Opium Candy

I dreamed that Sokky and I had gone with her Hive-mind on a Wargaming convention. We were going with the group travelling to Melbourne or Sydney but we were going to mostly do shopping while there.

We travelled there in a rocket and booked into a very flash hotel. Then we went shopping. We found a bridal hosiery store which I wanted to look in. There was a secret escalator (which was in the middle of the room so not terribly secret) which lead to a room on the next floor up. It was very clandestine as the man running the place showed us up.

The room at the top was very white and plastic and was basically an opium den but for candy. People stood in rows not speaking to each other but feeding themselves candy from little plastic containers like you get at one of those "fill your own bag" candy shops. I stationed myself in front of the marshmallows and Sokky and I stayed for the allowed 5 minutes. Then we descended the escalator and left the shop. We must have paid at some point but I don't remember doing it.

Not sure what triggered this dream. Probably something to do with not spending money means less candy for Jenni. I have to get it in my dreams!
