WKRP

Ok, here is a strange one. I read a post on FB last night that Jennifer Robin wrote wherein she mentioned having a dream with Loni Anderson and aliens. then I dreamed I was in a re-enactment of WKRP in Cinncinnatti last night! and guess which actress I embodied? that's right- Loni anderson! I even had to google it this morning because my memory for pop culture personas is like zilch, but sure enough, my subconscious mind remembered- ahh wasted youth...I am not making this stuff up!
the feeling of embodying Loni Anderson in my dream- bleach blond hair, men jealous of my attentions and all, was not unlike her reference to people being possessed by aliens which at first made me wonder if Loni Anderson was perhaps an alien, but then I realized it is far more likely that I am. the dream also involved a very run down apartment full of odds and ends we were trying to organize and sell, reminiscent of wacky willies and some very strange plumbing arrangements...another odd thing about the dream was that even though I was aware that we were re-enacting WKRP, and i even got a sense of recognizing the episode as one I had seen before, (deja vu within the ream, not an actual episode that I can recall) I still didn't realize that I was dreaming in spite of how odd everything seemed. I spent many hours wtching tv hen I was young, but i eplore it now, and have very little memory of early years, but I do remember that I enjoyed that show and thought that the Howard Hesseman character was cool and cute, but in the dream he was jealous because I had slept with the Gordon Jump character whom I am not attracted to. there was no sex scene, so i think we just slept together.
