I received some early New Year's cheer(?) in the form of a dream last night. Here are the high/low points:
High points
- Best Show episode fell on New Year's Eve.
Low points
- Tom asked me to cover the New Year's Eve show - he had somewhere to be.
- I agreed to cover the New Year's Eve show.
- The studio was in a laundry closet next to an underground pub.
- There were no records in the studio.
- I wasn't familiar with any of the equipment in the studio, but failed to tell this to Tom.
- I couldn't find any of the Duran Duran records I wanted to play.
Aside
- The record player in the studio had a needle that rose from below to meet the records' surfaces. I noted this was a terrible design choice.
All in all, this was a horrifying dream. Not a nightmare. More like one of those dreams where you realize you're late for a first day of work.
