Marrying A Friend and A Celebrity
Last night, I dreamed that my friend from high school, Stephanie, was gay, even though she's in a long-term, committed relationship with the father of her son. We were in a large room together and she told me she wanted to marry a woman, who was also an ordained minister. The conundrum was, her girlfriend couldn't marry them herself, because obviously that wouldn't be legal. So they asked me to do it, even though I am not ordained. I had been laying on blankets in this large room, which had bamboo and plants and other people around, though no one I knew.
Stephanie brought her girlfriend out to meet me...and it was Julia Roberts. Julia smiled at me and took my hand to lead me to a small podium in the center of the room. I had to step over other people laying on blankets as we walked.
I stood on the listeners' side of the podium while Stephanie and Julia stood on the speakers' and we all clasped hands. I repeated each line Julia spoke, who then repeated it back to me, while she looked at Stephanie.
And I married them.
