately, and we hugged. As we hugged, we sang “Come What May”. As we sang, a girl from my grade named Anita Carleo came down the hall, looked at us oddly, and walked on. I am unsure of what this means.
- One of my more orange-juice-through-the-nose amusing dreams, a recreation of “Come What May” using Carrot and Angua from Terry Pratchett’s “Discworld” series. This was most likely triggered by my “musical number” drawing, as I listened to a lot of Moulin Rouge while coloring it. I specifically remember this scene. Except instead of a bathrobe, Angua had the sheet from a certain scene in “Men at Arms”. ::snickers:: Poor Angua… XD Later that day, in History class, I envisioned an equivalent version of “Your Song” and nearly burst out laughing in the middle of Mrs. Johnson’s lecture on the Boston Massacre. We’re talking seriously amusing mental images here.
I’m sure there were others, but these are all I can remember at the moment. Now go on, go about your business.
