Two Dreams

howeverbriefA few nights ago, I dreamed I was going to the pharmacy. Once inside, I realized the pharmacy was someone's house, and they had their family over watching Christmas movies. (In particular, they were watching "Griswold's 2", which I'm fairly sure isn't a real movie.) Among the pharmacist's relatives was Riley, Mike's niece, who told me I should watch the movie with them. I went in the back where the pill counter is, and they didn't have my prescription ready, so I ended up having to wait for it while they were baking Christmas cookies.
My subconscious is more into Christmas than I am this year.
The dream I had last night was a bit more disturbing. I dreamed I was watching a movie about a band who was failing. The band members tried all kinds of ways to call attention to their songs so they could raise money for charity to no avail. They remained obscure no matter what they did. Finally, the lead singer climbed onto a roof and threatened to kill himself. A crowd of people joined him on the roof, and as he started singing one of the band's songs, the crowd clapped and sang along because they knew all the words. As the song ended, the crowd began to head for the stairwell to go back to the street, and the singer jumped off the edge of the roof because he knew that's all his life amounted to. All I could see was his shirt disappearing downward as the crowd dispersed and the movie ended.
This is probably semi-inspired by this news story about a man killing himself when his girlfriend refused to quit shopping. It's been making me uncomfortable all week.
