I was moving a new shelf I had purchased into my room, having just finished constructing it in the living room. My brother was in my room, on the bottom bunk, lying sick in bed, with Mom tending to him. They were watching Jeopardy.
Being a little tired from all that work, I took a break to watch the show, now that the shelf was correctly placed in the room. There were two men with about $10,000 each, and one gay man on the right who had nothing except the dress he was wearing.
As I watched, the gay man correctly answered "What are the Himalayas" in response to "This mountain range is located just north of Eastern India," and so received $300 to put himself on the board. At this point, I noticed Alex Trebek was wearing a long blue wig and was also dressed in drag as a show of solidarity to the gay man.
Final Jeopardy started soon after. The final question was a fairly difficult question--only one of the $10,000 men was able to get it right--the guy who was in second, who was located in the middle, and thus getting it right won him the game.
The guy on the left who had lost then jumped up onto the middle guy's table, but only so that he could shake hands with the gay man without making contact with the new winner. He deliberately avoided shaking hands with the winner. At this point, a hockey fight broke out between the two $10,000 men.
At this point I wanted to check to see if anyone else was seeing this. As I was looking around I noticed that my Dad had begun putting his books on my shelf. He had already taken up two shelves and was presumably trying to steal more of my shelf space. MY shelf space. I asked my mother to yell at Dad for me and make him vacate my shelves.
Then I woke up. And I was stunned to discover that all of the above was a dream and therefore not real. It seemed so real...
