I dreamt that Johnny Depp, playing the part of the Devil, was my father and Salma Hayek was my mother. Selma, still gorgeous, had reached the age of 30 and therefore too old for the Devil's bride. So, Johnny killed Salma and while he's doing it I go outside and water some beautiful flowers; the water from the hose uncovers a lovely young woman sleeping just beneath the dirt- she has blue eyes and black hair. She awakens (it's creepy but I'm not afraid) and turns out to be the younger sister of Salma Hayek and will now become the devils new, younger bride. Her name is Camilla. I am upset that my father is so callous towards my mother as to kill her while she's still beautiful only because she is thirty, but I accept it and get to know
Camilla. Camilla and I go to an Arabian bazaar and buy really cool earrings - and Camilla's hair keeps changing. We are amazing together and a man gets upset with me, pulls me by the arm, because my veil (we had to put on veils to go to bazaar) isn't on right. Camilla saves me. Together we joke about stupid men who think they can rule us.
Weird, huh.
