Ok, I'll point out I was watching that crazy cake TV show before we went to bed, where the cakes are more like sculptures than actual cake.
Ok, here goes:
First off, in my dream last night,
Morning Glory and I are together, as a couple, but settle down, we're just at the grocery store doing some shopping. I realize this has now turned into a nightmare for MG, and I apologize for that, but it is what it is.
Anyhoo, we're at the big supermarket, and I've gone off to grab some stuff on my own, and I've come back to find MG in mid-conversation with a very tall, broad-shouldered, virile man, and they're talking about...TV subscription packages!
To be clear, he's not a salesman, just another shopper who's someone struck up a conversation with MG, condescendingly explaining that she's paying too much for her TV programming, and what she needs to do is listen to him, because he's got it all figured out and knows what's best for her. He even called her "little lady." When I walked up, she was actually handing him a pen and slip of paper to write the information down!
At one point, I interrupted him and said, "That all sounds fine, but part of the problem is, that would require we get rid of our over-the-air antenna."
And then he went cuckoo.
"Well, why do you even have an OTA antennae?! All that gets you is a bunch of fake news from the lamestream media against our wonderful President Trump!"
I looked past his shoulder at MG and made a "he's crazy" face and we both slipped out of there.
Don't worry, I'm getting to the cake.
Later, we were pushing our trolley through the store, and MG said, "You know, he was talking to me, and all I heard was one thing."
"I know exactly what you heard," I teased, "You heard that it was cheaper!"
"You're right. I'm always trying to save money."
At that moment, we wheeled by the in-store bakery, and right there in the middle of it all were about a dozen bakers, furiously working on a giant cake of...the crazy TV guy, from the waist up, shirt off, muscular chest, arms like a great ape, gazing out magnificently over the whole of the store, like one of those big Egyptian pharaohs from ancient history. There were even bakers up on scaffolding putting ropes of black licorice in for chest hairs!
And that was that.
