Dreams Are Weird

There’s absolutely no significance to this post other than for my own personal recollection but I thought that I would share it anyway because it’s really not that often that I remember my dreams so vividly.


Seriously. I just had a weird dream and I’m trying my hardest not to forget it. The setting was a volunteer site and I was signing in/registering for the event. After a series of typical questions, the interview took an odd turn when the guy began to ask me the most random of questions. The question that stood out in my mind went along the lines of. “OMG! Those Glee guys are going gaga over the Star Spangled Banner! Name 2 characteristics of that fabulous song.” I had absolutely NO idea what that meant but for some reason I was surrounded by a ton of people who were trying to coach me the answer.

Apparently the answer was somewhere in the song so they all tried to jog my memory. First off, the interviewer was mumbling so it took me forever to understand that they were talking about the Star Spangled Banner in the first place. They would awkwardly mumble the tune while inserting random lyrics as if it was obvious to everyone but me. Then they gave me the hint that one of the answers was the word “brave”. So I stood there and thought for what it seemed like 20 minutes. And then it suddenly popped into my head! The tune/words of the song! So there I was awkwardly singing the Star Spangled Banner in front of random strangers. And then I woke up. And now I have that song stuck in my head.

Weird, huh. But the silliest part is that the tune turned out to be for the song (You’re A) Grand Ol’ Flag. Yeah. I know, right? And the answers were “brave” and a lyrics that’s not even a part of that song.



OK. Dreams are weird.
