sleeping dreams
Apr. 27th, 2018 07:37 amI dreamed: that I'd finally managed to buy one of my dream cars, a GT6.
This is a Spitfire with a hard top and a significantly bigger engine, and I think they're beautiful.
So of course when I got it there was something wrong with it, in this case with one of the front wheels, so I fixed that, and I was all "I'm going to take it for a test drive to make sure my fix worked" and![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
threemeninaboat is all "Dinner is going to be ready in FIVE MINUTES. FIVE." I'm all "just around the block. I'll be right back." So I drive halfway around the block and the front tire goes flat or falls off I don't even know, and I can't turn left, so I decide I'll just drive on the dead tire to get home quickly and turn right, to go the long way around the block, and instead I'm suddenly in downtown Denver, and there are all these people milling about and running, and I see a couple of people on the ground bleeding and two guys waving pistols around.
So I run over them.
And the GT6 gets stuck on top of them because it has about enough ground clearance to straddle an apple, so now the car is stuck on them and they're going to die, so I have to get out and push the car off them.
And the door handle breaks, because I hadn't gotten around to replacing the delicate plastic door handle cams with handmade metal ones like I did in the Spitfire, when its door handle cams broke and leftsparklyjules stranded inside the car, and because it's a hard top I can't just step out over the door but have to wriggle out through the window, and now I'm TOTALLY GOING TO MISS DINNER, and plus I'm increasingly worried that the two guys were libertarians with guns who were trying to shoot the person who actually shot the people on the ground so if I get out I might have to deal with that, too.
