Dreams about Muppets...

[Uncledeadly12]

I had a dream where I met Joel Grey and I had him sign my season 1 DVD box set of The Muppet Show, and then I took a picture with him, and then a couple of days later, my theater hosted a Muppet event and a lot of Muppet fans showed up, the event ended with everyone receiving random puppets (including me) and getting into a group singing Rainbow Connection (similar to the Just One Person performance at Jim Henson's memorial) but everyone was clumped together, and while I was performing, I noticed that David Rudman was performing beside me and I was speechless as I performed my puppet, at the end of the performance, I was telling the board members at my theater that I had a lovely time and I enjoyed it, and then Joel Grey came out and apparently he came to see the event as well. And then Richard Michael Gomez from Instagram took a picture of me. And then a couple of days later, Craig Shemin published a book to celebrate the release of Jim Henson: Idea Man, the book was also called Jim Henson: Idea Man, and as I was scrolling through the book, I saw never before seen behind the scenes photos from The Muppet Show, and also deleted scenes, and guess who was in the photos.... Uncle Deadly lol, I was screaming my butt off out of excitement in my dream.

I dreamed it was December and that I was at a Christmas party Richard Hunt was throwing. He gave me a shoebox full of wonderful gifts, including a perfume bottle, made of red glass, that hung from a gold chain and looked like a headless woman. For my face there was a bottle of sea buckthorn oil, which I had just run out of in waking life.

Had another dream about Fraggle Rock. I was feeling sad and hopeless about something and was telling Wembley about it. He listened silently, then held out his arms, and we hugged.

I had this dream years ago, so time may have fogged the memory.

There were these clones of Kermits, all with blond wigs and a fully black backdrop. The only reason they were visible was from this spotlight that was on them out of view. I distinctly just remember all of them dancing, and I believe lip-syncing to something, but I don't remember to what. It reminded me of some of those lip-syncing skits that used to happen a lot on Sam and Friends.

Last night, I dreamed that I met Frank Oz and that we were talking about the ways in which we had the same sense of humor.

Last night I dreamt me and my family got up real early in the morning so that I could do something relating to Richard Hunt, and this was not long before I had to go to work (and I start work way early in the morning). This was not a special occasion and not endorsed by Henson, Disney, Sesame Workshop, or the Hunt family, don't know why I needed to do this.

So we went somewhere, I asked somebody at the venue if I could use one of Richard Hunt's characters from Emmet Otter (don't know why I needed to ask to use a character from Emmet Otter but not Muppets, Sesame Street, Fraggle Rock, etc., especially since this was not a Henson-sponsored thing, just something I wanted to do) but the only character available to use was one of Jerry Nelson's characters.

Anyway, I feel like my Richard Hunt tribute thing was a drawing of his characters, but in the end, I just gave a speech on Richard Hunt. My family and a small assortment of others were there, but as I was giving my speech, they were all just having conversations and talking over me for the most part. With them seemingly not paying attention, I just did a quick runthrough - mentioned that Richard's first Muppet performance was in The Great Santa Claus Switch, who his characters were, and that he died of Aids. But as I gave the speech, I noticed Frank Oz in the audience. I wasn't expecting anybody fron Henson to be part of this and it wasn't advertised or anything.

Afterwards, there was seemingly a crowded reception. I noticed Eric Jacobson in the crowd, and then I saw somebody getting their picture taken with Eric and Frank. After that I asked if I could get a picture with them, then noticed the guy who took the picture.... Looked like Dave Goelz then he looked like Bill Barretta then he looked like neither. I asked him if he was Dave Goelz and he said he was, in a sarcastic tone. Thinking about it now, I think he looked like a much skinnier Mathew LeBlanc.

Had a dream where I was on the verge of panicking about something. Gobo, wearing one of his hats and holding his gourd guitar, looked up and said, “Easy... easy...” I wish that he’d been playing his guitar. A tune from him would have calmed me down.

Had another Fraggle Rock dream. In it, I rescued Boober’s hat from a room full of laser beams that fry you to a crisp if you let them touch you.

Had a rather odd but somewhat unrelated, but still related dream recently...

Dreamt that I was watching a Simpsons Treehouse of Horror episode involving an epidemic where everyone turned into bluebirds. I don't remember how or why it all started (I'm sure Homer had something to do with it), but I do remember that during the climax, they all switched to puppets, and it ended with a close-up shot of Mr. Burns, in his bird form with googly eyes, looking at the camera bellowing out in a Cookie Monster-like voice, "COOKIE!"

Yeah, a strange one indeed.

For whatever reason I often have a recurring dream where fraggle rock reruns come back to tv, not sure which channel, but the early episodes, like maybe episodes 1-6 have the original theme on them. The one that's seen on the DVD bonus feature and the one that clips or are seen on the muppets 30 year special. And in my dreams I always think it's really cool how they do that.
