Hugh Laurie, Craig Ferguson, and Tom Felton Invade My Slumber

I have vivid dreams almost every night.  Sometimes I have romantic (not usually sexual) dreams about celebrities.  I wake up completely in love with said celebrity, until I remember I'm in love with my husband.

Two nights I dreamed my sister lived on top of a hill in Winthrop.  Simon Helberg from The Big Bang Theory was there.  I told him I was lonely.  A few minutes later, Hugh Laurie shows up, and apparently we already know each other (maybe we're friends?) and he puts his arms around me and tells me he's going to escort me home to Arlington.  (I haven't lived in Arlington for 6 years) We start walking to the T station and he walks with his arm around me.  We finally find the T station and get on a train that will get us to Alewife Station.  We board the blue line train and he hides his head on my chest so no one will recognize him.  I hold him close and then...  The Cleaner wakes me up to sign his Timesheet.  Grrrrr....

I fall back asleep a few minutes later and Hugh and I are strolling through Lexington Center, hand in hand.  We come to a mall where apparently I am living in a shop.  My guinea pigs greet me inside but I am interrupted by the manager of the mall who informs me that I can't live there anymore,  Hugh and I begin to look online for a 3 bedroom condo in Boston, and I tell him we ought to get a grand piano for him to play on.  He disappears and when I go to follow him, a woman tells me that he's gone to the Zoo and doesn't want to see me anymore.  I run to the movie theater in this mall where they are playing a movie call The Zoo.  I find him inside and ask what I did wrong.  He tells me that I'm a gold-digger and that I want the piano for me,  I start crying, begging him to take me back.  I tell him the piano was for him not me.  He turns me away.

As I am leaving the movie theater a man grabs me and sticks a gun in my side.  He pulls me to the Amtrak station where he has to stop because of the metal detectors,  He instructs me to get on the train, turn left, and follow the blue stripe until it disappears.  He gets on the train one car ahead.  I get off near the corner of Boston Common where a police man asks me if I'm alright.  I know the kidnapper is close behind so I say I'm fine.  I walk into a forest as branches scratch my face.  Meanwhile the police are showing Hugh Laurie footage of me on the train.  I make it through the trees where I find a suburban neighborhood.  I head for the first house as the kidnapper comes up behind me,  He is taking selfies on the front lawn when the door opens and a police detective pulls me inside.  I find Hugh sitting in an armchair reading a newspaper.  He falls out of the chair when he sees me and starts sobbing, begging me to forgive him.  There is gunfire and both of us are shot.  As we lie in pools of our own blood I hear sirens,  Then I wake up.

Then last night I dreamed I was back in High School.  Craig Ferguson was my History Teacher, and he told me I would have to do 2 months worth of catchup work in order not to fail, since I had skipped his class for most of the year, even though it was my favorite,  I start walking home and I run into Emma Watson who is swimming in the water that has suddenly appeared,  I hand her my Millennium beach towel and keep going.  I round the corner and there is Tom Felton torturing some Kindergarten kids with a leaf blower.  I yell at him to put it down and he and his friends bolt.  The kids chase after him.  I go into a house and he follows me inside begging me to hide him.  I do and he asks me to hang out.

I'm not sure what prompts these dreams, but they are kind of fun.
