My dream had John Kerry in it last night. My first dream with a political figure.
And get this-- in my dream he was having a very angsty but delicate but funny slashy thing going on with this other dream character who looked like a weird combination between John Edwards and my neighbor. You know... tender/friendshippy/snarky slash, the way a lot of people write Spander.
They did it (offscreen in my dream, THANK GOD) while we (including me, my parents, and some other dream-people) were all on a journey, on foot, walking through some place with a lot of corn. And low trees. Mostly corn. Really tall corn.
And we were all in jeans and wrap-around white sheets. Like home-made togas. And John Kerry and Edwards/MyNeighbor wore olive wreaths on their heads.
And the weird part is, John Kerry and Edwards/MyNeighbor weren't even in love, or homosexual. It was this bizare trust/friendshippy thing that they needed to get out of their system, and also John Kerry sort of flaunting himself to sting the feelings of this woman in our group, a dream-made person, as if to say to her "I could be going to go have tender shagging in the corn with you, but because you're not fighting for me I'm going to go have tender shagging in the corn with him instead because he's my best friend and we need to do this because we're two close male friends."
It was like reading overly-sappy slash fic. With John Kerry's really long face.
Specifically, the kind of slash fic where the characters are in no way homosexual, and they know this, but they're best friends the writer makes them go have sex in the corn anyway because best friends are so easy to slash even when they are just friends, so instead of it being normal sex like normal people have it's Angsty Friendship Sex That I Can Only Have With Another Non-Homosexual Man.
And since, again, the sex was offscreen in the corn, THANK GOD, I inferred all this stuff by their body language during the journey's group meals (we all sat down in the middle of the path in the middle of the corn) and by how obviously they went into the corn together that one day. With everybody watching them go.
Yeah... that was a weird dream.

Yeah... that was a weird dream.
I think it was a combination of:
- the Olympics
- my issues with people writing slash fic with characters I don't think would ever sleep together even if they were gay
- John Kerry attack-ads by the GOP
- all the touring the candidates are doing in the cornfield-ish states
- my anticipation/fear of moving out
- all the caffeine I drank last night while watching the Daily Show
