This was a wacky one. I dreamt that I was at work. One of my coworkers looks over at me and says, "You should see this." He's running this flash video, and it's an animated song sort of like that JibJab one... only it's talking about a guy's romantic interests as sort of a series of funny songs. A title came up, and it said... some name I can't remember, and then the song was like, "Healthy, wealthy, and..." kept going on good points and then I realized that it was something that Houdini had built, and this segment was about me. This coworker then showed me a blog he'd found that was Houdini's secret one, where he'd posted this flash video. It specifically said, "And D, don't go telling Adam about the url!"

"Nothing on Earth can hold HOUDINI a prisoner!"

At that point in the dream, Houdini wasn't around, but he showed up shortly after. The group of us were getting ready to go to lunch when the coworker who showed me the video turned on his screensaver- which he'd set now to be the flash thing. It started playing, and he's like, "Oh, let's all watch together!" My boss was there, everyone else. I ignored it and went to wash my hands in the sink in the room (doesn't exist in reality) which was next to Houdini's cubicle. He whispered, "Are you okay?" And I laughed and thought about saying, "Turnabout is fair play," but only said, "Yeah, I just think it's funny."

We all started walking to lunch, but we ended up instead in this weird... research lab for these engineered shark-like critters that killed anything in the water. The pool was half for us all to swim and hang out, and the other half was where these creatures were, and it was divided by a nylon mesh netting which seemed way too flimsy and scary. At one point Houdini was dangling his legs in the bad side of the pool because the sharks weren't in there, and I was thinking, "This won't end well."

Later on I ended up at a small gathering of people at someone's house. D was there, Amy was there, Jon was there... and a handful of other people who I forget. Oh! Right, well, Houdini was there. And they were all sort of talking about me when I showed up, and (ahh yes) this girl Kacy was there and she said that they'd been cracking all my passwords. I looked at Houdini kind of funny, and realized that... it wasn't him. It was this odd looking younger guy with bright blue eyes. So I go, "Umm, weren't your eyes brown?" And he made this scary smile at me, and his eyes turned blue to brown in the center and then back, and then his full eyes turned to look like flames, implying, "Don't mess with me," and then back to normal.

I realized that the whole thing was a fraud, that this guy had read my blog and assembled a false history and masqueraded as Houdini to people I know. It was fairly ridiculous, but the next part was even more so.
