Last night's dream (from which I was woken up by my alarm) (note I'm writing this at about 6:30am so it's still fresh):
I was in a toy store with my sister, which is very odd because she's 21 and wouldn't be caught dead in a toy store. She wanders off and I find myself in the Barbie/doll section, and what catches my eye? There's a new line of Disney Princess action figures that feature each woman in period fantasy armor! Being very excited about this prospect, I begin to investigate and, while little kids continue to run screaming around me like banshees, I sort my way through a Pocahontas (who is wearing the same kind of armor that John Smith wore, only more feminine) and Esmerelda (who I know isn't a Disney Princess, but her armor was totally awesome in that old French style).
Then I came across an unmarked box which contained the Belle version of the fantasy armor set, and I had to open it to see what it was, and apparently it was some sort of dark fantasy armor that had her dressed up in some sort of black and green feathered leather armor with a headdress... (no, I don't know where it came from. it was just a dream after all). The doll had one of those "collect them all!" pamphlets inside that showed all the other girls in their fantasy armor, either sets historically based on their time periods (like Pocahontas, Esmerelda, Aurora in some sort of full plate knights armor) or on some fantasy element (like Alice dressed in an "armor version" of her own dress). It also explained that each doll was fully articulated and could do crazy poses like an Obitsu. But by the time I had decided to bring the unmarked box up to the cashier and ask for a discount for any damages and then to go back for the other dolls, I couldn't find them! This was even though I had simply moved down the aisle. I assumed those little banshee kids had run off with them.
And then my alarm woke me up, and I was very disappointed.
Has anyone else ever had a "dollieh dream"?
