Fun dream!


I had the funniest dream last night, and I loved it! First of all, it must be said that I love Prince. (And yes, he goes by that again...)Call it a guilty pleasure, but I love him, and if I'm down I can pop in some Prince and dance around and cheer right up. (Don't knock it till you've tried it, all you 'hata's out there!)
So I am on the activities committee in my church (In real-life and in my dream)and apparently we're having a big activity and I'm in charge of the entertainment. Also apparent, is that Prince and I are friends.(in the dream, unfortunately not in real-life) We're not bosom buddies, but more than casual acquaintances...So naturally I think of calling him to see if he'll perform for our church activity. He was a real champ- he came and even helped set up chairs. (He's a real stand-up guy, I'll tell ya)Unfortunately I didn't get to really enjoy the show because I was hustling around making sure everything was taken care of. I felt so cool walking around talking to Prince like old buds, and everyone was looking at us and whispering. I was like, "Yeah, that's right- I'm friends with Prince!" SO afterwards he gives me the bill, cause even though we're friends he doesn't do this stuff for charity, ya know? The only problem is, the bill is for $7,500, and our budget for the entire party was only $5000. (definitely a dream!) I was aghast. It never occurred to me to ask him how much it would be- I just totally forgot. To be fair, he did give me a professional discount of $300 since we're friends, and $7,500 really isn't that much to pay for a personal concert from a bona-fide rock star! Still, I was beside myself. The bishop was not going to be happy with this. I was afraid that I would have to pay for it, which is impossible. Then someone told me that the bishop would pay for it all, but would only send it to Prince in like, $40 payments a month. Then I was embarrassed because it's Prince, and we're friends... Alas, I never got to see how it was resolved because I woke up.
Isn't it weird how Prince supposedly became a born again Christian and alledgedly re-did some of his notoriously scandalous songs? Maybe that's why he was so willing to perform for us- helping out a fellow Christian and all. Maybe he could've knocked down the price a little more for a 'Christian' discount or something. Sheesh Prince.

Wow, that's quite a dream. Whenever I have vivid dreams like that I spend half the day analyzing them to interpret their meaning. I can see where the money aspects of the dream come in, but how does Prince fit? Mmmmm? Very funny.

I enjoy Prince's music, and have a karaoke cassette of me and my high school friends singing Raspberry Beret.

That was hilarious! I rarely have vivid dreams like that. What the heck did you eat last night?

You are too funny. I had a really weird dream last night as well, but nothing like this one! You are a Prince freak for sure now though...

I had no idea that you're a Prince fan! Call Patricia for an interpretation--she ought to have fun with this one.

I kinda like Prince too. Loved Purple Rain back in the day. Haven't listened to him for a long time, though. I didn't realize that was his even his name again... I'm a little bummed he wasn't willing to work with you on the cost -- it was for a good cause, after all!

LOL, Jessie, that's awesome.

Did you know he is seriously, REALLY short in real life? I wanna say 5' or so.

Robin said...

P.S. - Gotta love the internet. Found several sources that put him at 5'2". Still - really short for a guy.

You crack me up. I am sooo impressed that you could remember your dream and in such vivid detail. I wish I could, I try but it never comes to fuition. Prince...what a guy!

OH well...sounds like a fun dream...bummer about the cost! But you married a prince of a guy. (But can he sing??)

This was very funny! I have to say I liked this blog and hope you do more on your dreams! I rarely ever remember my dreams but my mom has funny ones quite often that we tease her about.
