i'll let you be in my dream if i can be in yours

i just remembered the ending to the baba dream that i had last night, so now, spurred by ted's dream blog, i can write out the whole thing:

i dreamt that we were at a baby store, probably babies r us, but it looked like the meijer that we used to go to in muncie. for some reason, there were about five aisles devoted to formula. whatevs.

anyway, i dreamt that we came upon this baba who was toddling around by himself. he looked exactly like my friend kate's baby, jasper. ted decided that we could just take him around with us since he was all alone. this was pretty fun and we had a great time with him until we got to the check-out lanes.

i started panicking, asking ted if he saw this kid's parents anywhere, or if we should page his parents. my point was that this was all well and good, but this little guy wasn't our baba, so we couldn't take him with us. plus, we had jordan on the way, so it would seem strange to trump jordan's big entrance with this kid that originally belonged to someone else.

this is the part i just remembered: ted said that it would be fine if we just left the babski in the store--that it (the store) and it (the babski) belonged together and they would take care of each other. that seemed like a pretty good explanation at the time, so we checked out (the woman in front of us looked like ranji and was buying fifty discounted tubs of chapstick) and left, feeling like we'd made the right decision.

i'm pretty sure this one isn't about the sopranos, but i'm not sure what it really is about. huh.
