fbhjr | Dreams with lightsabers

I dreamed I was in the attic of an old house with my lightsabers.
They were still the plastic bladed ones I got at Disney, not real ones.

I could hear people coming through the house to come and get me.
As they started coming up the stairs I could see they were holding kusarigamas.

I grabbed my lightsabers and leapt down the stairs at two of them on the stairway landing.
I hit them both over the head with the plastic blades and then stabbed at their bodies.

“Jesus Frank! It’s just a game,” one of them said. “You don’t have to hit me so hard!”
“Well, you’re still dead and can’t use that metal sickle on me,” I replied.

I turned down the stairs and could see several others waiting at the base of the stairs where there was a big room across from them.
I dove head first down the stairs, rolled through them and whacked several with my blades as I did so.
But, I must have hit them hard because I knocked the battery pack out of one of them as I rolled into the large room across the hall from the stairs.
I could see it lying in the hallway, but knew they’d hit me if I reached for it.

“It doesn’t count if you hit us without the batteries in it!” One of the ones in the hall shouted at me.

I took a throw from the couch and tried to throw it over the battery pack and pull it to me.
But, the sickle blade came down on it, pinning it in place.

“You’re helpless!” The speaker said, coming around the corner.
“You forgot I have the Asoka set that has two,” I said whacking them across the face.
Dream ends

At my office I make my own calendar in October I used some of the photos of us playing with my lightsabers at Tom’s two years ago:

I was in the office and looked at that yesterday.
And I thought “I should have brought them to Tom’s this year and played with them again.”
But, I did not.

So, I think that brought on the dream.

And, while I have been known to somersault down stairs and come up standing at the bottom, I was much younger then. Only in my early 40’s when such things were easier…
