I Had a Dream, I Had an Awesome Dream

by Tracy

Or, Amazon Women on the Moon is the defining film of my generation. That, and Bill and Ted.

Let me just start by saying that I’d already decided last night that I would write a post about my dream, my awesome dream only I had to make some tacos first and couldn’t get around to it right away and then I go check my email and see this:

I Had a Dream

By Ms. Alisa Bowman, who was my friend but now I think she is my friend that I am wildly competitive with and constantly measure myself against. This will either spur both of us to higher and higher heights until we are the dadgum queens of the MediaDrome or end very badly with both of us winding up being the spiteful old lady at the nursing home that nobody likes. It’s okay though, eventually some small child will wander in and teach us to love again.

So there is no way we can lose.

But back to me and my awesome dream. You know that lately I’ve been super busy because I’ve started freelancing and working on a variety of writing and marketing projects. I know, it’s crazy, right? People PAY me for this. ME. For THIS.

I’m working with a friend of mine and he’s got a pretty good sized client with a large project that I’m assisting him with. And yesterday, it hit me, would it not be the most amazing, awesome thing if we just tossed out everything we had been doing and start over modeling the whole thing on Amazon Women on the Moon. You know, so all of our ads and content are a tribute to AWotM which is a spoof.

A tribute of a spoof. Think about it. Making fun of things is so over, sincerity is the new irony. See now why people pay me?

Now, I know we’re on a “budget” but how expensive could it be to hire Rosanna Arquette and Arsenio Hall these days? David Allen Grier would do it for scale I think after he sees my blog – big fan of grody food, DAG is. Anyway, I think we could make this work.

Hehehehe, lamaze graduates.

PS of course that’s an affiliate link. I’d recommend AWotM for free, and have been for years, but you know, dude. Easy money. Win win. All right!

    So, OK, did you dream about coming up with the AWotM spoof or did you actually think it up in your awake brain? Because either way = awesome.

    JD, I’m not really sure these days. I learned how to type while sleeping while working the graveyard shift at FedEx so my boundaries between awake and asleep are perhaps not as clear as they are for most people.

    How did I miss this mention? Were you checking to see if I was really reading your posts closely? But wait! You must write about your dream so we can cross link!

    As for the spoof, I bet Arsinio is cheap these days, relatively speaking.

      See, I caught you!!!

      It just cracks me up how every time I have a good title or idea for a post, sure enough right before I write it I’ll check my reader or email and somebody else has written the exact same one.

      I am beginning to think I’m the source of all inspiration in the universe.

    What kind of marketing projects? I just started with a marketing company who specializes in mobile marketing. It’s definitely the future of reaching customers. Just an idea to look at when doing some marketing. Let me know if you have any questions about it.

    Thanks, I will. Right now, I’m mostly involved with writing the content for various promotional websites and a lot of grunt work involving same. It’s a great education, even if I felt lost my first week: “Oh sure I’ll get that social media matrix to you right away, let me go grab Keanu first and we’ll head off to fetch it”
