And Speaking of Weird Father Dreams...

Oh, this is a good one. I dreamt George Costanza's father (Jerry Stiller) was my father! It was my birthday, and I even had a sister who gave me a piece of jewelry. I can't remember what it was, but it had interesting and pretty colors. Then Frank (name works for George's father and for mine as well) comes over and drops this wallet-shaped thing on my lap and says "happy birthday." I open it up and it's just a list of bank accounts, but I don't know what to do with it. Supposedly it's a list of his bank accounts. I think Stan was there, and I was telling him that it would've been a nice present if it was presented in a better way, and give information along with the bank accounts as to what to do with them when Frank's demise does happen. Like this, I'm really left in the dark.

As in the words of Elaine Benes, "Oh no, I'm becoming George."

I still say if I had to cast for my own dad, I'd either get Chevy Chase (I don't know what it is about the recent pics of Chase, but there is a resemblance...wouldn't know it from his old '75 incarnation on SNL) if it was a comedy, or if it was a more sinitster movie of my life I'd get Christopher Walken. Walken has this sotto voce thing that would work very well.

Anyway, I had yet another dream as well after this one. Stan and I were in some building...I can't even explain it because I have no idea where it was or what we were doing. There were a lot of people there and Stan was hugging two women. They were both a bit overweight (more in the Paula vein as opposed to me), one had brunette hair and one had grey hair...they looked like mother and daughter, about 50 and 75 years old respectively.. I had no idea who these women were or why he was hugging them. We were walking out of the building, and he was ahead of me, and as we continued walking he kept getting further ahead of me so that I couldn't ask him anything. As I leave the building he's practically to our car which is parked across the street and he's getting in it. I'm wondering if he's forgotten about me, and before he actually leaves, I wake up shouting, breathing loudly and kicking.

OK, maybe "a bit overweight" "in the Paula vein" is a bit of an oxymoron.

They were fat.

The Frank dream is very interesting because the actor who plays Frank doesn't look like Frank your father. Then some sort of sinister Chase might work, but your dream didn't use that kind of imege?

I'm sorry I didn't introduce you to the 2 women.

Well, who were they?

The odd thing was that dreamFrank was acting similar to the way your adoptedDad acted...tossing the gift on your lap instead of handing it to you.

Must be a dad thing.
