Awakened by a nightmare that sucked....
Dec. 23rd, 2010 06:52 amMy experience of Circus Circus I think just came back to haunt me.
In my dream I was in a Las Vegas hotel that was "passed it's prime", checking in with friends. We were walking for what seemed to be forever thru well-worn red carpeted lobbies and corridors, passing many workmen doing repairs when we reached an "elevator", ala the Geico gecko commercial where the gecko gets sucked into the mailroom air tube. Jeremy was lifted from right in front of me by a blast of suction, and rose spontaneously thru an air tube protruding thru the ceiling to the floor above. I followed, only to be dropped 20 feet to the floor just as my head and shoulders were entering the tube, & the suction stopped. The suction started again as I fell cushioning my fall, so I landed with an embarrassing thump, instead of a fatal thud. Seconds after, a small south Asian child was snatched from the floor near me, by an air burst, a child that had been playing and not intending to go upstairs. He bounced off the tube and dazed, fell the floor where I caught him.
So bizarre!
