Sandra Bullock and me...
I had the weirdest dream last night. It was one of those dreams that when you wake up and then go back to sleep, it picks up where it left off. It was just so bizarre. I was apparently a makeup artist on a commercial starring Sandra Bullock. I never did quite figure out what it was for but it must've been for waterproof mascara, considering what happens. Anyway, the commercial had Sandra in a beautiful red evening gown and she's sort of this 'action hero' type (a bit like the animated chick on the Esurance commercials) running around saving people. At one point the script for the commercial calls for her to get dumped into the ocean where she confronts a "giant squid" in order to save a cute male model from certain doom. In between takes I'm supposed to fix her makeup so she always looks perfect even after she's been dunked.
After watching the filming for a while I realize that though the script calls for a giant squid, what's in the tank is really an octopus (and only a moderately large one at that!) so I start trying to tell people they have the wrong kind of cephalopod. Nobody wants to listen to me, but then I mention it to Sandra as I am fixing her makeup again. She gets all peeved that no one listened to me and drags me over to the producer to set him straight. He's like "Who cares? It lives in the ocean and has tentacles." I tell him that everyone on the Internet will make fun of his commercial. A bunch of people come over to confer, and they finally decide rather than trying to find a squid to swap with the octopus, they'd just change the script to read 'octopus.'
Not sure what that was all about.
