So, I had the most random dream last night. Barack Obama, Jennifer Aniston and I were all living together in a really crappy apartment. Barack was coming home from a stressful day transitioning to president, so I offered to make him some pasta (I think Jennifer was in the shower). He was upset because his daughter wanted the new Blackberry Storm, and even though he thought she was too young to get one, Blackberry had sent her a free one since he was going to be Prez. At this point I woke up having a coughing fit, so I guess I'll never know what happened. Did the pasta turn out? Did his daughter get to keep the Blackberry? Did Jen and I drink lots of martinis and drunk dial Brad and Angelina? Anyone else have any strange dreams about famous people? (I am still trying to forget the dream/nightmare I had involving Liza Minneli and David Hasselhoff....I should probably lay off the Ambien)

Sounds like a dream sampler of this week's BWW topics.

I like www.dreammoods.com. The dream dictionary has a lot to it.

When you dream about famous people, it usually means they reflect aspects of yourself. You might be feeling the pressure of a lot of people counting on you (Obama) and part of you wants to wash off the burdens of daily life (Aniston).

Food indicates a need for nourishment. Pasta might symbolize comfort food to you, or might be special to you for whatever reason. Updated On: 11/30/08 at 08:39 AM

I dreamed I was on a train. A bunch of random politicians were there and they all kept offering me bananas. But I didn't want a banana until Barack Obama offered me the biggest, prettiest, most delicious banana I'd ever seen. I reached for the banana and suddenly the train went into a tunnel. The we were falling and falling and then we were smoking cigars. I wonder what that dream meant.

I dreamt I was part of a terrorist group holding a load of people hostage. But I can't have been a very good terrorist, because when one of the others (an old friend from school o_O) wanted to kill this guy, I wouldn't let her, because he was really cute. We had quite the fight over it!

Hmmm... O_o

I am reminded of the line from Will and Grace:

Grace: I had a dream last night about Barack Obama - and he was Baracking my world!

I usually have dreams about Seth Rudetsky. The last one I had he was moving in.

Weird... I had a dream not long ago where my basement was on fire, and Michael Ball came over and started eating all of our leftover spaghetti and playing piano and talking about a Les Miserables crackfic that he was writing. And in my dream, I was torn between being like, "DUDE, Michael Ball's in my house!" and "Dude, my basement is on fire, and we need to get out!"

What is it with celebrities eating pasta in dreams?

Incidentally, I eat grapefruit-flavored vitamin c drops before bed...

I had a dream a few nights ago that I was a newly elected Senator, but I kept wondering around D.C. trying to figure out if I was a Democrat or a Republican.

I once had a dream that Michael Crawford was chasing me through the halls of my HS with a grand piano hoisted over his head.

I keep thinking of that one time when my mom said to my brother, "Who left the message on the answering machine?" And my brother shrugs and says in a bored, irritated voice, "Oh, Barack Obama again." Makes perfect sense, but it just sounds so bizarre taken out of context.

I must say, when I saw Obama on CNN yesterday, I felt we had a real connection. After all that dream-pasta we shared.
